Answer:

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is a mild surfactant.

Explanation:

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is an anionic surfactant. A surfactant is a compound that helps in mixing the matters (solid, liquid, and gas) with one another. It functions by decreasing the surface tension between the two matters. Primarily they are used to mix water with oil. After getting mixed, they help in washing the dirt away.

Ammonium Lauryl Sulfate is a mild surfactant as compared to surfactant as compared to Sodium Lauryl Sulfate in terms of irritation. It is used as one of the components in cosmetics and toiletry formulations. It acts as a surface mixing agent for foaming, wetting and dispersing.

From Young's experiment, how does the frequency of light affect the number of lines observed?
Marina CMI [18]

Answer : (C) "Higher frequencies have larger spaces between lines".

Explanation:

In Young's experiment, the condition for constructive interference is given by :

dsin\theta=n\lambda.........(1)

n is order or number of lines observed

d is distance between slits

\theta is the angle between the path and the line from screen to the slits.

We also know that, c=\nu \lambda

or

\lambda=\dfrac{c}{\nu}

where,

c is the speed of light

\nu is frequency

\lambda is wavelength

So, equation (1) turns into

dsin\theta=n\dfrac{c}{\nu}

\nu=\dfrac{n\ c}{d\ sin\theta}

So,

\nu\propto n

or

Higher frequencies have larger spaces between line.

So, correct option is (C).

Calculate the mass of water produced when 42 g of propane, c3h8, is burned with 115 g of oxygen
gavmur [86]
The balanced combustion reaction of propane, C₃H₈, is

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

Molar mass of propane: 44 g/mol
Moles of propane = 42 g * (1 mol/44g) = 0.9545 mol propane

Molar mass of oxygen: 32 g/mol
Moles of oxygen = 115 g * (1 mol/32 g) = 3.594 mol oxygen

Moles of oxygen needed to completely react propane:
0.9545 mol propane * (5 mol O₂/1 mol propane) = 4.7725 mol oxygen

Since the available oxygen is only 3.594 moles and propane needs 4.7725 moles, that means oxygen is our limiting reactant. We base the amount of water produced here.

Molar mass of water: 18 g/mol
Mass of water produced = 3.594 mol O₂ * (4 mol H₂O/5 mol O₂) * (18 g/mol)
Mass of water produced = 258.768 grams

If the two atoms participating in a bond have an electron negativity difference of 1.9 , what type of of bond would they be part
brilliants [131]

Answer:

Polar covalent bond.

Explanation:

When the bond is formed between the atoms by sharing the electrons the bond thus have covalent character.   The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.  When the electronegativity difference is less than 0.4 the bond is non polar covalent.

When bonded atoms have greater electronegativity difference i.e 2 or greater than two the bond is ionic because electron is transfer from low electronegative atom to highest electronegative atom.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.

In case of H₂, Cl₂, Br₂ the bond has very high covalent character because of zero electronegativity difference.
