What forms of energy are involved when snow on a mountain breaks loose, resulting in an avalanche?

1 answer:

4 0

<span>During an avalanche, potential energy of the snow on the mountain is converted to kinetic energy as the snow cascades down. The conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy is due to the compacted atoms in the snow which will accumulate other snow resulting to a bigger snow that causes avalanche.</span>

What is the molarity of HCl if 34.81 mL of a solution of HCl contain 0.3297 g of HCl?

Temka [501]

Answer:

0.2598 M

Explanation:

Molarity is mol/L, so we have to convert the grams to moles and the mL to L. To convert between grams and moles you need the molar mass of the compound, which is 36.46g/mol.

$0.3297gHCl*\frac{1molHCl}{36.46gHCL} = 0.00904279 mol HCl$

$34.81 mLHCl * \frac{1L}{1000L} = 0.03481 L HCl$

$\frac{0.00904279molHCl}{0.03481 L HCl} = 0.25977554 mol/L$

Round to the lowest number of significant figures = 0.2598 M

In a lab, silver nitrate,AgNO₃, is dissolved in water until no solid is observed in the container. Then, a solution of sodium ch

leva [86]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: A, C, E

Explanation:

After reading the information given, we can conclude that both reactants react to form a new solid product and another product that do not precipitate.

The reaction is:

AgNO₃ + NaCl ⇒ AgCl + NaNO₃

a. Formation of a solid indicates that a chemical reaction occurred This option is correct, precipitation indicates that a changed occurred in the solution due to a chemical reaction.

b. The initial disappearance of silver nitrate in water indicates a chemical reaction occurred No, what is happing is that silver nitrate is dissolving in water, this process is a physical change because matter do not change its nature.

c. The color change of the solution indicates a chemical reaction occurred This option is true, when a color appears suggest the formation of a new product.

d. A chemical reaction occurred when silver nitrate was added to water

This option is not correct, in this process silver nitrate is dissolving in water but it is not a chemical reaction because matter does not change is nature.

e. A chemical reaction occurred when the solutions were combined This option is true because silver nitrate and sodium chloride react to form a new product (solid formation and change in color).

f. The lack of temperature change indicates a chemical reaction didn't occur This is false, some reactions do not need a change of color to happen.

Capture all of the smoke and weight it. it will weigh exactly the same before and after you burn it but will just be CO2 and H2O gas.
