Answer:
Sodium hydroxide is a highly caustic base and alkali that decomposes proteins at ordinary ambient temperatures and may cause severe chemical burns. It is highly soluble in water, and readily absorbs moisture and carbon dioxide from the air. It forms a series of hydrates NaOH·nH
2O.[11] The monohydrate NaOH·H
2O crystallizes from water solutions between 12.3 and 61.8 °C. The commercially available "sodium hydroxide" is often this monohydrate, and published data may refer to it instead of the anhydrous compound.
As one of the simplest hydroxides, sodium hydroxide is frequently utilized alongside neutral water and acidic hydrochloric acid to demonstrate the pH scale to chemistry students.[12]
Sodium hydroxide is used in many industries: in the manufacture of pulp and paper, textiles, drinking water, soaps and detergents, and as a drain cleaner. Worldwide production in 2004 was approximately 60 million tons, while demand was 51 million tons.[13]
Answer:
The mass is also half of the mass of the original piece
Explanation:
Recall that the volume of a substance is defined as mass/volume. The density of substances is a constant. Hence, if a break off a piece of cement or bread such that what remains is only half the volume of the original piece, the mass of the new piece must also reduce to half of the mass of the original piece so that the volume of the material will remain constant.
Hence the answer above.
This is an exercise in the general or combined gas law.
To start solving this exercise, we obtain the following data:
<h3>
Data:</h3>
- T₁ = 22.5 °C + 273 = 295.5 K
- P₁ = 1.95 atm
- V₁ = ¿?
- P₂ = 3.69 atm
- T₂ = 11.9 °C + 273 = 284.9 k
- V₂= 56.4 ml
We use the following formula:
P₁V₁T₂ = P₂V₂T₁ ⇒ General formula
Where
- P₁ = Initial pressure
- V₁ = Initial volume
- T₂ = Initial temperature
- P₂ = Final pressure
- V₂ = final volume
- T₁ = Initial temperature
We clear the formula for the initial volume:
We substitute our data into the formula to solve:
The helium-filled balloon has a volume of <u>110.697 ml.</u>
The Juan de Fuca plate is at a subduction zone which can only occur at a convergent boundary.
Hope this helped!
