Answer:

Redox reaction and single displacement

Explanation:

This reaction is first of all a redox reaction. A redox reaction is a reaction that involves both oxidation and reduction. Oxidation involves increase in oxidation number while reduction involves decrease in oxidation number.

Copper (Cu) had an oxidation number of "0" as a reactant but had an oxidation number of "2+" in the product [Cu(NO₃)₂] hence oxidation occurred.

Nitrogen (N) had an oxidation number of "5+" in the reactant (HNO₃) but had an oxidation number of "4+" in the product (NO₂) hence reduction also occurred.

Also, from the reaction, it can be deduced that copper (Cu) displaced hydrogen (H) from the nitric acid (HNO₃) solution to form copper (II) nitrate [Cu(NO₃)₂]. It should be noted that copper can displace hydrogen because it is higher than hydrogen in the electrochemical series. Hence, this reaction can also be called a single displacement reaction. A single displacement reaction is a reaction in which an atom of an element replaces another atom in a compound (as seen in the equation given in the question).

Calculate the density of the four solutions. All of the solutions has the volume equal to 25 ml. Red solution has 25.0 g of mass
Scilla [17]

Answer:

              B. Green solution density is 1.06 g/ml and blue solution density is 1.20 g/ml

Explanation:

Density is given as,

                               D = Mass / Volume

Red Solution,

                               D = 25 g / 25 mL

                               D = 1 g/mL

Green Solution,

                               D = 26.5 g / 25 mL

                               D = 1.06 g/mL

Yellow Solution,

                               D = 28.2 g / 25 mL

                               D = 1.128 g/mL

Blue Solution,

                               D = 30 g / 25 mL

                               D = 1.20 g/mL

Choose two of the following scientists: Anton Lavoisier, John Dalton, JJ Thomson, Robert Millikan, Ernest Rutherford, James Chad
OverLord2011 [107]

Ernest Rutherford

J. J Thomson

Explanation:

<u>Ernest Rutherford</u>

In 1911, Ernest Rutherford, a New Zealand chemist performed the gold foil experiment where he gave the modelling of the atom a boost.

 Experiment

 In his experiment, he bombarded a thin gold foil with alpha particles generated from a radioactive source. He found that most of the alpha particles passed through the gold foil while a few of them were deflected back.

 Discovery and reflection on the atomic theory

To account for his observation, Rutherford suggested an atomic model in which an atom has small positively charged center where nearly all the mass is concentrated.

<u>J. J Thomson</u>

Experiment

In 1897 J.J Thomson performed experiments using the gas discharge tube that led to the discovery of the electrons. He called them cathode rays because they originate from the cathode and exits at the anode.

Discovery and reflection on the atomic theory

From his experiment on the gas discharge tube, Thomson was able determine the properties of cathode rays some of which are:

  • they move in a straight line
  • they possess kinetic energy
  • they attract positive charges and repels negative charges

Using his observation, he proposed the plum pudding model of the atom where it is made up of entirely electrons.

2. How much heat is released when 432g of water cools down from 710C to 180C?
nadya68 [22]
The heat released by the water when it cools down by a temperature difference AT

is Q = mC,AT

where

m=432 g is the mass of the water

C, = 4.18J/gºC

is the specific heat capacity of water

AT = 71°C -18°C = 530

is the decrease of temperature of the water

Plugging the numbers into the equation, we find

Q = (4329)(4.18J/9°C)(53°C) = 9.57. 104J

and this is the amount of heat released by the water.

Explain why the column of a fractional distillation apparatus should be aligned as near to the vertical as possible
____ [38]
<span><span>The column of a fractional distillation apparatus should be aligned vertical to get better separation because the column is essentially longer. It will prevent channeling in the column. </span>Therefore column efficiency will be higher if it is as vertical as possible instead of tilted.<span> Distillation is a process used to separate a mixture of two (or more) components. In a typical </span>fractional distillation, a liquid mixture is heated in the distilling flask and the process begins.</span>
