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

Chemistry
1 answer:
cricket20 [7]4 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.

What mass of octane must be burned in order to liberate 5270 kj of heat? δhcomb = -5471 kj/mol?
katrin2010 [14]
As,
                           5471 kJ heat is given by  =  1 mole of Octane
Then,
                    5310 kJ heat will be given by  = X moles of Octane

Solving for X,
                                  X  =  (5310 kJ × 1 mol) ÷ 5471 kJ

                                  X  =  0.970 moles of Ocatne

So, 0.970 moles of Octane will liberate 5310 kJ energy. Now changing moles to mass,
As,
                                  Moles  =  mass / M.mass
Or,
                                  Mass  =  Moles × M.mass
Putting values,
                                  Mass  =  0.970 mol × 114.23 g/mol

                                  Mass  =  110.83 g of Octane

Water flows over Niagara Falls at the average rate of 2,400,000 kg/s, and the average height of the falls is about 50 m. Knowing
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

1) The power of Niagara Falls is 1.176 × 10⁹ W

2) The number of 15 W LED light bulbs it could power is 78.4 × 10⁶ light bulbs

Explanation:

1) The Niagara falls water mass flow rate = 2,400,000 kg/s

The height of the fall = 50 meters

The gravitational potential energy = Mass (kg) × height (m) × gravity (9.8 m/s²)

The power = The energy converted per second = Mass flow rate (kg/s) × height (m) × gravity (9.8 m/s²)

Therefore;

The power of Niagara Falls= 2,400,000 kg/s × 50 m ×9.8 m/s²= 1.176 × 10⁹ W

The power of Niagara Falls = 1.176 × 10⁹ W

2) The number, n, of 15 W LED light bulbs it could power is given by the relation;

n × 15 W = 1.176 × 10⁹ W

∴ n = 1.176 × 10⁹ W/(15 W) = 78.4 × 10⁶ light bulbs

The number of 15 W LED light bulbs it could power = 78.4 × 10⁶ light bulbs.

You have a solution that is 0.02M formate (HCOO-) and 0.03M formic acid (HCOOH), which has a Ka of 1.8x10-4. What is the pH of t
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

3.6

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Concentration of formic acid: 0.03 M
  • Concentration of formate ion: 0.02 M
  • Acid dissociation constant (Ka): 1.8 × 10⁻⁴

Step 2: Calculate the pH

We have a buffer system formed by a weak acid (HCOOH) and its conjugate base (HCOO⁻). We can calculate the pH using the <em>Henderson-Hasselbach equation</em>.

pH = pKa +log\frac{[base]}{[acid]} = -log 1.8 \times 10^{-4} + log \frac{0.02}{0.03} = 3.6
