Answer:

Pressure

Explanation:

Pressure : It is defined as the force exerted on an object per unit area.

It can be defined as the thrust (compressive force acting perpendicularly to the surface of the body) acting per unit area.

Mathematical representation

If force F act upon an object and cross section area of an object is A.

Then , pressure= $\frac{Force}{Area}$

Unit of pressure: S.I unit of an object is pascal.

In gas cases, pressure is a exerted force on the wall of container per unit area of the wall.

Hence, the force of gas's outward push divided by the area of the walls of the container is the gas's pressure.

During an experiment, 95 grams of calcium carbonate reacted with an excess amount of hydrochloric acid. If the percent yield of

almond37 [142]

Answer:

Actual yield: 86.5 grams.

Explanation:

How many moles of formula units in 95 grams of calcium carbonate $\rm CaCO_3$ ?

Refer to a modern periodic table for relative atomic mass data:

Ca: 40.078;
C: 12.011;
O: 15.999.

Formula mass of $\rm CaCO_3$ :

$M(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{1\times 12.011}_{\rm C} + \underbrace{3\times 15.999}_{\rm O} = \rm 100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{CaCO_3})}{M(\mathrm{CaCO_3})} = \rm \frac{95\;g}{100.086\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 0.949184\;mol$ .

How many moles of $\rm CaCl_2$ will be produced?

The coefficient in front of $\rm CaCO_3$ in the chemical equation is the same as that in front of $\rm CaCl_2$ . That is:

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = 1$ .

$\displaystyle n(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3})\cdot \frac{n(\rm CaCl_2)}{n(\rm CaCO_3)} = n(\mathrm{CaCO_3}) = \rm 0.949184\;mol$ .

What's the theoretical yield of calcium chloride? In other words, what's the mass of $\rm 0.949184\;mol$ of $\rm CaCl_2$ ?

Again, refer to a periodic table for relative atomic data:

Ca: 40.078;
Cl: 35.45.

$M(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) = \underbrace{1\times 40.078}_{\rm Ca} + \underbrace{2\times 35.45}_{\rm Cl} = \rm 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{CaCl_2}) &= n(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\cdot M(\mathrm{CaCl_2})\\ &= \rm 0.949184\;mol\times 110.978\;g\cdot mol^{-1}\\ &= \rm 105.339\; g\end{aligned}$ .

What's the actual yield of calcium chloride?

$\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}}\times 100\%$ .

$\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\text{Actual Yield} &= \text{Theoretical Yield}\cdot \frac{\text{Percentage Yield}}{100\%}\\ &=\rm 105.339\; g \times \frac{82.15\%}{100\%}\\&= \rm 86.5\;g \end{aligned}$ .

B: The total thermal energy is greater in a large body of water than one much smaller

Explanation:

A large lake filled filled with cool water will have more thermal energy than smaller pond filled with warmer water because the total thermal energy is greater in a large body of water than one that is much smaller.

Thermal energy is a form of kinetic energy usually due to transfer of heat energy.

Amount of heat energy is dependent on the differences in temperature, mass and specific heat capacity of a body.

Both lake water will have the same specific heat capacity. Since larger body of water has more mass, it will possess more thermal energy.

DaniilM [7]

<span>Africa was more south and west and South America was more south and east of their current positions. I would say this would be because because South America and Africa used to be together in Gondwanaland millions of years ago and then apparently drifted apart as Wegener thought and then with the advent of plate tectonics it became apparent that the mid-Atlantic ridge runs between them and due to spreading along it Africa and S America got separated.</span>

Identify the element: 6 energy level, metallic, 82 election

Lady bird [3.3K]

<u>Answer</u>:-

Name of element = Lead

Symbol ♾ of Lead = Pb

Atomic no. = 82

Atomic mass = 207.2 amu

No. of protons = 82

No. of electrons = 82

Yes, lead(Pb) is a metallic element and certainly it has 6 electron shells which means 6 energy level.
