Is the dissolution of borax in water a temperature dependent reaction or is it spontaneous at all temperatures at which water is
enot [183]

The dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction. With the higher temperature, the salt dissolve quickly.

<h3>What is borax?</h3>

Borax is the hydrate salt of boric acid. It is white and widely used in cleaning and in laundry  detergent.

Borax is a salt that will dissolve in water at almost any temperature, with the exception of steam and ice.

However, as with any salt, the higher the temperature, the faster the salt dissolves, so speed is dependent on temperature. It will dissolve in cold water, but it will take longer.

Thus, the dissolution of borax in water is a temperature dependent reaction.

What is the percentage error of length measurement of 0.229cm if the correct value is 0.225cm
Mars2501 [29]

Percent error is the difference between the measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%.

So first, we take our measured value, .299 cm, minus our known value, .225 cm.

.299 cm - .225 cm=.004 cm

Next, we divide that by our known value

\frac{.004}{.225}=.0177777778

Finally, multiply your answer by 100

.0177777778 x 100= 1.77777778 %

Round to three significant figures, and you're done.

=1.78 % error

Suppose you have a spherical balloon filled with air at room temperature and 1.0 atm pressure; its radius is 17 cm. You take the
Sladkaya [172]
<span>Answer: 17.8 cm
</span>

<span>Explanation:
</span>

<span>1) Since temperature is constant, you use Boyle's law:
</span>

<span>PV = constant => P₁V₁ = P₂V₂


</span><span>=> V₁/V₂ = P₂/P₁</span>
<span>
2) Since the ballon is spherical:


</span><span>V = (4/3)π(r)³</span>
<span>
Therefore, V₁/V₂ = (r₁)³ / (r₂)³
</span>

<span>3) Replacing in the equation V₁/V₂ = P₂/P₁:


</span><span><span>(r₁)³ / (r₂)³ </span>= P₂/P₁</span>
<span>
And you can solve for r₂: (r₂)³ = (P₁/P₂) x (r₁)³


</span>(r₂)³ = (1.0 atm / 0.87 atm) x (17 cm)³ = 5,647.13 cm³
<span>
r₂ = 17.8 cm</span>
