Which property of water best explains why ice forms on its surface

1 answer:

5 0

The hydrogen bonding tendency of water causes it to be 'sticky,' in that water molecules tend to stick together (as in a puddle). This is known ascohesion. Because of this property, water has a high surface tension. This means that it takes a little extra force to break the surface of the water puddle.Mar 13, 2018

How many Liters are there in 51. 300 cm? (11 = 1000 cm)

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

4,572.67

Explanation:

11 divided by 1000= 90.90

44= 11x

x=4

4 x 11= 4000

44-51.300=6.300

6.300 x 90.90=572.67

4000 + 572.67 = the answer

Which of the following has no electrons? Use a periodic table. Question 1 options: H He H– He 2+ Save

Elodia [21]

An electron is a negatively charged subatomic particle present in the space outside the nucleus of an atom. The loss of electron from an atom results in the formation of cation whereas gaining of electron by an atom results in the formation of anion. The cation possesses positive charge due to loss of electron and anion possesses negative charge due to gain of electron.

The neutral atom has no charge on it.

For given atomic symbols:

The atomic number of hydrogen is 1 and the given symbol has no charge that means it is in its neutral state. So, the number of electrons in $H$ is 1.

$He$

The atomic number of helium is 2 and the given symbol has no charge that means it is in its neutral state. So, the number of electrons in $He$ is 2.

$H^{-}$

The atomic number of hydrogen is 1 and the given symbol has a negative charge that represents a gain of electron. So, the number of electrons in $H^{-}$ is 2.

$He^{2+}$

The atomic number of helium is 2 and the given symbol has two positive charge that represents loss of two electrons. So, the number of electrons in $He^{2+}$ is 0.

Hence, $He^{2+}$ has no electrons.

Small quantities of oxygen can be prepared in the laboratory by heating potassium chlorate, KClO 3 ( s ) . The equation for the

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

Mass of $O_2$ produced = 32 g

Explanation:

Calculation of the moles of $KClO_3$ as:-

Mass = 82.4 g

Molar mass of $KClO_3$ = 122.55 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{82.4\ g}{122.55\ g/mol}$

$Moles= 0.67237\ mol$

From the reaction shown below:-

$2KClO_3\rightarrow 2KCl+3O_2$

2 moles of potassium chlorate on reaction forms 3 moles of oxygen gas

So,

0.67237 moles of potassium chlorate on reaction forms $\frac{3}{2}\times 0.67237$ moles of oxygen gas

Moles of oxygen gas = 1 mole

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

<u>Mass of $O_2$ produced = 32 g</u>

A solution at 25 ∘C has pOH = 10.53. Which of the following statements is or are true? The solution is acidic. The pH of the sol

Lady bird [3.3K]

Answer:

The true statements are:

The solution is acidic

The pH of the solution is 14.00 - 10.53.

$10^{-10.53}=[OH^-]$

Explanation:

The pH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydrogen ion concentration present in the solution .

$pH=-\log[H^+]$

The pH value more 7 means that hydrogen ion concentration is less ,alkaline will be the solution.
The pH value less 7 means that hydrogen ion concentration is more ,acidic will be the solution.
The pH value equal to 7 indicates that the solution is neutral.

The pOH of the solution is defined as negative logarithm of hydroxide ion concentration present in the solution .

$pOH=-\log[OH^-]$
