A measure of how much work we can get from each unit of energy. It's also important because we don't want to kill plants.

What happens when the vapor pressure of a liquid is equal to the external pressure? The liquid freezes The intermolecular forces
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The liquid boils.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure is simply defined as the pressure exerted on a substance (solid/liquid) by the vapor of the substance collected just at the top of the surface of the substance. In concise words, it is the pressure of Vapor that is in contact with its solid or liquid state.

For a liquid, it is the pressure of the Vapor gathering at the top of the surface of the liquid.

When this Vapor pressure matches the external pressure, the temperature stays constant and the molecules of the liquid all through the liquid can gain enough energy, rise to the surface of the liquid and break free in gaseous form; thereby, boiling.

The definition of boiling point basically explains that it is the point at which temperature stays constant, and the vapour pressure of the liquid matches the atmospheric/external pressure around the liquid and its liquid molecules change into vapor.

This is why liquids boil faster at higher altitudes; the atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes is reduced, hence, the temperature at which liquid boils at this high altitude is normally lower than its known boiling point temperature.

It is also why food cooks to a temperature higher than the boiling point of water in a pressure cooker/pot. The added pressure ensures that the cooking water boils at temperatures higher than its boiling point; thereby exposing the cooking ingredients to a higher temperature, leading to faster cooking.

Hence, it is obvious why boiling is the answer to this question.

I want to know which ones are molecular equation, complete ionic equation and net ionic equation
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

The molecular equations are:

1. CuSO₄ (aq) + 2 KOH (aq) ----> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + K₂SO₄ (aq)

2. Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) + K₂SO₄ (aq) + BaSO₄ (s) + 2 KNO₃ (aq)

The complete ionic equations are:

1. Ag + (aq) + NO₃- (aq) + I- (aq) + Na (aq) ---> AgI (s) + No₃- (aq) + Na+ (aq)

2. Cu²+ + SO₄²- (aq) + 2 K+ (aq) + 2 OH- (aq) ---> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + 2K+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq)

The net ionic equations are:

1. Ca²+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq) ---> CaSO₄ (s)

2. Ba²+ (aq) +SO₄²- (aq) ---> BaSO₄ (s)

Explanation:

A molecular equation is a balanced chemical equation which shows the reacting species as molecules rather than as componenet ions in their compounds with subscripts written beside the molecules to indicate the state in which they occur in the chemical reaction.

An ionic equation expresses the reacting species as components ions in a chemical reation. All the ions and molecules reacting are shown.

In a net ionic equation, the ions which remain in the ionic state also known as spectator ions are not written as part of the equation.

From the given attachment;

The molecular equations are:

1. CuSO₄ (aq) + 2 KOH (aq) ----> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + K₂SO₄ (aq)

2. Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq) + K₂SO₄ (aq) + BaSO₄ (s) + 2 KNO₃ (aq)

The complete ionic equations are:

1. Ag + (aq) + NO₃- (aq) + I- (aq) + Na (aq) ---> AgI (s) + No₃- (aq) + Na+ (aq)

2. Cu²+ + SO₄²- (aq) + 2 K+ (aq) + 2 OH- (aq) ---> Cu(OH)₂ (s) + 2K+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq)

The net ionic equations are:

1. Ca²+ (aq) + SO₄²- (aq) ---> CaSO₄ (s)

2. Ba²+ (aq) +SO₄²- (aq) ---> BaSO₄ (s)

If the mass of a material is 109 grams and the volume of the material is 24 cm3, what would the density of the material be? g/cm
MakcuM [25]
The units tell you:
g/cm³ = Mass (in grams) per (divided by) Volume (in cm³);
So:
109/24 = 4.54166..... ⇒ 4.54 g/cm³.
Always look at the units.
Just like for speed, you might have m/s so this is:
Distance (in meters) per (divided by) Time (in seconds).
