Answer:

Water is a compound made up of two elements—hydrogen and oxygen. ... They are both colorless, odorless gases , and they both readily react with other elements—making them "reactive" elements. But in many ways they are very different from each other. Hydrogen has the lowest density of all the elements.

One way to determine the degree of saturation of a solid-liquid solution is to drop a crystal of the solute into the solution.

Dafna1 [17]

The answer is D: Saturated.

A saturated solution is one in which the exact maximum amount of solute has been dissolved. So, new solute will not dissolve in the solution. In contrast, an unsaturated solution can hold more solute, so if that option were correct, the crystal would have dissolved.

The other two terms are a bit more complicated. A supersaturated solution is one holding an amount of solute above the sustainable limit. Because of that, when more solute is added, the solution will immediately adjust, and some solute will come out of solution in a precipitate. Because the crystal isn't growing, we can eliminate this option.

A concentrated solution is one holding a relatively large amount of solute. However, you can have concentrated solutions that are saturated and unconcentrated (the word for this is dilute) solutions that aren't saturated. Therefore, we can say that because the crystal doesn't dissolve, this solution is saturated, but we can't say with certainty that it is concentrated.

Because the first three options are invalid, as described above, while the scenario does describe a saturated solution, D is the correct answer.

When the following oxidation–reduction reaction in acidic solution is balanced, what is the lowest whole-number coefficient for

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

c. 8, product side

Explanation:

In order to balance a redox reaction we use the ion-electron method, which has the following steps:

Step 1: identify oxidation and reduction half-reaction.

Oxidation: MnO₄⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq)

Reduction: Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l)

Step 2: perform the mass balance adding H⁺ and H₂O where necessary

8 H⁺(aq) + MnO₄⁻(aq) → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l)

Step 3: perform the electrical balance adding electrons where necessary.

8 H⁺(aq) + MnO₄⁻(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l)

2 Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l) + 2 e⁻

Step 4: multiply both half-reactions by numbers that secure that the number of electrons gained and lost are the same.

2 × (8 H⁺(aq) + MnO₄⁻(aq) + 5 e⁻ → Mn²⁺(aq) + 4 H₂O(l))

5 × (2 Br⁻(aq) → Br₂(l) + 2 e⁻)

Step 5: add both half-reactions side to side.

16 H⁺(aq) + 2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 10 e⁻ + 10 Br⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 Br₂(l) + 10 e⁻

16 H⁺(aq) + 2 MnO₄⁻(aq) + 10 Br⁻(aq) → 2 Mn²⁺(aq) + 8 H₂O(l) + 5 Br₂(l)

A tank contains 90 kg of salt and 2000 L of water. Pure water enters a tank at the rate 6 L/min. The solution is mixed and drain

sashaice [31]

Answer:

a) 90 kg

b) 68.4 kg

c) 0 kg/L

Explanation:

Mass balance:

$-w=\frac{dm}{dt}$

w is the mass flow

m is the mass of salt

$-v*C=\frac{dm}{dt}$

v is the volume flow

C is the concentration

$C=\frac{m}{V+(6-3)*L/min*t}$

$-v*\frac{m}{V+(6-3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{dt}$

$-3*L/min*\frac{m}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{dt}$

$-3*L/min*\frac{dt}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\frac{dm}{m}$

$-3*L/min*\int_{0}^{t}\frac{dt}{2000L+(3)*L/min*t}=\int_{90kg}^{m}\frac{dm}{m}$

$-[ln(2000L+3*L/min*t)-ln(2000L)]=ln(m)-ln(90kg)$

$-ln[(2000L+3*L/min*t)/2000L]=ln(m/90kg)$

$m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*t)]$

a) Initially: t=0

$m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*0)]=90kg$

b) t=210 min (3.5 hr)

$m=90kg*[2000L/(2000L+3*L/min*210min)]=68.4kg$

c) If time trends to infinity the division trends to 0 and, therefore, m trends to 0. So, the concentration at infinit time is 0 kg/L.

Draw a schematic of the hydrogen atom with the single proton in the nucleus, and the n=1, n=2, n=3, and n=4 energy level options

max2010maxim [7]

Explanation:

According to Bohr's postulates, the electron in the present in the lower energy level can absorb energy and exits to higher energy level. Also, when this electron returns back to its orbit, it emits some energy.

Since the hydrogen consists of 1 electron and 1 proton. The lowest energy configuration of the hydrogen is when n =1 or, when the electron is present in the K-shell or the ground state.

The possible transition for the electron given in the question is :

n = 2, 3 and 4

The schematic diagram of the hydrogen atom consisting of these four quantum levels in which the electron can jump (Absorption) and comeback to from these energy levels (emission) .
