As electricity flows through a copper wire, the temperature of the wire increases. Some parts of the wire get warmer than others

, but over time the wire is the same temperature from end to end. What kind of heat transfer takes place to make the wire a uniform temperature?

Answer:

Conduction

Explanation:

The heat can be transferred in the substances in three ways: conduction, convection, and radiation.

The conduction happens inside the material, usually a solid, and the heat flows as the molecules of the substance are agitated. The convection happens when there are different substances in touch, so it is the heat passage from a solid to a liquid or gas, from a gas to a liquid or vice versa. The radiation occurs between substances that are far away and the heat flows by electromagnetic waves.

Thus, in the wire, the heat flows by conduction.

Answer:

The reason they don't react is because Elements with full octets are stable, the Elements with no unpaired electrons do not react at all in the decay.

450g of chromium(iii) sulfate reacts with excess potassium phosphate. How many grams of potassium sulfate will be produced? (ANS
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

600 g K₂SO₄

Explanation:

First write down the complete, balanced chemical equation for such question. In this case:

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ + 2K₃PO₄ →  3K₂SO₄ + 2CrPO₄

Next, calculate molar masses of required compounds mentioned in the question. In this case it is for Cr₂(SO₄)₃ and K₂SO₄.

  • Molar mass(MM) of Cr₂(SO₄)₃:

        = 2*(MM of Cr) + 3*( MM of S) + 3*4*( MM of O)

        = 2*(52) + 3*(32) + 12*(16)

        = 104 + 96 + 192

        = 392 g

  • Molar mass(MM) of K₂SO₄:

        = 2*(MM of K) + 1*( MM of S) + 4*( MM of O)

        = 2*(39) + 32 + 4*(16)

        = 78 + 32 + 64

        = 174 g

Here comes the concept of Limiting reagent:

The limiting reagent in a chemical reaction is the substance that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is complete. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, since the reaction cannot continue without it. The other reactants present with this are usually in excess and called excess reactants. If quantities of both the reactants are given, then one should apply unitary method and find out the limiting reagent out of the two. Then, determine the amount of product formed or percentage yield.

Also, 1 mole( 392 g) of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ gives 3 moles( 174*3 = 522 g) of K₂SO₄.

Using unitary method, if 392g of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ gives 522 g of K₂SO₄ , then 450 g of Cr₂(SO₄)₃ will give how much of K₂SO₄?

Yeild of K₂SO₄ : \frac{522 * 450}{392}

That is 599.3 g.

Since we have not considered molecular masses of individual atoms to 6 decimal places, this number can be approximated to 600g.

Therefore, 600g of K₂SO₄ is produced.

How many grams of solid NaOH are required to prepare a 400ml of a 5N solution? show your work!
Nuetrik [128]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of solid NaOH required is 80 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equivalent weight is calculated by dividing the molecular weight by n factor. The equation used is:

\text{Equivalent weight}=\frac{\text{Molecular weight}}{n}

where,

n = acidity for bases = 1 (For NaOH)

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Equivalent weight}=\frac{40g/mol}{1eq/mol}=40g/eq

Normality is defined as the umber of gram equivalents dissolved per liter of the solution.

Mathematically,

\text{Normality of solution}=\frac{\text{Number of gram equivalents} \times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}

Or,

\text{Normality of solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass}\times 1000}{\text{Equivalent mass}\times \text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}         ......(1)

We are given:

Given mass of NaOH = ?

Equivalent mass of NaOH = 40 g/eq

Volume of solution = 400 mL

Normality of solution = 5 eq/L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

5eq/L=\frac{\text{Mass of NaOH}\times 1000}{40g/eq\times 400mL}\\\\\text{Mass of NaOH}=80g

Hence, the mass of solid NaOH required is 80 g
