B. The time is likely between 40 - 80 seconds.

<u>Explanation:</u>

One group of students were asked to leave a whole mint in their mouth, not moving it around, and let it dissolve, which takes very long time to dissolve since there is lower frequency of collision among the saliva particles and mint.

Another group swirled a whole mint around in their mouths, so the frequency of collision between the saliva and the mint particles increases, there by increase in dissolving capacity, but the timing will be lesser when compared to other groups used mints broken into smaller pieces.

So the time for swirling is likely between 40 - 80 seconds.

Answer: Equilibrium concentration of $[Cl^-]$ at $50^0C$ is 4.538 M

Explanation:

Initial concentration of $CoCl_2$ = 0.056 M

Initial concentration of $Cl^-$ = 4.60 M

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

$COCl_2+2Cl^-\rightleftharpoons [CoCl_4]^{2-}+6H_2O$

Initial conc. 0.056 M 4.60 M 0 M 0 M

At eqm. conc. (0.056-x) M (4.60-2x) M (x) M (6x) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be,

$K_c=\frac{[CoCl_4]^{2-}\times [H_2O]^6}{[CoCl_2]^2\times [Cl^-]^2}$

Given : equilibrium concentration of $[CoCl_4]^{2-}$ =x = 0.031 M

Concentration of $Cl^-$ = (4.60-2x) M = $(4.60-2\times 0.031)$ =4.538 M

Thus equilibrium concentration of $[Cl^-]$ at $50^0C$ is 4.538 M

In the periodic table, the elements that are adjacent to the "stair step" are called _____. actinide series nonmetals metalloids

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:-

Metalloids

Explanation:-

The stair step line is a line in the periodic table that divides the metals on one side and the non metals on the other side. So the elements which lie on the stair step line must have properties in between those exhibited by the metals and those by the non metals.

Such elements we know are called metalloids. Thus In the periodic table, the elements that are adjacent to the "stair step" are called metalloids.

Which of the following represents the least number of molecues?

Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

Answer: a) 20g of H2O (18.02 g/mol) molecules=6.68x10^23

Explanation:

In order to find the amount of molecules of each of the options, we need to follow the following equation.

$molecules=\frac{mass(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{atomic weight(g/mol)}$

So, let´s get the number of molecules for each of the options.

$a) molecules=\frac{20(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{18.02(g/mol)}=6.68x10^{23}molecules$

$b) molecules=\frac{77(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{16.06(g/mol)}=2.89x10^{24}molecules$

$c) molecules=\frac{68(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{42.09(g/mol)}=9.73x10^{23}molecules$

$d) molecules=\frac{100(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{44.02(g/mol)}=1.37x10^{24}molecules$

$d) molecules=\frac{84(g)x6.022x10^{23}(molecules/mol) }{20.01(g/mol)}=2.53x10^{24}molecules$

the smalest number is in option a)

Best of luck.
