That would be correct as stated.
OLEGan [10]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:- "Like dissolves like." It means, a polar compound is soluble in polar solvent and non polar compound is soluble in non polar solvent.

Mineral oil is non polar in nature as it has longest carbon chain. Hexane is also non polar solvent. Being non polar, mineral oil is soluble in hexane.

Ethanol is a polar solvent and so mineral oil is insoluble in it.

Enthalpy change depends on the rate at which a substance is heated or cooled true or false
Dahasolnce [82]
Enthalpy is a thermodynamic quantity that describes the heat content of a system, that can not be measured directly. That's why we measure change in enthaply, measured in the units joules. The statement that e<span>nthalpy change depends on the rate at which a substance is heated or cooled is false. Enthalpy change depends only on the following factors:

A sample of nitrogen occupies 10.0 liters at 25°C what would be the new volume at 20°C? 7.9 L Ob 9.8 L 10.2 L 10.6 L
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

  9.4 liter

Explanation:

1) Data:

V₁ = 10.0 L

T₁ = 25°C = 25 + 273.15 K = 298.15 K

 P₁ = 98.7 Kpa

 T₂ = 20°C = 20 + 273.15 K = 293.15 K

  P₂ = 102.7 KPa

  V₂ = ?

2) Formula:

Used combined law of gases:

  PV / T = constant

  P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

3) Solution:

Solve the equation for V₂:

  V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)

Substitute and compuite:

V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂ / (P₂ T₁)

V₂ = 98.7 KPa × 10.0 L × 293.15 K / (102.7 KPa × 298.15 K)

V₂ =  9.4 liter ← answer

if the lightbulb receives 100 J of electrical energy, and gives off 75 energy, how much heat (thermal energy away from the light
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

Amount of heat energy released by light bulb = 25 joules

Explanation:

Given:

Energy receive by light bulb = 100 Joules

Energy released by light bulb as light energy = 75 Joules

Find:

Amount of heat energy released by light bulb

Computation:

We know that, energy is neither be created nor destroys

So,

Using Law of conservation of energy

Energy receive by light bulb = Energy released by light bulb as light energy + Amount of heat energy released by light bulb

100 = 75 + Amount of heat energy released by light bulb

Amount of heat energy released by light bulb = 100 - 75

Amount of heat energy released by light bulb = 25 joules
