Answer:

a. very acidic

Explanation:

A solution with a pH of 1.6 would be described as a very acidic solution.

The pH scale is a convenient scale for expressing the level of acidity or alkalinity of aqueous solutions.

The scale ranges from 1 to 14 in which case 1 is the lower limit and 14 the upper limit.

An acidic solution has a pH value less than 7. As pH decreases, the acidity of the solution increases.
Neutral solutions have a pH of 7
An alkaline solution has a pH greater than 7 and the level of alkalinity increases as pH increases.

Particle 1 has a velocity v1 = 2 m/s and a mass m1 = 2 kg . this particle collides with particle 2 of mass m2 = 6 kg , which is

creativ13 [48]

This follows the law of conservation of momentum. Momentum is the product of mass and velocity of object.
Momentum = mass(m) x velocity(v)
law of conservation of momentum means that the total momentum of system before the collision of 2 objects is equal to the total momentum after the collision
Before the collision total momentum
= m1v1 + m2v2
m1 = 2 kg
v1 = 2 m/s
m2 = 6 kg
v2 = 0 m/s
substituting the values in the equation
total momentum before = (2 kg x 2 m/s) + (6 kg x 0 m/s)
total momentum = 4 kgm/s
after the collision the 2 objects stick together and have a common velocity
total momentum after the collision = (6 kg + 2 kg)x V = 8V
V = speed of the conglomerate particle

since total momentum before is equal to total momentum after
8V = 4
V = 2 m/s
speed of conglomerate particle is 2 m/s

How many grams of lithium chloride can be produced from 14.3 g of lithium chlorate when it decomposes into lithium chloride and

vampirchik [111]

6.7 grams of lithium chloride will be produced.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Lithium chlorate is LiClO₃ and lithium chloride is LiCl. The reaction is,

2LiClO₃ = 2LiCl +3O₂.

So here, 2 moles of lithium chlorate produces 2 moles of lithium chloride.

Or, one molecule of lithium chlorate will produce one mole of lithium chloride.

Molecular weight of lithium chlorate = $6.9 + 35.5 + 16\times3$ = 90.4.

So, 14.3 grams of lithium chlorate has 0.16 moles of lithium chlorate.

Thereby, moles of lithium chloride produced is 0.16 moles.

Molecular weight of lithium chloride = $6.9+35.5$ = 42.4 grams.

So weight of lithium chloride produced = $42.4 \times 0.16$ = 6.7 grams.

Thus, weight of lithium chloride produced will be 6.7 grams.

water is conductor or insluator? nails are conductor or insulator? key chains are conductor or insulator?

e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Water is a conductor if it has solutes/ions dissolved in it(tapwater for example)

but pure water is not a good conductor of electricity.

Nails and keychains(made of metal) are conductors of electricity.

What determines an object’s ability to float?

Nezavi [6.7K]

Simply put, density is how tightly “stuff” is packed into a defined space.

For example, a suitcase jam-packed with clothes and souvenirs has a high density, while the same suitcase containing two pairs of underwear has low density. Size-wise, both suitcases look the same, but their density depends on the relationship between their mass and volume.
Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
Volume is the amount of space that an object takes up in three dimensions.

Density is calculated using the following equation: Density = mass/volume or D = m/v.

If something is heavy for its size, it has a high density. If an object is light for its size it has a low density.

The relative densities of an object and the liquid it is placed in determine whether that object will sink or float.
