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

Answer: 0.151

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$2HBr(g)\rightarrow H_2(g)+Br_2(g$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

$Rate=-\frac{1d[HBr]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[H_2]}{2dt}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}$

Given: $-\frac{d[HBr]}{dt}]=0.301$

Putting in the values we get:

$\frac{0.301}{2}=+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}$

$+\frac{1d[Br_2]}{dt}=0.151$

Thus the rate of appearance of $Br_2$ is 0.151

assume in a different experiment, you prepare a mixture containing 10.0 M FeSCN2+, 1.0 M H+, 0.1 MFe3+ and 0.1 M HSCN. Is the in

Katarina [22]

Answer:

The mixture is not in equilibrium, the reaction will shift to the left.

Explanation:

Based on the equilibrium:

Fe³⁺+ HSCN ⇄ FeSCN²⁺ + H⁺

kc = 30 = [FeSCN²⁺] [H⁺] / [Fe³⁺] [HSCN]

Where [] are concentrations at equilibrium. The reaction is in equilibrium when the ratio of concentrations = kc

Q is the same expression than kc but with [] that are not in equilibrium

Replacing:

Q = [10.0M] [1.0M] / [0.1M] [0.1M]

Q = 1000

As Q > kc, the reaction will shift to the left in order to produce Fe³⁺ and HSCN untill Q = Kc

I NEED HELP PLEASE, THANKS! :)

EleoNora [17]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{2.20 g Pb}}$

Explanation:

They gave us the masses of two reactants and asked us to determine the mass of the product.

This looks like a limiting reactant problem.

1. Assemble the information

We will need a chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

Mᵣ: 239.27 32.00 207.2

2PbS + 3O₂ ⟶ 2Pb + 2SO₃

m/g: 2.54 1.88

2. Calculate the moles of each reactant

$\text{Moles of PbS} = \text{2.54 g PbS } \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol PbS}}{\text{239.27 g PbS}} = \text{0.010 62 mol PbS}\\\\\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{1.88 g O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}} = \text{0.058 75 mol O}_{2}$

3. Calculate the moles of Pb from each reactant

$\textbf{From PbS:}\\\text{Moles of Pb} = \text{0.010 62 mol PbS} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Pb}}{\text{2 mol PbS}} = \text{0.010 62 mol Pb}\\\\\textbf{From O}_{2}:\\\text{Moles of Pb} =\text{0.058 75 mol O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Pb}}{\text{3 mol O}_{2}}= \text{0.039 17 mol Pb}\\\\\text{PbS is the $\textbf{limiting reactant}$ because it gives fewer moles of Pb}$

4. Calculate the mass of Pb

$\text{ Mass of Pb} = \text{0.010 62 mol Pb} \times \dfrac{\text{207.2 g Pb}}{\text{1 mol Pb}} = \textbf{2.20 g Pb}\\\\\text{The reaction produces $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.20 g Pb}}$}$
