Why is the melting point of a network solid so high? How is this related to what a network solid is?

1 answer:

4 0

I believe that the answer to the question provided above is that molecules in solid are compact and are connected. It requires huge energy to move it, thus requires high temperature.
Hope my answer would be a great help for you. If you have more questions feel free to ask here at Brainly.

Pb(OH)Cl, one of the lead compounds used in ancient Egyptian cosmetics, was prepared from PbO according to the following recipe:

sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

8.59 g

2.25 g

Explanation:

According to the given situation the calculation of grams of PbO and grams of NaCL is shown below:-

Moles of Pb(OH)CL is

$= \frac{Mass}{Molar\ mass}$

$= \frac{10.0 g}{259.65g / mol}$

= 0.0385 mol

Mass of PbO needed is

$= 0.385mol Pb(OH) Cl\times \frac{1 mol PbO}{1molpb (OH) cl} \times \frac{223.2g PbO}{1mol PbO}$

After solving the above equation we will get

= 8.59 g

Mass of NaCL needed is

$= \frac{1mol\ NaCl}{1molPb\ (OH)Cl} \times \frac{58.45NaCl}{1mol NaCl}$

After solving the above equation we will get

= 2.25 g

Therefore we have applied the above formula.

A compound is 40.0% c, 6.70% h, and 53.3% o by mass. assume that we have a 100.-g sample of this compound. the molecular formula

atroni [7]

When you have 100 g of compound, then based on the percentages given, there are 40.0 g C, 6.70 g H, and 53.3 g O. Convert those to moles:

C: 40.0 g / 12.0 = 3.33 moles of C
H: 6.70 g / 1.01 = 6.63 moles of H 
O: 53.3 / 16.0 = 3.33 moles of O

Dividing by the smallest (3.33), we get a C:H:O mole ratio of 1:2:1
So, The empirical formula is CH2O.
Now, That formula has a molar mass of [12.0 + 2(1.0) + 16.0] = 30.0

And we are given it's molar mass is = 240

So, no. of units of CH2O = 240 / 30 = 8

8 x CH2O = C8H16O8, and that is the molecular formula.

$C_8H_{16}O_8$
