Why can some electric appliances be immersed in water without damage

1 answer:

3 0

Some electric appliances can be immersed in water without damage because they are well insulated. The electrical systems are well insulated and tightly sealed so that when they are immersed in water, no water can get into the electrical parts.

In terms of their electron configurations, why is cesium more likely to lose its valence electron than potassium?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

Explanation:

use the term electron sheilding, the more electrons between the valence el3ctron and nucleus the easier to lose the valence electron (more sheilding = easier to lose)

A total solar eclipse occurs because the moon can totally block the sun. If the moon was smaller or farther from earth, a total

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

both

Explanation:

id say that it could occur but also not as much. the moon would be smaller and further from the earth to where we would barely be able to see it. if the full moon is barely visible then im sure the total solar eclipse wouldn't be as noticeable as it is now. but thats just my opinion

Which formula can be used to calculate the theoretical yield?

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Option C, (Actual yield ÷ percent yield) × 100

Explanation:

Theoretical yield is defined as the total amount of product formed for given reactants in a chemical reaction. It is an ideal case which assumes no exceptions or wastage.

The mathematical relation between the actual yield, percent yield and theoretical yield is as follows -

$P.Y. = \frac{M_{A.Y.}}{M_{T.Y.}} * 100$

Where

P.Y. represents the percent yield a

M A.Y. represents the mass obtained from actual yield

M T.Y. represents the mass obtained from theoretical yield

Hence, if we rearrange the formula, we get -

$M_{T.Y.} = \frac{M_{A.Y.}}{P.Y.} * 100$

Hence, option C is correct

The atomic nucleus can experience decay into 2 particles or more due to the instability of its atomic nucleus.

Usually radioactive elements have an unstable atomic nucleus.

General formulas used in decay:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{t/t\frac{1}{2} }}}$

T = duration of decay

t 1/2 = half-life

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time

Nt=25 g

No=100 g

t1/2=5770 years

$\tt 25=100\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}^{T/5770}\\\\2=T/5770\rightarrowT=11540~years$

125.0 g of an unknown substance is heated to 97.0°C. It is then placed in a calorimeter than contains 250g of water with an init

Sveta_85 [38]

The heat released by the substance in the calorimeter is equal to the heat absorbed by water which results to the decrease and increase in temperature, respectively.
We use m Cp ΔT to balance the heat involved

(m Cp ΔT) subs in calorimeter = <span>(m Cp ΔT) water
</span>125 g * Cp * (97.0-23.5 ) C = 250 g *(4.18 J/C g)* (23.5-20)
Cp = 0.398 J/Cg
