the diagram below represents two beakers, each containing an ice cube and clear liquid. in beaker A the ice cube floats, and in

beaker B the ice cube rest on the bottom. what is the most probable cause for the difference in behavior of the ice cube in the two beakers?

Answer:

The density of the liquid in beaker B is less than the that of ice.

Explanation:

Ice will float if its mass is less than the mass of the liquid it displaces.

For example, the density of ice is less than that of water.

A 10 cm³ cube of ice has a mass of about 9 g, while the mass of 10 cm³ of water is 10 g. Thus, 9 g of ice displaces 10 g of water.

The denser water displaces the lighter ice and the ice floats to the top.

If the density of the liquid is <em>less than</em> that of water, say, 8 g/cm³, the ice will displace only 8 g of the liquid. The ice will sink.

It is desired to produce 2.25 grams of dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) by the following reaction. If the percent yield of dichlorometha
Allushta [10]

Answer:- 3.12 g carbon tetrachloride are needed.

Solution:- The balanced equation is:

CH_4+CCl_4\rightarrow 2CH_2Cl_2

From given actual yield and percent yield we will calculate the theoretical yield that would be further used to calculate the grams of carbon tetrachloride.

percent yield formula is:

percent yield = (\frac{actual}{theoretical})100

65.5=(\frac{2.25}{theoretical})100

theoretical=(\frac{2.25(100)}{65.5})

theoretical = 3.44 g

From balanced equation, there is 2:1 mol ratio between dichloethane and carbon tetrachloride.

Molar mass of dichloroethane is 84.93 gram per mol and molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 gram per mol.

3.44gCH_2Cl_2(\frac{1molCH_2Cl_2}{84.93gCH_2Cl_2})(\frac{1molCCl_4}{2molCH_2Cl_2})(\frac{153.82gCCl_4}{1molCCl_4})

= 3.12gCCl_4

So, 3.12 grams of carbon tetrachloride are needed to be reacted.

What are the categories when earth is divided according to its chemical composition? ​
STALIN [3.7K]
The Earth is divided into three chemical layers: the Core [Inner Core (D) and Outer Core (C)], the Mantle (B) and the Crust (A). The Core is predominantly composed of iron and nickel. Even after 4.5 billion years of cooling, the Earth's core remains very hot.

Which phrase change is an endothermic change? (1 point)
Vadim26 [7]
An Endothermic change is a process in which there is absorption of energy.
-Condensation is the transformation from a gas to a liquid. So the water molecules releases energy while condensing, so condensation is exothermic (opposite of endothermic, it's the release of energy)
-Vaporization is the transformation from a liquid to a gas. When you heat water to evaporate it, you're giving energy to the water molecules. And when they absorb this energy, they transform to a gas. Which means that Vaporization is endothermic.
-Deposition is the transformation from gas directly to solid without passing by the liquid phase. Same as the condensation, but the water molecules release even more energy to directly become Solid. So deposition is exothermic.
-Freezing is the transformation from a liquid to a solid. During this phase, water molecules releases energy to its surrounding. So freezing is exothermic.

We can conclude that Vaporization is endothermic, because it's absorbing energy to transform from liquid to gas, while condensation, deposition and freezing are exothermic because they release energy to transform.

Hope this Helps! :)
