Answer:

The student conclude that the sample of benzoic acid is impure.

Explanation:

The observed melting point of benzoic acid when a student melts his/her sample is low than the actual value. The reason for this might be:

(a) <u>The most probable reason is that the sample is impure. Impurities in the sample leads to lowering the value of the melting point.</u> The reason for the phenomenon is that when impurity is present in the compound, the pattern of the crystal lattice disturbs and thus it less amount of heat is require to break the lattice.

(b) There may be some experimental errors like:

  1. Non-uniform heating of the sample
  2. The sample is not tightly filled in the capillary if the student is    following Kjeldahl's flask method.
  3. If the student is using melting point machine, there there might be some instrumental errors.

<u>The student conclude that the sample is impure.</u>

What role does the wire play in voltaic cell?
Triss [41]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

a) It allows electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • <em><u>Voltaic cell is an electrochemical cell in which a spontaneous chemical reaction produces the flow of electrons</u></em>.
  • Electrons are produced by the oxidation reaction occurring at the anode. Electrons flow through the conducting wire from the anode to the cathode. At the cathode these electrons are used to reduce copper(II) ions to copper atoms.
  • <em><u>A conducting wire or a wire play connects the two electrodes allowing electrons to flow from the anode to the cathode</u></em>.

What are particles that differ in number between isotopes
balandron [24]

Answer:

Isotopes are atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons but the same number of protons and electrons. The difference in the number of neutrons between the various isotopes of an element means that the various isotopes have different masses.

Se requieren preparar 1500 ml de una solución al 55% en masa de hidróxido de calcio, sabiendo que la densidad de dicha solución
Masja [62]

Respuesta:

968 g Ca(OH)₂

Explicación:

Paso 1: Calcular la masa de solución

Tenemos 1500 mL de una solución cuya densidad es 1.17 g/mL, es decir, 1 mL de solución tiene una masa de 1.17 g.

1500 mL × 1.17 g/mL = 1.76 × 10³ g

Paso 2: Calcular la masa de hidróxido de calcio en 1.76 × 10³ g de solución

La solución tiene una concentración de 55% en masa de hidróxido de calcio, es decir, cada 100 gramos de solución hay 55 gramos de hidróxido de calcio.

1.76 × 10³ g Solución × 55 g Ca(OH)₂/100 g Solución = 968 g Ca(OH)₂
