Corrosion. Metals tend to form oxide and over time, they rust. ( 2 FeO(OH) ⇌ Fe2O3 + H2O). <span>Gold and platinum on the other hand are noble metals and remain stable in their pure form. Thus, no electron loss and no oxidation.</span>

miskamm [114]

Answer:

Explanation:

In this problem,

we will determine the enthalpy at the end of heat input and we get the condition is the super heated state.

so the entropy change will be due to latent heat at 150 kPa and also due to temperature change at the super heated state.

All the temperature, enthalpy is evaluated with the help of the steam table.

mass is calculated with the help of a specific volume at initial condition.

What is the maximum number of hydrogen bonds that can be formed in a sample containing 1.0 mol (NÅ molecules) liquid HF? Compare
MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

In one mole of liquid HF , no of molecules is 6.02 x 10²³.

Each molecule forms two hydrogen bonds on an average so no of hydrogen bonds per mol ih HF is

2 x  6.02 x 10²³.

= 12.04 x 10²³ .

In water no of hydrogen bonds per molecule of water is 4 . So in one mole of water no of hydrogen bonds is

4 x 6.02 x 10²³.

= 24.08 x 10²³ .

Describe how chemical weathering and the formation of biochemical sediment remove carbon from the atmosphere and store it in the
hram777 [196]
Biochemical sediment like black shale (carbonaceous shale) and lignite and coal will form from the weathering ie reduction and decomposition of plant organic matter and thus store it in the geosphere, Also, carbon is naturally sequestered in the formation of carbonate rocks like limestone by combination of the carbon dioxide in the oceans (which may be in the form of carbonic acid) with metals to form calcium and magnesium carbonate compounds.
