Use the conservation of mass to explain why a rusty nail weighs more than the original nail.

Chemistry
1 answer:
cricket20 [7]3 years ago

<h3><u>Answer and Explanation</u>;</h3>
  • Rust is iron oxide, a molecule consisting of iron and oxygen. The mass of the iron in the rust molecules comes from the original nail, but the mass of the oxygen has come from the air.
  • When rust forms on iron, the mass of the iron object is increased by the mass of the oxygen that has combined with some of the iron.
  • Rusty iron weighs more because the iron reacts with oxygen in the air to form oxides which are solids which appear to grow on the iron as more oxygen comes along.

Formula los siguientes compuesto: Dietil eter, Etanol, Propanotriol, Acido Propanodioico, Pentanal, Pentano-2,4-diona, Metanoato
viva [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

En este caso para formular los compuestos, debes identificar el grupo funcional principal de la molecula. Una vez que eso está hecho, puedes intentar formularlo.

Empezaremos primero identificando el grupo funcional principal de la molécula, para luego formularlo correctamente.

Dietil eter: la terminación eter al final significa que pertenece al grupo de los éteres, el cual tiene como formula general R - O - R.

Etanol: debido a que termina en ol, este grupo pertenece a los alcoholes. Para formularlo solo se dibuja la molecula del etano, junto a un enlace con el grupo OH, como su formula general R - OH.

Propanotriol: igualmente termina en ol, por lo tanto es un alcohol, sin embargo, en este caso, tambien tiene la terminación prefija tri, asi que significa que hay 3 grupos OH en la molecula.

Acido propanodioico: esta es sencilla, porque empieza como acido, y solo hay un grupo funcional que empieza así y son los acidos carboxilicos, es decir, el grupo COOH (R - COOH) que es el carboxilo. Tiene el prefijo di, antes del oico, por lo que son dos carboxilos presentes en la molecula.

Pentanal: el sufijo al, significa que pertenece al grupo de los aldehidos, en este caso, posee el grupo carbonilo H - C = O.

Pentano - 2,4 - diona: la terminación ona significa que pertenece al grupo de las cetonas, (R - CO - R), parecido a los aldehidos, con la diferencia de que tiene grupos alquilos en lugar de un hidrogeno.

Metanoato de metilo: la terminación ato de ilo, pertenece a los esteres, (R - COOR) derivado de los acidos carboxilicos.

De aqui en adelante solo mencionaré los grupos funcionales pues ya se explicó el por que, por sus terminaciones:

Ciclohexano - 1.3 - diol: este pertenece a los alcoholes.

Acido heptanoico: acido carboxilico

Ciclobutil metil eter: eteres

Acetato de etilo: ester

2-metilbenzaldehído: aldehído unido a un grupo aromatico como el benceno.

Ciclohexanona: un ciclo (cadena cerrada) unido a un grupo carbonilo.

Butanona: cetona.

Which of the following is an example of a change of state?
lord [1]

Answer:

Option B

Explanation:

  • For Option A the state is not changing but just has different look now.
  • For Option B the state is changing from gas to liquid drops due to cold glass
  • For Option C it hasn't changed state as both corn and flower is solid
  • For Option D paper and ash are both solids

Therefore our answer must be Option B

Ultraviolet radiation and radiation of shorter wavelengths can damage biological molecules because they carry enough energy to b
Alja [10]

Answer:

439.7nm

Explanation:

Energy of a quantum can be calculated using below formula

E=hv...........eqn(1)

But v=λ/ c .........eqn(2)

If we substitute eqn(2) into eqn(1) we have

E= hc/(λ)

Where E= energy

h= Plank's constant= 6.62607004 × 10-34 m2 kg / s

c= speed of light

c= 2.998 × 10^8 m/s

λ= wavelength= ?

But the energy was given in Kj , it must be converted to Kj/ photon for unit consistency.

Energy E= 272 kJ/mol × 1mol/6.02× 10^23

Energy= 451.83× 10^-24 Kj/ photon

E= hc/(λ)...........eqn(1)

If we make λ subject of the formula

λ= hc/E

Then substitute the values we have

λ= [(6.626 × 10^-34) × (2.998 × 10^8)]/451.83× 10^-24

λ=(0.00043965) × (1Kj/1000J) × (10^9nm/1m)

λ=439.7nm

Hence, the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon-sulfur bonds is 439.7nm
