Answer:

Air

Explanation:

Air like all gasses, is a liquid. Liquid is a substance that flows freely. Therefore, your answer would be gas.

(1) Though Ice, can melt to become a liquid, its form is still TECHNICALLY a solid.

(2) Sand can form to shape, but it still considered a solid. Sand is a solid because each grain of sand is just a very small solid that can hold its shape

(3) Candles, are a solid even though, like ice, can become a liquid but only for a short amount of time because wax would eventually turn back into a solid.

Please show the work :(What is the estimated force applied to the box if the acceleration is .40 m/s2?

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

20N

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Force(N) Acceleration(m/s²)

10 0.2

? 0.4

Unknown:

The force applied when the acceleration is 0.4m/s²

Solution:

From newton's second law of motion;

Force = mass x acceleration

Since we are using the same box, let us find the mass of the box;

Force = mass x acceleration

10 = mass x 0.2

mass = $\frac{10}{0.2}$ = 50kg

Now,

The force in the second instance will be;

Force = 50 x 0.4 = 20N

Draw structural formulas for the alkoxide ion and the alkyl(aryl)bromide that may be used in a williamson synthesis of the ether

Juliette [100K]

Williamson synthesis is the most common way for obtaining ethers, called after its developer Alexander Williamson. It is an organic reaction of forming ethers from an organohalide and an alkoxide. The reaction is carried out according to the SN2 mechanism.

On the attached picture it is shown required alkoxide ion, alkyl(aryl)bromide and the ether that forms from the reactants.

Bromine (Br) belongs to the halogen family. Based on the location of the halogens, how many valence electrons does bromine have?

Amanda [17]

Answer:

D. 7

Explanation:

The halogens are found in Group 7 of the Periodic Table. If Bromine is a halogen, then that means it would be found in Group 7. Also, elements in Group 7 have 7 electrons in its outer shell, Bromine would have 7 electrons in its outer shell.

This question has multiple parts. Work all the parts to get the most points. An aqueous antifreeze solution is 39.0% ethylene gl

nlexa [21]

Answer:

Molality = 10.300 m

Molarity = 6.5970 M

mole fraction = 0.156549

Explanation:

39.0 % = ethylene glycol

61.0 % = water

imagine the total mass = 100g

39.0% ethylene glycol = 39g

61.0 % water = 61g

1) Molality = number of moles / mass of solvent (kg)

Molar mass of ethylene glycol = 62.07g/mole

mole = 39g / 62.07g/mole = 0.6283 moles

Molality = moles / mass of solvent = 0.6283 moles / 0.061kg = 10.300 m

2) Molarity = number of moles / volume of solution

Since we know the density of the solution = 1.05g /ml

⇒ volume = 100g / 1.05g /mL = 95.24 mL = 0.09524 L

Molarity = 0.6283 moles / 0.09524 L = 6.5970 M

3) Mole fraction

moles water = 61g / 18.02g/mole = 3.38513 moles

Total number of moles = moles of ethylene glycol + moles of water = 0.6283 + 3.38513 = 4.0134276 moles

Mole fraction = 0.6283/ 4.0134276 = 0.156549

If the temperature of a gas is increased from 20°C to 35°C, what is the new pressure if the original pressure was 1.2 atm? Assum

Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

B.) 1.3 atm

Explanation:

To find the new pressure, you need to use Gay-Lussac's Law:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

In this equation, "P₁" and "T₁" represent the initial pressure and temperature. "P₂" and "T₂" represent the final pressure and temperature. After converting the temperatures from Celsius to Kelvin, you can plug the given values into the equation and simplify to find P₂.

P₁ = 1.2 atm P₂ = ? atm

T₁ = 20 °C + 273 = 293 K T₂ = 35 °C + 273 = 308 K

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂ <----- Gay-Lussac's Law

(1.2 atm) / (293 K) = P₂ / (308 K) <----- Insert values

0.0041 = P₂ / (308 K) <----- Simplify left side

1.3 = P₂ <----- Multiply both sides by 308
