<span>During cooling, the kinetic energy of the molecules falls, be</span>cause, when cooling a substace, the particles (molecules) slow down.


The kinetic energy is related to the speed, such that the lower speed the lower kinetic energy.


Particles can translate and vibrate, in the case of gases and liquids, and only vibrate (in the case of solids).


As a substance is cooled the particles get closer and the motion (translation and vibration), slows down. You can see by the equation of the kinetic energy (KE):


KE = [1/2]mass×(speed)² that as the speed is lower the KE will also be lower.


Additionally, when the cooling does not drive a change of phase (gas to liquid, liquid to solid, or solid to gas), it drives a decrease on temperature. In this case you should know that the temperature is a measure of the kinetic energy: the lower the temperature, the lower the kinetic energy.

Kinetic energy is the energy if an energy in motion. Molecules in a substance has varying kinetic energies because they move at different speeds. During cooling heat is released to the environment.  Thus, when heat is being released, the kinetic energy of the molecules decreases.

Calculate the volume in mL of 0.279 M Ca(OH)2 needed to neutralize 24.5 mL of 0.390 M H3PO4 in a titration.
Vsevolod [243]

The volume of the 0.279 M Ca(OH)₂ solution required to neutralize 24.5 mL of 0.390 M H₃PO₄ is 51.4 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

2H₃PO₄ + 3Ca(OH)₂ —> Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

  • The mole ratio of the acid, H₃PO₄ (nA) = 2
  • The mole ratio of the base, Ca(OH)₂ (nB) = 3

<h3>How to determine the volume of Ca(OH)₂ </h3>
  • Molarity of acid, H₃PO₄ (Ma) = 0.390 M
  • Volume of acid, H₃PO₄ (Va) = 24.5 mL
  • Molarity of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Mb) = 0.279 M
  • Volume of base, Ca(OH)₂ (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.39 × 24.5) / (0.279 × Vb) = 2/3

9.555 / (0.279 × Vb) = 2/3

Cross multiply

2 × 0.279 × Vb = 9.555 × 3

0.558 × Vb = 28.665

Divide both side by 0.558

Vb = 28.665 / 0.558

Vb = 51.4 mL

Thus, the volume of the Ca(OH)₂ solution needed is 51.4 mL

A student wanted to investigate the effect of light on the growth of
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

D.phototropism

Explanation:

Phototropism is a type of tropism in which a plant or plant part responds to light. According to this question, a student wanted to investigate the effect of light on the growth of cress seedlings. The student used three different pots for the experiment.

Pot 1 was placed with light from above. Pot 2 was placed in a cupboard with no light. Pot 3 was placed in a window with light from one direction only. However, the image attached to this question shows that the plants in the different pots face different directions in response to light, which depicts phototropism

A tank in the shape of a rectangular prism measures 10 dm by 4 dm by 6 dm. the tank is completely filled with 8908.8 l of liquid
nevsk [136]
1) The question contains an unknown unit


The number 8908.8 has to be in units of mass: for example, kg or grams.


Here you indicated L.


I am going to work assuming that L is a mass unit. So you can see the way to solve the problem, but you have to verifiy the real unit of the statement and substitute with it.



With that in mind you can find the density of the liquid from:


density  = mass / volume


2) Calculate the volume.


The volume of the liquid is the volume of the vessel, because it is filled.


The volume of the vessel is calculated from the formula of volume for a rectantular prism.


Volume of a rectangular prism = area of the base * height = side * side * height


=> Volume = 10 dm * 4 dm * 6 dm = 240 dm^3 = 240 liter


3) Calculate the density:


density = mass /volume = 8,908.8 L / 240 liter   =  37.12 L / dm^3



Answer: 37.12 L / dm^3

What is [h3o ] in a solution of 0.075 m hno2 and 0.030 m nano2?
Tanya [424]
Answer is: concentration of hydrogenium ions is 9,54·10⁻⁵ M.
c(HNO₂) = 0,075 M.
c(NaNO₂) = 0,035 M.
Ka(HNO₂) = 4,5·10⁻⁵.
This is buffer solution, so use <span>Henderson–Hasselbalch equation:
pH = pKa + log(c(</span>NaNO₂) ÷ c(HNO₂)).
pH = -log(4,5·10⁻⁵) + log(0,035 M ÷ 0,075 M).
pH = 4,35 - 0,33.
pH = 4,02.
<span>[H</span>₃O⁺] = 10∧(-4,02).
<span>[H</span>₃O⁺] = 0,0000954 M = 9,54·10⁻⁵ M.
