What is steel and why is it better than iron?

1 answer:

5 0

Steel is practically one of the worlds most important metals to use in construction, it is harder and stronger than iron can be. You can say iron is the base metal of steel, if you need more info, just ask :>

Can you use molecular orbital theory to explain why fluorine is such a highly reactive gas?

vivado [14]

The F2 molecular orbital diagram shows 4e- are in the highest energy antibonding (destabilizing) molecular orbitals resulting in a bond order = 1.

Single bonds are easier to break and therefore more reactive. So the answer is yes.

A mixture of gases with a pressure of 800.0 mm hg contains 60% nitrogen and 40% oxygen by volume. what is the partial pressure o

klasskru [66]

Hello!

We have the following statement data:

Data:
$P_{Total} = 800 mmHg$
$P\% N_{2} = 60\%$
$P\% O_{2} = 40\%$
$P_{partial} = ? (mmHg)$

As the percentage is the mole fraction multiplied by 100:

 $P = X_{ O_{2} }*100$

The mole fraction will be the percentage divided by 100, thus:
What is the partial pressure of oxygen in this mixture?

$X_{ O_{2} } = \frac{P}{100}$
$X_{ O_{2}} = \frac{40}{100}$
$\boxed{X_{ O_{2}} = 0.4}$

To calculate the partial pressure of the oxygen gas, it is enough to use the formula that involves the pressures (total and partial) and the fraction in quantity of matter:

In relation to $O_{2}$ :

$\frac{P O_{2} }{P_{total}} = X_O_{2}$
$\frac{P O_{2} }{800} = 0.4$
$P_O_{2} = 0.4*800$
$\boxed{\boxed{P_O_{2} = 320\:mmHg}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

b. 320.0 mm hg

What is true about the position of any metal in the periodic table

Serjik [45]

Answer:

The metals are on the bottom left in the periodic table, and the nonmetals are at the top right. The semimetals lie along a diagonal line separating the metals and nonmetals. The elements are arranged in a periodic table, which is probably the single most important learning aid in chemistry.

Calculate the molarity of a solution obtained dissolving 10.0 g of cobalt(Ⅱ) bromide tetrahydrate in enough water to make 450 mL

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

The molarity of the CoBr2•4H2O solution is 7.64 × 10-2 M

Explanation:

Cobalt (II) bromide tetrahydrate

• Cobalt - A transition metal with Roman numeral (II) → charge: +2 → Co2+

• Bromide - anion from group 7A → -1 charge → symbol: Br-

• Tetrahydrate- tetra- means 4 and hydrate is H2O

The chemical formula of the compound is: CoBr2•4H2O

We then need to determine the number of moles of CoBr2•4H2O since this is the only information missing for us to find molarity. Notice that the volume of the solution is already given.

We’re given the mass of CoBr2•4H2O. We can use the molar mass of CoBr2•4H2O4 to find the moles.

•The molar mass of CoBr2•4H2O is:

CoBr2•4H2O

1 Co x 58.93 g/mol Co = 58.93 g/mol

2 Br x 79.90 g/mol Br = 159.80 g/mol

8 H x 1.008 g/mol H = 8.064 g/mol

4 O x 16.00 g/mol O = 64.00 g/mol

________________________________________

Sum = 290.79 g/ mo

The moles of CoBr2•4H2O is:

= 10.0 g CoBr2•4H2O x $\frac{ 1 mol CoBr_2 . 4H_2O}{290.79 g CoBr_2 . 4H_2O}$

= 0.0344 mol CoBr2•4H

We know that the volume of the solution is 450 mL.

We can now calculate for molarity:

Convert mL to L → 1 mL = 10-3 L

Formula:

Molarity (M)= Mole of solute / Liters of solution

= 0.0344 mol CoBr2•4H / 450 mL x 1 ml / 10^ -3 L

= 0.0764

= 7.64 × 10-2 mol/L
