Cutting a piece of paper in half proves that solids have no definite shape. True or False?

Chemistry

False. Solids have a definite shape and volume. Cutting a paper (solid) in half will alter the shape of the original solid and give it a new shape and volume instead. A solid will always have a definite shape. If not, it's not a solid.

Give the chemical formula and systematic name for aurous sulfide, which is named using the older nomenclature. spelling counts!
Bingel [31]
Aurous is a cation of gold. Gold takes the name "aurum" (Au) with atomic number of 79. In its purest form, the element is bright, slightly yellow, soft, ductile, and malleable. The charge of aurous is +1. Sulfide, on the other hand, has a charge of -2. 

Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is Au₂S and its systematic name is gold (I) sulfide.

what is the mole fraction of neon in a mixture that contains 0.628 g of helium, 11.491 g of neon, and 7.613 g of argon?​
VMariaS [17]

Answer:

0.2

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of helium = 0.628g

Mass of neon = 11.491g

Mass of argon = 7.613g

Unknown:

Mole fraction of neon = ?

Solution:

The mole fraction of an element is the number of moles of that element to the total number of moles in the gas mixture.

We need to calculate the number of moles of each element first;

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of Helium = 4g/mol

Molar mass of Neon = 20g/mol

Molar mass of Argon = 40g/mol

Number of moles of He = \frac{0.628}{4} = 0.16moles

Number of moles of Ne = \frac{11.491}{20} = 0.58moles

Number of moles of Ar = \frac{7.613}{40} = 0.19moles

Total number of moles = 0.16moles + 0.58moles + 0.19moles = 0.93moles

Mole fraction Neon = \frac{0.19}{0.93}  = 0.2

Answer:

A. Na₂SO₄ and HCl

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

Like dissolves like simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other

Explanation:

A. Ionic substances like Na₂SO₄ are composed of charged particles called ions. These ions are either positively charged or negatively charged, therefore, they are attracted to substances of opposite charges. Also, polar molecules like HCl contains two oppositely charged ends. A polar solvent consists of molecules with two oppositely charged ends, therefore, ionic substances as well polar substances dissolve in them according to the concept of like dissolves like.

Gasoline being non-polar will only dissolve in like substances, polar solvents.

C. Polar solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents Non-polar solutes are insoluble in polar solvents but are are soluble in non-polar solvents

Ionic solutes are soluble in polar solvents but are insoluble in non-polar solvents.

The statement "Like dissolves like" simply means that molecules of substances having similar chemical properties dissolve in each other. For example gasoline, a non-polar substance will dissolve only in a non-polar solvent like kerosene. Also, HCl, a polar molecule will dissolve in a polar solvent like water.
