Answer: Nichrome
Explanation: Hot water system coils are commonly made up of metal alloys which are a combination of two or more elements. The most commonly used metal alloy is “Nichrome”. Nichrome is an alloy of nickel (80%) and chromium (20%).
Answer:
1. Students need to measure masses of the items.
2. Put baking soda and vinegar in a plastic bag and close it.
3. Mix the two, allowing for a reaction to occur.
4. Figure the mass of the plastic bag while the two components are inside.
5. The combined mass should be equal to what each weighed on their own.
Explanation:
The empirical formula of the compound is C. NiF₂.
<em>Step 1</em>. Calculate the <em>moles of each element</em>
The empirical formula is the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms in a compound.
The ratio of atoms is the same as the ratio of moles.
So, our job is to calculate the molar ratio of Ni to F.
Moles of Ni = 9.11 g Ni × (1 mol Ni /(58.69 g Ni) = 0.1552 mol Ni
Moles of F = 5.89 g F × (1 mol F/19.00 g F) = 0.3100 mol F
<em>Step 2</em>. Calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of the elements
Divide each number by the smallest number of moles
Ni:F = 0.1552:0.3100 = 1:1.997 ≈ 1:2
<em>Step 3</em>: Write the <em>empirical formula</em>
EF = NiF₂
Answer:
Explanation:
(a) Answer: Intermolecular forces
The reason for this answer is because the substance (paraffin wax) only changed it's state from solid to liquid and didn't undergo a breakage in it's covalent bond within it's carbon chain which would have produced another substance.
(b) Solid substances are generally more dense than there corresponding liquid substances because the more compact particles are (which occurs in solids), the more dense they become. They are thus more dense than liquids because liquids have there particles loosely packed and well spaced making them less dense than there corresponding solids. Hence, the solid paraffin wax was going to become less dense because it's particles moved from being tightly packed (as solids) to being loosely packed (as liquids). Density refers to mass per volume but can also be described as the level of compactness of a substance. Thus, since liquid is not as compact as solid, it can be said to be less dense than solids.
Answer:
Explanation:
E = (hc)/(λ)
E = (6.624x10^(-27))Js x ((3×10^8)ms^(-1)) /
(77.8x10^(-9)m)
E = 2.55 x 10^(-11) J
