Answer: The metal gets distorted when it is subjected to pressure, such as a blow from a hammer.

Explanation:

A blow from the hammer on the metal is actually applying a high pressure that causes a strain into the metal.

Due to this strain, the atoms of metals get compressed resulting in the formation of a large force which will distort the metal. Therefore, the atoms of metal will move sides apart from each other.

What is the solution's freezing point: 15 g of CH4N2O (Molar mass = 60.055 g/mol) in 200. g of H2O? (Kf = 1.86 (°C·kg)/mol)

AURORKA [14]

Ok to answer this question we firsst need to fin the number of mol of Urea (CH4N2O). to do this we simply :

1 mol of urea =15/60.055 = 0.25mol

therefore 200g of water contain 0.25mol

the next step is to determine the malality of our solution in 200g of water, to do this we say:

200 g = 1Kg/1000g = 0.2kg

therefor 0.25mol/0.2Kg = 1.25mol/kg

and from the equation:

we know that i = 1

we are given Kf

b is the molality that we just calculated

therefore;

the solutions freezing point is -2.325°C

What is the pH of a solution of 1 x 10-5 M NaOH? Is the solution acidic or basic?

Anna007 [38]

Answer: to calculate pH use -log[H+] or - log[OH-]..the solution is basic as the “NaOH” is attached to a hydroxide.Since we need to find the pH (per hydrogen) and not the pOH( per hydroxide) we need to find the pOH of the substance first then we subtract that by 14 so we can arrive at the pH of the substance.

Explanation: So -log( 1 x 10^(-5)) = 5 which is the pOH.Now we subtract that by 14 which gives us -9 and now you’d multiply that by -1 bcuz we can’t have a negative so the pH of the substance is 9

A synthesis reaction takes place when carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen gas (H2) react to form methanol (CH3OH). How many grams

kakasveta [241]

Answer:

A. 3.2grams

Explanation:

First we need to get the chemical equation for this reaction:

CO + H₂ → CH₃OH

We then need to balance the equation:

CO + <u>2</u>H₂ → CH₃OH

Our next step is to first convert our given into moles. We do this by figuring out first how many grams of each substance there are in 1 mole by adding up the atomic mass of each element in each substance.

Carbon(1) Oxygen(1)

CO = 12.011(1) + 15.999(1) = 28.01 g/mole

Hydrogen(2)

H₂ = 1.008(2) = 2.016g/mole

We can then use this to determine how many moles of each reactant we have given the mass.

$CO = 2.8g\\2.8g\times\dfrac{1mole}{28.01g}=0.1moles\\\\H_{2}=0.50g\\\\0.50g\times\dfrac{1mole}{2.016g}=0.469moles$

So here we have our new given:

0.1 moles of CO

0.496 moles of H₂

We then need to determine how much product we produce with our given.

According to our chemical equation we can assume that:

For every 1 mole of CO we can produce 1 mole of CH₃OH

Fore every 2 moles of H₂ we can produce 1 mole of CH₃OH

Using this ratio we can determine how much product each reactant will produce by using the ratios:

$0.1 moles of CO\times\dfrac{1moleofCH_{3}OH}{1moleofCO}=0.1moles of CH_{3}OH\\\\ 0.496molesofH_{2}\times\dfrac{1moleofCH_{3}OH}{2molesofH_{2}}=0.248molesofCH_{3}OH$

Now notice that they are not equal. The reactant that produces the least amount of product will be our limiting reactant. The limiting reactant determines the amount of product that is produced, because once it is completely used up, the reaction stops. So in this case, the amount of CH₃OH that is produced is 0.10 moles.

Now we need to figure out how many this is in grams. To do that we need to find out how many grams of CH₃OH there are in 1 mole of CH₃OH.

Carbon (1) Hydrogen(4) Oxygen(1)

CH₃OH = 12.001(1) + 1.008(4) + 15.999(1)

= 12.001 + 4.032 + 15.999 = 32.032g/mole

We then use this for converting:

$0.10 moles\times\dfrac{32.032g}{1mole}=3.2032g$

So the reaction will produce 3.2032g of CH₃OH or 3.2g of CH₃OH
