Outer core made of alloy metal, mostly

1 answer:

8 0

The outer core is about 1,400 miles thick, and it's made mostly of a combination (called an alloy) of iron and nickel, along with small amounts of other dense elements like gold, platinum, and uranium. These metals can, of course, be found on the surface of Earth in solid form.

A food chemist determines the concentration of acetic acid in a sample of apple vinegar by acid base titration. The density of t

Scilla [17]

Answer:

The concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar is 7,324 (%V/V)

Explanation:

The titration equation of acetic acid with NaOH is:

NaOH + CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ + H₂O

The moles required were:

1,024M×0,02500L = 0,02560 moles NaOH. These moles are equivalent (By the titration equation) to moles of CH₃COOH. As molar mass of CH₃COOH is 60,052g/mol, the mass in these moles of CH₃COOH is:

0,02560 moles CH₃COOH× $\frac{60,052g}{1mol}$ = 1,537g of CH₃COOH

As density is 1,01g/mL:

1,537g CH₃COOH× $\frac{1mL}{1,01g}$ = 1,522mL of CH₃COOH

As volume of vinegar in the sample is 20,78mL, the concentration of acetic acid in the vinegar is:

$\frac{1,522mLCH_{3}COOH}{20,78mL}$ ×100= 7,324 (%V/V)

PLEASE HELP! what are the steps that occur during the combustion of hydrogen?

Softa [21]

Answer:

Explanation:

Combustion releases energy in a single step in the form of light and heat. Whereas in respiration, energy is released in steps and is stored in the form of ATP.

) In the Deacon process for the manufacture of chlorine, HCl and O2 react to form Cl2 and H2O. Sufficient air (21 mole% O2, 79%

LiRa [457]

Answer:

Here's what I get.

Explanation:

1. Write the chemical equation

$\rm 4HCl + O$_{2} \longrightarrow \,$ 2Cl$_{2}$ + 2H$_{2}$O$

Assume that we start with 4 L of HCl

2. Calculate the theoretical volume of oxygen

$\text{V}_{\text{O}_{2}}= \text{4 L HCl} \times \dfrac{\text{1 L O}_{2}}{\text{4 L HCl}} = \text{1 L O}_{2}}$

3. Add 35% excess

$\text{V}_{\text{O}_{2}}= \text{1 L O}_{2}} \times 1.35 = \text{1.35 L O}_{2}}$

4. Calculate the theoretical volume of nitrogen

$\text{V}_{\text{N}_{2}} = \text{1.35 L O}_{2}} \times \dfrac{\text{79 L N}_{2}}{\text{21 L O}_{2}}} = \text{5.08 L N}_{2}}$

4. Calculate volumes of reactant used up

Only 85 % of the HCl is converted.

We can summarize the volumes in an ICE table

4HCl + O₂ + N₂ → 2Cl₂ + 2H₂O

I/L: 4 1.35 5.08 0 0

C/L: -0.85(4) -0.85(1) 0 +0.85(2) +0.85(2)

E/L: 0.60 0.50 5.08 1.70 1.70

5. Calculate the mole fractions of each gas in the product stream

Total volume = (0.60 + 0.50 + 5.08 + 1.70 + 1.70) L = 9.58 L

$\chi = \dfrac{\text{V}_{\text{component}}}{\text{V}_\text{total}} = \dfrac{\text{ V}_{\text{component}}}{\text{9.58}} = \text{0.1044V}_{\text{component}}\\\\\chi_{\text{HCl}} = 0.1044\times 0.60 = 0.063\\\\\chi_{\text{O}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 0.50 = 0.052\\\\\chi_{\text{N}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 5.08 = 0.530\\\\\chi_{\text{Cl}_{2}} = 0.1044\times 1.70 = 0.177\\\\\chi_{\text{H$_{2}${O}}} = 0.1044\times 1.70 = 0.177\\\\$

What are the properties of the aluminum in the can

Paul [167]

The properties of aluminium include low density and therefore low weight, high strength, superior malleability, easy machining, excellent corrosion resistance and good thermal and electrical conductivity are amongst aluminium's most important properties. Aluminium is also very easy to recycle.
