Scientists Pam and Alejandro were discussing a liquid found in the science lab that was missing it's label. In classifying the u

nknown liquid, they first needed to determine if the liquid is a mixture or pure substance. How is a pure substance different from a mixture
Mixtures cannot be separated by physical means.


A pure substance is heterogeneous.


Pure substances cannot be separated by physical means.


A mixture is made of one substance.

The correct answer is option C. Pure substances cannot be separated by physical means.

Matter is composed of mixtures and pure substances. Pure substances can be further simplified into elements and compounds. Mixtures are physically combined of different components. Pure substances cannot be separated by physical means whereas mixtures can be separated by physical means such as decantation, sedimentation, filtration, distillation and more.

What volume of 0.200 m hcl is required for the complete neutralization of 2.00 g of nahco3 (sodium bicarbonate)?
Umnica [9.8K]
The reaction between HCl and NaHCO3 will be;
HCl + NaHCO3 = NaCl + CO2 + H2O
The relative formula mass of NaHCO3 is 84 g/mol
Moles of NaHCO3 in 2 g will be; 2/84 =0.0238 moles
The mole ratio of HCl and NaHCO3 is 1;1
Thus, the number of moles of HCl is 0.0238 moles
 The volume of HCl will be;
  = 0.0238 moles/0.2 
  = 0.119 liters or 119 cm³

How can you simulate the radioactive half-life of an element?
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

TRIAL 1:

For “Event 0”, put 100 pennies in a large plastic or cardboard container.

For “Event 1”, shake the container 10 times. This represents a radioactive decay event.

Open the lid. Remove all the pennies that have turned up tails. Record the number removed.

Record the number of radioactive pennies remaining.

For “Event 2”, replace the lid and repeat steps 2 to 4.

Repeat for Events 3, 4, 5 … until no pennies remain in the container.

TRIAL 2:

Repeat Trial 1, starting anew with 100 pennies.

Calculate for each event the average number of radioactive pennies that remain after shaking.

Plot the average number of radioactive pennies after shaking vs. the Event Number. Start with Event 0, when all the pennies are radioactive. Estimate the half-life — the number of events required for half of the pennies to decay.

When 11.2 liters of hydrogen gas is made by adding zinc to sulfuric acid, what mass
IgorC [24]

32.7 g Zn

Explanation:

First convert the amount of gas into moles:

11.2 L H2 × (1 mol H2/22.4 L H2) = 0.500 mol H2

Then use the molar ratio to find the amount of zinc necessary to produce the amount of gas above:

0.500 mol H2 × (1 mol Zn/1 mol H2)

= 0.500 mol Zn

Now use the molar mass of zinc to find the number of grams of zinc for the reaction to occur:

0.500 mol Zn × (65.38 g Zn/1 mol Zn)

= 32.7 g Zn

What is the pH of a 0.056 m hno3 solution
denpristay [2]

Answer : The pH of the solution is, 1.25

Explanation : Given,

Concentration (C) = 0.056 M

The equilibrium reaction will be,

HNO_3\rightleftharpoons H^++NO_3^-

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that

1 mole of HNO_3 dissociate to give 1 mole of H^+ ion

So, the concentration of H^+ = the concentration of HNO_3 = 0.056 M

Now we have to calculate the pH.

pH=-\log [H^+]

pH=-\log (0.056)

pH=1.25

Therefore, the pH of the solution is, 1.25
