Answer:
             CaCO₃ built up in hot water pipes

Explanation:

The hardness of water is classified as;

Permanent Hard Water:
                                     In this the mineral content cannot be removed by boiling. This water contains mainly following,

                                        Calcium Sulfate  CaSO₄

                                        Calcium Chloride   CaCl₂

                                        Magnesium Sulfate   MgSO₄

                                        Magnesium Chloride   MgCl₂

These salts does not precipitate out on heating water.

Temporary Hard Water:
                                     In this water the mineral content can be removed by boiling. This water contains mainly following,

                                        Calcium Bicarbonate  Ca(HCO₃)₂

                                        Calcium Carbonate  CaCO₃

                                        Magnesium Bicarbonate   Mg(HCO₃)₂

                                        Magnesium Carbonate  MgCO₃

These salts does not precipitate out on heating water. i.e.

                Ca(HCO₃)₂    -------heat------>    CaCO₃  +  CO₂  +  H₂O

The CaCO₃ are formed in the form of scales.

Result:
           Hence, we can say that that CaCO₃ built up in hot water pipes.

In the mathematical equation showing that volume (V) divided by temperature (T) remains equal to a constant (k), volume and temp
NARA [144]

Answer:

Directly  

Explanation:

\dfrac{V}{T} = k

If V increases, then T must also increase to keep the same ratio.

If V decreases, then T must also decrease to keep the same ratio.

V and T are directly proportional, because a change in one always causes a change in the other and the changes are in the same ratio. The constant k is called the proportionality constant.

Why would a scientist method of data collection change based on where they conduct their experiment?
serious [3.7K]

Answer: scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis.

Explanation:

When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a theory.

How are the different colors generated by the flames? A. proton transitions B. reactions between different atoms C. electronic t
attashe74 [19]

Answer: C

Explanation:

According to Neils Bohr, atoms contain electrons which are arranged in energy levels. The energy levels proceed from the lowest to the highest. When energy is supplied to an atom,it moves from lower to higher energy levels. The higher energy level is known as the excited state. Excited states are short lived and atoms quickly return to ground state with emission of the absorbed energy in the form of visible light. This visible light must have one of the seven colours observed in the visible spectrum; Red, orange, yellow, indigo, blue, green, violet. Energy required for this excitation is supplied by heating the substance in a flame.

When the glucose solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unknown solu
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

The unknown solution had the higher concentration.

Explanation:

When two solutions are separated by a semi-permeable membrane, depending on the concentration gradient between the two solutions, there is a tendency for water molecules to move across the semi-permeable in order to establish an equilibrium concentration between the two solutions. This movement of water molecules across a semi-permeable membrane in response to a concentration gradient is known as osmosis. In osmosis, water molecules moves from a region of lower solute concentration or higher water molecules concentration to a region of higher solute concentration or lower water molecules concentration until equilibrium concentration is attained.

Based on the observation that when the glucose solution described in part A is connected to an unknown solution via a semipermeable membrane, the unknown solution level rises, it means that water molecules have passed from the glucose solution through the semipermeable membrane into the unknown solution. Therefore, the solution has a higher solute concentration than the glucose solution.
