Why would sand and water be an example of a heterogeneous mixture?

Chemistry

Answer: Sand and water be an example of a heterogeneous mixture because:-

  • The mixture does not have a uniform appearance.
  • The mixture does not maintain a uniform composition.
  • The sand stays suspended in the water.

Explanation:

A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which solute particles are uniformly distributed throughout the solution. Whereas in a heterogeneous mixture particles of solute are not uniformly distributed throughout the solution.

For example, sand and water is a heterogeneous mixture because here sand particles are not uniformly distributed in the water. Hence, this mixture does not have uniform composition.

Also, after sometime the sand will deposit at the bottom of water, that is, sand will suspend in the water.

The mixture does not maintain a uniform composition. A homogeneous mixture really is the same anywhere you sample it, while sand generally settles out of water when given the chance and there's likely more sand at the bottom than at the top.

Which of the following statements is TRUE? Question 5 options: The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same
amm1812

Answer:

All of the above are true

Explanation:

a) The emission spectrum of a particular element is always the same and can be used to identify the element: It's true since the emission spectrum for each element is unique. It has the same bright lines at the same wavelength. This feature is used to identify elements. For example, the study of the emission spectra of light arriving from stars allow us to identify the elements presents in the star because the light contains the emission spectra of those elements.

b)The uncertainty principle states that we can never know both the exact location and speed of an electron:  It is true since the velocity of an electron is related to its wave nature, while its position is related to its particle nature and we cannot simultaneously measure electron's position and velocity with precision.

c) An orbital is the volume in which we are most likely to find an electron: An orbital is a probability distribution map that is used to decribe the likely position of an electron in an atom.

Given that the nucleophilic substitution reaction used 5.0 mL of t-pentyl alcohol and 12.0 mL of conc. hydrochloric acid to prod
Vladimir [108]

Answer:

4.90 g

Explanation:

Given that:

volume of t-pentyl alcohol = 5 mL

the standard density of t-pentyl alcohol = 0.805 g/mL

Recall that:

density = mass(in wt) /volume

mass = density × volume

mass = 0.805 g/mL × 5 mL

mass = 4.03 g

Volume of HCl used = 12 mL

The reaction for this equation is shown in the image attached below.

From the reaction,

88.15 g of t-pentyl alcohol reacts with concentrated HCl to yield 106.59 g pf t-pentyl chloride.

4.03 g of t-pentyl alcohol forms,

= \dfrac{106.59 \ g \times 4.03 \ g}{88.15 \ g} of t-pentyl chloride.

Therefore,

Theoretical yield of t-pentyl chloride = 4.90 g

For the unbalanced equation, what is the coefficient for c5h10 ?
marshall27 [118]
The answer is the coefficient is "1".
C₅H₁₀, now you see that there is no number with this and when there is no number or digit, it means the coefficient is one.
we use the coefficients to balance the equation of the reaction in such a way that number of the atoms of the elements in the reactants are equal to the number of atoms of different elements in the product, so that both sides are equal and balanced.
