The proprietor of a rock shop insists that a nugget is pure gold. if the nugget occupies a volume of 5.40 ml, what would its mas

Density of gold = 19.3 g/mL

Density can be calculated from volume and mass of a substance as follows,

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Given the volume of gold nugget = 5.40 mL

Calculating the mass of gold nugget from density and volume:

Density = \frac{Mass}{Volume}

Mass = Density * Volume

5.40 mL * 19.3 \frac{g}{mL} =104.22 g

Therefore, the mass of the nugget is 104.22 g

Which of these accurately describes the reactants of a reaction?
oksian1 [2.3K]

Option (C) is the correct answer.

In the chemical reaction, reactants are the starting elements or compounds which will chemically react and will form the products. Reactants are only present on the left hand side of the reaction and products are present on the right hand side of the reaction.

Reactants present in the reaction is completely used up in the reaction to form products implies no traces of reactants will be present in the product side.

For example:

2H_{2}+O_{2}\rightarrow 2H_{2}O

Here, hydrogen and oxygen are the reactants whereas water is the product (new substance). Hydrogen reacts with oxygen and form water i.e. hydrogen and oxygen is completely used up in the reaction to form new substance i.e. water.

Hence, substances that are used up in a reaction is known as reactants of the reaction.

What is the concentration of ammonia in a solution if 23.4 mL of a 0.117 M solution of HCl are needed to titrate a 100.0 mL samp
Georgia [21]

Answer: 0.0274 M

Explanation:-

The balanced chemical solution is:

NH_4OH(aq)+HCl(aq)\rightarrow NH_4Cl(aq)+H_2O(l)

According to the neutralization law,

n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2

where,

M_1 = molarity of HCl solution = 0.117 M

V_1 = volume of HCl solution = 23.4 ml

M_2 = molarity of NH_4OH solution = ?

V_2 = volume of NH_4OH solution = 100.0 ml

n_1 = valency of HCl = 1

n_2 = valency of NH_4OH = 1

1\times 0.117M\times 23.4=1\times M_2\times 100.0

M_2=0.0274

Therefore, the concentration of ammonia in a solution will be 0.0274 M

Referencing the reasoning you used from #1, explain the difference between objects that feel hot and those that
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

The temperature of the cold water is lower than the warm one. So, when we put the hand in the warm from the cold water, our hand will absorb heat, causing the hand to feel hot. Thus, we can conclude that the more heat it absorbs, the more hotter it is. Whereas the more heat it releases, the colder it is.

What would be the volume of mercury sample that has a mass of 52.757 g? The density of mercury is 12.5g / mL .
frozen [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Divide the mass by the density and the units of grams will cancel so youll end up with mL.

(52.757g)/(12.5g/mL) = 4.2mL

A(n) ____________ releases H+ in water, therefore it must have one or more ___________ atoms as part of its structure.
shtirl [24]

An acid releases H^{+}  in water , therefore it must have one or more <u>hydrogen  </u>atoms as part of its structure .

Acids are chemical compounds that release hydrogen ions (H+) when placed in water. For example, when hydrogen chloride is placed in water, it releases its hydrogen ions and the solution becomes hydrochloric acid. Bases are chemical compounds that attract hydrogen atoms when they are placed in water.

A hydrogen ion is created when a hydrogen atom loses or gains an electron. A positively charged hydrogen ion (or proton) can readily combine with other particles and therefore is only seen isolated when it is in a gaseous state or a nearly particle-free space.
