Describe how the properties of the compound carbon monoxide (CO) differ from the properties of the

Chemistry

ElenaW [278]3 years ago
7 0

Explanation:

There is a clear cut difference between a compound and an element:

  • A compound is made up of substances composed of two or more kinds of atoms or elements joined together in a definite grouping.
  • An element is a distinct substance that cannot be split-up into simpler substances. These substances are only made up of one kind of atom.

Compounds are formed so that unstable elements can attain stability.

Carbon monoxide is made up two elements: Carbon and oxygen that have combined chemically together.

  • Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas and it is different from oxygen atom and carbon atom.
  • Carbon is a solid but carbon monoxide is a gas.
  • Oxygen atom does not exists on its own but it exists as Oxygen gas O₂
  • The properties of carbon monoxide clearly differ from that of oxygen and carbon.

Convert the pressure 525.4 torr to kPa.
Virty [35]

Answer:

A. 70.0 kpa

Explanation:

Given

Pressure = 525.4 torr

Required

Convert to kPa

From standard unit of conversion;

1\ torr = 0.133\ kPa

Multiply both sides by 525.4

525.4 * 1\ torr = 525.4 * 0.133\ kpa

525.4\ torr = 70.047572\ kpa

525.4\ torr = 70.0\ kpa <em>(Approximated)</em>

<em>From the list of given options, option A is the closest answer after 525.4 torr is converted to its kpa equivalent</em>

The fuel used in many disposable lighters is liquid butane, C4H10. Butane has a molecular weight of 58.1 grams in one mole. How
viktelen [127]
The exact molecular mass for butane (C4H10) is 
12.0096*4+1.0079*10=58.1174  which is 58.1 to 3 significant figures.

Proportion of carbon in the compound
12.0096*4: 58.1174
=>
48.0384 : 58.1174

The mass of carbon in 2.50 grams of butane can be obtained by proportion, namely
Mass of carbon
= 2.50 * (48.0384/58.1174)
= 2.0664
= 2.07 g (approximated to 3 significant figures)

What causes some materials to have magnetic fields?
enyata [817]
<span>Magnetic fields in certain materials (most commonly metals) are created due to moving electrons within these materials, which create an electric current.The distribution of electrons in these metals is uneven, resulting in an irregular rotation and lots of movement that then creates two magnetic poles (a north and south pole). When these poles align and face the same direction, they create a magnetic field.</span>
