In a capillary tube, how do we tell which side of the meniscus has higher or lower pressure

Chemistry

Answer:

A liquid with a sharp contact angle (e.g., water on glass) will form a concave meniscus, and the liquid pressure under the meniscus will be smaller than the atmospheric pressure

Explanation:

The phenomenon of capillarity is produced by the action of the surface tension of the fluids and is observed when a small diameter tube is immersed within the fluid. If we pay attention to the result, we can see that, depending on the fluid, two different things can happen, that the liquid rises through the tube and that the level inside the tube is greater than that of the liquid or that the opposite happens.

The case in which the liquid rises above the tube occurs when the liquid "wets". This occurs when the adhesion forces with the walls exceed those of cohesion between the fluid molecules. In this case, the concave side is out of the fluid.

The case where the level of the liquid inside the tube is lower than the level of the liquid occurs when the liquid does not get wet. We remember that the liquid does not get wet when the cohesion forces are greater than those of adhesion. This phenomenon is called capillary depression and the concave angle is for the liquid side and is said to be convex.

How many grams of hydrochloric acid will react completely with a block of gold is 3.2 cm by 3.8 cm by 2.8 cm, if the density of
JulijaS [17]
Answer:
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Explanation:
1- we will get the mass of the reacting gold:
volume of gold = length * width * height
volume of gold = 3.2 * 3.8 * 2.8 = 34.048 cm^3 = 34.048 ml<span>
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume
mass of gold = </span>19.3 * 34.048 = 657.1264 grams

2- we will get the number of moles of the reacting gold:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 657.1264 / 196.96657 
number of moles = 3.3362 moles

3- we will get the number of moles of the HCl:
First, we will balanced the given equation. The balanced equation will be as follows:
Au + 2HCl ......> AuCl2 + H2
This means that one mole of Au reacts with 2 moles of HCl.
Therefore 3.3362 moles will react with 2*3.3362 = 6.6724 moles of HCL

4- we will get the mass of the HCl:
From the periodic table:
molar mass of H = 1 gram
molar mass of Cl = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 grams/mole
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore:
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of HCl = 6.6724 * 36.5
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Hope this helps :)
