¿de que manera se relacionan las fuerzas intermoleculares con la flotabilidad del hielo?

La estructura del hielo, forma un retículo que ocupa más espacio y es menos denso que el agua líquida. Cuando el agua se enfría, se contrae su volumen, como sucede en todos los cuerpos, pero al alcanzar los 4ºC cesa la contracción y su estructura se dilata hasta transformarse en hielo en el punto de congelación. Por eso el hielo es menos denso que el agua y flota sobre ella. Gracias a esta anomalía del agua, los lagos, ríos y mares, comienzan a congelarse desde la superficie hacia abajo, y esta costra de hielo superficial sirve de abrigo a los seres que viven, pues aunque la temperatura ambiental sea extremadamente baja (-50 0 -60º C), el agua de la superficie transformada en hielo mantiene constante su temperatura en 0ºC. Y el agua del fondo queda protegida térmicamente del exterior, y puede alcanzar los 4º o 5ºC, que son suficientes para la supervivencia de ciertas especies. En esta propiedad se basan los esquimales para construir sus casa de hielo (iglúes).

Which best describes a compound such as sodium chloride? a) a pure substance that can be separated into different elements by ph
vitfil [10]

Answer:

d) a pure substance that can be separated into different elements by chemical means.

Explanation:

Hello,

Sodium chloride (NaCl) is a chemical compound composed by sodium and chlorine. They are chemically bonded through a ionic bond which means that the sodium transfers just one electron (valence electron) to the chlorine to form the bond. Now, if we want to separate them, we must induce a chemical process because bond breaking implies a chemical change, not physical. Thus, a typical way to separate them (break the bond) is via electrolysis in which an electric driving force induce the aforementioned breakdown.

Best regards.

What is the pH of a 1.0 L buffer made with 0.300 mol of HF (Ka = 6.8 × 10⁻⁴) and 0.200 mol of NaF to which 0.150 mol of HCl were
irinina [24]

Answer:

pH = 2.21

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the reaction between NaF and HCl as the latter is added to the buffer:

NaF+HCl\rightarrow NaCl+HF

It is possible for us to see how more HF is formed as HCl is added and therefore, the capacity of this HF/NaF-buffer is diminished as it turns acid. Therefore, it turns out feasible for us to calculate the consumed moles of NaF and the produced moles of HF due to the change in moles induced by HCl:

n_{HF}^{new}=0.300mol+0.150mol=0.450mol\\\\n_{NaF}^{new}=0.200mol-0.150mol=0.050mol

Next, we calculate the resulting concentrations to further apply the Henderson-Hasselbach equation:

[HF]=\frac{0.450mol}{1.0L} =0.450M

[NaF]=\frac{0.050mol}{1.0L} =0.050M

Now, calculated the pKa of HF:

pKa=-log(6.8x10^{-4})=3.17

We can proceed to the HH equation:

pH=pKa+log(\frac{[NaF]}{[HF]} )\\\\pH=3.17+log(\frac{0.05M}{0.45M} )\\\\pH=2.21

Best regards!

I’m trying to find the molarity of H2SO4 in this calculation. I attempted it but I still need someone to check my work. I used 1
Novosadov [1.4K]

Since it goes to completion, we can use:  

Use NaMaVa =NbMbVb  

where  

Na= moles of H+ in H2SO4  

Ma= molarity of the acid  

Va= volume of the acid  

Nb= moles of OH- in NaOH  

Mb= molarity of the base  

Vb= molarity of the base  

plug in the numbers  

(2 moles of H+) (Volume acid) (10.00mL acid) = (1 mole of OH-) (.248M base) (18.71mL base)  

20 V = 4.64  

V= .232 M
