<h2>Answer</h2>

Liquid in thermometer chnages on the basis of changing temperature

<h2>Explanation</h2>

Mercury is the most commonly used liquid in a thermometer. The thermometric property of mercury is that it expand or contract with change in temperature. With a rise in temperature, the liquid gets heated and expand and when temperature reduces, the liquid moves down to the tube. This thermometric property  of mercury is used to measure temperature.

Most liquids expand when they are heated and contract when they are cooled.

A thermometer consists of a bulb of liquid connected to a thin capillary tube.

When the liquid is heated, it expands and moves up the capillary column. When the liquid cools, it contracts and moves back down the column.

You can determine the temperature by reading the position of the liquid against a graduated temperature scale.

What are these associated with the solar wind
Serjik [45]

Answer:

The solar wind is a stream of charged particles released from the upper atmosphere of the Sun, called the corona. ... Its particles can escape the Sun's gravity because of their high energy resulting from the high temperature of the corona, which in turn is a result of the coronal magnetic field.

Copper oxide, CuO, reacts with hydrochloric acid, HCI, to produce copper chloride, CuCL2 and water
spayn [35]

Explanation:

El óxido de cobre (II), también llamado antiguamente óxido cúprico ({\displaystyle {\ce {CuO}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO}}}), es el óxido de cobre con mayor número de oxidación. Como mineral se conoce como tenorita.

{\displaystyle {\ce {2Cu + O2 = 2CuO}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {2Cu + O2 = 2CuO}}}

Aquí, se forma junto con algo de óxido de cobre (I) como un producto lateral, por lo que es mejor prepararlo por calentamiento de nitrato de cobre (II), hidróxido de cobre (II) o carbonato de cobre (II):

{\displaystyle {\ce {2 Cu(NO3)2 = 2 CuO + 4 NO2+ O2}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {2 Cu(NO3)2 = 2 CuO + 4 NO2+ O2}}}

{\displaystyle {\ce {Cu(OH)2 (s) = CuO (s) + H2O (l)}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {Cu(OH)2 (s) = CuO (s) + H2O (l)}}}

{\displaystyle {\ce {CuCO3 = CuO + CO2}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuCO3 = CuO + CO2}}}

El óxido de cobre (II) es un óxido básico, así se disuelve en ácidos minerales tales como el ácido clorhídrico, el ácido sulfúrico o el ácido nítrico para dar las correspondientes sales de cobre (II):

{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + 2 HNO3 = Cu(NO3)2 + H2O}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + 2 HNO3 = Cu(NO3)2 + H2O}}}

{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + 2 HCl =CuCl2 + H2O}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + 2 HCl =CuCl2 + H2O}}}

{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + H2SO4 = CuSO4 + H2O}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + H2SO4 = CuSO4 + H2O}}}

Reacciona con álcali concentrado para formar las correspondientes sales cuprato.

{\displaystyle {\ce {3 XOH + CuO + H2O = X3[Cu(OH)6]}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {3 XOH + CuO + H2O = X3[Cu(OH)6]}}}

Puede reducirse a cobre metálico usando hidrógeno o monóxido de carbono:

{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + H2 = Cu + H2O}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + H2 = Cu + H2O}}}

{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + CO = Cu + CO2}}}{\displaystyle {\ce {CuO + CO = Cu + CO2}}}

Please help me with this chemistry problem
Margarita [4]

Answer:

50 g of K₂CO₃ are needed

Explanation:

How many grams of K₂CO₃ are needed to make 500 g of a 10% m/m solution?

We analyse data:

500 g is the mass of the solution we want

10% m/m is a sort of concentration,  in this case means that 10 g of solute (K₂CO₃) are contained in 100 g of solution

Therefore we can solve this, by a rule of three:

In 100 g of solution we have 10 g of K₂CO₃

In 500 g of solution we may have, (500 . 10) / 100 = 50 g of K₂CO₃

The addition of 250.0 J to 30.0 g of copper initially at 22.0°C will change its temperature to what final value? (Specific heat
WINSTONCH [101]

Answer:

Final temperature = 43.53^{\circ} C

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat added, Q = 250 J

Mass, m = 30 g

Initial temperature, T₁ = 22°C

The Specific heat of Cu= 0.387 J/g °C

We know that, heat added due to the change in temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=mc(T_2-T_1)\\\\\dfrac{Q}{mc}=(T_2-T_1)\\\\T_2=\dfrac{Q}{mc}+T_1

Put all the values,

T_2=\dfrac{250}{30\times 0.387}+22\\\\=43.53^{\circ} C

So, the final temperature is equal to 43.53^{\circ} C.
