How does the structure of a mineral affect its properties?

Chemistry

Softa [21]3 years ago

Purely for crystalline structure, "twinning" or repetition of crystal forms can bring about a striated texture on the mineral. Crystal defects and chemical impurities can alter the physical and electrical properties of a mineral. Some minerals can exist in different crystal forms and exhibit "polymorphism." The range in crystal structure can change the mineral's hardness, strength, solubility, electrical properties, melting points, etc.

A 25.0 g sample of an alloy was heated to 100.0 oC and dropped into a beaker containing 90 grams of water at 25.32 oC. The tempe
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The specific heat of the alloy C_{a} = 0.37 \frac{KJ}{Kg K}

Explanation:

Mass of an alloy m_{a} = 25 gm

Initial temperature T_{a} = 100°c = 373 K

Mass of water m_{w} = 90 gm

Initial temperature of water T_{w} = 25.32 °c = 298.32 K

Final temperature T_{f} = 27.18 °c = 300.18 K

From energy balance equation

Heat lost by alloy = Heat gain by water

m_{a} C_{a}  [T_{a} - T_{f}] = m_{w} C_w (T_{f} -T_{w} )

25 × C_{a} × ( 373 - 300.18 ) = 90 × 4.2 (300.18 - 298.32)

C_{a} = 0.37 \frac{KJ}{Kg K}

This is the specific heat of the alloy.

A patient needs to take 875mg twice daily The pills in the bottle are each 250mg How many pills does she wants to take 875mg
Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

3.5 pill need to taken for completing dosage of 875 mg

Explanation:

Total dosage of medicine to be taken in a day

= 2 * 875 \\= 1750mg

Total weight of one pill = 250 mg

Number of pills required is equal to total dosage of medicine divided by the weight of one pill.

Hence,

Number of pills

= \frac{875}{250} \\= \frac{175}{50} \\= \frac{35}{10} \\= 3.5
