What mineral has the least hardness according to the scale?

Chemistry
1 answer:

The softest mineral in the Mohs Hardness Scale is talc.
Talc is often used in baby powder and corn starch, among other things. Talc cleaves into thin sheets, and it is held together only by van de Waals bonds, which allows these sheets to slip past each other. This gives the mineral its softness and it is often valued as a high-temperature lubricant.

Steel is an alloy formed mainly of iron and carbon but some other metals like chromium are also added in little amounts.

Is steel, the percentage of iron and carbon together is about 90% and the rest metals fall in the 10% part.

Although the cost of steel is low, it has a very high tensile strength and that's why it is used in tools, ships, buildings, trains and in various types of infrastructures.

What is Keq for the reaction N₂ + 3H2 = 2NH3 if the equilibrium
hram777 [196]

The Keq for the reaction N₂ + 3H2 = 2NH3 if the equilibrium concentrations are Keq = 1.5. The correct option is D.

<h3>What is Keq?</h3>

Keq is the ratio of the concentration of reactant to the concentration of the product.

The balanced equation is

N₂ + 3H₂  = 2NH₃

The equilibrium constant is \rm \dfrac{[NH_3]^2}{[N_2]\; [H_2]^3}

The given concentrations of the compounds have been:

Ammonia = 3 M

Nitrogen = 1 M

Hydrogen = 2 M

\rm \dfrac{9}{1\times 8} = 1.5

Thus, the correct option is D. Keq = 1.5.
