Answer:

Food gets broken down.

Explanation:

The teeth cut and help crush the food in our mouths while mixing it with saliva. This helps make it easier to swallow and digest.

A weighed piece of magnesium ribbon is added to a dried crucible, which is reweighed and heated in air to form the compound MgO.

olga nikolaevna [1]

Answer:

One of the errors for low percentage of magnesium could be because not all the magnesium may have reacted.

Explanation:

During the heating process, if the magnesium have not reacted completely, it can lead to low percentage of magnesium in the oxide formed. The product may still look a bit greyish rather than whitish after the heating process.

A reaction of 41.9 g of Na and 30.3 g of Br2 yields 36.4 g of NaBr . What is the percent yield?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer: The percent yield is, 93.4%

Explanation:

First we have to calculate the moles of Na.

$\text{Moles of Na}=\frac{\text{Mass of Na}}{\text{Molar mass of Na}}=\frac{41.9g}{23g/mole}=1.82moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of $Br_2$

${\text{Moles of}Br_2} = \frac{\text{Mass of }Br_2 }{\text{Molar mass of} Br_2} =\frac{30.3g}{160g/mole}=0.189moles$

${\text{Moles of } NaBr} = \frac{\text{Mass of } NaBr }{\text{Molar mass of } NaBr} =\frac{36.4g}{103g/mole}=0.353moles$

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$2Na(s)+Br_2(g)\rightarrow 2NaBr$

As, 1 mole of bromine react with = 2 moles of Sodium

So, 0.189 moles of bromine react with = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.189=0.378$ moles of Sodium

Thus bromine is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Na is the excess reagent.

As, 1 mole of bromine give = 2 moles of Sodium bromide

So, 0.189 moles of bromine give = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.189=0.378$ moles of Sodium bromide

Now we have to calculate the percent yield of reaction

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100=\frac{0.353 mol}{0.378}\times 100=93.4\%$

Therefore, the percent yield is, 93.4%

An experiment reveals that 125.0 grams of an unknown metal increases in temperature from 22.0 oC to 43.6 oC upon absorbing 640 j

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Cp = 0.237 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹

Explanation:

Amount of energy required by known amount of a substance to raise its temperature by one degree is called specific heat capacity.

The equation used for this problem is as follow,

Q = m Cp ΔT ----- (1)

Where;

Q = Heat = 640 J

m = mass = 125 g

Cp = Specific Heat Capacity = <u>??</u>

ΔT = Change in Temperature = 43.6 °C - 22 °C = 21.6 °C

Solving eq. 1 for Cp,

Cp = Q / m ΔT

Putting values,

Cp = 640 J / (125 g × 21.6 °C)

Cp = 0.237 J.g⁻¹.°C⁻¹
