Answer: An igneous rock that cools rapidly is made of really small mineral crystals.

Explanation:

The layers inside the earth are hot enough to melt a rock. The liquid or molten rock is known as magma.

When a molten rock cools and solidifies, it results in the formation of an igneous rock.

The slow cooling of magma will result in the formation of an igneous rock with large crystals. Whereas, rapid cooling of lava will result in the formation of an igneous rock with small crystals.

Thus, it can be concluded that an igneous rock that cools rapidly is made of really small mineral crystals.

Which gas law states that the pressure of a gas decreases when volume is increased and the temperature is unchanged

Nesterboy [21]

Answer: Boyle's law

Explanation: It states that pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume of a gas at constant temperature.

$P$ ∝ $\frac{1}{V}$ at constant temperature

or If the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases if the temperature is unchanged and If the pressure of gas is increased, the volume decreases if the temperature is unchanged.

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

1826.5g of methanol (CH3OH), molar mass = 32.0 g/mol is added to 735 g of water, what is the molality of the methane 0.0348 m 1.

Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Molality = 1.13 m

Explanation:

Molality is defined as the moles of the solute present in 1 kilogram of the solvent.

Given that:

Mass of $CH_3OH$ = 26.5 g

Molar mass of $CH_3OH$ = 32.04 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{26.5\ g}{32.04\ g/mol}$

$Moles\ of\ CH_3OH= 0.8271\ moles$

Mass of water = 735 g = 0.735 kg ( 1 g = 0.001 kg )

So, molality is:

$m=\frac {0.8271\ moles}{0.735\ kg}$

<u>Molality = 1.13 m</u>

The rate constant k for a certain reaction is measured at two different temperatures temperature 376.0 °c 4.8 x 108 280.0 °C 2.3

9966 [12]

Answer:

The activation energy for this reaction = 23 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Using the expression,

$\ln \dfrac{k_{1}}{k_{2}} =-\dfrac{E_{a}}{R} \left (\dfrac{1}{T_1}-\dfrac{1}{T_2} \right )$

Where,

$k_1\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_1$

$k_2\ is\ the\ rate\ constant\ at\ T_2$

$E_a$ is the activation energy

R is Gas constant having value = 8.314×10⁻³ kJ / K mol

$k_2=2.3\times 10^8$

$T_2=280\ ^0C$

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (280 + 273.15) K = 553.15 K

$T_2=553.15\ K$

$k_1=4.8\times 10^8$

$T_1=376\ ^0C$

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15

So,

T = (376 + 273.15) K = 649.15 K

$T_1=649.15\ K$

So,

$\left(\ln \left(\:\frac{4.8\times \:\:\:10^8}{2.3\times \:\:\:10^8}\right)\right)\:=-\frac{E_a}{8.314\times \:10^{-3}\ kJ/mol.K}\times \:\left(\frac{1}{649.15\ K}-\frac{1}{553.15\ K}\right)$

$E_a=-\frac{10^{-3}\times \:8.314\ln \left(\frac{10^8\times \:4.8}{10^8\times \:2.3}\right)}{-\frac{96}{359077.3225}}\ kJ/mol$

$E_a=-\frac{\frac{8.314\ln \left(\frac{4.8}{2.3}\right)}{1000}}{-\frac{96}{359077.3225}}\ kJ/mol$

$E_a=22.87\ kJ/mol$

<u>The activation energy for this reaction = 23 kJ/mol.</u>

Which list consists of elements that have the most similar chemical properties?

Scilla [17]

(2) Mg, Ca, and Ba have the most similar chemical properties, and we know this because of their coexistence in the group alkali earth metals (group 2) on the periodic table.
