denpristay [2]2 years ago
5 0

Fluorite is harder than gypsum but softer than apatite. Thus, the correct option is B.

<h3>What is the hardness of any element?</h3>

The hardness of any element may be defined as the capability of a material to oppose the process of deformation and remains in actual shape precisely.  

According to the table of hardness scales by Mohs, the increasing order of given hardness of given elements is as follows:

Gypsum < Fluorite < Apatite.

Therefore, Fluorite is harder than gypsum but softer than apatite. Thus, the correct option is B.

In the reaction below, 22 g of H2S with excess
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

24%

Explanation:

From the question, the limiting reactant is H2S.

The reaction equation is;

2H2S + O2 → 2S + 2H2O

Number of moles of H2S reacted = 22g/34 g/mol = 0.647 moles

According to the reaction equation;

2 moles of H2S yields 2 moles of sulphur

0.647 moles of H2S yields 0.647 moles of sulphur

So;

Theoretical yield of sulphur = 0.647 moles * 32 g/mol = 20.7 g

Actual yield = 5 g

% yield = actual yield/theoretical yield * 100

% yield =5 g/20.7 g * 100

% yield = 24%

A student dissolves 4.5 G of sodium chloride into 75 grams of water which of the following statements is correct regarding the r
Jobisdone [24]
"The vapor pressure will decrease and the boiling temperature will increase." When sodium chloride is added to water, the vapor pressure above the resulting salt solution is less than the vapor pressure above the pure water, and the boiling point of the salt solution will be greater than the boiling point of pure water. This results from the introduction of salt molecules to water, in which the salt solution needs a higher temperature for the vapor pressure to be equal to the pressure of the atmosphere.
