Plastics are non-corrosive and non-reactive in nature. So they are used for storing chemicals in the laboratory. They are used for strong chemicals because they do not react with chemicals neither do they corrode

Identify each of the following mixtures as either homogeneous or heterogeneous and as a solution, a suspension, or a colloid.
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Blood.

<span>Blood is heterogeneous because it has corpuscles (blood cells and platelets) physically suspended in blood plasma.   Blood plasma and the corpuscles have different properties and can be separated by methods such as centrifugation. Also, blood is considered a colloid suspension because it has the properties of both a colloid and a suspension. This is because the blood plasma acts as a colloid. More so, if blood was left to settle,then the blood cells would collect at the bottom hence taking the characteristic of a suspension. </span>

<span>Salad dressing.</span>

<span>Depending on the type of salad, it can either be a heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture. If the salad dressing is only of vinegar or any other oil, then it is a homogenous mixture. However, if it involves a mixture of vinegar and other oils, pepper, herbs, and etcetera, then it is a heterogeneous mixture</span>

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Qm  = -55.8Kj/mole

Explanation:

NaOH(aq) + HNO₃(aq) => NaNO₃(aq) + H₂O(l)

Qm = (mc∆T)water /moles acid

Given => 100ml(0.300M) NaOH(aq) + 100ml(0.300M)HNO₃(aq)

=> 0.03mole NaOH(aq) + 0.03mole HNO₃(aq)

=> 0.03mole NaNO₃(aq) + 0.03mole H₂O(l)

ΔH⁰rxn = [(200ml)(1.00cal/g∙°C)(37 – 35)°C]water / 0.03mole HNO₃

= 13,333 cal/mole x 4.184J/cal = 55,787J/mol = 55.8Kj/mole (exothermic)*

Heat of reactions comes from formation of H-Oxy bonds on formation of water of reaction and heats the 200ml of solvent water from 35⁰C to 37⁰C.
