Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

Law of constant composition states that a given compound always contains its component elements in a fixed ratio.

Data

Sample 1   32.4 g of C and 373 g of Cl

Sample 2  12.3 g of C and 112 g of Cl

Convert the grams to moles and compare the ratios

Sample 1                                             Sample 2

          12 g of C --------------- 1 mol                        12 g of C --------------  1 mol

          32.4 g    ----------------  x                              12.3         -------------   x

          x = (32.4 x 1) / 12                                        x = (12.3 x 1) / 12

          x = 2.7 moles of C                                     x = 1.025 moles of C

          35.5 g of Cl ----------   1 mol                       35.5 g of Cl ----------  1 mol

          373 g  ------------------    x                             112 g of Cl   -----------  x

         x = (373 x 1) / 35.5                                       x = (112 x 1) / 35.5

         x = 10.5 moles of Cl                                    x = 3.15 moles of Cl

Ratio

        10.5 / 2.7 = 3.9                                             3.15/1.025 = 3.1

The ratio must be equal in both samples to say that the law is constant. So the answer is NO.

1) H3PO4                           3 hydrogens

2) Na2HPO4                     1 hydrogen

3) Ca(HCO3)2                   2 hydrogens

4) Ba(C2H3O2)2               6 hydrogens

What was the history and use of the periodic table?
cestrela7 [59]
<span>In 1669 German merchant and amateur alchemist Hennig Brand attempted to created a Philosopher’s Stone; an object that supposedly could turn metals into pure gold. He heated residues from boiled urine, and a liquid dropped out and burst into flames. This was the first discovery of phosphorus.

In 1680 Robert Boyle also discovered phosphorus, and it became public.

In 1809 at least 47 elements were discovered, and scientists began to see patterns in the characteristics.

In 1863 English chemist John Newlands divided the then discovered 56 elements into 11 groups, based on characteristics.

In 1869 Russian chemist Dimitri Mendeleev started the development of the periodic table, arranging chemical elements by atomic mass. He predicted the discovery of other elements, and left spaces open in his periodic table for them.

In 1886 French physicist Antoine Bequerel first discovered radioactivity. Thomson student from New Zealand Ernest Rutherford named three types of radiation; alpha, beta and gamma rays. Marie and Pierre Curie started working on the radiation of uranium and thorium, and subsequently discovered radium and polonium. They discovered that beta particles were negatively charged.

In 1894 Sir William Ramsay and Lord Rayleigh discovered the noble gases, which were added to the periodic table as group 0.In 1897 English physicist J. J. Thomson first discovered electrons; small negatively charged particles in an atom. John Townsend and Robert Millikan determined their exact charge and mass.

In 1900 Bequerel discovered that electrons and beta particles as identified by the Curies are the same thing.

In 1903 Rutherford announced that radioactivity is caused by the breakdown of atoms.

In 1911 Rutherford and German physicist Hans Geiger discovered that electrons orbit the nucleus of an atom.

In 1913 Bohr discovered that electrons move around a nucleus in discrete energy called orbitals. Radiation is emitted during movement from one orbital to another.

In 1914 Rutherford first identified protons in the atomic nucleus. He also transmutated a nitrogen atom into an oxygen atom for the first time. English physicist Henry Moseley provided atomic numbers, based on the number of electrons in an atom, rather than based on atomic mass.

In 1932 James Chadwick first discovered neutrons, and isotopes were identified. This was the complete basis for the periodic table. In that same year Englishman Cockroft and the Irishman Walton first split an atom by bombarding lithium in a particle accelerator, changing it to two helium nuclei.

In 1945 Glenn Seaborg identified lanthanides and actinides (atomic number >92), which are usually placed below the periodic table.</span>

Whats is causing the ice block to melt
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

Ice usually has tightly packed molecules at a low temperature. When it comes in contact with a higher temperature or room temperature, the ice molecules gain energy and the molecular tension increases which causes the state to change to liquid. Therefore, a <u>high temperature</u> causes an ice block to melt.

The density of potassium, which has the BCC structure, is 0.855 g/cm3. The atomic weight of potassium is 39.09 g/mol. Calculate
Nimfa-mama [501]

Answer:

lattice parameter = 5.3355x10^-8 cm

atomic radius = 2.3103x10^-8 cm

Explanation:

known data:

p=0.855 g/cm^3

atomic mass = 39.09 g/mol

atoms/cell = 2 atoms

Avogadro number = 6.02x10^23 atom/mol

a) the lattice parameter:

Since potassium has a cubic structure, its volume is equal to:

v = [(atoms/cell)x(atomic mass)/(p)x(Avogadro number)]

substituting values:

v =[(2)x(39.09)/(0.855x6.02x10^23)]=1.5189x10^-22 cm^3

but as the cell volume is

a^3 =v

a=\sqrt[3]{v}=\sqrt[3]{1.5189x10^{-22} } = 5.3355x10^-8 cm

for a BCC structure, the atomic radius is equal to

r=\frac{ax\sqrt{3} }{4}=\frac{5.3355x10^{-8}x\sqrt{3}  }{4}=2.3103x10^{-8}cm

Explain why indicators are useful for measuring pH
ycow [4]

Explanation:

pH indicators are weak acids that exist as natural dyes and indicate the concentration of H+ (H3O+) ions in a solution via color change. A pH value is determined from the negative logarithm of this concentration and is used to indicate the acidic, basic, or neutral character of the substance you are testing.
