The salt causes the water to freeze at a lower temperature. When a solute, aka salt, is introduced to the system, the freezing point is lowered. This makes the water freeze at a lower temperature.

The total thermal energy of a system depends jointly on the temperature, total number of in the system _______________, and the
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

Molecules/State

Explanation:

We know from the kinetic molecular theory that matter is made up of molecules. These molecules are in constant motion at various velocities and energies.

The total thermal energy refers to the total kinetic energies of these particles. It depends on the temperature of the system, the energies of the molecules present in the material and the arrangement of the object's molecules (states of matter).

Which of the following best describes the process of electroplating?
sweet-ann [11.9K]
I think the correct answer would be B. The process of electroplating uses a direct current in order to give a cheap metal the apperance and resistance of a more expensive metal by coating it with a certain metal. The current reduces the dissolved metal ions to form a thin coating on a surface.

Two moles of gas A spontaneously convert to 3 moles of gas b in a container where the temperature and pressure are held constant
erica [24]

At constant temperature and pressure, If the amount of gas increases to the given value, its volume also increases to 20.85L.

<h3>What is Avogadro's law?</h3>

Avogadro's law states that "equal volumes of all gases, at the same temperature and pressure, have the same number of molecules."

It is expressed as;

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

Given the data in the question;

  • Initial amount of gas n₁ = 2moles
  • Initial volume v₁ = 13.9L
  • Final amount of gas n₁ = 3moles
  • Final volume v₂ = ?

V₁/n₁ = V₂/n₂

V₁n₂ = V₂n₁

V₂ = V₁n₂ / n₁

V₂ = (13.9L × 3moles) / 2moles

V₂ = 41.7molL / 2mol

V₂ = 20.85L

At constant temperature and pressure, If the amount of gas increases to the given value, its volume also increases to 20.85L.

What is the complete set of quantum numbers for the fifth electron added to a hydrogen ion?
N76 [4]
1s2 2s2 2p1

fifth electron is in 2p orbital 

so answer is  2 2 -1 -1/2 , or 2 2 -1 1/2

*1/2 and -1/2 are spins, so they are interchangeable when writing the first electron in the ml
