Water   has  positive  side  and  negative  side. This  is  the  reason  why water  can  dissolve salt  such sodium  chloride.  Example  when  sodium  chloride  dissociate  in  water it  give  Na+  ions  and  Cl- ions. the  negative  side  of  water   attack the  Na+  ions  while  the positive   side  of  water  attract Cl-  ions

The density of water at 4 degrees Celsius is 1.00 g/cm cubed at unknown object has density of 7.9 g/cm cubed would you expect it
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The object will be sank

Explanation:

In this case the object is more dense than water.

Density is the relationship between a certain amount of mass of matter and the volume that is being occupied by it.

The object occupies more volume, so it occupies more mass.

As the mass from the object is higher, the object will be sank because the weight is higher than the weight from the liquid.

If the object has a lower density than the water, it will float on it.

Equal masses (in grams) of hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are reacted to form water. Which substance is limiting?
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

a. Oxygen gas is limiting

Explanation:

hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are reacted to form water

2H₂ + O₂  →  2H₂O

the above balanced equation shows that 2 moles of H₂ is required for 1 mole of O₂

Given equal masses of H₂ and O₂

assuming 'x' gm for each, no. of moles of each gas  =

no. of moles of H₂ = x/2 = 0.5x moles

no.of moles of O₂ = x/32 = 0.031x moles

This shows that no. of moles of O₂ is very less so O₂ will become the limiting reagent.

Which property can be used to tell gold and pyrite apart?
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

D. Malleability

Explanation:

Gold is made up of the element Au and it is a metal.

Pyrite is iron sulfide and it is a non-metal.

  • They have very similar appearance to such an extent that pyrite is widely called the fool's gold.
  • To distinguish between the two, we simply explore their metallic properties.
  • Gold is malleable. Pyrite is not. It will crumble under pressure.
