In a semi-crystalline polymer processed from solution, the presence of residual solvent will both decrease and broaden the melti

ng range of the crystals. Why? First, consider both the spherulites and the surrounding amorphous components. Next, consider only the structure found on the interior of the spherulites.

Explanation:

The presence of residual solvent is a factor that affects the glass temperature of the polymer. This is because a residual solvent decreases the free volume in a polymer. All types of polymers have total occupied volume, which is composed of an occupied volume and a free volume. The free volume is the volume needed for the polymer chains to move around. Thus, if there is a big free volume in the polymer it will decrease the glass transition temperature and will both decrease and broaden the melting range of the crystals.

In a polymer with crystalline spherulites and the surrounding amorphous, will have a bigger surrounding amorphous with the presence of residual solvent. Which will decrease the melting range of the crystals. The structure found on the interior of the spherulites is pure crystalline polymer, so probably the residual solvent will not be inside them.

What is the molarity (M) of chloride ions in a solution prepared by mixing 155 ml of 0.276 M calcium chloride with 384 ml of 0.4
sesenic [268]

Answer: The concentration of Cl^- ions in the resulting solution is 1.16 M.

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of the solution after mixing 2 solutions, we use the equation:

M=\frac{n_1M_1V_1+n_2M_2V_2}{V_1+V_2}

where,

n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the CaCl_2

n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2 are the n-factor, molarity and volume of the AlCl_3

We are given:

n_1=2\\M_1=0.276M\\V_1=155mL\\n_2=3\\M_2=0.471M\\V_2=384mL  

Putting all the values in above equation, we get

M=\frac{(2\times 0.276\times 155)+(3\times 0.471\times 384)}{155+384}\\\\M=1.16M

The concentration of Cl^- ions in the resulting solution will be same as the molarity of solution which is 1.16 M.

Hence, the concentration of Cl^- ions in the resulting solution is 1.16 M.

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons could an isotope of this atom contain?
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

The atomic number on the Periodic Table identifies the number of protons in any atom of that element. Copper, atomic number 29, has 29 protons. Finding the atomic number of an element reveals the number of protons.

To find the number of neutrons in the atom, subtract the atomic number from the atomic mass.

Veronika [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

After the glorious appearance of Full Moon, the lunar shape starts to wane, meaning it gets smaller. It's visible later at night and into the early morning, and we see a steadily shrinking shape of the lunar surface that's being lit up.
