The element mercury was first discovered on the Sun. a. True b. False

Chemistry
1 answer:
ahrayia [7]3 years ago
8 0
This statement is FALSE. Mercury was not first discovered in the sun. In fact, mercury or quicksilver was discovered by ancient Indians and Chinese even before 2000 BC. Its ores that are called cinnabar are used in traditional Chinese medicines. However, the effectiveness is not yet justified because of the toxicity of the element. Mercury is also used with thermometers both in clinical and lab uses. Nowadays, the use of it in thermometers is gradually disappearing because of its harmful properties. <span> </span>

Which of the halide ions (f−, cl−, br−, and i−) is the most stable base? which is the least stable base?
Nezavi [6.7K]
You should take note that the question is about stability. A compound is stable if it does not easily react with other elements. Hence, its reactivity must be low. As you move down the group, reactivity decreases. So, the halide at the very bottom is the least reactive. It would then be logical that the most stable conjugate base is I⁻ and the least stable conjugate base is the most reactive which is F⁻.

7.5 moles of nitrogen gas (N2) is formed in the following reaction. How many grams
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Mass = 255 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of nitrogen = 7.5 mol

Mass of ammonia formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3H₂ + N₂      →    2NH₃

Now we will compare the moles of nitrogen and ammonia.

             N₂         :        NH₃

               1          :         2

              7.5       :       2/1×7.5 = 15

Mass of ammonia:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 15 mol × 17 g/mol

Mass = 255 g

Charles’ Law can be expressed mathematically as V=kT. If the constant k for 6.0 L of gas is 0.020 L/K (liters per kelvin), what
kozerog [31]

Answer: 300 K

Explanation:

Charles' Law: This law states that volume is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure and number of moles.

V\propto T    (At constant pressure and number of moles)

V=kT

Given : V= 6.0 L

k= 0.020 L/K

T=?

6.0=0.020LK^{-1}\times T

T=300 K

Thus temperature of the gas is 300 K.
