How is a polymer like a chain of paper clips

A polymer is a really long chain of smaller molecules (monomers). It's similar to a chain of paper clips because all of the little monomers will attach to each other, forming a long strain.

The metal tantalum becomes superconducting at temperatures below 4.483 K. Calculate the temperature at which tantalum becomes su
masha68 [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is "-268.667°C".

Explanation:

Given:

Temperature,

= 4.483 K (below)

Now,

The formula of temperature conversion will be:

⇒ T(^{\circ} C)=T(K)-273.15

By putting the values, we get

⇒            =4.483-273.15

⇒            =-268.667^{\circ} C

Thus the above is the correct answer.

Which is stronger - the attractive forces between water molecules and chromium and chloride ions, or the combined ionic bond str
Tju [1.3M]

Answer is: the combined ionic bond strength of CrCl₂ and intermolecular forces between water molecules.

When chromium chloride (CrCl₂) is dissolved in water, the temperature of the water increases, heat of the solution is endothermic.

Dissociation of chromium chloride in water: CrCl₂(aq) → Cr²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq).

Energy (the lattice energy) is required to pull apart the oppositely charged ions in chromium chloride.

The heat of hydration is liberated energy when the separated ions (in this example chromium cations and chlorine anions) attract polar water molecules.

Because the lattice energy is higher than the heat of the hydration (endothermic reaction), we can conclude that bonds between ions are strong (the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions).

HC]A laboratory experiment requires 2.0 L of a 1.5 M solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl), but the only available HCl is a 12.0 M
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The amount of the solute is constant during dilution. So the mole number of HCl is 2*1.5=3 mole. The volume of HCl stock is 3/12=0.25 L. So using 0.25 L stock solution and dilute to 2.0 L.
