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.

A buffer with a pH of 3.98 contains 0.23 M of sodium benzoate and 0.38 M of benzoic acid. What is the concentration of [H3O+] in
Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

New pH = 3.84

Explanation:

First of all we may think that if the buffer has pH 3.98 and we're adding H⁺, pH's buffer will be lower, as the [H⁺] is been increased.

Let's determine the moles of each compound:

0.23 M . 1.3L = 0.299 moles of NaBz

0.38 M . 1.3L = 0.494 moles of HBz

We add 0.058 of HCl, which is the same as 0.058 moles of H⁻

HCl →  H⁺  +  Cl⁻

As we add the moles of protons, these are going to react to the Bz⁻

In the buffer system we have these dissociations:

NaBz  →  Na⁺  +  Bz⁻

HBz →  H⁺  + Bz⁻

So, as we add protons, we have a new equilibrium:

          Bz⁻      +      H⁺       ⇄   HBz    

In    0.299         0.058          0.494

Eq   0.241               -              0.552

Protons are substracted to benzoate, so the [HBz] is now higher than before. We calculate the new pH, with the Henderson Hasselbach equation

pH = pKa + log (Bz⁻/HBz)

pH = 4.20 + log (0.241 / 0.552) → 3.84

A mixture of caco3 and (nh4)2co3 is 60.7 % co3 by mass. part a find the mass percent of caco3 in the mixture.
blagie [28]

The mixture contains:

CaCO3 + (NH4)2CO3 in which the amount of carbonate CO3 = 60.7% by mass

Let, the total mass = 100 grams

Mass of CaCO3 = x grams

Mass of (NH4)2CO3 = y grams

Thus,       x + y = 100 ------------(1)

Mass of CO3 = 60.7% = 60.7 g

Molar mass of CO3 = 60 g/mol

Total # moles of CO3 = 60.7 g/60 g.mol-1 = 1.012 moles

The total moles of CO3 comes from CaCO3 and (NH4)2CO3. Therefore,

moles CaCO3 + moles (NH4)2CO3 = 1.012

mass CaCO3/molar mass CaCO3 + mass (NH4)2 CO3/molar mass = 1.012

x/100 + y/96 = 1.012---------(2)

based on equation 1 we can write: y = 100-x

x/100 + (100-x)/96 = 1.012

x = 71.2 g

Mass of CaCO3 = 71.2 g

Corn plants and milkweed plants grow in the same area. Over several years, the milkweed plants have taken over the field and the
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the complete part of the question is as follows:

This best demonstrates which type of an interaction between the plants?

A. cooperation

B. parasitism

C. commensalism

D. competition

The answer is D

Explanation:

Organisms in their natural environment interact with one another in so many ways. The ways by which this interaction occurs are; competition, predation, commensalism etc.

Competition is the interaction between two organisms in which one or both organisms are harmed due to limited resources. Competition occurs when the organisms involved occupy the same niche or utilize the same limited resources.

In this question involving corn plants and milkweed plants. They are said to grow in the same area. Over several years, the milkweed plants have taken over the field and the corn plants no longer have space to grow. In this case, there is a limited space for growth, hence, the corn plant and milkweed COMPETE.

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

<u><em>Hope it helped </em></u>↓

Explanation:

Electromagnets are basically coils of wire which behave like bar magnets with a distinct north and south pole when an electrical current passes through the coil. The static magnetic field produced by each individual coil loop is summed with its neighbor with the combined magnetic field concentrated like the single wire loop we looked at in the last tutorial in the center of the coil. The resultant static magnetic field with a north pole at one end and a south pole at the other is uniform and a lot more stronger in the center of the coil than around the exterior. So a good question could be "Are electromagnets a magnet that respells, or attracts?" Then find away to explain that question/

(you don't have to do this question it is just a example.)
