Answer:

Weathering

Explanation:

when carbon iv oxide from air mixes with water or moisture it forms carbonic acid . The equation is shown below.

H2O + CO2 ⇒ H2CO3

This weak acid react with rock material and changes its chemical structure by dissolving it

You are trying to determine the specific heat of a metal. You heat the 97 g piece of metal to 100 °C and place it in a calorimet
Brut [27]

Answer : The specific heat of the metal is, 0.658J/g^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of metal = ?

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of metal = 97 g

m_2 = mass of water  = 122 g

T_f = final temperature of mixture = 28.9^oC

T_1 = initial temperature of metal = 100^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 20.0^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

97g\times c_1\times (28.9-100)^oC=-122g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (28.9-20.0)^oC

c_1=0.658J/g^oC

Therefore, the specific heat of the metal is, 0.658J/g^oC

Chlorine-35 has 17 protons. how many protons and neutrons does the isotope chlorine-36 have?
alexandr402 [8]
To find the number of neutrons in an atom you can use and equation

N = Mass no. - Protons 

N of chlorine-36 = 36 - 17 = 19 

so chlorine-36 has 19 neutrons 

hope that helps

State the Periodic Law. Why is it so important in the study of chemistry?
gayaneshka [121]

Answer:

Summary. To summarize, the periodic table is important because it is organized to provide a great deal of information about elements and how they relate to one another in one easy-to-use reference. The table can be used to predict the properties of elements, even those that have not yet been discovered.

Which of the following numerical expressions gives the number of particles in 2.0 g of Ne?
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

Number of particles = 2.0 g*(6.0 x 10^23 particles/mol) / 20.18 g/mol

Option C is correct

Explanation:

Step 1: Data give

Mass of Ne = 2.0 grams

Molar mass of neon = 20.18 g/mol

Number of Avogadro = 6.0 *10^23 /mol

Step 2: Calculate number of moles of neon

Moles Ne = Mass of ne / Molar mass of ne

Moles Ne = 2.0 / 20.18 g/mol

Moles Ne = 0.099 moles

Step 3: Calculate nulber of particles

Number of particles = 6.022*10^23 / mol * 0.099 moles = 5.96 *10^22

Number of particles = 6.022*10^23 * (2.0g/ 20.18g/mol)

Number of particles = 2.0 g*(6.0 x 10^23 particles/mol) / 20.18 g/mol

Option C is correct
