Answer:
Methane
Explanation:
The gas that you could keep in an outdoor storage tank in winter in Alaska is Methane.
The reason is the extreme low temperature during the winter. The boiling point of butane is 44 ºF ( -1ºC) and that of propane is a higher -43.6 º F but still within the range of average minimum winter temperature in Alaska (-50 ªF). Therefore we will have condensation in the tanks and not enough gas pressure.
Methane having a boling point of -259 ºF will not condense at the low wintertime temperatures in Alaska.
Answer:
A chemical bond is defined as the force which helps to bind more than two atoms in a molecule. There are different types of chemical bonding are present in molecules such as:
1) Ionic bonding: Because of the transfer of electrons it is present in ionic compounds. BaS is an example of ionic bonding which is containing some covalent character.
2) Covenant bonding: Because of the sharing of electrons it forms molecules. Rubber is the example of covalent bonding with some van der walls.
3) Metallic bonding: In the free state it is present in atoms of metal such as Brass is a good example of a metallic bonding because it is a metal alloy.
4) Van der walls bonding: In atoms, It includes repulsion and attraction. Solid xenon is the example of Van der wall bonding because it is an inert gas.
In this solution we are having two components i.e. NaCl and H₂O. So the %age mass of NaCl is calculated by following formula,
%age mass of NaCl = (Mass of NaCl / Mass of NaCl + Mass of H₂O) × 100 ------ (1)
Calculating Mass of NaCl at 50°C;
Solubility of NaCl was searched online and was found 36.69 g / 100 mL of water at 50 °C.
Calculating Mass of 100 mL H₂O at 50°C;
Density of H₂O at 50 °C is 0.988 g/ml, so for 100 mL
As,
Density = Mass / Volume
Mass = Density × Volume
Mass = 0.988 g/mL × 100 mL
Mass = 98.8 g
Putting Masses of NaCl and H₂O in eq. 1,
%age mass of NaCl = (36.69 g / 36.69 g + 98.8 g) × 100
%age mass of NaCl = (36.69 g / 135.49 g) × 100
%age mass of NaCl = 27.07 %
Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.
Explanation:
Atomic number of magnesium is 12 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 2. Whereas atomic number of sulfur is 16 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 6.
So, in order to attain stability a magnesium atom needs to lose its 2 valence electrons and a sulfur atom needs to gain two electrons to completely fill its octet.
Hence, magnesium on losing two electrons will acquire a +2 charge and thus, it becomes a cation. On the other hand, sulfur on gaining two electrons will acquire a -2 charge and thus, sulfur will become an anion.
Thus, we can conclude that in the reaction between magnesium and sulfur, the magnesium atoms become cations.
Answer:
A diamond is a pure substance because it is made of one element.
Explanation:
From the crystalline structure model of the diamond, we can see that we only have just one element represented by the green balls connected in a cross linked fashion to one another. Therefore, one can rightly conclude that this is a pure substance made up of one element.
In a pure substance, all parts are homogeneous and composition is definite.
