Water has a higher boiling point than expected because of the attractions between molecules.

D. of the strong attractions between polar water molecules

Evaporation occurs when water molecules on the surface gain enough energy to enter the atmosphere. However, stronger intermolecular forces between water molecules cause them to be strongly attracted to each other and to tend to stay in the liquid phase. When the temperature is raised (when heat is applied), more molecules gain the energy needed to escape these intermolecular forces and go into the vapor phase.
Therefore the best answer is D.

For each chemical equation below, write the number of product molecules that will form from the reaction.

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a. 5 moles of CO₂

b. 2 moles of NaCl

c. 3 moles of H₂CO₃

Explanation:

1a. Carbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide according to equation below:

C + O₂ ----> CO₂

From the equation of reaction, one mole of carbon reacts with one mole of oxygen to produce one mole of carbon dioxide.

In the given reaction, therefore, 5 moles of carbon will only react with 5 moles of oxygen to produce 5 moles of carbon dioxide. Oxygen is in excess, carbon is the limiting reactant and 5 moles of carbon dioxide are produced. The equation is given below :

5 C + 6 O₂ ---> 5 CO₂

1b. Sodium reacts with chlorine to produce sodium chloride according to the equation below:

2 Na + Cl₂ ---> NaCl

From the equation of reaction, 2 moles of sodium reacts with one mole of chlorine to produce one mole of sodium chloride.

In the given reaction, therefore, 4 moles of sodium will react with only 2 moles of chlorine to produce 2 moles of sodium chloride. Chlorine is in excess, sodium is the limiting reactant and 2 moles of sodium chloride are produced. The equation is given as follows: 4 Na + 8 Cl₂ ---> 2 NaCl

1c. Carbon dioxide reacts with water to produce carbonic acid according to the equation: CO₂ + H₂O ---> H₂CO₃

From the equation of reaction one mole of carbon dioxide reacts with one mole of water to produce one mole of carbonic acid.

In the given reaction, therefore, 3 moles of carbon dioxide will react with only 3 moles of water to produce 3 moles of carbonic acid. Water is in excess, carbon dioxide is the limiting reactant and 3 moles of carbonic acid are produced. The equation is given as follows: 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O ---> 3 H₂CO₃

Five calcite, CaCO3 (MM 100.085 g/mol), samples of equal mass have a total mass of 12.2±0.1 g . What is the average mass and abs

Westkost [7]

Answer:

The average mass of calcium in each sample is: 0.978 g

The absolute uncertainty is: 0.008 g

Explanation:

The absolute uncertainty of the total samples indicated in the statement is ± 0.1 g.

When you multiply or divide quantities with uncertainties, you calculate the final uncertanty by adding the relative uncertainties together.

The relative uncertainty is the absolute uncertainty divided by the quantity:

Relative uncertainty = 0.1g / 12.2 g = 0.008

The average mass of calcium is calculated using proportions, along with the molar masses:

Molar mass of calcium: 40.078 g/ mol (from a periodic table)

Molar mass of calcite: 100.085 g/mol (given)

Proportion:

40.078 g of calcium / 100.085 g of calcite = x / 12.2 g of calcite

x = 12.2 × 40.078 / 100.085 g = 4.89 g calcium

So the total mass of calcium in the five samples is 4.89 g, and the average mass in each sample is:

Average mass = total mass of five samples / number of samples

Average mass = 4.89 g / 5 = 0.978 g of calcium

So, the first answer is that the average mass of calcium in each sample is 0.978 g ( keep 3 signficant figures, such as the quntitiy 12.2 shows, as you have only used multiplication and division).

The absolute uncertainty of each sample is the relative uncertainty multiplied by the average mass of calcium of the five samples, rounded to one decimal:

Absolute uncertainty = 0.978 g × 0.008 ≈ 0.008 g

The answer to the secon question is that the absolute uncertaingy of calcium in each sample is 0.008 g.

Chemical because the first thing disappeared and changed into something completely different. Because you got something new from what you started with, it is chemical.

Idk why its pumpkin spice latte but I'm not going to judge. I prefer drinking bleach.
