Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Mohs scale is used to determine the hardness of a material or substance.

This scale includes ten materials and each of them are placed according to their hardness from bottom to top as follows.

  • Talc = 1
  • Gypsum = 2
  • Calcite = 3
  • Fluorite = 4
  • Apatite = 5
  • Orthoclase = 6
  • Quartz = 7
  • Topaz = 8
  • Corundum = 9
  • Diamond = 10

Greater is the number, the hardest will be the substance, that is, according to Mohs scale diamond is the hardest substance and talc is the least hardest substance.

Thus, we can conclude that option (c) is the correct answer.

If sufficient acid is used to react completely
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Solution,

Mass of Mg - 21gm

molar mass of Mg - 24gm

moles = Given mass/ Molar mass

moles = 21/24 = 0.875

1 mole of Mg produce 1 mole of H2 gas

so 0.875 mole of Mg will produce 0.875 moles of H2 gas

One mole of H2 gas = 22.4 litre

0.875 mole of H2 gas = 0.875×22.4

0.875 mole of H2 gas = 19.60 litre

So the nearest ANSWER is Option four 19.37 litre.

<span>Answer: has only one identity

Compounds like water (H2O) has 2 kinds of atoms which are hydrogen and oxygen. They also have a chemical bond and their bond is not able to be separated by physical means. It different with a mixture of water with sugar. The water and sugar are two different molecules but they don't bind each other. If you evaporate the water, the sugar will remains so it </span>can be separated by physical means.<span>.</span>

A student calculates that the volume of his textbook is 991.880 cm3. what is the volume written with 3 significant figures?
k0ka [10]

The volume of the textbook calculated by the student written to 3 significant figures is 992cm³

  • According to this question, a student calculates the volume of his textbook and arrived at an answer of 991.880 cm³.

  • To round up this digit to 3 significant figures, which means that only 3 significant numbers should appear in the answer.

  • To do this, the number after the third number is 8, which means we can round up the value of 1 to 2. Hence, the volume of the textbook calculated by the student is 992cm³ in 3 s.f.

rjkz [21]

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Calcium Carbide (CaC₂) is an unusual substance that contains a carbon anion (C₂²⁻). The reaction with water involves several steps that occur in rapid succession. CaC2 is a salt (notice that its name is similar to sodium chloride). When a salt dissolves in water, ions leave the crystal lattice and enter the aqueous (aq) solution. Write the relevant balanced chemical equation for the dissolution of CaC₂, in water.

Answer:

CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)

Explanation:

When a salt dissolves in water, it dissociates in its ions. In the Calcium Carbide, the cation is Ca⁺² and the anion is C₂²⁻, so the reaction is:

CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O(l) → Ca(OH)₂(aq) + C₂H₂(aq)

The base Ca(OH)₂ is soluble, so it will dissociate at Ca⁺ and OH⁻, but the C₂H₂ is stable and doesn't dissociate in the solution.
