Describe how surface currents would be effective Earth did not rotate

1 answer:

3 0

The moon is what makes currents so if there was no moon there would be no current in our oceans. The way it makes currents is from the gravitational pull.

Calculate the volume of the gas, in liters, if 1.35 mol

Alina [70]

Answer:

22.8 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Moles of the gas (n): 1.35 mol

Pressure of the gas (P): 1.30 atm

Temperature (T): -6°C

Ideal gas constant (R): 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

Step 2: Convert "T" to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15 = -6 + 273.15 = 267 K

Step 3: Calculate the volume of the gas

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

V = n × R × T / P

V = 1.35 mol × (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 267 K / 1.30 atm

V = 22.8 L

Why is calcium chloride (rock salt, CaCl2) more effective than sodium chloride (table salt, NaCl) at de-icing roads in the winte

Tema [17]

Answer:

The correct option is;

D. Calcium chloride breaks into 3 ions, while sodium chloride only breaks into 2 ions

Explanation:

To help melt the ice on icy streets, calcium chloride (CaCl₂) is a more preferred salt type to sodium chloride (NaCl) as when it dissociates into ions in the ice, it forms three ions: a calcium ion, Ca²⁺, and two chloride ions, 2 Cl⁻, while sodium chloride forms two ions: one sodium ion, Na⁺, and one chloride ion, Cl⁻

According to the freezing point depression equation, we have;

ΔT = $K_f$ × m × i

Where;

ΔT = Change in freezing point temperature

$K_f$ = The freezing point depression constant

m = The solution's molality

i = van't Hoff factor

The calcium chloride salt will cause the most depression because the van't Hoff factor is 3 for calcium chloride and 2 for sodium chloride.

The complete orbital notation diagram of an atom is shown.

Yuki888 [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the description provided by the statement of the problem, we can easily solve for the values of the angular momentum quantum number.

Let us represent the atom as J:

In atom J, we have five sub-orbitals in which there 9 electrons. From the designation used to represent sublevels, we can write the notation as below:

J = 10 electrons = 1s² 2s² 2p⁵

The s-sublevel can only contain 2 electrons

p-sublevel can contain 6 electrons but we have just 5 electrons in there.

Now, to find the angular momentum quantum number, we need to understand what this quantum number denotes.

This quantum number is also known as azimuthal or secondary quantum number. It gives the shape of the orbitals in subshells accomodating electrons. This quantum number is designated by (l).

l (n-1) name of orbital shape of orbital

0 s spherical

1 p dumb-bell

2 d double dumb-bell

3 f complex

J = 1s² 2s² 2p⁵

where 1 and 2 coefficients are the principal quantum numbers(n).

s and p are the shape of the orbitals

For 1s², the l vaue is 0 because the electron is in the s orbital

2s² the l value is 0, 1 and the electron can be in the s or p orbitals

2p⁵ the l value is 0, 1 and the electrons can be in the s or p orbitals

The quantum number gives the shape of the orbital.

ikadub [295]

<span>Average oxidation state = VO1.19
Oxygen is-2. Then 1.19 (-2) = -2.38
Average oxidation state of V is +2.38

Consider 100 formula units of VO1.19
There would be 119 Oxide ions = Each oxide is -2. Total charge = -2(119) = -238
The total charge of all the vanadium ions would be +238.
Let x = number of of V+2
Then 100 – x = number of V+3
X(+2) + 100-x(+3) = +238
2x + 300 – 3x = 238
-x = 238-300 = -62
x = 62

Thus 62/100 are V+2
62/100 * 100 = 62%

</span>62 % is the percentage of the vanadium atoms are in the lower oxidation state. Thank you for posting your question. I hope that this answer helped you. Let me know if you need more help.
