Answer: option <span>D. be given a positive charge produced by the movement of electrons to the other end of the ball.
</span>

Explanation:


This phenomenon is called electrostatic induction.


The excess of negative charge on the end of the rod will repel the electrons on the side of the pith ball that have been approached to it.

Then the electrons on the pith ball will move far away from this end with it will be left an excess of positive charge.

In this way the rod has induced that the ball acquires a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other end.

In an experiment, a student gently heated a hydrated copper compound to remove the water of hydration. the following data was re
NeX [460]
The unknown of this problem is the experimental percent of water in the compound in order to remove the water of hydrogen, given the following:

Mass of crucible, cover and contents before heating                               23.54 g
Mass of empty crucible and cover                                                            18.82 g
Mass of crucible, cover, and contents after heating to constant mass     20.94 g

In order to get the answer, determine the following:

Mass of hydrated salt used                          = 23.54 g – 18.82 g = 4.72 g
Mass of dehydrated salt after heating          = 20.94 g – 18.82 g = 2.12 g
Mass of water liberated from salt                 = 4.72 g – 2.12 g = 2.60 g

Then solve the percent of water in the hydrated salt by:

% water = (mass of water / mass of hydrated salt) x 100
% water = 2.60 g / 4.72 g x 100
% water = 55.08 % in the compound

How many copper atoms are in 150 g of copper metal
GaryK [48]
1. From grams -> mole:

=grams given x 1 mol/molar mass

So 150 g Cu x 1 mol Cu/63.546 g Cu = 2.4 mol Cu

2. From mole -> atoms

=number of mol x 6.022x10^22 atoms/1 mol

So 2.4 mol Cu x 6.022x10^22 atoms Cu/1 mol Cu = 1.4 x 10^24 atoms Cu

What is the mass of 0.5 moles of carbon tetrafluoride, CF4?
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

44 g

Explanation:

The formula for the number of moles (n) is equal to n=\frac{mass}{molecular weight} .

Since we need to find the mass, we derive it from the formula of the number of moles and we get that mass = n x molecular weight .

The molecular weight of CF_{4} = 12 g/mol (from the carbon) + 19x4 g/mol (from the 4 fluorine atoms)= 88 g/mol

We plug in the numbers in the derived formula for the mass and we get :

mass = n x molecular weight = 0.5 mol x 88 g/mol = 44 g
