Why does ice float on water?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Jobisdone [24]4 years ago

Answer: because of lesser density than water.

Explanation:

The substances which have lesser density than water will float in water and the substances which have greater density than water will sink in water.

The density of water is liquid state is more than the density of water in solid state. Water has a property to expand when it freezes and it forms cage like structure in the solid state. This results in the increase of volume and a corresponding decrease in density.

Thus ice floats in water.

3) Volume is the amount of space an object takes up.

6) Gallons and inches are customary units of measurement, while (grams, kilograms, meters, centimeter, milliliter) are metric units of measurements.

8) When using a thermometer, the liquid goes up in the tube when the temperature increases. The liquid goes down in the tube when the temperature decreases.

9) The instrument used to find the volume of a liquid is a graduated cylinder.

15) Units of measurement that can be used to measure mass are called grams and kilograms.

17) The temperature is measured in Fahrenheit in the customer system and Celsius in the metric system.

It takes 500 kJ to remove one mole of electrons from the atoms at the surface of a solid metal. How much energy does it take to
prisoha [69]

Answer:

8.31 × 10⁻²² kJ

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Energy required to remove one mole of electrons from the atoms at the surface of a solid metal: 500 kJ/mol e⁻

Step 2: Calculate how much energy does it take to remove a single electron from an atom at the surface of this solid metal

We will use Avogadro's number: there are 6.02 × 10²³ electrons in 1 mole of electrons.

500 kJ/mol e⁻ × 1 mol e⁻/6.02 × 10²³ e⁻ = 8.31 × 10⁻²² kJ/e⁻

What are the names of the following three compounds (see attached)
balu736 [363]

Answer:

1. 4-ethyl-1-heptene

2. 6-ethyl-2-octene

3. 1-butyne

Explanation:

The compounds are named according to IUPAC rules.

Compound 1:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain).
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (double has the priority over alkyl substituents).
  • The longest chain contains 7 carbon atoms, so taken the name hept.
  • The double bond between C1 and C2, so take no. 1 and add the suffix ene to hept "1-heptene".
  • The ethyl group is the alkyl substituent on position 4.
  • So the name is 4-ethyl-1-heptene.

Compound 2:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain).
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (double has the priority over alkyl substituents).
  • The longest chain contains 8 carbon atoms, so taken the name oct.
  • The double bond between C2 and C3, so take no. 2 and add the suffix ene to oct "2-octene".
  • The ethyl group is the alkyl substituent on position 6.
  • So the name is 6-ethyl-2-octene.

Compound 3:

  • Identify the longest carbon chain. This chain is called the parent chain.
  • Identify all of the substituents (groups appending from the parent chain), there is no substituents.
  • The parent chain is numbered so that the multiple bonds have the lowest numbers (Triple bond here take the lowest number).
  • The longest chain contains 4 carbon atoms, so taken the name but.
  • The triple bond between C1 and C2, so take no. 1 and add the suffix yne to but "1-butyne".
  • So the name is 1-butyne.
