What does squeezing do to the particles of snow or ice?

2 answers:

4 0

As you squeeze the snow into a more compact space, it melts from a solid into a liquid. ... It's less dense because the unique shape and properties of water molecules make it very hard to build a dense solid crystal.

Allushta [10]

Answer:

I would use calorimetric to determine the specific heat and I would measure the mass of a sample

Explanation:

I would use calorimetry to determine the specific heat.

I would measure the mass of a sample of the substance.

I would heat the substance to a known temperature.

I would place the heated substance into a coffee-cup calorimeter containing a known mass of water with a known initial temperature.

I would wait for the temperature to equilibrate, then calculate temperature change.

I would use the temperature change of water to determine the amount of energy absorbed.

I would use the amount of energy lost by substance, mass, and temperature change to calculate specific heat.

Ca+HCI—>CaCI2+H2, what is the reaction?

arsen [322]

Answer:

single replacement reaction

Explanation:

This is a kind of single replacement reaction where you switch either cations or anions. Here you switched Ca for H and produced Cacl2 and H2 gas by itself.

The rate constant for this second‑order reaction is 0.610 M − 1 ⋅ s − 1 0.610 M−1⋅s−1 at 300 ∘ C. 300 ∘C. A ⟶ products A⟶product

Darya [45]

Answer: It takes 3.120 seconds for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.860 M to 0.260 M.

Explanation:

Integrated rate law for second order kinetics is given by:

$\frac{1}{a}=kt+\frac{1}{a_0}$

k = rate constant = $0.610M^{-1}s^{-1}$

$a_0$ = initial concentration = 0.860 M

a= concentration left after time t = 0.260 M

$\frac{1}{0.260}=0.860\times t+\frac{1}{0.860}$

$t=3.120s$

Thus it takes 3.120 seconds for the concentration of A to decrease from 0.860 M to 0.260 M.

A 50/50 blend of engine coolant and water (by volume) is usually used in an automobile's engine cooling system. If a car's cooli

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{109.17 \, ^{\circ}\text{C}}$

Explanation:

Data:

50/50 ethylene glycol (EG):water

V = 4.70 gal

ρ(EG) = 1.11 g/mL

ρ(water) = 0.988 g/mL

Calculations:

The formula for the boiling point elevation ΔTb is

$\Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}b$

i is the van’t Hoff factor — the number of moles of particles you get from 1 mol of solute. For EG, i = 1.

1. Moles of EG

$\rm n = 0.50 \times \text{4.70 gal} \times \dfrac{\text{3.785 L}}{\text{1 gal}} \times \dfrac{\text{1000 mL}}{\text{1 L}} \times \dfrac{\text{1.11 g}}{\text{1 mL}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{\text{62.07 g}} = \text{159 mol}$

2. Kilograms of water

$m = 0.50 \times \text{4.70 gal} \times \dfrac{\text{3.785 L}}{\text{1 gal}} \times \dfrac{\text{998 g}}{\text{1 L}} \times \dfrac{\text{1 kg}}{\text{1000 g}} = \text{8.88 kg}$

3. Molal concentration of EG

$b = \dfrac{\text{159 mol}}{\text{8.88 kg}} = \text{17.9 mol/kg}$

4. Increase in boiling point

$\rm \Delta T_{b} = iK_{b}b = 1 \times 0.512 \, \, ^{\circ}\text{C} \cdot kg \cdot mol^{-1} \, \times 17.9 \cdot mol \cdot kg^{-1} = 9.17 \, ^{\circ}\text{C}$

5. Boiling point

$\rm T_{b} = T_{b}^{\circ} + \Delta T_{b} = 100.00 \, ^{\circ}\text{C} + 9.17 \, ^{\circ}\text{C} = \mathbf{109.17 \, ^{\circ}C}\\\rm \text{The boiling point of the solution is $\large \boxed{\mathbf{109.17 \, ^{\circ}C}}$}$

Waves transport water in the deep ocean toward the coastlines. True or false

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

Most likely true

Explanation:

because the speed of all ocean waves is controlled by gravity, wavelength, and water depth. ... Waves moving through water deeper than half their wavelength are known as deep-water waves. On the other hand, the orbits of water molecules in waves moving through shallow water are flattened by the proximity of the sea surface bottom.
