Which element is used for the shinny trim in thermomerters

1 answer:

If you’re referring to he red stuff- the liquids can be ethanol, toluene, kerosene, or isoamyl acetate. They’re transparent so they’re made more visible with red dye. (So I’d guess the answer is ethanol)

I found this in the Wikipedia article ‘Alcohol thermometer’

Two samples of potassium iodide are decomposed into their constituent elements. The first sample produced 13.0g of potassium and

Leona [35]

Answer:

79.43kg

Explanation:

To adequately solve this problem, we should know the law of constant composition. This is a pointer to the fact that no matter the type of sample, the percentage compositions of potassium and iodine still remains the same. We can use these masses to get a formula and we would know the percentage compositions in whatever mass we are dealing with.

First of all, we add the masses in the first sample. 13 + 42.3 = 55.3

Hence, the percentage composition of the potassium is 13/55.3 * 100 = 23.51%

The percentage composition of the iodine is = 100 - 23.51 = 76.49%

Now, we need to get the formula of the compound. We can get this by dividing the percentage compositions with the atomic masses. The atomic mass of potassium and iodine is 39 and 127 respectively.

Potassium = 23.51/39 =0.603

Iodine = 76.49/127 = 0.602

We then divide by the smaller value to get the formula and this shoes our formula is KI

We can see they have a ratio of 1 to 1, meaning one atom of potassium to one atom of iodine. This further confirms the percentage compositions of 23.5 to 76.5

Now to get the mass of iodine yielded, let us say the mass is xkg

This means x/(x + 24.4) * 100 = 76.5

100x = 76.5( x + 24.4)

100x = 76.5x + 1866.6

100x - 76.5x = 1866.6

23.5x = 1866.6

x = 1866.6/23.5 = 79.43kg

What conflicts did issac newton have with Robert Hooke?

Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The great confrontation between the two men occurred in 1686 when Newton published the first volume of his Principia and Hooke affirmed that it was he who had given him the notion that led him to the law of universal gravitation. Hooke demanded credit as the author of the idea but Newton denied it

4) Example of physical properties: colour, Smell, texture, boiling and melting point density and viscosity.

11) Cations are formed when positively-charged ions and anions negatively-charged ions are formed when a metal loses electrons, and a nonmetal gains those electrons. The electrostatic attraction between the positives and negatives brings the particles together and creates an ionic compound, such as sodium chloride.

12) Quantum mechanical model: The Quantum Mechanical Model. ... The quantum mechanical model of the atom uses complex shapes of orbitals (sometimes called electron clouds), volumes of space in which there is likely to be an electron.

Hope these helped!
