It is asking how floating ice would affect you in the world you live on (obviously) but in the sense that you don’t live near an ocean the biggest impact of floating ice is the ice in your water. If you were to be on a ship or near a colder ocean, then icebergs would affect you in that way.

Water is one of the few substances which expand in volume when frozen, compared to liquid. Usually substances condense when cooled, but at the point of freezing, when liquid water becomes solid ice, the molecules lock into a matrix in which there is more space between molecules - ice expands! This is why ice floats on liquid water.

It is this miracle which has shaped the planet and allowed life to thrive. Expansion of ice is responsible for much land-shaping erosion on land, the heaving off of boulders from mountain tops. And the floating of ice on lakes, rivers and oceans - if the frozen water was indeed more dense than liquid water, it would sink and pile up in the cold depths. There would be no life thriving under the ice, overwintering. It would all eventually freeze solid, and all the life forms with it.

___________ reactions form predominately or exclusively one enantiomer. ____________ is the addition of a single oxygen atom to
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

1) <u>Stereo-selective (or enantioselective)</u> reactions form predominately or exclusively one enantiomer.

2) Epoxidation is the addition of a single oxygen atom to an alkene to form an epoxide.

3) <u>Hydrogenation (or reduction)</u> of an alkene forms an alkane by addition of H₂.

4) <u>Dihydroxylation</u> is the addition of two hydroxy groups to a double forming, a 1,2-diol or glycol.

5) <u>oxidative</u> cleavage of an alkene breaks both the σ and π bonds of the double bond to form two carbonyl groups.

6)  <u>Regioselective</u> reactions form predominately or exclusively one constitutional isomer.

7)  <u>Syn</u> dihydroxylation results when an alkene is treated KMnO4 or OsO4, where each reagent adds two oxygen atoms to the same side of the double bond.

1.24 moles of magnesium arsenate are dissolved in 1.74 kg of solution. Calculate the molality of the solution.
aleksklad [387]

Answer:

Molality of the solution = 0.7294 M

Explanation:

Given:

Number of magnesium arsenate = 1.24 moles

Mass of solution = 1.74 kg

Find:

Molality of the solution

Computation:

Molality of the solution = Mole of solute / Mass of solution = 1.74 kg

Molality of the solution = 1.24 / 1.7

Molality of the solution = 0.7294 M

A substance has a volume of 10.0 cm3 and a mass of 89 grams. What is its density?
AlladinOne [14]
8.9 g/cm3 since density equals mass/volume or m/v you just divide 89 by 10 to get 8.9
