Answer:

when silver articles exposed to air silver racts with Sulphur present in the atmosphere and form a black layer of silver sulphide on the surface. copper articles get tarnished by reacting with air and water. due to this, a layer is formed over copper vessels.

Explanation: When silver is exposed to sulfur-containing gases in the air, it discolours and then darkens as it reacts with the gas to form a surface layer of tarnish If a silver object is to be kept from tarnishing, it must be protected from sulfur-containing gases.

Gennadij [26K]

Heat can be transferred from one object to another in 3 different ways.

1) Conduction : This is the mode of transfer of heat through solid medium.

Example : A metal rod getting hot when hold over a flame.

2) Convection : This is the mode of transfer of heat through liquids

Example : Boiling of water.

3) Radiation : This type of heat transfer does not require any medium.

Example : When we stand close to a campfire, we feel warmer. Here the heat travels through air.

In the given problem, when a person gets into a car with hot black leather, his skin comes in contact with the hot object. Here the heat gets transferred through the skin which is a solid medium.

Therefore this is an example of conduction.

ASAP , 8.81 g Carbon
xz_007 [3.2K]

The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇

The molecular formula : C₁₀Cl₃₅

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

8.81 g Carbon

91.2 g Chlorine

Molar Mass: 1362.5 g/mol

Required

The empirical formula and molecular formula

Solution

Mol ratio :

C = 8.81 g : 12.011 g/mol =0.733

Cl = 91.2 g : 35,453 g/mol = 2..572

Divide by 0.733

C : Cl = 1 : 3.5 = 2 : 7

The empirical formula : C₂Cl₇

(The empirical formula)n = the molecular formula

(C₂Cl₇)n = 1362.5

(2x12.011+7x35.453)n=1362.5

(272.193)n=1362.5

n = 5

lara [203]
The known constant of water is that it freezes at 0 degrees Celsius and boils at 100 degrees Celsius. it can be determined that because of the solute added the water becomes a compound meaning it no longer has the constants of pure water hence the difference in freezing point
