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.

If copper carbonate system is heated for too short a time, what will you notice for mass percent of copper be too large or too s
sammy [17]

Answer:

The mass percent of copper as element is the same.

Explanation:

First of all we need the reaction that is presented below:

CuCO_{3 (s)} +Heat → CuO_{(s)} + CO_{2 (g)}

The mass percent of copper (Cu) as element is the same because of during the reaction the element only transform its nature from copper carbonate (CuCO_{3 (s)}) to copper oxide (CuO_{(s)}), the latter is a solid and will remain in the system.

On the other hand, you will note that the global percentage mass will be small because of the reaction produce (CO_{2 (g)}) that is a gas and this one will escape for the system.

A + B = AB
Ahat [919]

The greatest amount of AB would be produced if the equilibrium constant of the reaction is equal to 1.0 \;X \;10^5. Hence, option D is correct.

<h3>What is an equilibrium constant?</h3>

A number that expresses the relationship between the amounts of products and reactants present at equilibrium in a reversible chemical reaction at a given temperature.

The equilibrium constant expression is a mathematical relationship that shows how the concentrations of the products vary with the concentration of the reactants.

If the value of K is greater than 1, the products in the reaction are favoured. If the value of K is less than 1, the reactants in the reaction are favoured.

Hence, option D is correct.

How do I do letter D? Someone help me please
Minchanka [31]
So for D you have to find energy right
from c you get wavelength Lambda
so on D use this
E = Hc / lambda
c is given 1.5 x 10 ^20
h = 6.624 x 10^-34
and then you get answer for energy
