Answer:-  0.88

Solution:- Masses of silver and copper metals are given and we are asked to calculate the percentage of silver in the alloy.

mass percent of Ag = (\frac{mass of Ag}{mass of alloy})*100

Mass of Ag = 17.6 g

mass of Cu = 2.40 g

mass of alloy = 17.6 g + 2.40 g = 20.0 g

Let's plug in the values in the formula:

mass percentage of Ag = (\frac{17.6}{20.0})*100

mass percentage of Ag = 88%

So, the mass percentage of silver in sterling silver is 88% and in decimal form it is 0.88.

5. Calculate the decrease in temperature when 6.00 L at 20.0 °C is compressed to 4.00 L.
Kazeer [188]

Answer: 195.3 K

Explanation: Use Charles Law to get T2

Charles Law V1 / T1 = V2 / T2

Derive the equation to find T2

T2 = V2T1 / V1

Convert temperature into K

T1 = 20.0 °C + 273 = 293 K

Substitute the values:

4.00 L x 293 K / 6.00 L = 195. 3 K

7.In which state of matter molecules have more energy to vibrate.​
viva [34]

Answer:

Solid, liquid or gas. So there is movement no matter the state. The key variable is density. The higher the density the less movement. In solids the motion can be so small it's very hard to measure. Gas on the other hand is easy the motion being large. Bear in mind temperature plays a big role. Higher temps bring faster motion. Finally the pressure of the gas brings about less motion the higher it is as the molecules are closer together & can't move as much.

An atom of which element has the greatest attraction for the electrons in a bond with a hydrogen atom?
Nadusha1986 [10]
The question can be changed into a new form:
Which element has the most negative electron affinity, or attraction for electrons? halogens have the highest electron affinities, and thus are more attracted to the electrons in the Hydrogen atom than any element in their respective periods.
In this case all the following choices are in the same period, thus Cl or Chlorine is the answer as it is a halogen.

Calculate the molarity 20ml of 3.5 m kci in to a final volume of 100 ml​
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

Molarity =  0.7 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of KCl = 20 mL ( 0.02 L)

Molarity = 3.5 M

Final volume = 100 mL (0.1 L)

Molarity in 100 mL = ?

Solution:

Molarity = number of moles of solute / volume in litter.

First of all we will determine the number of moles of KCl available.

Number of moles = molarity × volume in litter

Number of moles = 3.5 M × 0.02 L

Number of moles = 0.07 mol

Molarity in 100 mL.

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Molarity =  0.07 mol /0.1 L

Molarity =  0.7 M
