Answer:

$\huge \boxed{\mathrm{Carbon \ disulphide}}$

Explanation:

Carbon disulphide is the liquid that can be used to separate iron fillings and sulphur powder.

When carbon disulphide is poured into the dish, the sulphur powder gets easily dissolved in the carbon disulfide. The iron fillings are left to settle on the bottom of the dish.

The iron fillings can get seperated through filtration. When the mixture of sulphur powder and carbon disulphide gets completely evaporated, the sulphur powder is left over.

If 5.100 g of c6h6 is burned and the heat produced from the burning is added to 5691 g of water at 21 °c, what is the final temp

emmasim [6.3K]

C6H12 = 6x12 + 6x1 = 78.
The equation indicates that 2x78 = 156g benzene will produce 6542kJ.
Using proportions you can then calculate that
x/6542kJ = 7.9g / 156g
x = 331.3kJ = 331300J.

heat = mass x ΔT x 4.18J/g°
ΔT = 331300J / (5691g x 4.18J/g°) = 13.9°

final temp = 21 + 14° = 35°C

Which types of electron orbitals will have higher energy than a 4d orbital?

alexdok [17]

Answer:

D) 4f

Explanation:

To determine which electron orbital that will have higher energy than a 4d orbital, we write the electron configuration starting with s-orbital.

2s 2p

3s 3p 3d 3f

4s 4p 4d 4f

5s 5p 5d 5f

6s 6p 6d 6f

7s 7p 7d 7f

In ascending order, 1s, 2s, 2p, 3s, 3p, 4s, 3d, 4p, 5s, 3f, 4d, 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, 6d, 7p, 6f, 7d, 7f.

From the electronic configuration formula above, the electron orbitals that have higher energy than a 4d orbital are 5p, 6s, 4f, 5d, 6p, 7s, 5f, 6d, 7p, 6f, 7d, 7f.

Therefore, 4f is the correct answer.

Which of the following is an example of oxidation? A. Charcoal is placed on a grill and lighting fluid poured over it. B. A car

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

The Answer is (B) A car get rusty over the course of few yearsExplanation:

Explanation:

Oxidation refers to the process of loss of electrons by a molecule,atom or ion during a chemical reaction.The process which is just the opposite of oxidation is reduction,it occurs when their is gain of electrons .
When iron reacts with the oxygen it forms a chemical know as Rust.In this case iron has lost some electrons and the oxygen has gained some electrons

Identify the species oxidized, the species reduced, the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following electron transfe

babunello [35]

Answer:

Oxidized and reducing agent: manganese.

Reduced and oxidizing agent: mercury.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the reaction:

$Hg^{2+}(aq) + Mn^0(s)\rightarrow Hg(s) + Mn^{2+}(aq)$

We keep in mind that the species that increase the oxidation state is the oxidized one whereas the one that decrease the oxidation state is the reduced one; therefore manganese is the oxidized one as well as the reducing agent because it goes from 0 to +2 and mercury the reduced one as well as the oxidizing agent because it goes from 2+ to 0.
