Sesh wants to create a device to transmit an electrical current. He has the following materials: pure water (H2O), brass (Cu3Zn2

) foil, solid calcium chloride (CaCl2), solid sugar (C12H22O11), pure methane (CH4), and a Bunsen burner. Describe two ways he could use these materials to transmit electricity. Assume that he has access to all necessary glassware and other equipment. Explain your choices using the properties of ionic, covalent, and metallic substances.

Use the brass foil to carry the current, because metals conduct electricity well in the solid state.


Dissolve the calcium chloride in water, because ionic compounds conduct electricity well when dissolved.


Pure water, sugar, or methane are not useful because they are covalent compounds and do not conduct an electric current.

Here are two ways how he<span> could use these materials to transmit electricity: 

The first one is to carry the current due to the fact that metals conduct electricity in a needed condition only when they are solid.And since dissolved ionic compounds are good for conducting electricity - make a dissolving. Such materials as methane, water and sugar are not suitable as they are covalent compounds, that, as you know can not conduct an electric current.

Do hope it will help you!</span>

Complete combustion of a 0.600-g sample of a compound in a bomb calorimeter releases 24.0 kJ of heat. The bomb calorimeter has a
coldgirl [10]

The final temperature, t₂ = 30.9 °C

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

24.0 kJ of heat = 24,000 J

Mass of calorimeter = 1.3 kg = 1300 g

Cs = 3.41 J/g°C

t₁= 25.5 °C

Required

The final temperature, t₂

Solution

Q = m.Cs.Δt

Q out (combustion of compound) = Q in (calorimeter)

24,000 = 1300 x 3.41 x (t₂-25.5)

t₂ = 30.9 °C

Which of the following will increase entropy in a reaction?
Lapatulllka [165]

B. Heating up the reaction will increase the entropy of a reaction.

<h3>What is entropy?</h3>

Entropy is the measure of the degree of disorderliness of a system.

Entropy is also the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work.

S = ΔH/T

where;

  • S is entropy
  • ΔH is energy input
  • T is  temperature

Entropy increases in reactions in which the total number of product molecules is greater than the total number of reactant molecules.

However, entropy increases as temperature increases. Thus, heating up the reaction will increase the entropy of a reaction.

Heating by direct contact between particles is called ____________​
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

conduction

Explanation:

Conduction is the transfer of heat between substances that are in direct contact with each other. ... Conduction occurs when a substance is heated, particles will gain more energy, and vibrate more. These molecules then bump into nearby particles and transfer some of their energy to them.

Three mixtures were prepared from three very narrow molar mass distribution polystyrene samples with molar masses of 10,000, 30,
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

(a). 46,666.7 g/mol; 78,571.4 g/mol

(b). 86950g/mol; 46,666.7 g/mol.

(c). 86950g/mol; 43,333.33 g/mol

Explanation:

So, we are given the molar masses for the three samples as: 10,000, 30,000 and 100,000 g mol−1.

Thus, the equal number of molecule in each sample = ( 10,000 + 30,000 + 100,000 ) / 3 = 46,666.7 g/mol.

The average molar mass = [ ( 10,000)^2 + (30,000)^2 + 100,000)^2] ÷ 10,000 + 30,000 + 100,000 = 78,571. 4 g/mol.

(b). The equal masses of each sample = 3/[ ( 1/ 10,000) + (1/30,000 ) + (1/100,000) ] = 20930.23 g/mol.

Average molar mass = ( 10,000 + 30,000 + 100,000 ) / 3 = 46,666.7 g/mol.

(c). Equal masses of the two samples = (0.145 × 10,000) + (0.855 × 100,000)/ 0.145 + 0.855 = 86950g/mol.

The weight average molar mass = 1.7 + 10,000 + 100,000/ 1.7 + 1 = 43,333.33 g/mol.
