3 0

Metals like sodium, potassium, magnesium, etc. are extracted by electrolysis of their chlorides in molten state.

These metals are not extracted by reduction of their oxides with carbon because:

Carbon has less affinity for oxygen than these metals

Carbon is a weaker reducing agent than these metals

These metals easily form oxides with oxygen, their oxides are very stable. Affinity to the oxygen is one the greatest of all elements.

Reducing agent is element or compound who loose electrons in chemical reaction. Sodium, potassium, calcium and magnesium are very strong reducing agents because they easily loose one or two valence electrons.

Electrolysis is a chemical methode that uses electric currents for chemical reactions.

A tank contains 200 gallons of water in which 300 grams of salt is dissolved. A brine solution containing 0.4 kilograms of salt

Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

<h3>Therefore, after long period of time 80kg of salt will remain in tank</h3>

Explanation:

given amount of salt at time t is A(t)

initial amount of salt =300 gm =0.3kg

=>A(0)=0.3

rate of salt inflow =5*0.4= 2 kg/min

rate of salt out flow =5*A/(200)=A/40

rate of change of salt at time t , dA/dt= rate of salt inflow- ratew of salt outflow

$dA/dt=2-(A/40)\\\\dA=2dt-(A/40)dt\\\\dA+(A/40)dt=2dt$

integrating factor

$=e^{\int\limits (1/40) \, dt}$

integrating factor $=e^{(1/40)t}$

multiply on both sides by $=e^{(1/40)t}$

$dAe^{(1/40)t}+(A/40)e^{(1/40)t} dt =2e^{(1/40)t}t\\\\(Ae^{(1/40)t})=2e^{(1/40)t}t$

integrate on both sides

$\int\limits(Ae^{(1/40)t})=\int\limits2e^{(1/40)t}dt\\\\(Ae^{(1/40)t})=2*40e^{(1/40)t}+C\\\\A=80+(C/e^{(1/40)t})\\\\A(0)=0.3\\\\0.3=80+(C/e^{(1/40)t}^*^0)\\\\0.3=80+(C/1)\\\\C=0.3-80\\\\C=-79.7\\\\A(t)=80-(79.7/e^{(1/40)t})$

after long period of time means t - > ∞

${t \to \infty}\\\\ \lim_{t \to \infty} A_t \\\\ \lim_{t \to \infty} (80)-(79/{e^{(1/40)t}}\\\\=80-(0)\\\\=80$

<h3>Therefore, after long period of time 80kg of salt will remain in tank</h3>

A partir de que materiales se obtienen los metales? en que se diferencian?

Anon25 [30]

Los metales son materiales que se obtienen a partir de minerales que forman parte de las rocas. Por ejemplo, el metal hierro se extrae de minerales de hierro como la magnetita o la siderita.

Explain why the coin is able to float on top of the water in this glass.

zubka84 [21]

Surface tension is the result of water molecules pulling inward with a strong attractive force.
The attractive force brings the molecules on the surface of the water close together.
The attractive force causes the surface of the water to be drawn toward the water molecules beneath the surface. <span>
Since there are no water molecules above the surface, there are uneven forces. This causes surface tension, allowing the coin to float on the water’s surface.</span>

Explain how water might have two different densities

MrMuchimi

Answer:

I think this is it

Water can have two different densities if it has substances dissolved in it. ... When liquid water freezes it becomes solid water or ice, which is less dense than liquid water. The fact that solid water (ice) is less dense than liquid water is evident in the way ice floats in a glass of water.
