An electromagnet is a magnet that is created using an electric current -- created by electricity. Since electricity can be turned on and off, so can an electromagnet. It can even be weakened or strengthened by decreasing or increasing the current. Also when charges, like electrons or protons, are stationary, they produce electric forces. But when they're moving, they produce magnetic forces.

Well I'm sure many a time you've seen on some science experiment someone wrap a copper wire around a nail well thats generally the idea for electromagnets you get a solid piece of iron which is the only metal that is magnetic and you wrap a copper wire around it and the idea is to make two opposing magnetic poles by aligning the molecules with a electrical charge (a battery) so now with all three pieces assembles you have a copper wire attached to two sides of a battery and wrapped around a nail

Is this example of a direct proportion or an inverse proportion?

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

Inverse proportion occurs when one value increases and the other decreases. For example, more workers on a job would reduce the time to complete the task. They are inversely proportional.

What are alkali metals

jeyben [28]

Answer:

Alkali metals are highly reactive elements that appear to be silver and they are found in group 1 of the periodic table. It consists of lithium (Li), sodium (Na), potassium (K), rubidium (Rb), cesium (Cs), and francium (Fr). As you go further down the group, the more reactive they are. Those elements all react to water and air, so they must be kept in oil to preserve their state.

1. A chemist prepares hydrogen fluoride by means of the following reaction:

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

a) Theoretical Yield of HF = 5.64 grams

b) Percentage Yield = 39%

Explanation:

Reaction Given:

CaF2 + H2SO4 -> CaSO4 + 2HF

CaF2 = 11g

H2SO4 = Used in excess

HF = 2.2 g production = Actual Yield

So, Let's write down the molar masses:

Molar Mass of CaF2 = 78 g /mol

Molar Mass of HF = 20 g/mol

From the reaction, we can see the 1 mole of CaF2 gives the 2 moles of HF

i.e

a) Theoretical Yield of HF:

1 mole CaF2 = 2 moles HF

78 g CaF2 = 2 x 20 g of HF

78 g CaF2 = 40 g of HF

1 g CaF2 = 40g/78g of HF

And in the question it is given that chemist used 11 g of CaF2 so,

1 x 11 g of CaF2 = 11 x 40/78 g of HF

11 g of CaF2 = 440/78 g of HF

11 g of CaF2 = 5.64 g of HF

And this is the theoretical yield

Theoretical Yield of HF = 5.64 grams

b) Now, calculate the Percentage Yield of HF

Percentage Yield = Actual Yield /Theoretical Yield x 100

Percentage Yield = 2.2 g /5.64 g x 100

Percentage Yield = 39%
