Answer:

They add to its hardness.

Explanation:

Hello,

Water in ecosystems are likely to have dissolved metallic cations such those alkalies and alkaline earth metals form when present in aqueous systems, in this manner, more specifically speaking, calcium ions promote the formation of unsoluble salts such as calcium carbonate, which lead to the increase of the water's hardness that accounts for such cation's content into the water. Therefore, among the following options:

A. They reduce its pH.

B. They decrease its salinity.

C. They add to its hardness.

D. They increase its acidity.

The correct is C. They add to its hardness.

Best regards.

An oxybromate compound, kbrox, where x is unknown, is analyzed and found to contain 43.66 % br.
aniked [119]

Answer is: an oxybromate compound is KBrO₄ (x = 4).

ω(Br) = 43.66% ÷ 100%.

ω(Br) = 0.4366; mass percentage of bromine.

If we take 100 grams of compound:

m(Br) = ω(Br) · 100 g.

m(Br) = 0.4366 · 100 g.

m(Br) = 43.66 g; mass of bromine.

n(Br) = m(Br) ÷ M(Br).

n(Br) = 43.66 g ÷ 79.9 g/mol,

n(Br) = 0.55 mol; amoun of bromine.

From chemical formula (KBrOₓ), amount of potassium is equal to amount of bromine: n(Br) = n(K).

m(K) = 0.55 mol · 39.1 g/mol.

m(K) = 21.365 g; mass of potassium in the compound.

m(O) = 100 g - 21.365 g - 43.66 g.

m(O) =34.97 g; mass of oxygen.

n(O) = 34.97 g ÷ 16 g/mol.

n(O) = 2.185 mol.

n(K) : n(Br) : n(O) = 0.55 mol : 0.55 mol : 2.185 mol /÷ 0.55 mol.

n(K) : n(Br) : n(O) = 1 : 1 : 4.

Cubes are three-dimensional square shapes that have equal sides. What is the density of a cube that has a mass of 12.6 g and a m
AysviL [449]

Answer:

0.1828g/cm³

Explanation:

density= mass÷volume

m= 12.6g

v= 4.1×4.1×4.1 = 68.921cm³

•

density= 12.6÷68.921 = 0.1828g/cm³

How many hydrogen atoms are in each molecule of trisilylamine?
lord [1]

Answer:

  • <u>9</u>

Explanation:

The amine functional group is obtained by subsititution of one or more hydrogen atoms in the ammonia compound.

Ammonia is NH₃.

Then,

  • by substituting one hydrogen you obtain R - NH₂.

  • by substituting two hydrogens you obtain R' - NH - R''

  • by subsituting the three hydrogens you obtain:

                        R'''

                         |

                 R' -  N - R''

In this case, the three subsitutuents are silyl groups. The silyl group is derived form silane and is SiH₃. So, the tcompound <em>trisilylamine</em> is:

                    SiH₃

                      |

          SiH₃ -  N - SiH₃

Thus, you can count 3 hydrogen atoms for every silylgroup for a total of <u><em>9 hydrogen atoms in each molecule of trisilylamine.</em></u>
