Identify some other substances (besides KCl) that might give a positive test for chloride upon addition of AgNO3. do you think i

Answer:

-The other substances that give a positive test with AgNO3 are other chlorides present, iodides and bromide.

-It is reasonable to exclude iodides and bromides but it is not reasonable to exclude other chlorides

Explanation:

In the qualitative determination of halogen ions, silver nitrate solution(AgNO3) is usually used. Now, various halide ions will give various colours of precipitate when mixed with with silver nitrate. For example, chlorides(Cl-) normally yield a white precipitate, bromides(Br-) normally yield a cream precipitate while iodides (I-) normally yield a yellow precipitate. Thus, all these ions or some of them may be present in the system.

With that being said, if other chlorides are present, they will also yield a white precipitate just like KCl leading to a false positive test for KCl. However, since other halogen ions yield precipitates of different colours, they don't lead to a false test for KCl. Thus, we can exclude other halides from the tendency to give us a false positive test for KCl but not other chlorides.

How many moles of helium are needed to fill a balloon to a volume of 5.3 L at 22 ℃ and 632 mmHg?
son4ous [18]

Answer:

0.18 moles

Explanation:

Applying,

PV = nRT................... Equation 1

Where P = pressure, V = volume, n = number of moles, R = molar gas constant, T = temperature.

make n the subject of the equation

n = PV/RT............... Equation 2

Given: V = 5.3 L, T = 22 °C = (22+272) K = 295 K, P = 632 mmHg = (0.00131579×632) = 0.8316 atm,  R = 0.083 L.atm/K.mol

Substitute these values into equation 2

n = (0.8316×5.3)/(0.083×295)

n = 0.18 moles

A solution of potassium nitrate is made when potassium nitrate dissolves in water.
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

Boil the water and stir in potassium nitrate. If it doesn't all dissolve, you can cook it on the stove or microwave it until the water boils again. Remove the solution from heat, but let it cool slowly for the best crystal formation.

Good electrical conductivity and electronegativities less than 1.7 are the properties and characteristic of Group 2 elements at STP.

<h3>What are the properties of group 2 elements?</h3>

Group 2 elements are metals so they are good conductors of heat and electricity. It has electronegativity values less than 1.7 and very reactive. They form 2+ charge in cationic form and also formed ionic bonds with other negatively charged elements.

So we can conclude that good electrical conductivity and electronegativities less than 1.7 are the properties and characteristic of Group 2 elements at STP.

Energy in Devices. An engineer needs to design a device that transforms light energy into sound energy. Describe a design for a
N76 [4]

Answer:

built a special cavity where the electromagnetic quantum states resonate with the natural vibrations of the atoms. In doing so, one cancouple a photon-based oscillator to a mechanical oscillator, controlling the mechanical quantum states with visible light. The result is a prototype of a quantum transducer, a device that converts light energy into mechanical energy (sound energy)

Explanation:

Sound energy is created by vibrating particles of medium that propagates as a wave. So in order to convert light (electromagnetic wave) to sound wave it has to be converted into electric or magnetic signals. Then these signals can be converted into sound waves.

However, if you consider the particle nature of light. It contains momentum and after collision sets the other particles into oscillatory motion but the wavelength of these vibrations is too high to be considered as sound waves.

Question 2 The metal molybdenum becomes superconducting at temperatures below 0.90K. Calculate the temperature at which molybden
LenKa [72]

Answer:

Temperature at which molybdenum becomes superconducting is-272.25°C

Explanation:

Conductor are those hard substances which allows path of electric current through them. And super conductors are those hard substances which have resistance against the flow of electric current through them.

As given, molybdenum becomes superconducting at temperatures below 0.90 K.

Temperature in Kelvins can be converted in °C by relation:

T(°C)=273.15-T(K)

Molybdenum becomes superconducting in degrees Celsius.

T(°C)=273.15-0.90= -272.25 °C

Temperature at which molybdenum becomes superconducting is -272.25 °C
