You can separate a mixture of salt and sand by...

First combing the mixture with water and mix thoroughly until the salt dissolves..

Then you could let the sand settle at the bottom of the salt water, so you can strain salt water to separate the sand from salt water...

To get salt... you would heat up the water to let it evaporate. When all the water is evaporated, the salt will be left behind

A- is a weak base. which equilibrium corresponds to the equilibrium constant ka for ha?
vekshin1

Answer:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

Explanation:

ka is defined as the dissociation constant of an acid. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.

For the dissociation of weak acid, the chemical equation follows:

HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-

The equilibrium constant is defined by the equilibrium concentration of products over reactants:

K_a=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}

Burning a compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen in oxygen generates calcium oxide (CaO), carbon dioxide (CO2) and nitrogen di
Slav-nsk [51]

Answer:

CaCN₂

Explanation:

A compound of calcium, carbon and nitrogen CaₐCₓNₙ in oxygen will burning producing:

CaₐCₓNₙ + O₂ → aCaO + xCO₂ + nNO₂

Moles of the oxides CaO, CO₂, NO₂ are:

CaO: 3.106g ₓ (1 mole / 56.08g) = <em>0.0554 moles of CaO = moles of Ca</em>

CO₂: 2.439g ₓ (1mole / 44g) = <em>0.0554 moles CO₂ = moles C</em>

NO₂: 5.097g ₓ (1mole / 46g) = <em>0.111 moles NO₂ = moles N</em>

Empirical formula is the chemical formula that represents the simplest ratio of elements in a compound.

Having as basis 0.0554 moles (The lower number of moles):

0.0554 moles Ca / 0.0554 = 1 Ca

0.0554 moles C / 0.0554 = 1 C

0.111 moles N / 0.0554 = 2N

Thus, the compound CaₐCₓNₙ  has as empirical formula:

Ca₁C₁N₂ = <em>CaCN₂</em>

Why is the law of conservation of mass law and not a theory?
Elodia [21]

Answer:

In physics and chemistry, the law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as the system's mass cannot change, so quantity can neither be added nor be removed.

Explanation:

That is what I think on the subject

Which of the following is a correct statement about water?
BabaBlast [244]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Hydrogen bonding causes water to be strongly cohesive.

<h3><u>Explanation;</u></h3>
  • The strong hydrogen bonds give water a high cohesiveness and, consequently, surface tension.
  • Hydrogen bonding makes ice less dense than liquid water and since ice is less dense than water, it is able to float at the surface of water.
  • Water is considered the universal solvent due to its ability to dissolve or dissociate most compounds, a property that results from its polarity, where oxygen has a higher electronegativity than hydrogen.

mr_godi [17]
Atoms are made up of Protons and neutrons in the nucleus, and then rings of electrons on the outer shells! so in short, protons, neutrons and electrons. :)
