Answer: B. Water

Explanation:

Solar, water and wind are the renewable resources. They are abundantly available in nature and are replenishable. Due to human intervention the most affected resource is water. As water is required for various activities by human society. With the use in large scale such a resource is also contaminated by humans due to sewage discharge in water bodies, industrial discharge, disposal of wastes and even the cremation of humans a ritual practice is performed in water bodies. This will likely to deplete the available freshwater for future.

To separate a mixture of iron filings and salt, the most efficient method would be
GaryK [48]

Answer:

Explanation:

Of course you could do the separation chemically. Dissolve the salt up in water, pass thru a filter, wash the iron filings with ethanol, which would encourage the salt to precipitate from solution.

I do hope I helped you! :)

Given that the freezing point depression constant for water is 1.86°c kg/mol, calculate the change in freezing point for a 0.907
melamori03 [73]

Answer : The correct answer for change in freezing point = 1.69 ° C

Freezing point depression :

It is defined as depression in freezing point of solvent when volatile or non volatile solute is added .

SO when any solute is added freezing point of solution is less than freezing point of pure solvent . This depression in freezing point is directly proportional to molal concentration of solute .

It can be expressed as :

ΔTf = Freezing point of pure solvent - freezing point of solution = i* kf * m

Where : ΔTf = change in freezing point (°C)

i = Von't Hoff factor

kf =molal freezing point depression constant of solvent.\frac{^0 C}{m}

m = molality of solute (m or \frac{mol}{Kg} )

Given : kf = 1.86 \frac{^0 C*Kg}{mol}

m = 0.907 \frac{mol}{Kg} )

Von't Hoff factor for non volatile solute is always = 1 .Since the sugar is non volatile solute , so i = 1

Plugging value in expression :

ΔTf = 1* 1.86 \frac{^0 C*Kg}{mol} * 0.907\frac{mol}{Kg} )

ΔTf = 1.69 ° C

Hence change in freezing point = 1.69 °C

Which of the following is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds? 1. Li 2. Cl 3. N 4. H 5. F
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: Option (3) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of lithium is 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1. So, to attain stability it will loose an electron and hence, it forms a single bond.

Atomic number of chlorine is 17 and it has 7 valence electrons. Hence, in order to attain stability it will gain one electron and therefore, it forms a single bond only.

Atomic number of nitrogen is 7 and its electronic distribution is 2, 5. Therefore, to attain stability it needs to gain 3 more electrons. Hence, a nitrogen atom is able to form a triple bond and also it is able to form a double bond.

Hydrogen has atomic number 1 and it attains stability by gaining one electron. Therefore, a hydrogen atoms always forms a single bond.

Atomic number of fluorine is 9 and its electronic distribution is 2, 7. To complete its octet it needs to gain one electron. Hence, a fluorine atom always forms a single bond.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options nitrogen is most likely to form multiple (double or triple) bonds.

An emerald gemstone is an impure form of the mineral beryl, Be3Al2Si16O18. What is the percentage of silicon in the mineral?
solong [7]

Answer:

b. 54.9%

Explanation:

An emerald gemstone has the formula Be₃Al₂Si₁₆O₁₈. We can find the mass of each element in 1 mole of Be₃Al₂Si₁₆O₁₈ by multiplying the molar mass of the element by its atomicity.

Be: 3 × 9.01 g = 27.03 g

Al: 2 × 26.98 g = 53.96 g

Si: 16 × 28.09 g = 449.4 g

O: 18 × 16.00 g = 288.0 g

Total mass = 818.4 g

The mass percentage of silicon is:

(449.4 g / 818.4 g) × 100% = 54.91%
