The answer is to increase the surface area of the solute.
You see it dissolves faster because there is a lot more water touching it when it is has a higher surface area.This can be achieved by crushing

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When we crush a solute then there will be increase in number of solute particles. This means that there is increase in surface area of solute particles.

Hence, more is the surface area of solute particles more will be the collisions between solute and solvent particles. Therefore, more will be rate of reaction.

Thus, we can conclude that we crush solids before putting them into a solvent to increase the surface area of the solute.

Which of these statements about neutrons is true?
galina1969 [7]
The answer is B.
A cannot be the answer because only electrons move around the nucleus.

 C cannot be it because electrons have a lot more mass than neutrons.

D can't be it because it 's not a typical occurrence for the amount of neutrons  to equal the amount of electrons

You have a ballon filled with hydrogen gas which keeps it at a constant pressure, regardless the volume. The initial volume of t
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

619°C

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 736 mL

Initial temperature = 15.0°C

Final volume of gas = 2.28 L

Final temperature = ?

Solution:

Initial volume of gas = 736 mL (736mL× 1L/1000 mL = 0.736 L)

Initial temperature = 15.0°C (15+273 = 288 K)

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₂ = T₁V₂/V₁  

T₂ = 2.28 L × 288 K / 0.736 L

T₂ = 656.6 L.K / 0.736 L

T₂ = 892.2 K

K to °C:

892.2 - 273.15 = 619°C

If kc = 7.04 × 10-2 for the reaction: 2 hbr(g) ⇌h2(g) + br2(g), what is the value of kc for the reaction: 1/2 h2(g) + 1/2 br2 ⇌h
Kay [80]
At the first reaction when 2HBr(g) ⇄ H2(g) + Br2(g)
So Kc = [H2] [Br2] / [HBr]^2
7.04X10^-2 = [H2][Br] / [HBr]^2

at the second reaction when 1/2 H2(g) + 1/2 Br2 (g) ⇄ HBr
Its Kc value will = [HBr] / [H2]^1/2*[Br2]^1/2
we will make the first formula of Kc upside down:
1/7.04X10^-2 = [HBr]^2/[H2][Br2]
and by taking the square root: 
∴ √(1/7.04X10^-2)= [HBr] / [H2]^1/2*[Br]^1/2
∴ Kc for the second reaction = √(1/7.04X10^-2) = 3.769
