Answer:

Hot material near Earth's surface is more dense and sinks, and when it cools, it becomes less dense and rises.

Explanation:

Convection is a process by which less dense material rises and more dense material sinks near Earth's surface. Water, air, rocks and other materials expands when temperature rises and they become less dense. When the water is heated it becomes vapors and carries away thermal energy from the water.

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer:

The dissociation constant of phenol from given information is $9.34\times 10^{-11}$ .

Explanation:

The measured pH of the solution = 5.153

$C_6H_5OH\rightarrow C_6H_5O^-+H^+$

Initially c

At eq'm c-x x x

The expression of dissociation constant is given as:

$K_a=\frac{[C_6H_5O^-][H^+]}{[C_6H_5OOH]}$

Concentration of phenoxide ions and hydrogen ions are equal to x.

$pH=-\log[x]$

$5.153=-\log[x]$

$x=7.03\times 10^{-6} M$

$K_a=\frac{x\times x}{(c-x)}=\frac{x^2}{(c-x)}=\frac{(7.03\times 10^{-6} M)^2}{ 0.529 M-7.03\times 10^{-6} M}$

$K_a=9.34\times 10^{-11}$

The dissociation constant of phenol from given information is $9.34\times 10^{-11}$ .

Calculate the energy that is required to change 50.0 g ice at -30.0°C to a liquid at 73.0°C. The heat of fusion = 333 J/g, the h

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

There is 3.5*10^4 J of energy needed.

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of ice at -30.0 °C = 50.0 grams

Final temperature = 73.0 °C

The heat of fusion = 333 J/g

the heat of vaporization = 2256 J/g

the specific heat capacity of ice = 2.06 J/gK

the specific heat capacity of liquid water = 4.184 J/gK

Step 2: Calculate the heat absorbed by ice

q = m*c*(T2-T1)

⇒ m = the mass of ice = 50.0 grams

⇒ c = the heat capacity of ice = 2.06 J/gK = 2.06 J/g°C

⇒ T2 = the fina ltemperature of ice = 0°C

⇒ T1 = the initial temperature of ice = -30.0°C

q = 50.0 * 2.06 J/g°C * 30 °C

q = 3090 J

Step 3: Calculate heat required to melt the ice at 0°C:

q = m*(heat of fusion)

q = 50.0* 333J/g

q = 16650 J

Step 4: Calculate the heat required to raise the temperature of water from 0°C to 73.0°C

q = m*c*(T2-T1)

⇒ mass = 50.0 grams

⇒ c = the specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

⇒ ΔT = T2-T1 = 73.0 - 0 = 73 °C

q = 50.0 * 4.184 * 73.0 = 15271.6 J

Step 5: Calculate the total energy

qtotal = 3090 + 16650 + 15271.6 = 35011.6 J = 3.5 * 10^4 J

There is 3.5*10^4 J of energy needed.

Explain why an atom has a neutral charge

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

Atoms are neutral because they have equal numbers of protons (positively charged) and electrons (negatively charged). If an atom gains or loses one or more electrons, it becomes an ion.
