Graphite is used to make pencil lead, which helps us in everyday life for writing in school, work, home, wherever you need to write something down.
Hope this helps!

What does the rate law tell you about a reaction?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

A. How the concentration of the reactants affects the rate of a reaction

Explanation:

Let's consider a generic reaction.

A + B ⇒ Products

The generic rate law is:

rate  = k × [A]ᵃ × [B]ᵇ

where,

  • rate: rate of the reaction
  • [A] and [B]: molar concentrations of the reactants
  • k: rate constant
  • a and b: reaction orders

As we can see, the rate law shows how the concentration of the reactants affects the rate of a reaction.

A mixture 21.7 g NaCl 3.74 g kcl and 9.76 g licl how many moles of nacl are in this mixture
slava [35]
Moles (mol) = mass (g) / molar mass (g/mol)

Mass of NaCl = 21.7 g
Molar mass of NaCl = <span>58.4 g/mol
Hence, moles of NaCl = </span>21.7 g / 58.4 g/mol = 0.372 mol

Hence moles of NaCl in the mixture is 0.372 mol.

Let's assume that mixture has only given compounds and free of impurities.
Then, we can present this as a mole percentage.

mole % = (moles of desired substance / Total moles of the mixture) x 100%

Hence,
mole % of NaCl = (moles of NaCl / Total moles of the mixture) x 100%

Total moles of mixture = moles of NaCl + KCl + LiCl

Mass of KCl = 3.74 g 
Molar mass of NaCl = 74.6 g/mol
Hence, moles of NaCl = 3.74 g  / 74.6 g/mol = 0.050 mol

Mass of NaCl = <span>9.76 g
</span>Molar mass of NaCl = 42.4 g/mol
Hence, moles of NaCl = 9.76 g / 42.4 g/mol = 0.230 mol

Total moles =  0.372 mol + 0.050 mol + 0.230 mol = 0.652 mol

mole % of NaCl = (moles of NaCl / Total moles of the mixture) x 100%
                           = (0.372 mol / 0.652 mol) x 100%
                           = 57.06% 

Hence, mixture has 57.06% of NaCl as the mole percentage.

What volume of each solution contains 0.14 mol of KCl? Express your answer using two significant figures.
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Solution given:

1 mole of KCl\rightarrow22.4l

1 mole of KCl\rightarrow74.55g

we have

0.14 mole of KCl\rightarrow74.55*0.14=10.347g

74.55g of KCl\rightarrow22.4l

10.347 g of KCl\rightarrow22.4/74.55*10.347=3.11litre

volume of each solution contains 0.14 mol of KCl contain 3.11litre.

Which is an example of chemical weathering?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

b. the layer of oxide formed on statues made of metal

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is a process whereby rocks are disintegrated or weathered causing a chemical reaction thereby leading to change in the parent rock constituents .

In chemical weathering a new substance is usually formed after the weathering takes place.

From the question the layer of statue made by metal will likely form oxides of those metals. Example Silver will react with oxygen to form an entirely new substance like silver(i)oxide.
