What type of mountain are the andes mountains

1 answer:

5 0

The Andes range has many active volcanoes, which are distributed in four volcanic zones separated by areas of inactivity. The Andean volcanism is a result of subduction of the Nazca Plate and Antarctic Plate underneath the South American Plate.

VLD [36.1K]

Just like how heat moves from a region of higher temperature to a region of lower temperature, molecules also tend to move from a region of higher concentration to a region of lower concentration. This is called natural diffusion and is naturally happening to reach stability.

The molarity of an aqueous sodium phosphate solution is 0.650 M. What is the molality of sodium ions present in this solution? T

netineya [11]

Answer:

molality of sodium ions is 1.473 m

Explanation:

Molarity is moles of solute per litre of solution

Molality is moles of solute per kg of solvent.

The volume of solution = 1 L

The mass of solution = volume X density = 1000mL X 1.43 = 1430 grams

The mass of solute = moles X molar mass of sodium phosphate = 0.65X164

mass of solute = 106.6 grams

the mass of solvent = 1430 - 106.6 = 1323.4 grams = 1.3234 Kg

the molality = $\frac{moles of solute}{mass of solvent in kg}=\frac{0.65}{1.323}= 0.491m$

Thus molality of sodium phosphate is 0.491 m

Each sodium phosphate of molecule will give three sodium ions.

Thus molality of sodium ions = 3 X 0.491 = 1.473 m

Calculate the concentrations of all species present in a 0.26 M solution of ethylammonium chloride (C2H5NH3Cl).

Alina [70]

Answer:

0.00000223

Explanation:

pKa for C2H5NH3+ = 10.7

pKw = 14.0

pKa + pKb = pKw

10.7 + pKb = 14.0

pKb = 14.0 - 10.7

pKb = 3.30

C2H5NH3Cl is a salt of ethylamine and HCl so it will dissolve in water to produce C2H5NH3^+ + Cl^-

The base hydrolysis reaction: C2H5NH3^+(aq) + H2O(l) <=> C2H5NH2(aq) + H3O^+(aq)

This reaction is described by Kb.

Kb = [C2H5NH2][H3O^+]/[C2H5NH3^+]

Let [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+] = x,

so [C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 - x

Kb = x^2/(0.26 - x) = 2.00 x 10^-11

Let's solve for x. In this equation, It is possible to solve without the use quadratic equation. So we can assume that 0.26 - x is approximately equal to 0.26. We won't know until we do the calculation.

We get: x^2 + 2.00 x 10^-11x - 4.99 x 10^-12 = 0

With the use of a quadratic calculator.

x = 2.23 x 10^-6 M = [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+]

0.26 - x is just 0.26 M in this problem because 2.23 x 10^-6 M is insignificant.

[C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 M = [Cl^-]

NOTE:

pH = -log [H3O^+] = -log(2.23 x 10^-6) = 5.65

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

Kb is the base dissociation constant

Why is the stability of a compound considered a chemical property?

Tcecarenko [31]

Chemical property is the ability of a substance to react with other substances or to transform into other substances. The stability of a compound indicates how much it "prefers" to remain as such or to get transformed. Then the stability is a chemical property.
