The molecules of a substance must have what characteristics in order to be flexible

Chemistry
1 answer:
Goryan [66]3 years ago
6 0
Answer:
            <span>The molecules of a substance which must have the <u>a</u></span><u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.

Explanation:
                   Those substances are said to be flexible which can be bent without breaking. There are many substances which are hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.

Which of the following measurements is equal to 2.3 dL?
Verdich [7]
2.3 dL = .23 liters. d=deci=10^-1 so you move the decimal place back once.

It's D because micro is 10^-6 (move the decimal place back 6 times) 230,000x10^-6=.23 liters or 2.3 dL.

Zinc metal and aqueous silver nitrate react to give Zn(NO3)2(aq) plus silver metal. When 5.00 g of Zn(s) and solution containing
Fittoniya [83]

Answer : The percent yield is, 83.51 %

Solution : Given,

Mass of Zn = 5.00 g

Mass of AgNO_3 = 25.00 g

Molar mass of Zn = 65.38 g/mole

Molar mass of AgNO_3 = 168.97 g/mole

Molar mass of Ag = 107.87 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Zn and AgNO_3.

\text{ Moles of }Zn=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Zn}{\text{ Molar mass of }Zn}=\frac{5.00g}{65.38g/mole}=0.0765moles

\text{ Moles of }AgNO_3=\frac{\text{ Mass of }AgNO_3}{\text{ Molar mass of }AgNO_3}=\frac{25.00g}{168.97g/mole}=0.1479moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

Zn+2AgNO_3\rightarrow Zn(NO_3)_2+2Ag

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of AgNO_3 react with 1 mole of Zn

So, 0.1479 moles of AgNO_3 react with \frac{0.1479}{2}=0.07395 moles of Zn

From this we conclude that, Zn is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and AgNO_3 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of Ag

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of AgNO_3 react to give 2 mole of Ag

So, 0.1479 moles of AgNO_3 react to give 0.1479 moles of Ag

Now we have to calculate the mass of Ag

\text{ Mass of }Ag=\text{ Moles of }Ag\times \text{ Molar mass of }Ag

\text{ Mass of }Ag=(0.1479moles)\times (107.87g/mole)=15.95g

Theoretical yield of Ag = 15.95 g

Experimental yield of Ag = 13.32 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield.

\% \text{ yield}=\frac{\text{ Experimental yield of }Ag}{\text{ Theretical yield of }Ag}\times 100

\% \text{ yield}=\frac{13.32g}{15.95g}\times 100=83.51\%

Therefore, the percent yield is, 83.51 %
