How does the sun's position in the sky affect rainbows?

1 answer:

3 0

When the sun is low in the sky, light rays pass horizontally through more of the lower atmosphere to reach the earth's surface or an observer's eye. ... Because short-wavelength blue and green light are scattered more than red and yellow light, rainbows at times of sunrise and sunset often display the brightest reds.

Metal atoms bond together to form what kind of bond?

Helen [10]

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between atoms. Hope this helps!!!

Fossil fuels are considered to be __________ resources because they are consumed ___________ than they form.

mixas84 [53]

Fossil fuels are formed by the deposition of organic matter. It is a nonrenewable resource as they deplete faster as they are produced. Thus, option B is correct.

<h3>What is non-renewable resources?</h3><h3 />

A non-renewable resource is exhaustible and takes a longer time to get produced as they include the accumulation of organic matter over thousands of years.

Fossil fuels take a very long time to get replenished and have a slower rate of formation as compared to consumption. It includes petrol, coal, diesel, natural gases, etc.

Therefore, option B. nonrenewable and far faster are the correct blanks.

A 1.757-g sample of a / alloy was dissolved in acid and diluted to exactly 250.0 mL in a volumetric flask. A 50.00-mL aliquot of

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

78.14% Pb²⁺ and 21.86% of Cd²⁺

Explanation:

The first titration involves the reaction of both Pb²⁺ and Cd²⁺

In the second titration, as the buffer is HCN/NaCN, the Cd²⁺ precipitates as Cd(CN)₂ and the only ion that reacts is Pb²⁺

In the first titration:

Moles EDTA = Moles Pb²⁺ and Cd²⁺:

28.89mL = 0.02889L * (0.06950moles / L) = 2.008x10⁻³ moles in the aliquot. In the sample:

2.008x10⁻³ moles * (250.0mL / 50.0mL) =

0.01004 moles = Pb²⁺ + Cd²⁺ (1)

In the second titration:

19.07mL = 0.01907L * (0.06950mol / L) = 1.325x10⁻³ moles Pb²⁺ in the aliquot. In the sample:

1.325x10⁻³ moles Pb²⁺ * (250.0mL / 50.0mL) =

6.626x10⁻³ moles Pb²⁺

That means the moles of Cd²⁺ are:

0.01004 moles = Cd²⁺ + 6.626x10⁻³ moles Cd²⁺

3.413x10⁻³ moles Cd²⁺

The mass of each ion is:

Cd²⁺ -Molar mass: 112.411g/mol-:

3.413x10⁻³ moles Cd²⁺ * (112.411g / mol) =

0.384g of Cd²⁺

Pb²⁺ -Molar mass: 207.2g/mol-:

6.626x10⁻³ moles Pb²⁺ * (207.2g / mol) =

1.373g of Pb²⁺

The percent mass of each ion is:

1.373g Pb²⁺ / 1.757g = 78.14% Pb²⁺

And:

0.384g of Cd²⁺ / 1.757g * 100 = 21.86% of Cd²⁺

Aqueous hydrochloric acid HCl will react with solid sodium hydroxide NaOH to produce aqueous sodium chloride NaCl and liquid wat

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

1.4 g H₂O

Explanation:

In a reaction, the reactants are usually not present in exact stoichiometric amounts, that is, in the proportions indicated by the balanced equation. Frequently a large excess of one reactant is supplied to ensure that the more expensive reactant is completely converted to the desired product. Consequently, some reactant will be left over at the end of the reaction. The reactant used up first in a reaction is called the limiting reagent, because the maximum amount of product formed depends on how much of this reactant was originally present. When this reactant is used up, no more product can be formed.
