Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

The author is probably reminding us that knowing the origins of words helps us to remember what they mean.

If "verde" means "green", the "verd" in "verdigris" probably means that verdigris is green.

However, the "verd" in verdigris domes from other languages.

It was originally Latin "viride aeris" (green brass).

In old French it became "verte de Grèce" (green of Greece). The modern French spelling is "vert-de-gris" (green of grey).

The English word "verdigris" comes from the French words.

Will the water level of the sea increase when there is global warming
alexdok [17]
Global warming will cause see levels to rise since a lot of water is stored in ice sheets which will melt.  All of the melt water will end up in the ocean causing sea levels to rise.

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

What is the molar mass of 37.96 g of gas exerting a pressure of 3.29 on the walls of a 4.60 L container at 375 K?
Phantasy [73]

The molar mass of the gas is 77.20 gm/mole.

Explanation:

The data given is:

P = 3.29 atm,   V= 4.60 L   T= 375 K  mass of the gas = 37.96 grams

Using the ideal Gas Law will give the number of moles of the gas. The formula is

PV= nRT    (where R = Universal Gas Constant 0.08206 L.atm/ K mole

Also number of moles is not given so applying the formula

n= mass ÷ molar mass of one mole of the gas.

n = m ÷ x   ( x  molar mass) ( m mass given)

Now putting the values in Ideal Gas Law equation

PV = m ÷ x RT

3.29 × 4.60 = 37.96/x × 0.08206 × 375

15.134 = 1168.1241  ÷ x

15.134x = 1168.1241

x = 1168.1241 ÷ 15.13

x = 77.20 gm/mol

If all the units in the formula are put will get cancel only grams/mole will be there. Molecular weight is given by gm/mole.

What is the formula for manganese (ii) fluoride decahydrate? (you may use a * to represent the dot in the formula.)?
Rasek [7]
These types of molecules are called hydrates. They have a certain number of moles attached to the salt. Their characteristic is being hygroscopic. That means that when they are exposed to air, they readily solvate. 

The formula for Manganese Fluoride Decahydrate will involve the formula Mn, F and H₂O. In ionic form, Manganese is Mn⁺² while fluoride is in F⁻. When they are brought together, their superscripts are 'cross-multiplied' and becomes their respective subscripts. The compound becomes MnF₂. Then, we add the decahydrate which means 10 moles of H₂O. Hence, the formula for Manganese Fluoride Decahydrate is MnF₂*10H₂O.
