Is a rock a mixture, element, compound or mineral

A solution is formed by mixing 15.2 g KOH into

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

There are approximately $0.271\; \rm mol$ of formula units in that $\rm 15.2\; g$ of $\rm KOH$ (the solute of this solution.)

Explanation:

A solution includes two substances: the solute and the solvent. Note the solution here contains significantly more water than $\rm KOH$ . Hence, assume that water is the solvent (as it is in many other solutions.)

The (molar) formula mass of $\rm KOH$ is necessary for finding the number of moles of

One $\rm K$ atom,
One $\rm O$ atom, and
One $\rm H$ atom.

The formula mass of $\rm KOH$ will thus be the sum of:

The mass of one mole of $\rm K$ atoms,
The mass of one mole of $\rm O$ atoms, and
The mass of one mole of $\rm H$ atoms.

On the other hand, the mass (in grams) of one mole of atoms of an element is (numerically) the same as its relative atomic mass. The relative atomic mass data can be found on most modern periodic tables.

Relative atomic mass data from a modern periodic table:

$\rm K$ : $39.098$ .
$\rm O$ : $15.999$ .
$\rm H$ : $1.008$ .

For example, the relative atomic mass of $\rm K$ (potassium, atomic number $19$ ) is $39.098$ (3 sig. fig.) Hence, the mass of one mole of

The formula mass of $\rm KOH$ is the sum of these three masses:

$\begin{aligned}& M(\mathrm{KOH}) \\ &\approx 39.098 + 15.999 + 1.008 \\ &= 56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}$ .

The number of moles of $\rm KOH$ formula units in this $15.2\; \rm g$ sample would be:

$\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{m(\mathrm{KOH})}{M(\mathrm{KOH})} \\ &\approx \frac{15.2\; \rm g}{56.105\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.271\; \rm mol \end{aligned}$ .

How is magma formed?

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

“Magma” is exclusively found and formed beneath the earth’s surface. Once magma is on or above the surface of the earth it is referred to as “lava.” Magma is typically formed by extreme temperature melting solid rock within the earth. Pressure and rock composition can also affect magma formation. High pressure can help magma be “squeezed” from partially molten rock. Likewise, as rocks are usually composed of different minerals with different melting points, magma formation from rocks is usually only partial and uneven.

When aqueous solutions of potassium fluoride and hydrochloric acid are mixed, an aqueous solution of potassium chloride and hydr

Semmy [17]

Answer:

K⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq) + H⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq) → KCl (aq) + H⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq)

Explanation:

KF (aq) + HCl (aq) → KCl (aq) + HF (aq)

KF (aq) → K⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq)

HCl (aq) → H⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)

KCl (aq) → K⁺ (aq) + Cl⁻ (aq)

HF (aq) → H⁺ (aq) + F⁻ (aq)

For what reasons would modern scientists accept dalton's atomic theory but not the idea of an atom proposed by the greek philoso

soldi70 [24.7K]

Solution:

The idea of an atom proposed by the Greek philosophers because:

According to Greek Philosopher, matter is composed of small and indivisible particles called atoms. He introduced atoms as too small to be seen, unchangeable, completely solid without internal structure. He proposed that atoms are of variety of shapes and sizes which is responsible for different types of matter.

But according to Dalton’s atomic theory, chemical elements have atoms, which are identical in weight. The different elements have different atoms of different weight. Atoms can combine in whole-number ratios to form compounds. These observations are already introduced by Greek philosopher, but the idea of atomic weight is introduced by Dalton. He introduced the list of 21 elements with their atomic weights and, he was the first to propose the element’s symbol.
