Why Mike the helium balloons float while the others rest on the table

Chemistry
1 answer:
svetlana [45]4 years ago

Helium is a chemical element of the atomic number 2, an inert gas that is the lightest member of the noble gas series.


These means, Helium is lighter than air, and for this is why all other balloons may not float.


The helium balloon displaces an amount of air (Just like an empty water bottle displaces an amount of water). As long as the weight of the helium plus the balloon fabric is lighter than the air displaces, the balloon will float in the air.

Suppose you need 7.5m of Grade 70 tow chain, which has a diameter of /38" and weighs 2.16/kgm, to tow a car. How would you calcu
lutik1710 [3]

The mass of this much chain is 0.22 grams for  7.5m of Grade 70 tow chain, which has a diameter of /38" and weighs 2.16/kgm, to tow a car.

<h3>What are weight and mass?</h3>

Mass is the amount of the substance and object and the weight is the gravitational force required to act upon the particular mass of the substance.

To calculate the mass of car divide the wight to the gravity value 9.8 meter per second.

                 mass = weight / gravity

substituting the value,  

                     mass = 2.16 / 9.8

                     mass = 0.22 grams

Therefore,7.5m of Grade 70 tow chain, which has a diameter of /38" and weighs 2.16/kgm, to tow a car the mass will be 0.22 grams.

One question I still have is regarding the metric system. I don't have a clear understanding of what valence electrons are. Do v
Allushta [10]
Valence electrons is an outer shell electron that is associated with an atom, and that can participate in the formation of a chemical bond if the outer shell is not closed. In a single covalent bond, both atoms in the bond contribute one valence electron in order to form a shared pair.

The presence of valence electrons can determine the elements chemical properties, such as its valence—whether it may bond with other elements and, if so, how readily and with how many. In this way, a given element's reactivity is highly dependent upon its electronic configuration. For a main group element, a valence electron can exist only in the outermost electron shell; in a transition metal, a valence electron can also be in an inner shell.
An atom with a closed shell of valence electrons (corresponding to an electron configuration s2p6 for main group elements) tends to be chemically inert. Atoms with one or two valence electrons more than a closed shell are highly reactive due to the relatively low energy to remove the extra valence electrons to form a positive ion. An atom with one or two electrons less than a closed shell is reactive due to its tendency either to gain the missing valence electrons and form a negative ion, or else to share valence electrons and form a covalent bond.

Similar to a core electron, a valence electron has the ability to absorb or release energy in the form of a photon. An energy gain can trigger the electron to move (jump) to an outer shell; this is known as atomic excitation. Or the electron can even break free from its associated atom's shell; this is ionization to form a positive ion. When an electron loses energy (thereby causing a photon to be emitted), then it can move to an inner shell which is not fully occupied.

When forming ions, elements typically gain or lose the minimum number of electrons necessary to achieve a full octet. For example, fluorine has seven valence electrons, so it is most likely to gain one electron to form an ion with a 1- charge.

A chemist prepares a solution of zinc nitrate Zn(NO3)2 by measuring out 78.3g of zinc nitrate into a 350ml volumetric flask and
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

M = 1.18 mol/L

Explanation:

Moles is denoted by given mass divided by the molecular mass ,

Hence ,

n = \frac{w}{n}

n = moles ,

w = given mass ,

m = molecular mass .

From the information of the question ,

w = 78.3 g

As we known ,

molecular mass of Zn(NO_3)_2 is 189.36 g/mol

m = 189.36 g/mol

moles can be calculated as -

n = \frac{w}{n}

n = \frac{78.3g}{189.36 g/mol}

n = 0.413 mol

MOLARITY  -

Molarity of a substance , is the number of moles present in a liter of solution .

M=\frac{n}{V}

M = molarity ( unit = mol / L or M )

V = volume of solution in liter ( unit = L ),  

n = moles of solute ( unit = mol ),

From the question ,.

V = 350 mL

Since , 1 mL = 10⁻³ L

V = 0.350 L

n = 0.413 mol

Molarity can be calculated as  -

M=\frac{n}{V}

M=\frac{0.413}{0.350}

M = 1.18 mol/L
