Why is an alloy is often more useful than a pure metal

Chemistry
1 answer:
mrs_skeptik [129]3 years ago
4 0
<h2>Answer:</h2>

A pure metal has specific properties. Sometimes we need that metal but with modified properties. So for the modification of properties we make alloys.

<h3>Explanation;</h3>
  • An alloy is a mixture of two elements, one of which is a metal.
  • Alloys often have properties that are different to the metals they contain.
  • This makes them more useful than the pure metals alone.
  • For example, alloys are often harder than the metal they contain.

What volume does 14 mol of gas occupy at STP? Round to the nearest hundredth.
Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The volume is 310 L

Explanation:

We use the ideal gas formula, with the constant R = 0.082 l atm / K mol. The STP conditions are 1 atm pressure and 273 K temperature. Solve for the formula, V (volume):

PV= nRT ---> V= (nRT)/P

V=( 14 mol x 0,082 l atm /K mol x 273 K)/ 1 atm

<em>V= 313,404 L</em>
