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 the volume occupied by the gas molecules shown below were doubled, what would happen to the pressure they exert? (Assume cons
AnnZ [28]

there's no picture here but I guess the answer would be:

considering the constant temperature, if you double the volume, the pressure would be halved.

like: volume is 2, pressure is 4

if 2×2, then:4÷2

Given the reaction: 4A1 + 302 - 2A1,O, How many grams of Al will be
dlinn [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 27 g of Al

Explanation:

Data

mass of Al = ?

moles of Al₂O₃ = 0.5

The correct formula for the product is Al₂O₃

Balanced chemical reaction

               4Al + 3O₂   ⇒   2Al₂O₃

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass of the product

Al₂O₃ = (27 x 2) + (16 x 3)

         = 54 + 48

         = 102 g

2.- Convert the moles of Al₂O₃ to grams

               102 g ---------------- 1 mol

                 x       ----------------  0.5 moles

                 x = (0.5 x 102) / 1

                 x = 51 g of Al₂O₃

3.- Use proportions to calculate the mass of Al

                4(27) g of Al --------------- 2(102) g of Al₂O₃

                     x               --------------- 51 g

                        x = (51 x 4(27)) / 2(102)

                        x = 5508 / 204

                        x = 27 g of Al

Why do two oxygen atoms form a double covalent bond?
elena-s [515]

A lone oxygen atom has 6 electrons in its outer shell which is not very stable, whereas as full octet (8 outer shell electrons) is stable. In order to achieve this two oxygen atoms will share 4 electrons, each contributing 2 electrons. Since these electrons exist within the orbitals of both atoms, to oxygen atoms essentially achieve a full octet.
