3 0

Explanation:

(a) The mass of an object remains the same always. It is independent of its location. In this case, an iron nail is ground into powder. It means that its mass will remain unchanged. Hence, (a) is the correct option.

(b) Whenever there is a change of color of an object, a chemical reaction occurs. It shows that a reaction happens there. In this problem, a paper turns yellow-brown upon exposure to sunlight. A chemical reaction takes place there. Hence, (b) is the correct option.

A water treatment tablet contains 20.0 mg of tetraglycine hydroperiodide, 40.0% of which is available as soluble iodine. If two

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

$16\ \text{ppm}$

Explanation:

Mass of one tablet = 20 mg

Mass of two tablets = $2\times 20=40\ \text{mg}$

Percent that is soluble in water = 40%

Mass of tablet that is soluble in water = $0.4\times 40=16\ \text{mg}$

So, mass of solute is $16\ \text{mg}$

Density of water = 1 kg/L

Volume of water = 1 L

So, mass of 1 L of water is $1\times 1=1\ \text{kg}=1000\ \text{g}$

PPM is given by

$\dfrac{\text{Mass of solute}}{\text{Mass of solvent}}\times 10^6=\dfrac{16\times 10^{-3}}{1000}\times 10^6\\ =16\ \text{ppm}$

Hence, the concentration of iodine in the treated water $16\ \text{ppm}$ .

Which molecule is polar, based on structure? 1) sulfur dioxide 2) carbon disulphide 3) ethylene 4) carbon tetrachloride

Savatey [412]

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option 1. It would be the molecule carbon disulphide that will be polar, based on the structure of the choices given. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day. Feel free to ask more questions.

If liquid carbon disulfide reacts with 450 mL of oxygen to produce the gases carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide, what volume of e

ivolga24 [154]

If excess carbon disulfide reacts with 450 mL of oxygen, 150 mL of carbon dioxide and 300 mL of sulfur dioxide gases would be produced respectively.

<h3>Stoichiometric calculation</h3>

The reaction between liquid carbon disulfide and oxygen is represented by the equations below:

$CS_2 + 3O_2 -- > CO_2 + 2SO_2$

The mole ratio of oxygen to carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide produced is 3:1:2.

Thus, for 450 mL oxygen, 1/3 x 450 = 150 mL of carbon dioxide will be required.

Also for 450 mL of oxygen, 2/3 x 450 = 300 mL of sulfur dioxide will be required.

Part A. Two containers, one at 305 K and the other at 295 K, are placed in contact with each other. 1. 1 J of heat flows from th

posledela

Answer:

0.00011 JK.

The process does NOT violate the second law of thermodynamics

Explanation:

The following parameters are given which are going to help in solving for the change in entropy of the system. The term "entropy'' simply means the degree of disorderliness of a system.

=> The temperature of container A = 305 K, the temperature of container B = 295 K and the amount of heat generated when the containers are placed in contact with each other = 1. 1 J.

The change in entropy of the hot container = -(1/305) = - 0.00328 J/K.

The change in entropy of the cold container = 1/295 = 0.00339 J/K.

Therefore, the change in the entropy of the system = - 0.00328 J/K + 0.00339 J/K = 0.00011 JK.

Note that the change in entropy of the system gives a positive value. Hence, this process does not violate the second law of thermodynamics.

The process does NOT violate the second law of thermodynamics.
