Explanation:
Inspite of having similar intermolecular forces, CS2 has a higher boiling point than CO2, since it has a greater molar mass. The potential energy of molecules reduces until a certain level as they get closer to each other. Although the polarity of both CO2 and CS2 are cancelled because of their linear structure.
Answer:
1 mole of iron (Fe) = 56 g (molar mass)
Since 56 g of iron = 1 mol.
Therefore, 112 g of iron= 1/ 56 ×112 mol = 2 mol.

Answer:
This is the first answer,
winter solstice
The winter solstice occurs during the hemisphere's winter. In the Northern Hemisphere, this is the December solstice (usually December 21 or 22) and in the Southern Hemisphere, this is the June solstice (usually June 20 or 21).
and this is the second one,
the tilt of the Earth on its axis
Seasons change because of the tilt of the Earth and the planet's movement around the Sun. Did you know? It takes about 365.25 days for the Earth to orbit the Sun. We have leap years to make up for the extra ¼ day!
Answer:
MnO- Manganese Oxide
Explanation:
Empirical formula: This is the formula that shows the ratio of elements
present in a
compound.
How to determine Empirical formula
1. First arrange the symbols of the elements present in the compound
alphabetically to determine the real empirical formula. Although, there
are exceptions to this rule, E.g H2So4
2. Divide the percentage composition by the mass number.
3. Then divide through by the smallest number.
4. The resulting answer is the ratio attached to the elements present in
a compound.
Mn O
% composition 72.1 27.9
Divide by mass number 54.94 16
1.31 1.74
Divide by the smallest number 1.31 1.31
1 1.3
The resulting ratio is 1:1
Hence the Empirical formula is MnO, Manganese oxide
Answer:
1) The Kelvin temperature cannot be negative
2) The Kelvin degree is written as K, not ºK
Explanation:
The temperature of an object can be written using different temperature scales.
The two most important scales are:
- Celsius scale: the Celsius degree is indicated with ºC. It is based on the freezing point of water (placed at 0ºC) and the boiling point of water (100ºC).
- Kelvin scale: the Kelvin is indicated with K. it is based on the concept of "absolute zero" temperature, which is the temperature at which matter stops moving, and it is placed at zero Kelvin (0 K), so this scale cannot have negative temperatures, since 0 K is the lowest possible temperature.
The expression to convert from Celsius degrees to Kelvin is:
Therefore in this problem, since the student reported a temperature of -3.5 ºK, the errors done are:
1) The Kelvin temperature cannot be negative
2) The Kelvin degree is written as K, not ºK
