The functional group can affect the chemical properties and physical properties. Like CH3CH3 and CH3CH2OH. The first one is gas and second one is liquid. The first one is not easy to react with others while the second one is.

Could volume by displacement be used to determine the volume of a lump of rock salt? Explain would be nice
Readme [11.4K]

Yes it could, but you'd have to set up the process very carefully.
I see two major challenges right away:

1).  Displacement of water would not be a wise method, since rock salt
is soluble (dissolves) in water.  So as soon as you start lowering it into
your graduated cylinder full of water, its volume would immediately start
to decrease.  If you lowered it slowly enough, you might even measure
a volume close to zero, and when you pulled the string back out of the
water, there might be nothing left on the end of it.

So you would have to choose some other fluid besides water ... one in
which rock salt doesn't dissolve.  I don't know right now what that could
be.  You'd have to shop around and find one.

2).  Whatever fluid you did choose, it would also have to be less dense
than rock salt.  If it's more dense, then the rock salt just floats in it, and
never goes all the way under.  If that happens, then you have a tough
time measuring the total volume of the lump.

So the displacement method could perhaps be used, in principle, but
it would not be easy.

What is the moons role in causing tides ?
siniylev [52]

The gravitational pull generates this cool thing called tidal force, which kinda pushes the water to the side closest to the moon. When the tide is high, that means the moons closer to that point than somewhere else.

Two sides will always have high tide and two sides will always have low tide.

Find the ph of of 100 ml of an aqueous 0.43m baoh2 solution
denpristay [2]
Answer is: pH of barium hydroxide is 13.935.
Chemical dissociation of barium hydroxide in water:
Ba(OH)₂(aq) → Ba²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq).
c(Ba(OH)₂) = 0.43 M.
V(Ba(OH)₂) = 100 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 0.1 L.
n(Ba(OH)₂) = 0.43 mol/L · 0.1 L.
n(Ba(OH)₂) = 0.043 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(Ba(OH)₂) : n(OH⁻) = 1 : 2.
n(OH⁻) = 0.086 mol.
c(OH⁻) = 0.86 mol/L.
pOH = -logc(OH⁻).
pOH = 0.065.
pH = 14 - 0.065 = 13.935.

How does the type of medium affect a sound wave? Give an Example
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Sound waves need to travel through a medium such as solids, liquids and gases. The sound waves move through each of these mediums by vibrating the molecules in the matter. The molecules in solids are packed very tightly. Liquids are not packed as tightly.Of the three mediums (gas, liquid, and solid) sound waves travel the slowest through gases, faster through liquids, and fastest through solids. Temperature also affects the speed of sound.Sound waves in air (and any fluid medium) are longitudinal waves because particles of the medium through which the sound is transported vibrate parallel to the direction that the sound wave moves. A vibrating string can create longitudinal waves as depicted in the animation below.

How does the hydrosphere help regulate the amount of radiation on earth?
MAXImum [283]

Explanation:

The oceans and other water bodies absorb huge amounts of solar energy and radiation. Thermohaline circulation transports the absorbed heat from the equator to the poles to regulate and moderate Earth's climate.
