Why is graphite used as a lubricant

Chemistry

Korvikt [17]3 years ago

There are weaker covalent bonds between these layers, hence they can easily slide over each other. Due to this, it is a lubricant, since the layers slide over each other so easily. ... Graphite is a mineral made of loosely bonded sheets of carbon atoms, giving it a slippery texture that makes it a very effective lubricant.

Which is true of a solute dissolved in a solvent? the solute raises the boiling point of the solvent. the solvent decreases the
Lina20 [59]
When a solute is dissolved in a solvent the solute raises the boiling point of the solvent. The boiling point of a liquid (a solvent) will be higher when another compound (solute) is added, such that a solution has a higher boiling point than a pure solvent. This takes place when a non-volatile solute, such as a salt, is added to a pure solvent such as water.

“Dry ice” is the solid form of carbon dioxide. Determine the number of mass of CO2 gas in grams that are present in 61.8 L of CO
Fofino [41]

Answer:

Mass  = 121 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass in gram of CO₂ = ?

Volume = 61.8 L

Pressure = standard = 1 atm

Temperature = 273.15 K

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

1 atm × 61.8 L = n ×0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K   × 273.15 k

61.8 L.atm = 22.42 atm.L/ mol × n

n = 61.8 L.atm /22.42 atm.L/ mol

n = 2.76 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass =  number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 2.76 mol × 44 g/mol

Mass  = 121 g
