Which of the following is the best example of chemical weathering?

Chemistry

Answer: A. Limestone rocks dissolving in water

Explanation:

B: This is a physical change; it changes an object physically rather than chemically. It does not change the composition of the concrete, only the shape.

C: This is also a physical change because the water is just dragging sand with it, but not actually changing the composition of it.

D: Similar to option B, this is an example of physical weathering because the ice only divides the rock into different parts but doesn't change the composition or complexity of it.

An unsaturated solution is formed when 80 grams of a salt is dissolved in 100 grams of water at 40. This salt could be ?
LekaFEV [45]
A simple way to go about this is that we look at the solubility curve, on the x axis we first look at the temperature and then the corresponding value of solute/100g H2O on the y axis, from the 4 curves above only NaNO3 has a curve that can accommodate  80g of salt at 40 without being Saturated since at 40 degrees it can accommodate 105g of salt to become completely Saturated.

list 10 chemical reactions that have benefited your life today. Include the reasons you think each was indeed a chemical reactio
Dennis_Churaev [7]

1) The overall balanced photosynthesis reaction:  

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂.

Plants convert solar energy into the chemical energy of sugars (food).

2) Chemical reaction of cellular respiration:  

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O.

Organic carbon (glucose) is transformed into inorganic carbon (carbon dioxide) that goes into atmosphere.

3) Gasoline combustion:

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O.

Gasoline is a mixture of many different hydrocarbons: alkanes (paraffins), cycloalkanes and alkenes (olefins).

Gasoline is being burn.

4) Balanced chemical reaction of forming rust: 4Fe + 3O₂ → 2Fe₂O₃.

Forming rust usually last for few months and iron changing in another substance with different properties.

5) An electrochemical cell (voltaic or galvanic cell) is generating electrical energy from chemical reactions.  

In galvanic cell, specie (for example zinc and zinc cations) from one half-cell, lose electrons (oxidation) and species from the other half-cell (for example copper and copper cations) gain electrons (reduction).  

Oxidation on the zinc anode: Zn(s) → Zn²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻.

Reduction on the copper cathode: Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ → Cu(s).

Copper is forming from the solution, that is chemical change.

6) Balanced chemical reaction: CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂.

Making limewater  (diluted solution of calcium hydroxide).

7) Neutralization is reaction in which an acid and a base react quantitatively with each other. In this reaction, there are no acids and bases, only salts.

Balanced chemical reaction of vinegar and antacid:

2CH₃COOH(aq) + Mg(OH)₂(aq) → (CH₃COO)₂Mg(s) + 2H₂O(l).

Precipation is formed.

8) Balanced chemical reaction of magnesium and hydrochloric acid:

MgO + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + H₂O(g).

Acid dissolves metal oxides.

9) Chemical reaction of silver in air:

4Ag + 2H₂S + O₂ → 2Ag₂S (tarnish) + 2H₂O.

Silver change color in the air.

10) Forming of patina: 2CuO + CO₂ + H₂O → Cu₂CO₃(OH)₂.

Brass (copper) change color to green.

How many moles is 2.55 x 10 to the power of 26 atoms of Neon?​
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

424 mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Number of atoms of Neon: 2.55 × 10²⁶ atoms

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles corresponding to 2.55 × 10²⁶ atoms of Neon

In order to convert atoms into moles, we need a conversion factor, which is Avogadro's number: there are 6.02 × 10²³ atoms of Neon in 1 mole of atoms of Neon.

2.55 × 10²⁶ atoms × (1 mol/6.02 × 10²³ atoms) = 424 mol

Balloon has a volume of 600-ml at temperature of 360 K. If the temperature of
Molodets [167]

Answer:

V₂ ≈416.7 mL

Explanation:

This question asks us to find the volume, given another volume and 2 temperatures in Kelvin. Based on this information, we must be using Charles's Law and the formula. Remember, his law states the volume of a gas is proportional to the temperature.

  • V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂

where V₁ and V₂ are the first and second volumes, and T₁ and T₂ are the first and second temperature.

The balloon has a volume of 600 milliliters and a temperature of 360 K, but the temperature then drops to 250 K. So,

  • V₁= 600 mL
  • T₁= 360 K
  • T₂= 250 K

Substitute the values into the formula.

  • 600 mL /360 K = V₂ / 250 K

Since we are solving for the second volume when the temperature is 250 K, we have to isolate the variable V₂. It is being divided by 250 K. The inverse o division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 250 K.

  • 250 K * 600 mL /360 K = V₂ / 250 K * 250 K
  • 250 K * 600 mL/360 K = V₂

The units of Kelvin cancel, so we are left with the units of mL.

  • 250 * 600 mL/360=V₂
  • 416.666666667 mL= V₂

Let's round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place tells us to round to 6 to a 7.

  • 416.7 mL ≈V₂

The volume of the balloon at 250 K is approximately 416.7 milliliters.
