How does the structure of a mineral affect its properties?

Chemistry

Softa [21]4 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.

Lithium Iodide Has A Lattice Energy Of −7.3×102kJ/mol And A Heat Of Hydration Of −793kJ/mol. Lithium iodide has a lattice energy
daser333 [38]

Answer:

Heat of solution= - 63KJ/mole

Heat evolved = - 18.82KJ

Explanation:Heat of solution = Heat of solute + Heat of hydration

◇Hsoln = - ( - 7.3 × 10 ^ 2) + ( - 793 ) KJ / mol

◇H soln= - 63 KJ

Use enthalpy of solution equation to determine the enthalpy of solution for LiI

LiI ---> Li^ + + I^-

Molecular mass of LiI=133.85g

The chemical equation for the dissociation will be:

40gLiI (1molLiI)/133.85g LiI - 63KJ/1 mol LiI

18.82KJ

The heat was evolved because the value of enthalpy was negative

B. What do you notice about the density of the sinking objects? Dense objects feel very heavy for their size
puteri [66]

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

The density of an object is its mass per unit of volume. Dense objects feel very heavy for their size, while for objects with low density they are very light for their size.  

Density is the ratio of mass to volume; it is given by:

Density (D) = mass (m) / volume (V)

An object sinks in water if the density of the object is greater than the density of water. While an objects floats on water if the density of the object is les than the density of water

Calculate the volume in liters of a barium acetate solution that contains of barium acetate . Be sure your answer has the correc
Ilya [14]

Answer:

1.09 L

Explanation:

There is some info missing. I think this is the original question.

<em>Calculate the volume in liters of a 0.360 mol/L barium acetate solution that contains 100 g of barium acetate. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

<em />

The molar mass of barium acetate is 255.43 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 100 grams are:

100 g × (1 mol/255.43 g) = 0.391 mol

0.391 moles of barium acetate are contained in an unknown volume of a 0.360 mol/L barium acetate solution. The volume is:

0.391 mol × (1 L/0.360 mol) = 1.09 L
