Answer:D. corundum

Explanation:

Corundum is a hard mineral. It is tough and stable in nature. It is the hardest mineral after diamond. It remains unaffected by the treatment of acids and environmental agents. Translucent brown color corundum is commonly found in nature.

What is the osmotic pressure of a 100 ml of toluene solution that contains a total of 0.005 moles of a polymer dissolved in it a
allsm [11]

Osmotic pressure is the pressure that would have to be applied to a pure solvent to prevent it from passing into a given solution by osmosis.

That can be mathematical computed from the expression:

Osmotic pressure=C×R×T

Where,

C= Concentration

R=Gas constant

T=Temperature

Concentration=Number of moles of solute/Volume(L)

=0.005*1000/100

=0.05

R= 0.08206 atm L/mol K

T=25+273

=298

Osmotic pressure= 0.05×0.08206×298

=1.2 atm

A scientist has 0.12 miles of a gas at a pressure of 4.06 kPa and a volume of 14 liters in an enclosed container. What is the te
natka813 [3]

Answer:

56972.17K

Explanation:

P = 4.06kPa = 4.06×10³Pa

V = 14L

n = 0.12 moles

R = 8.314J/Mol.K

T = ?

We need ideal gas equation to solve this question

From ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P = pressure of the ideal gas

V = volume the gas occupies

n = number of moles

R = ideal gas constant

T = temperature of the gas

PV = nRT

T = PV / nR

T = (4.06×10³ × 14) / (0.12 × 8.314)

T = 56840 / 0.99768

T = 56972.17K

Note : we have a large number for temperature because we converted the value of pressure from kPa to Pa

Silicon carbide (SiC) is an important ceramic material made by reacting sand (silicon dioxide, SiO2) with powdered carbon at a h
makkiz [27]

Answer:

Percent yield of SiC is 77.0%.

Explanation:

Balanced reaction: SiO_{2}+3C\rightarrow SiC+2CO

Molar mass of SiC = 40.11 g/mol

Molar mass of SiO_{2} = 60.08 g/mol

So, 100.0 kg of SiO_{2} = \frac{100.0\times 10^{3}}{60.08} moles of SiO_{2} = 1664 moles of SiO_{2}

According to balanced equation, 1 mol of SiO_{2} produces 1 mol of SiC

Therefore, 1664 moles of SiO_{2} produce 1664 moles of SiC

Mass of 1664 moles of SiC = (1664\times 40.11)g = 66743g = 66.74 kg (4 sig. fig.)

Percent yield of SiC = [(actual yield of SiC)/(theoretical yield of SiC)]\times 100%

                                 = \frac{51.4kg}{66.74kg}\times 100 %

                                 = 77.0%
