Answer:

Convection is the process of heat transfer in which hotter and therefore less dense matter floats to the top, while cooler and therefore more dense material sinks to the bottom to absorb heat.

Explanation:

Convection is one form of heat transfer; other forms include conduction and (heat) radiation (not exactly the same as the kind uranium emits).

This form of heat transfer is characterised by a use of current in a liquid, in which the sinking and rising create a current which has a shape of a loop.

This requires an outside source of heat, since to sustain the current, once the heated fluid rises up, it must lose heat to the environment to sink, but to rise it must gain heat again.

A mass of 100.0 g of NaCl is added to 100.0 mL of water, but not all of it dissolves. A mass of 59.5 grams of NaCl solid remains

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

The molarity of the dissolved NaCl is 6.93 M

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of NaCl = 100.0 grams

Volume of water = 100.0 mL = 0.1 L

Remaining mass NaCl = 59.5 grams

Molar mass NaCl= 58.44 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate the dissolved mass of NaCl

100 - 59. 5 = 40.5 grams

Step 3: Calculate moles

Moles NaCl = 40.5 grams / 58.44 g/mol

Moles NaCl = 0.693 moles

Step 4: Calculate molarity

Molarity = moles / volume

Molarity dissolved NaCl = 0.693 moles / 0.1 L

Molarity dissolved NaCl = 6.93 M

The molarity of the dissolved NaCl is 6.93 M

Can anyone help explain how to convert moles to grams and grams to moles im completely lost

Pepsi [2]

Simple dimensional analysis.

okay so youll need a periodic table to look up the molar mass. youll be given either an amount of grams or moles.

If the density of a 45.0 cm3 block of wood is 0.65 g/ml what is the mass of the wood?

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$\boxed {\tt mass=29.25 \ grams}$

Explanation:

The density formula is mass over volume.

$d=\frac{m}{v}$

Rearrange the formula for the mass, m. Multiply both sides of the formula by v.

$d*v=\frac{m}{v}*v$

$d*v=m$

Mass can be found by multiplying the density and volume. The density is 0.65 grams per milliliter and the volume is 45.0 cubic centimeters.

A cubic centimeter is equal to a milliliter.

Therefore, 45 cubic centimeters also equals 45 milliliters.

$d= 0.65 \ g/mL\\v= 45 \ mL$

Substitute the values into the formula.

$0.65 \ g/mL * 45 \ mL=m$

Multiply. Note the milliliters, or mL will cancel out.

$0.65 \ g * 45=m$

$29.25 \ g=m$

The mass of the wood is 29.25 grams.

How many kilojoules are released when 116 g of Cl2 reacts with silicon? Si(s)+2Cl2(g)→SiCl4(g)ΔH=−657kJ

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:- 537 kJ of heat is released.

Solution:- For the given equation, $\Delta H$ is -657 kJ and the coefficient of $Cl_2$ in the balanced equation is 2. It means 657 kJ of heat is released when 2 moles of chlorine are used. We need to calculate the heat released when 116 g of $Cl_2$ are used.

Grams of chlorine are converted to moles and then multiplied by the $\Delta H$ value and divided by the coefficient of chlorine and the set could be shown using dimensional analysis as:

$116gCl_2(\frac{1mol}{70.9g})(\frac{657kJ}{2mol})$

= 537.46 kJ

If we use the correct sig figs then it needs to be round off to three sig figs as the given grams of chlorine has only three sig figs. So, 537 kJ of heat is released.
