KatRina [158]4 years ago

Answer:

2.739 grams of dioxin is present in 3.3 L of this water.

Explanation:

Volume of water , V = 3.3 L = 3.3 × 1000 mL = (1 L = 1000 mL)

Mass of water = m

Density of water  =d = 1.00 g/mL

d=\frac{m}{V}

m=d\times V=1.00 g/mL\times 3.3\times 1000 mL=3300 g

Percentage of dioxon in water = 0.083%

Let the mass of dioxon present in 3300 grams of water be = x

0.083\%=\frac{x}{3300 g}\times 100

x=\frac{0.083}{100}\times 3300 g=2.739 g

2.739 grams of dioxin is present in 3.3 L of this water.

The elements of which group in the periodic table release the most energy by gaining an electron?
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

The halogens located in group 17

Explanation:

The change in energy of a neutral atom when an electron is added is known as electron affinity. <em>Fluorine (F), chlorine (Cl), bromine (Br), iodine (I), and astatine (At) are known as halogens and conform the group 17 of the periodic table, the group that presents higher electron affinity.</em> This characteristic happens because of their atomic structures, it is easier for them to gain electrons because they are closer to form octets.

Here I present you halogens' electron affinities values:

  • Fluorine (F) -328 kJ mol-1
  • Chlorine (Cl) -349 kJ mol-1
  • Bromine (Br) -324 kJ mol-1
  • Iodine (I) -295 kJ mol-1

<em>The use of negative signs is to indicate the RELEASE of energy.</em>

I hope you find this information useful and interesting! Good luck!

connection between fossil fuels, CO2, greenhouse effect and climate change? must include all 4 in answer please
natima [27]

The fossil fuels, CO2, greenhouse effect, and climate change are all things that are connected with each other and contribute for each successive one to occur. The fossil fuels are heavily used by the humans. Through their burning, the fossil fuels release lot of CO2 into the atmosphere. The CO2 is the most common greenhouse gas, thus it is a gas that manages to trap the heat into the atmosphere. So as the CO2 from the burning of the fossil fuels increases in the atmosphere, the greenhouse effect also increases. The greenhouse effect is the one that manages to keep the Earth warm, which is good, but it can also pass the limit and make the whole planet much warmer, resulting in rise of the sea levels because of the melting of the ice caps and glaciers. That will cause significant climate changes all over the globe because the sea currents will change, the atmosphere will keep more heat, and the water surface will increase.

Use Boyle’s law to complete the following:
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 0.25 l

Explanation:

Data

P1 = 1 atm

V1 = 0.5 l

P2 =2 atm

V2 = ?

T = constant

Formula

          V1P1 = V2P2

Clear V2 from the formula

            V2 = V1P1/P2

Substitution

            V2 = (0.5)(1)/2  substitution

                  = 0.25 l       result

How does the number of molecules in 1 mol of oxigen compare with the number of molecules in 1 mol of nitrogen?
swat32

Answer:

They are the same.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the Avogadro's number, we take into account that for molecules such as gaseous oxygen (O₂) and nitrogen (N₂), we realize that 1 mole of these contain 6.022x10²³ moles of molecules; as we are given  1 mol each, we notice they both have 6.022x10²³ molecules, therefore, they number of molecules is the same because they have the same number of moles.

Best regards!

AgCl(s) &lt;---&gt; Ag+(aq) + Cl–(aq) What will happen to the chemical equilibrium if AgNO3 is added?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

Chemical equilibrium will shift towards the left.

Explanation:

If we look at the equation AgCl(s) <---> Ag+(aq) + Cl– (aq)

We can see that the equation is balanced and the reaction has reached the state of chemical equilibrium where amount of reactants is same as the amount of products.

If we will add AgNO3 in this solution, that will disturb the chemical equilibrium of this reaction and cause the formation of more number of silver ions.

Then the system will try to counter the problem of excessive production of Ag+ ions and the production of silver ions will become less by the precipitation of great amount of AgCl (silver chloride). This is in accordance with Le Chatelier's principle, because Ag+ that is increasing due to addition of AgNo3 should decrease in order to maintain equilibrium.

                            Ag+(aq) + Cl– (aq)            --->       AgCl(s)

When Ag becomes greater than Cl, this decreases the solubility of AgCl and it starts to precipitate out. This phenomenon is also commonly referred to be as common ion effect between AgNO3 and AgCl.


Hope it help!
