Why does an egg sink in fresh water but float in salt water??

Chemistry

If an object is less dense than the water around it, it will float. Because salt water is denser than freshwater, some things float more easily in the ocean—or extremely salty bodies of the water, such as the Dead Sea. You can make your own dense water by adding salt to tap water.

Use mathematics to prove that the 5.50 grams of salicylic acid (C7H6O3) used in this experiment is equal to 0.04 mol.
g100num [7]

Answer:

Please find the answer to the question below

Explanation:

In chemistry, the following mathematical formula is used to calculate the number of moles contained by a substance:

mole = mass of substance (g)/molar mass of substance (g/mol)

Molar mass of salicylic acid (C7H6O3) = 12(7) + 1(6) + 16(3)

= 84 + 6 + 48

= 138g/mol

Mass = 5.50grams

mole = 5.5/138

mole = 0.039

Approximately, the number of moles of 5.5grams of salicylic acid is 0.04moles. This is in accordance with the mole value (0.04) given in this question.

Can you help me with this with a solution
LuckyWell [14K]

The complete table is inserted.

A table is given,

Formulas used:

pH=  -log(H⁺)

pOH=  -log(OH⁻)

pH+ pOH=14

Calculations:

For A: (H⁺)=2×10⁻⁸M

Using the pH formula:

pH=  -log(H⁺)=-log(2×10⁻⁸)=7.69

pOH=14 - 7.69=6.3

Calculating OH concentration,

pOH=  -log(OH⁻)

6.3= -log(OH⁻)

(OH⁻)=5.011×10⁻⁷M

Hence, the nature of A is basic.

Similarily,

For B,

(OH⁻)=1×10⁻⁷

Using the pH formula:

pOH=  -log(OH⁻)= -log(1×10⁻⁷)=7

pH=14-7=7

Calculating H concentration,

pH=  -log(H⁺)

7= -log(H⁺)

(H⁺)=1×10⁻⁷M

Hence, the nature of B is neutral.

Similarily,

For C,

pH=12.3

Using the pH formula:

pOH=14-12.3=1.7

Calculating H concentration,

pH=  -log(H⁺)

12.3= -log(H⁺)

(H⁺)=5.011×10⁻¹³M

Calculating OH concentration,

pOH=  -log(OH⁻)

1.7= -log(OH⁻)

(OH⁻)=1.99×10⁻²M

Hence, the nature of C is Basic.

Similarily,

For D,

pOH=6.8

Using the pH formula:

pH=14-6.8=7.2

Calculating H concentration,

pH=  -log(H⁺)

7.2= -log(H⁺)

(H⁺)=6.309×10⁻⁸M

Calculating OH concentration,

pOH=  -log(OH⁻)

6.8= -log(OH⁻)

(OH⁻)=1.58×10⁻⁷M

Hence, the nature of D is basic.

Balanced equation: SiO2 + 4 HF --> SiF4 + 2H2O
Arlecino [84]
C. 25 Miles

This is because you have 12.5 moles of water and using the ratio this is 2 (molar ratio). Therefore the molar ratio for HF is 4, so 12.5 x 2 = 25 moles
