In 1803AD, Osmium was discovered by Smithson Tennant when dissolving an impure sample of platinum in aqua regia, a mixture of hydrochloric and nitric acids. He was able to determine that the black powder left behind after dissolving the platinum was actually a mixture of two new elements, indium and osmium.
•Osmium is a bluish-white and shiny metal.
•Osmium is very hard and is brittle even at very high temperatures.
•Osmium has the lowast vapor pressure and the highest melting point among the platinum group of metals.
•Osmium's density is slightly more than iridium hence is credited as the heaviest element.
Answer:
CLEANER
Explanation:
Independent variable is the variable in an experiment that is changed or manipulated by the experimenter in order to bring about a measurable response.
In this question, Marie notices that the current cleaner she is using on her shower is not cutting through the hard water build-up that has accumulated. She decides to purchase 3 other cleaners to see if one of them will do a better job of cutting through the stains. The CLEANERS being changed in this experiment is the INDEPENDENT VARIABLE.
Answer:
Explanation:
The change in enthalpy of a substance when heated is given by
ΔH = m x Csp x ΔT
so the enthalpy change is dependent on the specific heat , i.e its capactity to absorb heat, and is not influenced by factors such as being closer to the melting point, volume , potential energy or being a solid or liquid.
Answer:
The wavelength the student should use is 700 nm.
Explanation:
Attached below you can find the diagram I found for this question elsewhere.
Because the idea is to minimize the interference of the Co⁺²(aq) species, we should <u>choose a wavelength in which its absorbance is minimum</u>.
At 400 nm Co⁺²(aq) shows no absorbance, however neither does Cu⁺²(aq). While at 700 nm Co⁺²(aq) shows no absorbance and Cu⁺²(aq) does.
