A polymer is a single chained molecule that is  made up of repeating subunits called monomers. In contrast, a composite is a material that is made from combining two or more molecules with similar physical or chemical properties to produce a hybrid molecule.

Plywood- it is a composite made from sticking together thin strips of wood with glue to ake stable sheets.

Plastic- a polymer made of repeating units called monomers of some kind of organic compounds.

concrete- is a composite made from mixing water cement and rocks. The mixture is not repeating and can branch in different ways which discounts it from being a polymer.

fiberglass- is a composite made that has no repeating units but made from plastic and glass fiber.

paper- is a polymer made of a repeating units of a specific monomer.

nylon- is a polymer manufactured by reacting repeating units of monomers.

Plywood: Composite
Plastic: Polymer
Concrete: Composite
Fiber: Could be either or depending on the type of Fiber
Glass: Composite, yet made of polymers
Paper: Could be either. For example composite would be paper mache or recycled paper however plain paper would be polymer.
Nylon: Polymer

1. Silver nitrate will react with aluminum metal, yielding aluminum nitrate and silver metal. If you start with 0.223 moles of a
Archy [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

1)

Given data:

Number of moles of aluminium = 0.223 mol

Mass of silver produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3AgNO₃  +   Al  →  3Ag + Al(NO₃)₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al with silver.

                               Al           :            Ag

                                1            :             3

                                0.223   :         3×0.223= 0.669 mol

Grams of silver:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.669 mol × 107.87 g/mol

Mass = 72.2 g

2)

Given data:

Number of moles of mercury(II) oxide produced = 3.12 mol

Mass of mercury = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Hg + O₂  →   2HgO

Now we will compare the moles of mercury with mercury(II) oxide.

                         HgO         :         Hg

                            2            :          2

                          3.12          :       3.12

Mass of Hg:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.12 mol × 200.59 g/mol

Mass = 625.84 g

3)

Given data:

Number of moles of dinitrogen pentoxide = 12.99 mol

Mass of oxygen = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2N₂  + 5O₂   →  2N₂O₅

Now we will compare the moles of N₂O₅ with oxygen.

                 N₂O₅          :           O₂

                     2            :             5

                    12.99      :         5/2×12.99 = 32.48 mol

Mass of oxygen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 32.48 mol × 32 g/mol

Mass = 1039.36 g

4)

Given data:

Number of moles of benzene = 0.103 mol

Mass of carbon dioxide = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₆H₆  + 15O₂   →  12CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of N₂O₅ with oxygen.

                  C₆H₆         :           CO₂

                     2            :             12

                    0.103      :         12/2×0.103 = 0.618 mol

Mass of carbon dioxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.618 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass = 27.192 g

What is the ph of a 0.014 M HCL solution?
Allushta [10]

Answer:

pH = 1.853

Explanation:

For every mole of hydrochloric acid, one mole of hydronium ion is required. Thus, in order to neutralize 0.014 moles of HCL, 0.014 moles of hydronium is required.

[H_3O^+] = [HCl] = 0.014

pH  = -log [H^+] = -log [H_3O^+]

Substituting the available values in above equation, we can say that   the pH of the solution is equal to

- log (0.014)

pH = 1.853

pH of a 0.014 M HCL solution = 1.853

IgorC [24]

Answer:

It changed from unsaturated to saturated solution

Explanation:

Before adding the spatula tip full amount, the solution was unsaturated, but as soon as the spatula tip full amount was added and couldn't dissolve, it became unsaturated because it could not dissolve any more solute having already dissolved it maximum number of solute
