What is the economic impact of too much calcium ions in a given source of water?

1 answer:

4 0

Water with high levels of calcium ions is referred to as hard water. While hard water has health benefits, this type of water has economic implications in the industry and households too. In the industry, hard water can cause a breakdown of equipment such as boilers, over time. In the household, too much soap is used when washing with hard water than soft water. Therefore hard water requires to be softened before industrial use. Economically, this increases the cost of production.

agasfer [191]

The correct response I believe is D. The reaction rate increases because the probability of collisions increases as there are more Zn atoms to react.

Which of the following tool components is unlikely to present a hazard

nydimaria [60]

Gloves is the tool component which will unlikely present a hazard in this scenario.

<h3>What is Hazard?</h3>

This is referred to as potential source of harm when performing various types of activities.

Gloves will unlikely cause harm as it is used to prevent the risk of electric shock when handling electrical devices which is why it is the most appropriate choice.

How is it possible for there to be more than one kind of atom of the same element?

tiny-mole [99]

They are called isotopes.

Isotopes have the same number of electrons and protons in their unionized state. They differ in the number of neutrons. The first and simplest example is hydrogen.

The most common hydrogen has

1 proton

1 electron and

0 neutrons

It has 2 cousins

1 proton

1 electron

1 neutron

And

1 proton

1 electron

2 neutrons.

Most elements have some differences in the number of neutrons present in their nuclei. Cesium and Xenon have the most number of isotopes. Each has 36. You wonder how the atoms are held together.

Suppose that 0.410 mol of methane, CH4(g), is reacted with 0.560 mol of fluorine, F2(g), forming CF4(g) and HF(g) as sole produc

Ber [7]

Answer:

The balanced equation for this reaction will be

$CH4 + 4F2$ → $CF4 + 4HF$

We can see that 1 mole of methane requires 4 moles of fluorine but we have 0.41 moles of CH4 and 0.56mole of F2

So using the unitary method we will get that

1 mole of CH4 → 4 mole of 4 mole of fluorine

0.41 mole of methane → 4*0.41 = 1.64 mole of fluorine for complete reaction

but we have only 0.56 mole of fluorine that means fluorine is the limiting reagent and the product will only be formed by only this amount of fluorine.

4 moles of fluorine → 1 mole of CF4

0.56 mole → $\frac{1}{4} * 0.56$ = 0.14mole of CF4

4 moles of fluorine → 4 moles of HF

0.56 mole of fluorine → 0.56 mole of HF

now to find the heat released we have the formula as

DELTA H = n * Delta H of product - n *delta H of reactant

where n is the moles of the reactant and product.

note: since no information is given about the enthalpies of the species we leave it on general equation also you need to add the product side enthalpy of the species present and similarly on the product side.
