Infer if the mineral Talc would be a good choice when building a statue outside. Justify your answer with your knowledge of mine

Talc is not a good choice when building a statue because Talc is one of the weakest minerals with a hardness of 1 on the Mohs Scale since it could be scratched by a fingernail, which means that when people build a statue with Talc, it could be easily broken down. There would be a better mineral to use, which could be marble because it could last longer than sandstone and is a lot more sturdier than Talc. Marble also could withstand the test of time better than some of the other minerals.

A 0.0200 m nacl solution was formed when 38.0 grams of nacl was dissolved in enough water. what was the total volume of the solu
Lostsunrise [7]

Total volume of the solution formed will be 32.5 liters

Given:

Molarity of solution = 0.0200 m

mass of nacl = 38.0 grams

To Find:

total volume of the solution

Solution: Molarity is defined as the amount of solute present in 1 L of solution. The equation used to determine molarity of the solution follows:

M = given mass of nacl/molar mass of nacl*1/volume of solution

volume of solution = given mass/molar mass*1/molarity

volume = 38/58.5*1/0.02 = 32.5

Hence, volume of solution = 32.5 litres

Exothermic reactions release energy. Where is the energy used for these reactions to occur stored? .
Tanya [424]

Answer:

In the chemical bonds.

Explanation:

There are different types of chemical bonds, some store a TON of energy while others do not store as much. You can think of it like this: for bonds with low energy, it takes a LOT of force to pull them apart, meaning they are strong bonds. However, this way, you have to put energy into them to break the bonds and form a chemical reaction. This is an endothermic reaction, a reaction that absorbs heat from its surroundings.

Instead, bonds in exothermic reactions are BEGGING to form a more stable bond, and hence store a lot of potential energy. Due to the difficulty of maintaining these bonds, there is a lot of energy put into them. If you break them, however, (exothermic reaction) the energy is released, and hence the exothermic reaction happens.

Hope this helped. Please give Brainliest! :>

hydrogen and oxygene react to form water l. How many molecules of O2 are required to produce 0.6 of H20​
user100 [1]

Answer:

It is required 0.3 molecules of O2 to produce 0.6 molecules of H2O

Explanation:

The water´s formation reaction is: 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O

This reaction shows the molecular O2:H2O ratio: 1:2.

Then, if we want to know how many molecules of O2 are required to produce 0.6 of H20​, it is necessary calculate as it showed next:

0.6 molecules H2O * (1 molecula O2 / 2 molecules H2O)= 0.3 molecule O2
