Answer:

The correct option is: c) The formation of an oxide layer inhibits further diffusion and corrosion

Explanation:

Aluminium is a chemical element which belongs to the group 13 of the periodic table and has atomic number 13. It is a soft metal and a member of the p-block.

When aluminium is exposed to the normal atmosphere, the top layer of the metal gets oxidized to form a thin protective layer of aluminium oxide. The thin and hard protective aluminium oxide layer then protects the metal from getting further corroded. This process is called passivation.

What is ppm?
elena-s [515]

Answer:

What does ppm mean? This is an abbreviation for "parts per million" and it also can be expressed as milligrams per liter (mg/L). This measurement is the mass of a chemical or contaminate per unit volume of water. Seeing ppm or mg/L on a lab report means the same thing.

that is all i have to say.

What is the Law of the Conservation of Mass
Fantom [35]

Answer: law of conservation of matter states that mass in an isolated system can neither be created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformation.

thus, the mass of the reactants in a reaction must be equal to the mass of the products

What is the quantity of heat (in kJ) associated with cooling 185.5 g of water from 25.60°C to ice at -10.70°C?Heat Capacity of S
Cerrena [4.2K]

Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, sensible heat and latent heat,  the amount of heat required is 37.88 kJ.

<h3>Calorimetry</h3>

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

<h3>Sensible heat</h3>

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

<h3>Latent heat</h3>

Latent heat is defined as the energy required by a quantity of substance to change state.

When this change consists of changing from a solid to a liquid phase, it is called heat of fusion and when the change occurs from a liquid to a gaseous state, it is called heat of vaporization.

  • <u><em>25.60 °C to 0 °C</em></u>

First of all, you should know that the freezing point of water is 0°C. That is, at 0°C, water freezes and turns into ice.

So, you must lower the temperature from 25.60°C (in liquid state) to 0°C, in order to supply heat without changing state (sensible heat).

The amount of heat a body receives or transmits is determined by:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

  • c= Heat Capacity of Liquid= 4.184 \frac{J}{gC}
  • m= 185.5 g
  • ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 0 °C - 25.60 °C= - 25.6 °C

Replacing:

Q1= 4.184 \frac{J}{gC}× 185.5 g× (- 25.6 °C)

Solving:

<u><em>Q1= -19,868.98 J</em></u>

  • <u><em>Change of state</em></u>

The heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to

Q = m×L

where L is called the latent heat of the substance and depends on the type of phase change.

In this case, you know:

n= 185.5 grams× \frac{1mol}{18 grams}= 10.30 moles, where 18 \frac{g}{mol} is the molar mass of water, that is, the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

ΔHfus= 6.01 \frac{kJ}{mol}

Replacing:

Q2= 10.30 moles×6.01 \frac{kJ}{mol}

Solving:

<u><em>Q2=61.903 kJ= 61,903 J</em></u>

  • <u><em>0 °C to -10.70 °C</em></u>

Similar to sensible heat previously calculated, you know:

  • c = Heat Capacity of Solid = 2.092 \frac{J}{gC}
  • m= 185.5 g
  • ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= -10.70 °C - 0 °C= -10.70 °C

Replacing:

Q3= 2.092 \frac{J}{gC} × 185.5 g× (-10.70) °C

Solving:

<u><em>Q3= -4,152.3062 J</em></u>

<h3>Total heat required</h3>

The total heat required is calculated as:  

Total heat required= Q1 + Q2 +Q3

Total heat required=-19,868.98 J + 61,903 J -4,152.3062 J

<u><em>Total heat required= 37,881.7138 J= 37.8817138 kJ= 37.88 kJ</em></u>

In summary, the amount of heat required is 37.88 kJ.
