Hey there!

Solid Sodium and water will react spontaneously and release energy.  This is based on the reactivity series. Sodium is a highly reactive metal and hence, it is placed at the top of the reactivity series. This is because it loses its outermost electron very readily. When it comes in contact with water, it reacts with it violently to form sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. This reaction is exothermic and hence, accompanied with a release of energy.  Gold lies at the bottom of the reactivity series as it is very stable and does not give away its outermost electrons easily. Therefore, when it comes in contact with water, there is no reaction and no release of energy.

How do the two desalination processes differ from the atmospheric water generator in terms of where the processes can be used?
-Dominant- [34]

Water Desalination Processes. Water desalination processes separate dissolved salts and other minerals from water. Feedwater sources may include brackish, seawater, wells, surface (rivers and streams), wastewater, and industrial feed and process waters. Membrane separation requires driving forces including pressure (applied and vapor),...

Samples with masses of 5.5 g 2.27 g and 0.8995 g are mixed together. The sum of the masses of the three
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

m=8.7g

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, it is widely known that when measurements with different significant figures are put under mathematical operations, the final result must be displayed with the same amount of significant figures of the shortest measurement, thus, due to the fact that 5.5 g has two significant figures only the result is consequently shown with two significant figures as well as shown down below:

m=5.5g+2.27g+0.8995g\\\\m=8.6695g

By rounding the first six to seven due to the fact that the next six is greater than five, according to rounding rules, the result is:

m=8.7g

Best regards.

Calculate the osmotic pressure of 20 m solution of <br> LiCl at 25C
Soloha48 [4]

Answer:

979 atm

Explanation:

To calculate the osmotic pressure, you need to use the following equation:

π = <em>i </em>MRT

In this equation,

-----> π = osmotic pressure (atm)

-----><em> i</em> = van't Hoff's factor (number of dissolved ions)

-----> M = Molarity (M)

-----> R = Ideal Gas constant (0.08206 L*atm/mol*K)

-----> T = temperature (K)

When LiCl dissolves, it dissociates into two ions (Li⁺ and Cl⁻). Therefore, van't Hoff's factor is 2. Before plugging the given values into the equation, you need to convert Celsius to Kelvin.

<em>i </em>= 2                             R = 0.08206 L*atm/mol*K

M = 20 M                    T = 25°C + 273.15 = 298.15 K

π = <em>i </em>MRT

π = (2)(20 M)(0.08206 L*atm/mol*K)(298.15 K)

π = 979 atm
