Some atoms<span> are more stable when they </span>gain or lose<span> an </span>electron<span> (or possibly two) and </span>form ions<span>. This results in a full outermost </span>electron<span> shell and makes them energetically more stable.

Charlie is frying an egg in a pan located over a gas burner. He develops a model to determine the energy produced by the flame i
shtirl [24]

The system would look like a closed system if no heat is lost from the flame or the egg to the surroundings.

<h3>What is a closed system?</h3>

A closed system is one in which there is no exchange of materials and energy with the environment. This implies that no energy is lost and also that  no energy enters into the system.

Having said that, let us now examine Charlie's system. This system would approximate a closed system if no heat is lost from the flame or the egg to the surroundings.

An aqueous solution contains 1.00 g/L of a derivative of the detergent laurel alcohol. The osmotic pressure of this solution is
iVinArrow [24]

Answer:

mm = 1043.33 g/mol

Explanation:

osmotic pressure (π):

  • π = CbRT

∴ π = 17.8 torr = 0.0234 atm

∴ Cb: solute concentration

∴ T = 25°C = 298 K

∴ R = 0.082 atm.L/K.mol

⇒ Cb = π/RT

⇒ Cb = (0.0234 atm)/((0.082 atm.L/K.mol)(298 K))

⇒ Cb = 9.585 E-4 mol/L

molar mass (mm):

⇒ mm = (1.00 g/L)(L/9.585 E-4 mol)

⇒ mm = 1043.33 g/mol

Cual es la balacion quimica de Ca(OH)2+H3PO4→Ca3(PO4)2+H2O
Alenkinab [10]

Answer: The balanced equation will be= 3(Ca(OH)2) + 2(H3PO4) => Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O; This means that 3 Moles of Ca(OH)2 plus 2 Moles of (H3(PO4)2) Produce one Mole of Ca3(PO4)2 plus 6 Moles of water.

Explanation: Hope that had helped :)
