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

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nastasia [14]2 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 molecules are there in 8.25 moles of CaHia?
expeople1 [14]

The number of molecules : 4.967 x 10²⁴

<h3>Further explanation   </h3>

A mole is a number of particles(atoms, molecules, ions)  in a substance

This refers to the atomic total of the 12 gr C-12  which is equal to 6.02.10²³, so 1 mole = 6.02.10²³ particles  

Can be formulated :

N = n x No

N = number of particles

n = mol

No = 6.02.10²³ = Avogadro's number

8.25 moles of C₈H₁₈

The number of molecules :

\tt 8.25\times 6.02\times 10^{23}=4.967\times 10^{24}

Write einstein's equation that explains the energy from nuclear reactions. _________ use the caret symbol (^) to show an exponen
Katen [24]
I would say it should be Einstein's famous equation of e=mc^2 which means energy =mass x the speed of light squared. With this equation Einstein showed that energy comes from a mass travelling at the speed of light squared which is a fundamental equation to explain physical phenomena.

Epinephrine (adrenaline) is a hormone secreted into the bloodstream in times of stress. It contains 59.0% C, 7.15% H, 26.20% O,
vichka [17]

Answer:

C9H13O3N

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of C=12.0, H=1.0, O=16.0 and N=14.0.

We can draw a chart (please view this on desktop so to avoid spacing errors):

Let the mass of Epinephrine be 100g.

                             C                       H                          O                              N

mass(g) :              59                      7.15                    26.2                         7.65

no. of moles : 59/12 =4.9167     7.15/1 = 7.15     26.2/16=1.6375 7.65/14=0.5464

(n.o.m. = mass/molar mass)

Ratio:   4.9167/0.5464 =9    7.15/0.5464=13      1.6375= 3      0.5464/0.5464 =1

(divide the n.o.m. by the smallest n.o.m., which is 0.5464 in this case, take the whole numbers)

So, the empirical formula will be: C9H13O3N

But this is still not yet the molecular formula. We have to ensure the molar mass is 183g/mol. Multiply the empirical formula by n.

So, let the molecular formula of Epinephrine be (C9H13O3N)n.

12x9n + 1x13n + 16x3n + 14n = 183

108n + 13n + 48n + 14n = 183

183 n = 183.

n = 1

Hence, the molecular formula is C9H13O3N.
