Hello!

The number of 20-g ice cubes required to absorb 47 kJ from a glass of water upon melting is 7 icecubes

Why?

We are going to clear from the equation of the released heat, the mass of ice (m). The specific latent heat of fusion of ice is 336 kJ/kg:

$Q=m*L\\ \\ m=\frac{Q}{L}=\frac{47 kJ}{336 kJ/kg}=0,1399 kg=139,88 g\\ \\ 139,88g*\frac{1 icecube}{20g}=6,99=7icecubes$

So, 7 ice cubes are required to absorb that amount of heat from the glass of water.

Have a nice day!

What example of mixture could be seperated using two or more techniques? Explain your answer

STatiana [176]

You can take two liquids of different densities (how much mass is in a given volume) and pour them into a funnel. An example is oil and water. When the mixture settles, the denser liquid will be at the bottom, and drips through the funnel first. This is a separation that you can just let occur naturally.

An element X forms a compound XH 3 with hydrogen. Another element Y forms a compound YX 2 with X. Given that the valency of hydr

Marina CMI [18]

X $H_{3}$
H has a positive 1 charge. This means that having 3H = +3<span>. This is a neutral compound so x= -3 because X+3H= 0

Y</span> $X_{2}$ is also neutral so 2X+Y= 0
we know X=-3 So, 2(-3)+Y=0
-6+y=0
Y=+6 charge

Answer: The valency of X is -3. The valency of Y is 6

6) A volume of 473 mL of oxygen was collected at 27°C. What volume would the oxygen occupy at

sertanlavr [38]

Answer : The volume of oxygen occupy at 173° would be, 703.2 mL

Explanation :

Charles' Law : It states that volume of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

$\frac{V_1}{T_1}=\frac{V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$V_1\text{ and }T_1$ are the initial volume and temperature of the gas.

$V_2\text{ and }T_2$ are the final volume and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

$V_1=473mL\\T_1=27^oC=(27+273)K=300K\\V_2=?\\T_2=173^oC=(173+273)K=446K$

Now put all the given values in above equation, we get:

$\frac{473mL}{300K}=\frac{V_2}{446K}\\\\V_2=703.2mL$

Therefore, the volume of oxygen occupy at 173° would be, 703.2 mL

How is clayey soil useful for crops?

joja [24]

Answer:

Clayey soil is rich in humus and very fertile, so it is suitable for growing cereals like wheat and gram. Such soil is good at retaining water.Clayey is known to be useful for crops. Because the particle size in this soil is very fine, it has the ability to retain more amounts of water. - This makes it easy for crops to access water as it is very essential for the growth of the plant. - Some of the crops need a high amount of water in order to grow.Clayey soil is made up of fine particles that are tightly packed and increases soil density and strength. It is rich in nutrient content in the form of organic matter or humus so, it is very fertile soil. It has excellent water retaining a capacity.
