Why does galium melt

Chemistry
1 answer:
levacccp [35]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Like most other metals, Gallium is solid at room temperature (or liquid if it is too hot in your room). But, if it is held [in hands] for long enough, it melts in your hands, and doesn't poison you like Mercury would. This is because of its unusually low melting point of (~29 degree Centigrade).

- It melts once it reaches its melting point.

Given that naphthalene is insoluble in water and sublimes easily upon heating, describe two different methods by which you could
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]
<span>Based on solubilities you can separate naphthalene and NaCl by adding the mixture to a volume of water. NaCl is highly soluble in water, so it will dissolve completely, while the insoluble naphthalen will remain solid. Next your filter the solution, washing the solid with pure water to eliminate all the NaCl from it. The NaCl will remain is solution, and you can obtain it by evaporating the water. The other method to separate naphthalene and NaCl is based on sublimation property of naphthalene: you can permit that naphthalene sublimes freely or use vacuum to accelerate the process. You use a closed vessel to catch all the gas, while the NaCl will remain solid.</span>

Does sound travel faster in a warm room or a cold room?
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

Sound is vibrations that travel through a medium, and which are then converted into electrical signals by our brain so that we interpret them as a noise that we hear. These vibrations consist of particles colliding with each other (this is why sound cannot travel through space; there are no particles). At warmer temperatures, the particles that make up air will move faster, so these collisions will happen more frequently. Therefore the vibrations occur more quickly, so sound travels faster and reaches our ears in a shorter amount of time.

The speed of sound can travel faster in hot air than it can in cold air. This is because the molecules of air can move even faster and the vibrations of the sound wave can transmit faster. Sound is a type of mechanical wave, meaning that it requires a medium to transmit energy. Mediums are any substance that has mass and takes up space, from the air in the room to the metal atoms in an iron fence.

hope that helps :)

How many grams of nitrogen and oxygen are required to make 85 grams to trinitrogen tetroxide?
saw5 [17]

mass of N₂ = 25.76 g

mass of O₂  = 58.88 g

Explanation:

Nitrogen (N₂) will react with oxygen (O₂) to form trinitrogen tetroxide (N₂O₄).

N₂ + 2 O₂ → N₂O₄

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of N₂O₄ = 85 / 92 = 0.92 moles

Knowing the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if       1 moles of N₂ react with 2 moles of O₂ to produce 1 mole of N₂O₄

then X moles of N₂ react with Y moles of O₂ to produce 0.92 moles of N₂O₄

X = (1 × 0.92) / 1 = 0.92 moles of N₂

Y = (2 × 0.92) / 1 = 1.84 moles of O₂

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of N₂ = 0.92 × 28 = 25.76 g

mass of O₂  = 1.84 × 32 = 58.88 g

Which of the following is likely to occur if more reactants are added to a reaction that is at chemical equilibrium?
Marat540 [252]
<h3><u>Answer:</u></h3>

The reaction will shift to the right (toward the products)

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Le Chatelier's principle states that changing a factor such as concentration, temperature, or pressure of a reaction at equilibrium will cause the reaction to shift in the direction that counteracts the effect of that change.
  • <u>Therefore, when more reactants are added to a reaction at equilibrium shift  the reaction shifts to the right to make more products.</u>
