Ice floats after it crystallizes because ITS DENSITY IS LESS THAN THAT OF WATER.
When a quantity of water is cools down by reducing its temperature, the molecules of the water lose kinetic energy and slow down in their movement. As the water is cooling down, it is volume is expanding. When the temperature reaches zero degree Celsius, the water becomes ice. At this point, the ice can float on water because its density is less than that of water; this is as a result of the spaces that now exist in the ice structure.
Answer:
212.5 mL
both the original and the diluted solution have 0.765 moles of KCl
Explanation:
c1V1 = c2V2
V2 = c1V1/c2 = (1.8 M×425 mL)/1.2 M = 637.5 mL
(637.5 - 425) mL = 212.5 mL
n = (1.8 mol/L)(0.425 L) = 0.765 moles of KCl
since it's a dilution, the diluted solution has the same number of moles as the original solution, 0.765 moles of KCl
The mass is 224 grams of NaOH
