Why are pipes bursting in the in extremely cold weather?

Chemistry

avanturin [10]3 years ago

Water is the only common substance that when you freeze it, it's volume INCREASES.

When the pipe originally held the "all full" volume and the the water expanded, it put a tremendous amount of pressure on the pipe. Enough pressure and the pipe would burst.

Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of minerals
o-na [289]

Answer:

A. Occur in gaseous and liquid state

Explanation:

The choice that is not a characteristic of minerals is that minerals occur in gaseous and liquid state.

All minerals are solid inorganic compounds.

  • A mineral is an inorganic compound that is formed naturally.
  • They have a definite and specific chemical composition.
  • Minerals are the building blocks of rocks.
  • When minerals aggregates together, they form different rock types.
  • There is no known mineral that is in fluid state.
  • All minerals are solids.
  • Examples are quartz, kaolinite, gypsum e.t.c

An equilibrium mixture contains 0.750 mol of each of the products (carbon dioxide and hydrogen gas) and 0.200 mol of each of the
sasho [114]

1.302  moles of carbon dioxide would have to be added

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The equilibrium constant is the value of the product in the equilibrium state of the substance in the right (product) divided by the substance in the left (reactant) with the exponents of each reaction coefficient

The equilibrium constant is based on the concentration (Kc) in a reaction

pA + qB -----> mC + nD

\large {\boxed {\bold {Kc ~ = ~ \frac {[C] ^ m [D] ^ n} {[A] ^ p [B] ^ q}}}}

While the equilibrium constant is based on partial pressure

\large {\boxed {\bold {Kp ~ = ~ \frac {[pC] ^ m [pD] ^ n} {[pA] ^ p [pB] ^ q}}}}

The value of Kp and Kc can be linked to the formula '

\large {\boxed {\bold {Kp ~ = ~ Kc. (R.T) ^ {\Delta n}}}}

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm / mol.K

=n = number of product coefficients-number of reactant coefficients

An equilibrium mixture: 0.750 moles of CO2 and H2, and 0.200 moles of CO and H2O

  • We determine Kc (constant concentration)

\displaystyle Kc=\frac{0.75.0.75}{0.2.0.2}\\\\Kc=14.1

  • the amount of carbon monoxide to 0.300 mol

Reaction :

                CO +H₂O ⇔ CO₂ + H₂

initially      0.2   0.2       0.75+x  0.75

reaction    0.1    0.1        0.1         0.1

product     0.3   0.3       0.65+x    0.65

\displaystyle Kc=\frac{(0.650+x)(0.65)}{0.3.0.3}\\\\14.1(0.09)=0.4225+0.65x\\\\1.269-0.4225=0.65x\\\\0.8465=0.65x\\\\x=1.302
