Why is graphite used as a lubricant

Chemistry
2 answers:
Korvikt [17]3 years ago
6 0

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.

820 g Li2SO4 is dissolved into 2500 mL of solution. What is the molar concentration?
Andreas93 [3]

Molarity is defined as the moles of solute per liter of solution. M=\frac{n}{V}. Where M is molarity, n is the number of moles and V is the volume. First we must find the molar mass of Li_2SO_4 which is 109.98 g/mol

Li_2SO_4= 2 \times Li_{Ar} + S_{Ar} + 4 \times O_{Ar}\\= (2 \times 6.941 + 32.1 + 4 \times 16.0) = 109.98 g/mol

820\ g\ Li_2SO_4 \times \frac{mol}{109.98\ g}= 7.46\ mol\ Li_2SO4

Then we find the molarity using above equation

M= \frac{n}{V} = \frac{7.46 mol}{2500ml} \times\frac{1000ml}{L} = 2.98\ M

How many atoms are in 2.10 g of K? molar mass of K=39.10g/mole.
Alborosie

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option B</h3>

Explanation:

To calculate the number of atoms we must first calculate the number of moles

Molar mass = mass / number of moles

number of moles = mass / Molar mass

Molar mass (K) = 39.10mole

mass = 2.10g

number of moles = 2.10/ 39.10

= 0.0537mol

After that we use the formula

N = n × L

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10^23 entities

Number of K atoms is

N = 0.0537 × 6.02 × 10^13

<h3>N = 3.23×10^22 atoms of K</h3>

Hope this helps you.
