Can swords shatter from cold temperatures

Chemistry

Depends on how the sword is made, what materials are used and temperature used but yes they can shatter.

When molecules cool down they stop vibrating and moving as much and so they "shrink" and the metal of the sword becomes brittle. sometimes they shrink at different phases which cause tension in the sword if this tension is strong enough it can cause the metallic bonds to break causing the sword to shatter.

hope that helps

mestny [16]

Answer:

The wavelength the student should use is 700 nm.

Explanation:

Attached below you can find the diagram I found for this question elsewhere.

Because the idea is to minimize the interference of the Co⁺²(aq) species, we should <u>choose a wavelength in which its absorbance is minimum</u>.

At 400 nm Co⁺²(aq) shows no absorbance, however neither does Cu⁺²(aq). While at 700 nm Co⁺²(aq) shows no absorbance and Cu⁺²(aq) does.

when 48 .0g of carbon reacts with oxygen gas to form carbon dioxide, no carbon or oxygen is left over. How much oxygen is reacte
Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

128g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of carbon  = 48g

Mass of carbon dioxide  = 176g

Unknown:

Mass of oxygen that reacted  = ?

Solution:

Every chemical reaction must obey the law of conservation of mass. It states that "in a chemical reaction, matter is neither created nor destroyed" .

So;

     Mass of carbon + Mass of oxygen  = Mass of carbon dioxide

Mass of oxygen  = Mass of carbon dioxide  - Mass of carbon

Mass of oxygen  = 176  - 48  = 128g
