How did Democritus help our understanding of the atom?

Akosua has observed that anytime she drinks sobolo, her stool appears dark green. On one occasion

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

i. Sobolo is a Ghanian drink that is produced from red hibiscus flower that has an average pH of 6.7

It contains cyanidin and anthocyanins, which is a red pigment that is red in an acidic medium and changes green when introduced in a basic medium that has a high pH

The pH at the rectum of the digestive system = 5 to 8 (Slightly basic)

Therefore, what made the stool of Akosua green is that the sobolo drink changes to green in basic solution

ii. The stool which appeared green because she took sobolo turn into bright red upon mixing with the acidic WC water because of the presence of anthocyanins in sobolo, it turns red in an acidic medium

iii. Sobolo which turns green, or blue in a basic medium and red in an acidic medium can be used as a litmus solution to test the pH of a given substance

Explanation:

Sobolo or soobolo in Ghana is a name for the Hibiscus tea or tisane, which is made from calyces of the hibiscus plant, and has a sour (tangy) taste and appears bright red in color

Which response includes all of the following processes that are accompanied by an increase in entropy?

dlinn [17]

Answer:

1 and 3.

Explanation:

The entropy measures the randomness of the system, as higher is it, as higher is the entropy. The randomness is associated with the movement and the arrangement of the molecules. Thus, if the molecules are moving faster and are more disorganized, the randomness is greater.

So, the entropy (S) of the phases increases by:

S solid < S liquid < S gases.

1. The substance is going from solid to gas, thus the entropy is increasing.

2. The substance is going from a disorganized way (the molecules of I are disorganized) to an organized way (the molecules join together to form I2), thus the entropy is decreasing.

3. The molecules go from an organized way (the atom are joined together) to a disorganized way, thus the entropy increases.

4. The ions are disorganized and react to form a more organized molecule, thus the entropy decreases.

Answer:

Alright the very first thing you need to do is balance the equation:

2HCl + Na2CO3 -----> 2NaCl + CO2 + H2O

Now we need to find the limiting reactant by converting the volume to moles of both HCl and Na2CO3.

Volume x Concentration/molarity = moles

0.235L x 0.6 M = 0.141 moles / molar ratio of 2 = 0.0705 moles of HCl

0.094L x 0.75 M = 0.0705 moles /molar ratio of 1 = 0.0705 moles of Na2CO3

Since both of the moles are equal, it means the entire reaction is complete (while the identification of limiting reactant may seem like an unnecessary step, it's quite essential in stoichiometry, so keep an eye out) and there is no excess of any reactant.

Now we know that the product we want to calculate is aqueous so, following the law of conservation of mass, we should add both volumes together to calculate how much volume we could get for NaCl.

0.235 + 0.094 = 0.329L of NaCl

Now we apply the C1V1 = C2V2 equation using the concentration and volume of Na2CO3 because it's molar ratio is one to one to NaCl (You can also use HCL, but you have to divide their moles by 2 for the molar ratio) and the volume we just calculated for NaCl.

(0.75M) x (0.094L) = C2 x (0.329L)

Rearrange equation to solve for C2:

(0.75M) x (0.094L) = C2

(0.329L)

C2 = 0.214 M (Rounded)

When the reaction is finished, the NaCl solution will have a molarity concentration of 0.214 M.

1. Mg2+ and Ca2+ are in the same group on the periodic table. In terms of electronic

finlep [7]

Answer:

Se detailed explanation.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both magnesium and calcium ions are in group IIA, we can review the following similar properties:

- Since both calcium and magnesium are in group IIA they have two valence electrons, it means that the both of them have two electrons at their outer shells.

- They are highly soluble in water when forming ionic bonds with nonmetals such as those belonging to halogens and oxygen's family.

- Calcium has 18 electrons and magnesium 10 which are two less than the total protons (20 and 12 respectively) since the both of them have lost two electrons due their ionized form.

- Their electron configurations are:

$Ca^{20}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^3,3p^6,4s^2\\\\Mg^{12}=1s^2,2s^2,2p^6,3s^2$

It means that the both of them are at the $s$ region since it is the last subshell at which their electrons are.

Best regards.
