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

Chemistry

Goryan [66]2 years ago

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.

How many grams of zinc would be required to produce 9.65g of zinc hydroxide
Effectus [21]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

How many grams of zinc would be required to produce 9.65g of zinc hydroxide

Zn+2MnO₂+H₂O→Zn(OH)₂+Mn₂O₃

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of zinc required is 6.35 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of zinc hydroxide = 9.65 g

Molar mass of zinc hydroxide = 99.4 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of zinc hydroxide}=\frac{9.65g}{99.4g/mol}=0.0971mol

The given chemical equation follows:

Zn+2MnO_2+H_2O\rightarrow Zn(OH)_2+Mn_2O_3

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of zinc hydroxide is produced from 1 mole of zinc

So, 0.0971 moles of zinc hydroxide will be produced from = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0971=0.0971mol of zinc

Now, calculating the mass of zinc from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of zinc = 65.4 g/mol

Moles of zinc = 0.0971 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.0971mol=\frac{\text{Mass of zinc}}{65.4g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of zinc}=(0.0971mol\times 65.4g/mol)=6.35g

Hence, the mass of zinc required is 6.35 grams

Calculate the volume of a balloon that can hold 113.4 g of nitrogen dioxide, NO2 gas at STP-
Karolina [17]

Answer:

55.18 L

Explanation:

First we convert 113.4 g of NO₂ into moles, using its molar mass:

  • 113.4 g ÷ 46 g/mol = 2.465 mol

Then we<u> use the PV=nRT formula</u>, where:

  • P = 1atm & T = 273K (This means STP)
  • n = 2.465 mol
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • V = ?

Input the data:

  • 1 atm * V = 2.465 mol * 0.082atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 273 K

And <u>solve for V</u>:

  • V = 55.18 L

What is the basis for the classification of changes in matter into physical and chemical changes quizlet
laiz [17]

Explanation:

The basis for classifying changes in matter into physical and chemical change is to see if a material is altered after going through a process.

In a physical change only the state of matter is usually altered especially its form or shape.

Chemical change alters a substance by producing new kinds that are totally different from it.

  • In  a chemical change, new kinds of matter are usually formed.
  • Such changes are usually irreversible.
  • Change of state is a reversible process.

Why is there Roman numerals (II) in copper(II) chloride, but no (III) in Aluminum chloride?
Neporo4naja [7]

This is because copper is a transition metals.

Transition metals don't have a definite charge, you can see this on the periodic table. However, Alkali Earth, Alkali, Metalloids, Non-metals, Halogens, Noble Gases, etc, all have a specified charge.

Although, there are exceptions: Zinc, Gold, and Cadmium.

Aluminum is a poor metal, but it has it's own charge (3+).

Therefore, Copper has roman numerals due to the fact that it's a transition metal and Aluminum is a poor metal.

Hope this helps!
