8 0

Answer:

(a) Between methanol (CH₃OH) and glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃)

(b) Between tetrabromomethane (CBr₄) and chloroform (CHCl₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is chloroform (CHCl₃)

Explanation:

The surface tension of these substances at 20 °C given in mN/m, is as follows:

The surface tension of Methanol is 22.70

The surface tension of Tetrabromomethane is 26.95

The surface tension of Glycerol is 64.00

The surface tension of Chloroform is 27.50

(a) Between methanol (CH₃OH) and glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is glycerol (C₃H₅(OH)₃)

(b) Between tetrabromomethane (CBr₄) and chloroform (CHCl₃), the substance with the higher surface tension is chloroform (CHCl₃)

The ΔHcomb value for anethole is -5539 kJ/mol. Assume 0.840 g of anethole is combusted in a calorimeter whose heat capacity (Cal
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Final temperature of calorimeter is 25.36^{0}\textrm{C}

Explanation:

Molar mass of anethole = 148.2 g/mol

So, 0.840 g of anethole = \frac{0.840}{148.2}moles of anethole = 0.00567 moles of anethole

1 mol of anethole releases 5539 kJ of heat upon combustion

So, 0.00567 moles of anethole release (5539\times 0.00567)kJ of heat or 31.41 kJ of heat

6.60 kJ of heat increases 1^{0}\textrm{C} temperature of calorimeter.

So, 31.41 kJ of heat increases (\frac{1}{6.60}\times 31.41)^{0}\textrm{C} or 4.76^{0}\textrm{C} temperature of calorimeter

So, the final temperature of calorimeter = (20.6+4.76)^{0}\textrm{C}=25.36^{0}\textrm{C}

Please Help!!<br><br> How does alpha decay change the nucleus of radioactive atom.
cluponka [151]

Answer:

When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4  and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

Is the process by which new mineral grains larger than the original mineral grains form as a result of metamorphic heat?
ExtremeBDS [4]
Recrystallization is when new mineral grains form as a result of metarmorphic heat that are larger than the original mineral grains. 
Recrystallization is a metamorphic process that occurs under situations of intense temperature and pressure where grains, atoms or molecules of a rock or mineral are packed closer together, creating a new crystal structure.
