why do you think Kool Aid comes in packets that has a very finely ground powder (finely ground means very small particles).

Answer:

Answer 1:

When you pour the kool-aid into water, the little crystals go straight to the bottom because they are heavier than the water. If you left them there without stirring, and came back a few days later, you wouldn't see any crystals on the bottom. That's because the stuff in kool-aid can DISSOLVE in water, which means that each little molecule of kool-aid gets suspended between the molecules of water. When that happens, you can't see the kool-aid anymore...it's trapped between the water molecules. When you stir kool-aid, you help DISSOLVE the kool-aid in water by keeping all of the crystals off the bottom and in the water. So you see, stirring kool-aid speeds up the dissolving,

Answer 2:

Are you referring to Koolaid in the granular form?If so the koolaid grains sink in water because the grains have a greater density than that of water. Once your stir the grains dissolve and go into solution where they remain because the dissolved koolaid is miscible with water unlike oil (floats) or gasoline (sinks). How long did you let the koolaid remain in the water before you stirred it? I would think that if you left it undisturbed for a long time (days) it would eventually mix on its own.

Answer 3:

I'm not a chemist, but I think I can answer your question about Kool-Aid. Kool-Aid is mostly sugar, which is heavier than water, so when you pour it in it sinks to the bottom. When you stir it up the sugar (and flavoring) dissolves so that you don't have any solid particles any more. Stuff that is dissolved in water will not sink because it is no longer a physically separate thing. It becomes part of the water (or water-sugar-flavor solution). What happens if you pour the Kool-Aid in but don't stir it? Will it eventually dissolve? You may have to wait a long time, like over night. Try it and let me know what you find!

Answer 4:

It all has to do with the rate at which kool-aid crystals (basically its SUGAR!!) dissolves in water relative to the rate at which the sugar crystals sink. If you just dump the stuff in, it sinks because it is denser than the water. As it sinks it dissolves. But when you stir the water, the rate of dissolution becomes greater than the rate of sinking and so the crystals dissolve before they reach the bottom. So it all has to do with the comparison between the rate of sinking versus the rate of dissolution.

Now I have an experiment for you. What happens if you mix up some Jello and instead of letting it sit still, you keep stirring it??? WILL THE JELLO EVER SET??

You may have to borrow your mom's mixing machine because you will get tired of stirring after 10 minutes!!!!

If you do the experiment let me know how it turns out. Actually, you should set up a control. Make two batches of Jello...with one, put it in the refrigerator and dont stir; with the other, keep stirring it (in the refrigerator), if you can figure how to arrange that without your mom or dad getting mad!!!

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction;

KHSO4(aq) + KOH(aq) -------> K2SO4(aq) + H2O(l)

Number of moles of KHSO4 = 49.6 g/136.169 g/mol = 0.36 moles

Since the reaction is in a mole ratio of 1:1, 0.36 moles of K2SO4 is produced.

Number of moles of KOH = 25.3 g/56.1056 g/mol = 0.45 moles

Since the reaction is 1:1, 0.45 moles of K2SO4 is produced

Hence K2SO4 is the limiting reactant.

Mass of K2SO4 formed = 0.36 moles of K2SO4 * 174.26 g/mol = 62.7 g

So;

1 mole of KHSO4 reacts with 1 mole of KOH

0.36 moles of KHSO4 reacts with 0.36 * 1/1 = 0.36 moles of KOH

Amount of excess KOH = 0.45 moles - 0.36 moles = 0.09 moles

Mass of excess KOH = 0.09 moles * 56.1056 g/mol  = 5 g of excess KOH

Consider the following unbalanced particulate representation of a chemical equation:
nevsk [136]

Answer:

H2 + I2 --> 2HI

Explanation:

The two reactants are diatomic molecules because they contain two atoms of the same element. Therefore, they would need to have a subscript of "2" next to their symbols.

When balancing an equation, you want the same amount and type of atoms on both sides. By adding a coefficient of "2" in front of the product, two H's and two I's are now on both sides.

which two atoms will form the most polar covalent bond? Electronegativity values for these elements are:O=3.44 C=2.55 N=3.04 H=2
Daniel [21]
Oxygen and hydrogen will form the most polar covalent bond(s) because the difference between their electronegativities is the greatest.
