Why does the solid phase of water (ice) float in liquid water?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: SOLID WATER(ICE) IS LESS DENSE THAN LIQUID WATER

Explanation:Water molecules are bonded together by Hydrogen bonds, Hydrogen bonds are intermolecular forces binding the molecules of Oxygen with that of Hydrogen. When in an ICE state,the solid form of water will float on the liquid form of water, because the orientation of Hydrogen bonds pushes or makes the Ice molecules to stay far apart from each making it less Dense than liquid water.

How many moles of CF4 can be produced when 8.95 mol C reacts with 7.88 mol F2?
Molodets [167]

The remaining moles of C is 5.01 moles while the remaining moles of F₂ is 0.

<h3>Reaction between Carbon and Fluorine </h3>

The reaction between carbon and Fluorine is given as;

C + 2F₂  -------> CF₄

1  :    2                1

from the reaction above,

2 moles of F₂ requires 1 mole of C

7.88 mole of  F₂ will require:    7.88/2 = 3.94 moles of C and 3.94 moles of CF₄.

The remaining moles of C = 8.95 - 3.94 = 5.01 moles while the remaining moles of F₂ is 0.

What is the chemical formula and net ionic equations for all three solutions.
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

See answer below

Explanation:

As you are asking for chemical formula and ionic equation, then, I will assume that after the station #4 below, are the solutions you are requiring.

You are also not specifing if you want for example, result of solution 1 + solution 3. If you need that, please post that on another question.

Now for the chemical formula, you need to identify the elements in all 3 solutions, and also the type of compound.

<u>1. Solution 2 Potassium Chloride: </u>

In this case we have Potassium on one side, and Chlorine on the other side, the symbol for those are K and Cl. As Potassium have the +1 oxidation state, cause is the only one that it can have, when it's next to an halide like chlorine or bromine, it will form a binary salt. The halides, usually work with the lowest oxydation state. In the case of Chlorine it will be -1, so, the formula will be:

KCl

And the net ionic equation will be the chemical equation that shows how the charges and atoms are balanced. In this case it would be:

K⁺ + Cl⁻ ------> KCl

<u>2. Solution 1 Copper(II) sulfate: </u>

In this case we have a tertiary salt, The copper's symbol is Cu, and is working with it oxydation state +2. Sulfate is an anion and it's formula is SO₄ and works with oxydation state -2 instead.

The chemical formula and ionic equation will be:  

Copper(II) sulfate: CuSO₄

And the net equation:

Copper sulfate: Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻ -------> CuSO₄

<u>3. Solution 3 Sodium hydroxide:</u>

In this case, we have a compound that it's usually used in acid base reactions. This is a strong base or hydroxide, and we have the element of Sodium (Na) with the oxydation state +1, is the only one it can have, and for the other side we have the oxydrile anion OH, and together is working with the oxydation state -1. So the chemical formula will be:

NaOH

And the net ionic equation:

Na⁺ + OH⁻ -------> NaOH

Hope this helps
