Which material does not melt at any temperature?
lord [1]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Wood is a mixture of different substances. Primarily it consists of cellulose, lignin, water etc.

When we heat wood then all these substance oxidize into the atmosphere even before they could melt.

Whereas iron, sodium chloride and ethanol all are the substances which can melt at any temperature.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, wood, a mixture of different substances is a material that does not melt at any temperature.

Ann [662]

Answer:

Adakah benar anda tidak boleh mencuci rambut, minum air sejuk dan

makan ais krim atau bersukan semasa haid? Terangkan jawapan anda.

Tidak, ini tidak benar, melakukan semua ini baik-baik saja. Seperti, tidak ada yang dapat mempengaruhi kita, kerana tidak bersambung dengan sistem kita. Juga, mohon maaf jika bahasa itu salah kerana saya menggunakan terjemahan Google.

Semoga ini membantu :)

So I saw this question: If 28.0 grams of Pb(NO3)2 react with 18.0 grams of NaI, what mass of PbI2 can be produced? Pb(NO3)2 + Na
Nataly_w [17]

mass of PbI₂ = 27.6606 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Pb(NO₃)₂ + NaI → PbI₂ + NaNO₃

28.0 grams of Pb(NO₃)₂ react with 18.0 grams of NaI

Required

mass of PbI₂

Solution

Balanced equation

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2NaI → PbI₂ + 2NaNO₃

The principle of a balanced reaction is the number of atoms in the reactants = the number of atoms in the product

mol Pb(NO₃)₂ :

= 28 : 331,2 g/mol

= 0.0845

mol NaI :

= 18 : 149,89 g/mol

= 0.12

Limiting reactant : mol : coefficient

Pb(NO₃)₂ : 0.0845 : 1 = 0.0845

NaI : 0.12 : 2 = 0.06

NaI limiting reactant (smaller ratio)

mol PbI₂ based on NaI

= 1/2 x 0.12 = 0.06

Mass PbI₂ :

= 0.06 x 461,01 g/mol

= 27.6606 g

50.0 mL solution of 0.160 M potassium alaninate ( H 2 NC 2 H 5 CO 2 K ) is titrated with 0.160 M HCl . The p K a values for the
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

a) 6.12

b) 1.87

Explanation:

At the onset of the equivalence point (i.e the first equivalence point); alaninate is being converted to alanine.

H_2NC_2H_5CO^-_2  +  H^+  ------>  H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2

1 mole of  alaninate react with 1 mole of acid to give 1 mole of alanine;

therefore 50.0 mL  of 0.160 M alaninate required 50.0 mL of 0.160M HCl to reach the first equivalence point.

The concentration of alanine can be gotten via  the following process as shown below;

[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2] = \frac{initial moles of alaninate}{total volume}

[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2] = \frac{(50.0mL)*(0.160M)}{(50.0mL+50.0mL)}

[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2] = \frac{8}{100mL}

[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2] = 0.08 M

Alanine serves as an intermediary form, however the concentration of H^+ and the pH can be determined as follows;

[H^+] = \sqrt{\frac{K_{a1}K_{a2}{[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]+K_{a1}K_w}{  K_{a1}{[H_3}^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]  } }

[H^+] = \sqrt{\frac{ (10^{-pK_{a1})}(10^{-pK_{a2})}(0.08)+(10^{-pK_{a1})}(1.0*10^{-14})}  {(10^{-pK_{a1}})+(0.08)} }

[H^+] = \sqrt{\frac{ (10^{-2.344})(10^{-9.868})(0.08)+(10^{-2.344})(1.0*10^{-14})}  {(10^{-2.344})+(0.08)} }

[H^+] =  7.63*10^{-7}M

pH = - log [H^+]

pH = -log[7.63*10^{-7}]

pH= 6.12

Therefore, the pH of the first equivalent point = 6.12

b) At the second equivalence point; all alaninate is converted into protonated alanine.

H_2NC_2H_5CO^-_2    +  H^+     ----->   H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2

H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2    +  H^+     ----->   H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H

Here; we have a situation where 1 mole of alaninate react with 2 moles of acid to give 1 mole of protonated alanine;

Moreover, 50.0 mL of 0.160 M alaninate is needed to produce 100.0mL of 0.160 M HCl in order to achieve the second equivalence point.

Thus, the concentration of protonated alanine can be determined as:

[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H] = \frac{initial moles of alaninate}{total volume}

[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H] = \frac{(50.0mL)*(0.160M)}{(50.0mL+100.0mL)}

[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H] = \frac{8}{150}

[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H] = 0.053 M

The pH at the second equivalence point can be calculated via the dissociation of protonated alanine at equilibrium which is represented as:

H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H        ⇄        H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2    +  H^+

(0.053 - x)                                  x                             x

K_{a1} = \frac{[H^+] [H^+_3NC_2H_5CO^-_2]}{[H^+_3NC_2H_5CO_2H]}

10^{-PK_{a1}} = \frac{x*x}{(0.053-x)}

10^{-2.344} =\frac{x^2}{(0.053-x)}

0.00453 = \frac{x^2}{(0.053-x)}

0.00453(0.053-x) =x^2

x^2+0.00453x-(2.4009*10^{-4})

Using quadratic equation formula;

\frac{-b+/-\sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}

we have:

\frac{-0.00453+\sqrt{(0.00453)^2-4(1)(-2.4009*10^{-4})} }{2(1)} OR \frac{-0.00453-\sqrt{(0.00453)^2-4(1)(-2.4009*10^{-4})} }{2(1)}

= 0.0134                    OR                -0.0179

So; we go by the positive integer which says

x = 0.0134

So [H^+]=[H_3^+NC_2H_5CO^-_2]= 0.0134 M

pH = -log[H^+]

pH = -log[0.0134]

pH = 1.87

Thus, the pH of the second equivalent point = 1.87
