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

Chemistry
1 answer:
svetlana [45]3 years ago
4 0

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.

Question 9 Multiple Choice Worth 4 points)
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Would you base your career options using science?

Would you base your moral behavior on science? Science is notorious for not being able to answer moral questions.

Would you base the "meaning of life" on science? The meaning of life is hardly a question that the periodic table could answer.

The only option left is plant growth which science could answer.

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock.

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.

Bromine is less electronegative than chlorine, yet methyl bromide and methyl chloride have very similar dipole moments. why? sel
diamong [38]
Bromine is less electronegative than chlorine, yet methyl bromide and methyl chloride have very similar dipole moments. This is because the bond distance in methyl bromide is more due to the large size of bromine atom.
Dipole moment is calculated by multiplying the charge on the atom with the bond distance.

In the titration of HCl with NaOH, the equivalence point is determined
kondaur [170]

Answer:

In the titration of HCl with NaOH, the equivalence point is determined from the point where the phenolphthalein turns pink and then remains pink on swirling.

Explanation:

The equivalence point is the point at which exactly enough titrant (NaOH) has been added to react with all of the analyte (HCl). Up to the equivalence point, the solution will be acidic because excess HCl remains in the flask.

Phenolphtalein is chosen because it changes color in a pH range between 8.3 – 10. Phenolphthalein is naturally colorless but turns pink in alkaline solutions. It remains colorless throughout the range of acidic pH levels, but it begins to turn pink at a pH level of 8.3 and continues to a bright purple in stronger alkalines.

It will appear pink in basic solutions and clear in acidic solutions.

The more NaOH added, the more pink it will be. (Until pH≈ 10)

In strongly basic solutions, phenolphthalein is converted to its In(OH)3− form, and its pink color undergoes a rather slow fading reaction and becomes completely colorless above 13.0 pH

a. from the point where the pink phenolphthalein turns colorless and then remains colorless on swirling.

⇒ the more colorless it turns, the more acid the solution. (More HCl than NaOH)

b. from the point where the phenolphthalein turns pink and then remains pink on swirling.

The equivalence point is the point where phenolphtalein turns pink and remains pink ( Between ph 8.3 and 10). (

Although, when there is hydrogen ions are in excess, the solution remains colorless. This begins slowely after ph= 10 and can be noticed around ph = 12-13

c. from the point where the pink phenolphthalein first turns colorless and then the pink reappears on swirling.

Phenolphthalein is colorless in acid solutions (HCl), and will only turn pink when adding a base like NaOH

d. from the point where the colorless phenolphthalein first turns pink and then disappears on swirling

Phenolphthalein is colorless in acid or neutral solutions. Once adding NaOH, the solution will turn pink. The point where the solution turns pink, and stays pink after swirling is called the equivalence point. When the pink color disappears on swirling, it means it's close to the equivalence point but not yet.
