What happens when you add salt to very cold ice?

1 answer:

4 0

When salt is added to ice , it comes into contact with the thin layer of water on the surface of the melting ice. ... This salt water has a lower freezing point, so the temperature of the ice bath can get even colder, thus freezing the ice cream more quickly.

At a certain concentration of H2 and NH3, the initial rate of reaction is 0.120 M / s. What would the initial rate of the reacti

mel-nik [20]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

The rate of certain reaction is given by the following rate law:

$rate=k[H_2]^2[NH_3]$

At a certain concentration of $H_2 and [tex]I_2, the initial rate of reaction is 0.120 M/s. What would the initial rate of the reaction be if the concentration of [tex]H_2 were halved.Answer : The initial rate of the reaction will be, 0.03 M/sExplanation :Rate law expression for the reaction:[tex]rate=k[H_2]^2[NH_3]$

As we are given that:

Initial rate = 0.120 M/s

Expression for rate law for first observation:

$0.120=k[H_2]^2[NH_3]$ ....(1)

Expression for rate law for second observation:

$R=k(\frac{[H_2]}{2})^2[NH_3]$ ....(2)

Dividing 2 by 1, we get:

$\frac{R}{0.120}=\frac{k(\frac{[H_2]}{2})^2[NH_3]}{k[H_2]^2[NH_3]}$

$\frac{R}{0.120}=\frac{1}{4}$

$R=0.03M/s$

Therefore, the initial rate of the reaction will be, 0.03 M/s

A flask with a volume of 125.0 mL contains air with a density of 1.298 g/L. what is the mass of the air contained in the flask?

horsena [70]

A flask with a volume of 125.0 mL contains air with a density of 1.298 g/L. what is the mass of the air contained in the flaskThe given are: 
1. Mass = ?
2. Density = 1298 g/L
3. Volume = 125mL to L
a. 125 ml x 0.001l/1ml = 0.125 L

Formula and derivation: 
1. density = mass / volume 
2. mass = density / volume

Solution for the problem: 

1. mass = 1298 g/L / 0.125 L = 10384g

Properties of iron, barium, and phosphorus. Explain why nails are made of iron but they are never made of barium or phosphorus.

bearhunter [10]

Nails are made up of iron not of phosphorus and barium.

As both phosphorous and barium are relatively weaker than iron ,phosphorus breaks easily and barium is also fairly weak. Iron nails are already also not that strong, but their weight and strength are sufficient.

So the nails are made up of iron.

What reaction might we use to synthesize nickel sulfate,niso4? Write equations for acid base neutralization. Include states in y

il63 [147K]

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

1. Nickel sulfate

base + acid ⟶ salt + water

NiSO₄ is a salt of the base Ni(OH)₂ and the acid sulfuric acid.

Hydroxides of transition metals are insoluble; most sulfates are soluble.

$\underbrace{\hbox{Ni(OH)$_{2}$(s)}}_{\hbox{base}} + \underbrace{\hbox{H$_{2}$SO$_{4}$(aq)}}_{\hbox{acid}} \longrightarrow \, \underbrace{\hbox{NiSO$_{4}$(aq)}}_{\hbox{salt}} + \underbrace{\hbox{2H$_{2}$O(l)}}_{\hbox{water}}$

2. Carbonate + acid

Most carbonates are insoluble.

They react with acids to form carbonic acid (H₂CO₃), which decomposes into water and carbon dioxide.

$\rm NiCO_{3}(s) + H_{2}SO_{4}(aq) \longrightarrow \, NiSO_{4}(aq) + H_{2}O(l) + CO_{2}(g)$
