What causes a static charge

Chemistry
2 answers:
Svet_ta [14]3 years ago
6 0

Static electricity is the result of an imbalance between negative and positive charges in an object. ... The rubbing of certain materials against one another can transfer negative charges, or electrons. For example, if you rub your shoe on the carpet, your body collects extra electrons.

Answer:

Separating or rubbing materials.

Explanation:

Static electricity occurs when positive (+) or negative (−) electrical charges collect on an object's surface. There are several ways this condition can be caused.

1. According to the equation, what mass of hydrogen fluoride is necessary to produce 2.3 g of sodium fluoride?
Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

1.09 grams

Explanation:

According to the following chemical equation:

HF + NaNO₃ -> HNO₃ + NaF

1 mol of hydrogen fluoride (HF) produces 1 mol of sodium fluoride (NaF). Thus, we first convert from mol to grams by using the molar mass (MM) of each compound:

MM(HF)= (1 g/mol x 1 H) + (19 g/mol x 1 F) = 20 g/mol HF

1 mol HF x 19.9 g/mol HF = 20 g

MM(NaF) = (23 g/mol x 1 Na) + (19 g/mol x 1 F) = 42 g/mol NaF

1 mol NaF x 42 g/mol NaF = 42 g

Thus, from 20 g of HF are produced 42 g of NaF  ⇒ 20 g HF/42 g NaF. We multiply this stoichiometric ratio by the mass of NaF produced to calculate the required mass of HF:

20 g HF/42 g NaF x 2.3 g NaF = 1.09 g HF

Therefore, 1.09 grams of HF are necessary to produce 2.3 g of NaF.

Why don’t the common ions in humans (na+, k+, cl-, etc.) cluster together in cells?
mariarad [96]
The answer is because like electric charges do not attract with each other. Ions either lack or have excess electrons in their atomic structure. Ions with a positive charge are called cations. They lack electrons in their atoms so they have to pair up with negatively charged ions, called anions, because they have excess electrons. Together, they form a compound that is neutral.

10.
Amanda [17]

The best answer is:

a. Extrusive igneous rocks

In general, rocks that are formed by the cooling of magma are classified as igneous rocks. The key word however in this case is "lava," which is magma that reached the surface. This is what makes it an extrusive igneous rock, because it formed in the surface.

What is the density of lead (in g/cm^3 3 ) if a rectangular bar measuring 0.500 cm in height, 1.55 cm in width, and 25.00 cm in
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Density = 11.4 g/cm³

Explanation:

Given data:

Density of lead = ?

Height of lead bar = 0.500 cm

Width of lead bar = 1.55 cm

Length of lead bar = 25.00 cm

Mass of lead bar = 220.9 g

Solution:

Density = mass/ volume

Volume of bar = length × width × height

Volume of bar = 25.00 cm × 1.55 cm × 0.500 cm

Volume of bar = 19.4 cm³

Density of bar:

Density = 220.9 g/ 19.4 cm³

Density = 11.4 g/cm³
