The high surface tension helps the paper clip - with much higher density - float on the water. The property of the surface of a liquid that allows it to resist an external force, due to the cohesive nature of its molecules.
Basically it means that there is a sort of skin on the surface of water where the water molecules hold on tight together. If the conditions are right, they can hold tight enough to support your paper clip. The paperclip is not truly floating, it is being held up by the surface tension.
Answer:
C
Explanation:
the n value must always be greater than the l value
Answer:
0.036 g
Explanation:
<em>0.036 g of water should be produced.</em>
From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of HCl requires 1 mole of NaOH in order to produce 1 mole of H2O.
20 mL of 0.10 M HCl contains 20/1000 x 0.10 = 0.002 moles of HCl
46 grams of NaOH contains 46/40 = 1.15 moles of NaOH
<em>It thus means that the HCl is a limiting reagent in the reaction.</em>
From the equation:
1 mole HCl will produce 1 mole of H2O.
0.002 HCl with therefore produce 0.002 x 1/1 = 0.002 mole of H2O
<em>Mass of water produced = mole x molar mass</em>
0.002 x 18 = 0.036 g.
Hence, 0.036 g of water would be produced.
