When magnesium ribbon is ignited, it gives off a white fume of magnesium oxide. What is this type of reaction?

N76 [4]

“The trapping of the suns warmth in a planets lower atmosphere, due to the greater transparency of the atmosphere to visible radiation from the sun than to infrared radiation emitted from the planets surface.”

What determines crystal size in minerals formed by lava or magma?

Burka [1]

Answer:

When magma cools, crystals form because the solution is super-saturated with respect to some minerals. If the magma cools quickly, the crystals do not have much time to form, so they are very small. If the magma cools slowly, then the crystals have enough time to grow and become large.

g Tom's roommate Bob spilled crystal violet solution on his lab coat, and Tom offers to use some lye (sodium hydroxide solution)

irina [24]

Answer:

Tom is correct. The rate of reaction of Crystal violet and NaOH is first order with respect to NaOH, hence, a higher concentration of NaOH corresponds to a higher rate of reaction; a faster reaction.

This means the speed of cleaning depends on the concentration of the lye used.

Explanation:

The reaction between Crystal violet and NaOH, represented as

CV⁺ + OH⁻ → CVOH

It is a reaction that is know to turn the violet colour of the crystal violet colourless.

The rate of the reaction is also known to be second order; first order with respect to Crystal violet and first order with respect to NaOH.

This means that the rate of reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of NaOH provided all other parameters such as the rate constant and the concentration of Crystal violet are constant.

Hence, the reaction becomes faster with an increased concentration of NaOH.

So, Tom is right, concentrated lye solution would remove the stain faster.

Bob is wrong.

Hope this Helps!!!

Why does the high pressure air being released into the ballast tanks of a submarine cause it to rise quickly?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

Initially, the ballast tanks are filled with water. The weight of the submarine is equal to the upthrust of the water at the position of the submarine under water. When high pressure air is released into the ballast tanks displacing the water, the weight of the submarine becomes less than the upthrust of the water thus the net force is is upwards and it forces the sub to resurface. This is according to the Archimedes principle which states that a a body partially or wholly immersed in water displaces its own weight of the fluid in which it is immersed.

How many electrons in an atom can have each of the following quantum number or sublevel designations?

lutik1710 [3]

Answer: a:6 electrons, b:10electrons, c: 2electrons

Explanation:

1.Principle quantum number(n)

n is the number of shell, it is a positive integer. The maximum number of electrons in a shell is 2(n2)

2.Azimuthal quantum number(l)

l is the number of subshell in the principal shell

The name of subshell are s, p, d, f

The number of nodes in each subshell is

s is l=0, p is l=1, d is l=2, f is l=3.

Each shell can have 2 x l + 1 sublevels, and each sublevel can accommodate maximum of 2 electrons and have two electrons.

A. n=2, l=1 then 2 x 1 + 1= 3 subshell, 3*2= 6 electrons in the p subshell

b. 3d, d is l = 2 then 2 x 2 + 1 = 5 sublevels, 5*2=10 electrons in the d subshell

c. 4s, s is l=0 then 2 x 0 + 1 = 1 sublevel, 1*2=2 electrons in the s subshell.
