Why flame tests are not useful for all elements?

Answer: Not all elements give out flame colors

Explanation:

The flame test has limitations such as

The test cannot detect low concentrations of most ions. The brightness of the signal varies from one sample to another. For example, the yellow emission from sodium is much brighter than the red emission from the same amount of lithium. Impurities or contaminants affect the test results

What is flame test?

A flame test is an analytical procedure used in chemistry to detect the presence of certain elements, primarily metal ions, based on each element's characteristic emission spectrum. The color of flames in general also depends on temperature

How many moles are there in 5.30 x 1024 atoms of silver?

Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

The mass of

4.6

24

atoms of silver is approximately 820 g.

Explanation:

In order to determine the mass of a given number of atoms of an element, identify the equalities between moles of the element and atoms of the element, and between moles of the element and its molar mass.

If you were to conduct an experiment to answer the question, "Does the volume of a caffeinated drink affect your reaction time?”

Ann [662]

Answer:

A Type of Drink

Explanation:

A controlled variable remains constant throughout the experiment.

In such experiment, you'd test the volume of one single caffeinated drink. You'd have to use the same type of drink every trial.

Does it take more, less, or the same amount of heat to melt 1.0 kg of ice at 0°C, or to bring 1.0 kg of liquid water at 0°C to t

Murljashka [212]

Answer : It takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.

Solution :

The process involved in this problem are :

$(1):H_2O(s)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(0^oC)\\\\(2):H_2O(l)(0^oC)\rightarrow H_2O(l)(100^oC)$

Now we have to calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed in both processes.

<u>For process 1 :</u>

$Q_1=m\times \Delta H_{fusion}$

where,

$Q_1$ = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water or ice = 1.0 Kg

$\Delta H_{fusion}$ = enthalpy change for fusion = $3.35\times 10^5J/Kg$

Now put all the given values in $Q_1$ , we get:

$Q_1=1.0Kg\times 3.35\times 10^5J/Kg=3.35\times 10^5J$

<u>For process 2 :</u>

$Q_2=m\times c_{p,l}\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

where,

$Q_2$ = amount of heat absorbed = ?

m = mass of water = 1.0 Kg

$c_{p,l}$ = specific heat of liquid water = $4186J/Kg^oC$

$T_1$ = initial temperature = $0^oC$

$T_2$ = final temperature = $100^oC$

Now put all the given values in $Q_2$ , we get:

$Q_2=1.0Kg\times 4186J/Kg^oC\times (100-0)^oC$

$Q_2=4.186\times 10^5J$

From this we conclude that, $Q_1$ that means it takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.

Hence, the it takes less amount of heat to metal 1.0 Kg of ice.
