the phase change of boiling has more kinetic energy.

boiling is a liquid ---> gas

melting is solid ---> liquid

in a liquid, there is medium kinetic energy but when a liquid is boiled it turns into a gas and gains more kinetic energy, so there is more movement and the particles move freely as there is high KE.

in a solid, there is low kinetic energy as the particles vibrate in fixed positions. a solid gains kinetic energy when it becomes a liquid (melting) and there is medium kinetic energy.

there is a higher amount of kinetic energy when a substance is boiled.

therefore, the answer is boiling.

Will lead (Pb) react with HgSO4?

lora16 [44]

Answer:

Explanation:

The electrochemical series can be used to check if a particular element has a greater activity than the other. Firstly, on the electrochemical series, it can be seen that lead is at a higher position compared to mercury. All things being equal, it will show a higher activity than mercury and hence can knock it off its salt.

Although it is the Overall standard electrode potential that tells us if a reaction is feasible or not, we can use the activity series to quickly discern if the reaction is possible or not. The overall standard electrode potential of both is positive which makes the reaction to be feasible and hence lead can display mercury off its salt

The density of lava is 3.1 g/cm². It has a volume of 2700 cm3. How much does this block of lava weigh?

konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Mass of lava is 8370 g.

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

density of lava = 3.1 g/cm³

volume= 2700 cm³

mass= ?

Solution:

d = m/v

m = d×v

m = 3.1 g/cm³×2700 cm³

m = 8370 g

If a 7.0 mL sample of vinegar was titrated to the stoichiometric equivalence point with 7.5 mL of 1.5M NaOH, what is the mass pe

NNADVOKAT [17]

First we need to calculate the number of moles of NaOH titrated.

molar concentration = number of moles / solution volume (liter)

number of moles = molar concentration × solution volume

number of moles of NaOH = 1.5 × 0.0075 = 0.01125 moles

Then we look at the chemical reaction:

CH $_{3}$ -COOH + NaOH = CH $_{3}$ COONa + H $_{2}$ O

We can see that 1 mole of acetic acid is reacting with one mole of sodium hydroxide. Then we can conclude that 0.01125 moles of sodium hydroxide reacts with 0.01125 moles of acetic acid.

Now we can get the mass of acetic acid:

number of moles = mass (grams) / molecular mass (g/mol)

mass = number of moles × molecular mass

mass of acetic acid = 0,01125 × 60 = 0.675 g

We assume that the density of the vinegar = 1 g/mL, so the mass percent of acetic acid is:

concentration of acetic acid = (mass of acetic acid / mass of vinegar) × 100

concentration of acetic acid = (0.674 / 7) × 100 = 9.6 %
