Why do some objects float why others sink

2 answers:

It will sink. This means whether or not an object will float or sink depends on its own density and the density of the liquid it is placed in. In the case of water, an object with a density less than 1 g/cm3 will float. The closer its density is to 1 g/cm3, the more of it will sit below the water level.

Because so objects are denser than water and some are less dense than water

The heat will flow from copper to aluminum because Cu is at higher temperature. The heat liberated is -7.60kJ

When two metals at different temperatures are kept in contact, heat flows from hotter metal to colder metal until thermal equilibrium is reached.

Here Copper is at a temperature of 60 degree Celsius and aluminum is at 40 degree Celsius. Thus, heat will flow from Cu to Al.

In order to calculate the amount of heat liberated following calculations are required.

m1=262 g

T1=87 oC

Cp=0.385 J/g oC

T2=11.8 oC

The heat liberated can be expressed as follows:

Q=mCp(T2-T1)

Q=262 g*0.385 J/goC(11.8-87)oC

Q=-7585 J

=-7.60kJ

600 s after initiation of a first order reaction 48.5% of the initial reactant concentration remains present. What is the rate c

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$k=1.20x10^{-3} s^{-1}$

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the rate law is:

$v=\frac{-d[A]}{[A]}=k[A]$

Integranting both sides of the equation we get:

$\int\limits^a_b {\frac{d[A]}{[A]}} \, dx =-k\int\limits^t_0 {} \, dt$

where "a" stands for [A] (molar concentration of a given reagent) and "b" is {A]0 (initial molar concentration of a given reagent), "t" is the time in seconds.

From that integral we get the integrated rate law:

$ln\frac{[A]}{[A]_{0} } =-kt$

$[A]=[A]_{0}e^{-kt}$

$ln[A]=ln[A]_{0} -kt$

$k=\frac{ln[A]_{0}-ln[A]}{t}$

therefore k is

$k=\frac{ln1-ln0,485}{600}=1,20x10^{-3}$

Describe how to test your unknown salt mixture for the presence of<br>Na3PO4.12H2O.

klemol [59]

Na3PO4*12H2O + BaCl2*2H2O = Ba3(PO4)2 + NaCl + H2O

add barium chloride to your Na3PO4.12H2O a white precipitate of Ba3(PO4)2 will be formed wrt salt(NaCl) and water(H20) if Na3PO4.12H2O. will be there.
