Stainless steel is an alloy (mixture of metals) that many forks, knives, and spoons are made of. To make the stainless steel, a

company mixes 4.5 pounds of chromium and 2 pounds of nickel with 18.5 pounds of iron. a. A regular spoon weighs about 25 grams. Explain how you could find out what percentage of the spoons weight is due to chromium. How much is this in grams?

Add the weight of chromium, nickel and iron to get 25 pounds. Then divide the weight of chromium by the weight of the stainless steel to get 18%. Then find 18% of 25 g which is 4.5 g.

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

Molarity of HCl=0.026092M

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is;

HCl + NaOH ⇒ NaCl + H2O

Using the formular, \frac{C_{A}V_{A}}{C_{B}V_{B} }=\frac{nA}{nB}    ..........equ1

whereC_{A} is the concentration of Acid,

          V_{A} is volume of acid

          C_{B} is concentration of the base

          V_{B} is volume of the base

          nA is the number of moles of Acid

          nB is number of moles of base

nA = 1,    nB=1 , V_{A}=20ml, C_{B}=0.022M, V_{B}=23.72mL

we will input these values into equation1 to solve for C_{A}

\frac{C_{A}*20}{0.022*23.72}=\frac{1}{1}

C_{A}*20=0.022*23.72

C_{A}=0.026092M

Which of the following statements is not correct?
Pavlova-9 [17]
Answer: This option is incorrect: <span>B. Covalent compounds are held together by much stronger interparticle forces than are ionic compounds.

Justification:

Ionic bonds, held by ionic compounds, are much stronger than covalent bonds, held by covalent compounds.

In ionic bonds one element yields one or more electrons forming a cation (a positively charged ion) and the other element accepts the electrons forming an anion (a negatively charged ion).

The anion and the cation are electrostatically atracted by each other. This electrostatic atraction force, named ionic bond, is very strong.

As result of this, the ionic compounds form strong crystals with high boiling and fusion points. A good example of this the sodium chloride, formed by the union of cation Na(+) and anion Cl(-).

The covalent bonds are result of sharing electrons and do not form ions. This bond is weaker than the ionic bond.

Which series of atomic numbers represents the ordering of consecutive elements within the periodic table?
statuscvo [17]

Atomic number is same as the number of protons in the element which is further equal to the number of electrons. As the number of electrons increases in the element, the atomic number of the element also increases.

In periodic table, elements are arranged in the groups, and these groups are columns starting from 1 to 18, elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number. Elements are placed with difference of one atomic number.

First four elements present in the periodic table is:

He atomic number is one (1).

H atomic number is two (2).

Li atomic number is three (3).

Be atomic number is four (4).

Thus, the series of atomic numbers that represents the ordering of consecutive elements within the periodic table is the last option - 1, 2, 3, 4...
