freezing and condensation

Explanation:

The motion of the atoms decreases during freezing and condensation. These are phase changes that increases the molecular attraction between particles and forces them to come closer.

Freezing is a phase change from liquid to solid. It is usually achieved by removing heat from a substance and cooling it.

Condensation is a phase change from gases to liquid. .

Gases have the greatest motion because they have little to no attractive forces between them.

Phase changes from gas to solid to liquid generally reduces the motion of the atoms.

The pH of a solution is 5.0. To a 10 ml of this

mylen [45]

Answer:

pH = 7

Explanation:

pH is defined as -log [H⁺]. In a solution of pH 5:

pH = -log [H⁺]

10^(-5) = [H⁺]

1x10⁻⁵M = [H⁺].

Then, this solution is diluted from 10mL to 1000mL (990mL of water + 10mL of the original solution). That means the solution is diluted:

1000mL / 10mL / 100 times.

If [H⁺] before dilution was 1x10⁻⁵M, after dilution will be:

1x10⁻⁵M / 100 = 1x10⁻⁷M

And pH:

pH = -log [H⁺]

pH = -log 1x10⁻⁷M

A 237g sample of molybdnum metal is heated to 100.1 0C and then dropped into an insulated cup containing 244 g of water at 10.0

miv72 [106K]

Answer:

The specific heat of molybdenum is 0.254 joules per gram-Celsius.

Explanation:

We consider the system formed by the molybdenum metal and water as our system, a control mass inside an insulated cup, that is, a container that avoids any energy and mass interactions between system and surroundings.

From statement we notice that metal is cooled down whereas water is heated. According to the First Law of Thermodynamics, we know that:

$Q_{metal} - Q_{water} = 0$

$Q_{metal} = Q_{water}$

Where:

$Q_{water}$ - Heat received by water, measured in joules.

$Q_{metal}$ - Heat released by metal, measured in joules.

Now we expand this identity by definition of sensible heat:

$m_{metal}\cdot c_{metal}\cdot (T_{m,o}-T) = m_{water}\cdot c_{water}\cdot (T-T_{w,o})$

The specific heat of the metal is cleared within equation above:

$c_{metal} = \frac{m_{water}\cdot c_{water}\cdot (T-T_{w,o})}{m_{metal}\cdot (T_{m,o}-T)}$

If we know that $m_{water} = 0.237\,kg$ , $m_{metal} = 0.244\,kg$ , $c_{water} = 4186\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$ , $T_{w,o} = 10\,^{\circ}C$ , $T_{m,o} = 100.10\,^{\circ}C$ and $T = 15.30\,^{\circ}C$ , the specific heat of molybdenum is:

$c_{metal} = \frac{(0.237\,kg)\cdot \left(4186\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C} \right)\cdot (15.30\,^{\circ}C-10\,^{\circ}C)}{(0.244\,kg)\cdot (100.10\,^{\circ}C-15.30\,^{\circ}C)}$

$c_{metal} = 254.119\,\frac{J}{kg\cdot ^{\circ}C}$

The specific heat of molybdenum is 0.254 joules per gram-Celsius.

What decides if an atom will be a cation or an anion?

JulijaS [17]

The loss or gain of electrons

Explanation:

The loss or gain of electrons determines if an atom will become a cation or anion.

A cation is a positively charge ion

An anion is a negatively charged ion.

In an atom, we have sub-atomic particles:

Protons are the positively charged particles

Electrons are negatively charged

Neutrons carry no charges

Only electrons can be lost or gained in chemical processes that forms cations and anions.

When a neutral atom gains electron, it has more electrons than protons. This makes it negatively charged and we call it an anion.

When a neutral atom loses an electron, the number of protons is more. We call it a cation.

In terms of valence electrons, explain why metals form positive ions.

diamong [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

Metal elements form positively charged ions called cations because they are located on the left side of the periodic table These elements all have valence electrons in an s orbital. These electrons are relatively easy for the atom to lose to achieve a stable octet of electrons in its outermost energy shell.
