The hot water ______________ when poured into the glass containing cold tap water.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vesna [10]3 years ago
6 0
Answer:
            <span>The hot water <u>remained at the top</u> when poured into the glass containing cold tap water.

Explanation:
                   As we know every thing which floats on water has less density as compared to water. So, it means when water is heated its density decreases or when it is cooled its density increases. Don't get confused with Ice. Density of water decreases upto 5 to 6 </span>°C, below this temperature Ice formation takes place. 
                  So, when water is heated the molecules of water starts moving with higher kinetic energy. The space between water molecules increases and tends to occupy more space, hence an increase in volume takes place.  As density and volume are inversely related to each other so density decreases and hot water moves to the top.

What makes electrons jumo to other orbits around the nucleus then fall again?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

The higher the excitation state, the more energy the electron contains. When an electron absorbs energy, it jumps to a higher orbital. ... An electron in an excited state can release energy and 'fall' to a lower state.

A chemist adds of a aluminum chloride solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of aluminum chloride the chemist
andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

10.8 g

Explanation:

<em>A chemist adds 480.0 mL of a 0.169 mol/L aluminum chloride solution to a reaction flask. Calculate the mass in grams of aluminum chloride the chemist has added to the flask. Round your answer to 3 significant digits.</em>

Step 1: Given data

  • Volume of the solution: 480.0 mL
  • Concentration of the aluminum chloride solution: 0.169 mol/L

Step 2: Calculate the moles of aluminum chloride in the solution

We will multiply the volume of the solution by the molarity.

0.4800 L × 0.169 mol/L = 0.0811 mol

Step 3: Calculate the mass corresponding to 0.0811 moles of AlCl₃

The molar mass of AlCl₃ is 133.34 g/mol.

0.0811 mol × 133.34 g/mol = 10.8 g

Analyze. This reaction releases energy as heat. Explain whether the reaction is exothermic or endothermic and whether it obeys t
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

If heat is given out in a reaction, then that reaction is exothermic. If heat is absorbed in a reaction, then that reaction is endothermic.

Hence, if heat is given out, the reaction is exothermic. The heat given out does work on the surrounding thus the laws of conservation of energy are obeyed.

The activation energy of an uncatalyzed reaction is 70 kJ/mol. When a catalyst is added, the activation energy (at 20 °C) is 42
denis23 [38]

Answer:

T = 215.33 °C

Explanation:

The activation energy is given by the Arrhenius equation:

k = Ae^{\frac{-Ea}{RT}}

<u>Where:</u>

k: is the rate constant

A: is the frequency factor    

Ea: is the activation energy

R: is the gas constant = 8.314 J/(K*mol)

T: is the temperature

We have for the uncatalyzed reaction:

Ea₁ = 70 kJ/mol

And for the catalyzed reaction:

Ea₂ = 42 kJ/mol

T₂ = 20 °C = 293 K

The frequency factor A is constant and the initial concentrations are the same.

Since the rate of the uncatalyzed reaction (k₁) is equal to the rate of the catalyzed reaction (k₂), we have:

k_{1} = k_{2}

Ae^{\frac{-Ea_{1}}{RT_{1}}} = Ae^{\frac{-Ea_{2}}{RT_{2}}}   (1)

By solving equation (1) for T₁ we have:

T_{1} = \frac{T_{2}*Ea_{1}}{Ea_{2}} = \frac{293 K*70 kJ/mol}{42 kJ/mol} = 488. 33 K = 215.33 ^\circ C  

Therefore, we need to heat the solution at 215.33 °C so that the rate of the uncatalyzed reaction is equal to the rate of the catalyzed reaction.

I hope it helps you!
