Why is using only clean glassware important?

Good laboratory technique demands clean glassware because the most carefully executed piece of work may give an erroneous result if dirty glassware is used. In all instances, glassware must be physically and chemically clean and in many cases, it must be bacteriologic-ally clean or sterile.

Keeping glassware physically neat and clean, free of grease, and bacteria is therefore of the utmost importance

Which conversion factor is needed to solve the following problem?

USPshnik [31]

Molar Volume is required to solve this problem. As we know that "1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupies 22.4 L of volume". SO using this concept, we can calculate the volume of ammonia formed by reacting 54.1 L of Hydrogen gas as follow,

Equal amounts of N2 and O2 are added, under certain conditions, to a closed container. Which changes occur in the reverse reacti

geniusboy [140]

1) The forward reaction is N2 (g) + O2 (g) → 2NO

(that reaction requires special contitions because at normal pressures and temperatures N2 and O2 do not react to form another compound.

2) The equiblibrium equation is

N2 (g) + O2 (g) ⇄ 2NO

3) Then, the reverse reaction is

2NO → N2(g) + O2(g)

Answer: 2NO → N2(g) + O2(g)

What is the boiling point of water when 175.0 g of Na2SO4, a strong electrolyte is dissolved in 1.000 Kg of water?

liubo4ka [24]

Answer: $101.9^0C$

Explanation:

Elevation in boiling point is given by:

$\Delta T_b=i\times K_b\times m$

$\Delta T_b=T_b-T_b^0=(T_b-100)^0C$ = Elevation in boiling point

i= vant hoff factor = 3 (number of ions an electrolyte produce on complete dissociation)

$Na_2SO_4\rightarrow 2Na^++SO_4^{2-}$

$K_f$ = freezing point constant = $0.512^0C/m$

m= molality

$\Delta T_b=i\times K_b\times \frac{\text{mass of solute}}{\text{molar mass of solute}\times \text{weight of solvent in kg}}$

Weight of solvent (water)= 1.000 kg

Molar mass of solute $Na_2SO_4$ = 142 g/mol

Mass of solute $Na_2SO_4$ = 175.0 g

$(T_b-100)^0C=3\times 0.512\times \frac{175.0g}{142g/mol\times 1.000kg}$

$T_b=101.9^0C$

Thus the boiling point of water when 175.0 g of $Na_2SO_4$ , a strong electrolyte is dissolved in 1.000 Kg of water is $101.9^0C$

Why do you think the different heating process result in different softness or hardness of the steel? Think about what steel is

ale4655 [162]

Explanation:

Different heating process affect the microstructure of the steel in different ways. Thus, imparting different properties to the steel. For example, annealing is done is done to impart softness to steel, hardening is done to hardened the steel( eg: carburizing, nitriding, cyaniding) whereas tempering is done to improve the ductility of the steel.

Steel mainly contains iron and carbon. This percentage of carbon and iron decides the property of the steel. It is the % of carbon which is altered in different heating process that to obtained the desire microstructure in steel.
