How can chemical symbols prove that cubic zirconia is not a diamond?

Answer:

Diamond is pure carbon, C

Zircona is zirconium oxide, ZrO_{2}

Explanation:

Chemical symbols are used to distinguish one atom (or molecule) from the other.

Diamond is composed of pure carbon (C) where each C atom is bonded to four other C atoms forming a repeating network of tetrahedrally linked C atoms. Therefore, the chemical symbol of diamond is C.

If the chemical symbol of zircona were also 'C' then it would prove that both are identical. However, zircona is essentially zirconium oxide which has a chemical formula, ZrO_{2}. Therefore, the different symbols suggest that the two are not identical.

One compound can be differentiate from other by its composition although both look same. The diamond has the chemical formula of carbon (c) as it is a repeating unit of carbon which has shining features. On the other hand zirconia is zirconium dioxide (ZrO_{2}. When it is crystallized it becomes shiny as like diamond. However the look of the two are meanwhile similar the composition is totally different as well the molar mass.

Wear _______________________ when handling batteries, because they can explode or leak.
Basile [38]

The answer is: b. Safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Battery acid (sulfuric acid) has pH = 0.

Sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a strong acid, it means that the solution of sufuric acid is more acidic (pH<7) than water (pH = 7).

Chemical dissociation of sulfuric acid in water:  

H₂SO₄(aq) → 2H⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq).  

Sulfuric acid can come in contact with eyes and hands, so it is important to wear safety glasses and acid-resistant gloves.

Titanium and chlorine react to form titanium(IV) chloride, like this:
leva [86]

Answer:

the value of equilibrium constant for the reaction is 8.5 * 10⁷

Explanation:

Ti(s) + 2 Cl₂(g) ⇄ TiCl₄(l)

equilibrium constant Kc = \frac{1}{[Cl_2]^2}

Given that,

We are given:

Equilibrium amount of titanium = 2.93 g

Equilibrium amount of titanium tetrachloride = 2.02 g

Equilibrium amount of chlorine gas = 1.67 g

We calculate the No of mole = mass / molar mass

mass of chlorine gas = 1.67 g

Molar mass of chlorine gas = 71 g/mol

mole of chlorine = 1.67 / 71

= 7.0L

Concentration of chlorine is = no of mole / volume

= 0.024 / 7

= 3.43 * 10⁻³M

equilibrium constant Kc  = \frac{1}{[Cl_2]^2}

= \frac{1}{[3.43 * 10^-^3]^2}

= 8.5 * 10⁷

If you have 5.42 x 1024 aluminum atoms, approximately how many moles is that
sattari [20]

Answer:

<h2>9.00 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L} \\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{5.42 \times  {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} }  \\  = 9.0033

We have the final answer as

<h3>9.00 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
