<h2>Answer:</h2>

It means the waves collides and constructive interference occurred.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

If the two waves coming from the opposite direction collide with each other, there are two way of their interference.

Constructive interference: An interference which results in the increase in energy. And it is when crust of a wave comes on the crust of second wave.
Destructive interference: An interference which results in decrease in energy of the resulting wave and colliding waves cancel the result of each other.

Hence in experiment there will be constructive interference.

When dissolved in water, all acids will

poizon [28]

When dissolved in water, acids donate hydrogen ions (H+). Hydrogen ions are hydrogen atoms that have lost an electron and now have just a proton, giving them a positive electrical charge. ... If a solution has a high concentration of H+ ions, then it is acidic.

Tear off a small, flat sheet of waxed paper. Use the pipette to dispense a drop of water on the waxed paper. Now, dry the pipett

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Explanation:

When comparing the drops of oil and water, one thing I noticed was the shape. The water drop was more defined, whereas the drop of oil began to spread and was much flatter. This may be due to the waxy material, and how both oil and water react to the wax.

The decomposition of N_2O_5(g) following 1st order kinetics. N_2O_5(g) to N_2O_4(g) + ½ O_2(g) If 2.56 mg of N_2O_5 is initially

Crank

Answer: The rate constant is $0.334s^{-1}$

Explanation ;

Expression for rate law for first order kinetics is given by:

$t=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{a}{a-x}$

where,

k = rate constant = ?

t = age of sample = 4.26 min

a = initial amount of the reactant = 2.56 mg

a - x = amount left after decay process = 2.50 mg

Now put all the given values in above equation to calculate the rate constant ,we get

$4.26=\frac{2.303}{k}\log\frac{2.56}{2.50}$

$k=\frac{2.303}{4.26}\log\frac{2.56}{2.50}$

$k=5.57\times 10^{-3}min^{-1}=5.57\times 10^{-3}\times 60s^{-1}=0.334s^{-1}$

Thus rate constant is [tex]0.334s^{-1}

What is the freezing point of a solution of 498mL of water (solute) dissolved in 2.50 L of ethanol (solvent), C2H5OH? The densit

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

Freezing T° of solution is -142.4°C

Explanation:

This excersise is about colligative properties, in this case freezing point depression,

ΔT = Kf . m . i

Where ΔT = Freezing T° of solvent - Freezing T° of solution

Kf = Cryoscopic constant

m = mol/kg (molality)

i = Number of ions dissolved.

Water is not ionic, so i = 1

Let's find out m.

We determine mass of water, by density

498ml . 1 g/mL = 498 g

We convert the mass of water to moles → 498 g . 1mol/18g = 27.6 moles

We determine mass of solvent by density

2500 mL . 0.789 g/mL = 1972.5 g

Notice, we had to convert L to mL to cancel units.

1 cm³ = 1 mL

We convert the mass from g to kg → 1972.5 g . 1kg /1000g = 1.97kg

We determine m = mol/kg → 27.6mol / 1.97kg = 13.9 m

Kf for ethanol is: 1.99 °C/m

Freezing T° for ethanol is: -114.6°C

We replace at formula: - 114.6°C - Freezing T° solution = 1.99 °C/m . 13.9 m . 1

- 114.6°C - Freezing T° solution = 27.8 °C

- Freezing T° solution = 27.8°C + 114.6°C

Freezing T° Solution = - 142.4 °C
