What are the disadvantages of aluminium fir building cars

Chemistry
1 answer:
Wittaler [7]3 years ago
4 0

Disadvantages of aluminum in building cars include:

On average, aluminum is more expensive than steel, as much as two to three times.

Aluminum is not easily welded. If a steel door or panel suffers a crack, often it cam be welded back together easily, primed and repainted so its difficult to tell any body work has been performed. This cannot be done with aluminum. Steel  also can be bent and shaped as needed.

Body shops and even dealer service centers  are currently  equipped for steel work with technicians skilled in the art of welding and steel fabrication. The cost of switching over to an infra structure designed specifically for all-aluminum  vehicles or mass production of aluminum vehicles and components would be high.

You have 1.0 mole of each compound below. which has the greatest mass?
kramer
(a) Iron (iii) sulphate:
From the periodic table:
mass of iron = 55.845 grams
mass of sulphur = 32.065 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Iron (iii) sulphate has the formula: Fe2(SO4)3
molar mass = 2(55.845) + 3(32.065) + 3(4)(16) = 399.885 grams

(b) Sodium hydroxide:
From the periodic table:
mass of sodium = 22.989 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
Sodium hydroxide has the formula: NaOH
molar mass = 22.989 + 16 + 1 = 39.989 grams

(c) Barium carbonate
From the periodic table:
mass of barium = 137.327 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Barium carbonate has the formula: BaCO3
molar mass = 137.327 + 12 + 3(16) = 197.327 grams

(d) ammonium nitrate:
From the periodic table:
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Ammonium nitrate has the formula: NH4NO3
molar mass = 14 + 4(1) + 14 + 3(16) = 80 grams

(e) Lead (iv) oxide
From the periodic table:
mass of lead = 207.2 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Lead (iv) oxide has the formula: PbO2
molar mass = 207.2 + 2(16) = 239.2 grams

From the above calculations, we can see that:
Iron (iii) sulphate has the greatest mass.

The energy that a log has is transformed when burned. How does the chemical energy of the log compare to the heat and light ener
SCORPION-xisa [38]
The amount of chemical energy is equal to the amount of heat and light energy.

This is due to the principle of conservation of energy, which states that the total energy of a system remains constant.

how does photosynthesis and respiration in plants influence the amount of co2 in the atmosphere during a year?
Oliga [24]

Answer:

An increase in the amount of CO2 well increase the rate of photosynthesis, Carbon dioxide concentration will directly affect the rate of photosynthesis as it is used in the photosynthesis reaction.Increased amount of CO2 will increase the rate of photosynthesis to a certain limit, after which a further increase in its amount will no longer increase the rate any further.

Hope this helps.

Cheers! :)
