For your second question its Diamonds,Rubys, Emeralds.
And for your first question its :Minerals are natural: These substances that form without any human help.

Minerals are solid: They don't droop or melt or evaporate.

Minerals are inorganic: They aren't carbon compounds like those found in living things.

Minerals are crystalline: They have a distinct recipe and arrangement of atoms.

Minerals are solid inorganic substances of natural occurrences.
Examples of minerals that would be considered gems are: Alexandrite, Diamond, Lapis, Paraiba, Ruby, and Topaz. There's 80, those are just a few.

I hope this helps! :>

NItrogen in air reacts at high temperature to form NO2 according to the reaction:
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

The correct answer is option E.

Explanation:

Structures for the reactants and products are given in an aimage ;

Number of double bonds in oxygen gas molecule = 1

Number of double bonds in nitro dioxide gas molecule = 1

Number of single bond in in nitro dioxide gas molecule = 1

Number of triple bonds in nitrogen gas molecule = 1

N_2+2O_2\rightarrow 2NO_2,\Delta H=?

\Delta H=[2 mol\times \Delta H_{f,NO_2}]-[1 mol\times \Delta H_{f,N_2}-2 mol\times \Delta H_{f,O_2}]

\Delta H_{f,NO_2}=33.18 kJ/mol

\Delta H_{f,N_2}=0 (pure element)

\Delta H_{f,O_2}=0 (pure element )

\Delta H=2 mol\times 33.18 kJ/mol=66.36kJ=15.86 kcal

The enthalpy of the given reaction is 15.86 kcal.

A certain amount of hydrogen peroxide was dissolved in 100. mL of water and then titrated with 1.68 M KMnO4. What mass of H2O2 w
Stels [109]

Answer:

see explanation below

Explanation:

First to all, this is a redox reaction, and the reaction taking place is the following:

2KMnO4 + 3H2SO4 + 5H2O2 -----> 2MnSO4 + K2SO4 + 8H2O + 5O2

According to this reaction, we can see that the mole ratio between the peroxide and the permangante is 5:2. Therefore, if the titration required 21.3 mL to reach the equivalence point, then, the moles would be:

MhVh = MpVp

h would be the hydrogen peroxide, and p the permanganate.

But like it was stated before, the mole ratio is 5:2 so:

5MhVh = 2MpVp

Replacing moles:

5nh = 2MpVp

Now, we just have to replace the given data:

nh = 2MpVp/5

nh = 2 * 1.68 * 0.0213 / 5

nh = 0.0143 moles

Now to get the mass, we just need the molecular mass of the peroxide:

MM = 2*1 + 2*16 = 34 g/mol

Finally the mass:

m = 0.0143 * 34

m = 0.4862 g

You have a mass of 54 kg and are sitting on a stool. The normal force the stool applies on you is ...
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

529.2 N

Explanation:

As we have studied the first law of motion, which states that every action has some reaction, equal in magnitude but having an opposite direction.

The force that is acting on the student will be due to gravitational force, that is equal to his weight.

                                              F=mg: 54kg x 9.8m/s^2 =529.2 N

So the weight of student is exerting downwards towards the stool and land. The stool will also exert a force on the student that will be equal in magnitude but opposite in direction, then it will be 529.2 N.

This is because the student is sitting in a constant state and all the weight is exerted on the stool.

Note: This answer is very generic supposing that all the weight of the student is on stool. But, if we suppose that student's legs are on floor so it means the force of gravity acting on the stool has become less because student's mass on stool is less. So the answer would be a force somehow less than 529.2 N.  However, since the question asked normal force, it would be weight of student in general terms.

Hope it helps!

Why dilute H2SO4 is added to oxali acid solution in redox reaction​
Sphinxa [80]

To prevent the hydrolysis and to catalyse the reaction.

Explanation:

  • Sulphuric acid is the catalyst and also a dehydrating agent in this reaction.
  • Sulphuric acid is using in redox reaction because sulphuric acid is providing H+ ions which is necessary for this reaction to occur more quickly, but the sulphate ions from the sulphuric acid barely react during this process. So H2SO4 is adding in this reaction to make it more acidic.
  • H2SO4 is preventing hydrolysis by providing excess H+ ions into the reaction. H2SO4 is stable towards the direction of oxidation.
