Answer:

yes

Explanation:

Usually, it would not affect the crucible, but depending on the temperature of the flame the enamel of the crucible may begin to melt and stick to the metal object being used to handle the crucible. This tiny amount that is melted off can cause very small changes in the original mass of the crucible, which although it is almost unnoticeable it is still there. Therefore, the answer to this question would be yes.

Which wind blows cool air toward the sea at night ?

alexira [117]

Answer:

Land breeze is the wind that blows cool air from land towards sea at night.

Explanation:

Land breeze is a type of wind which is cool and blows towards sea. It occurs due to the difference in the temperature of water and land. At night, the lands cool quickly due to the removal of heat from it. So the air that is present on land is cool down and this air moves towards sea. So this breez is called land breeze because it moves from land.

How hard is Stoichiometry?<br> Just want to know since I'm about to do a lesson on it..

DanielleElmas [232]

Stoichiometry is not really hard if you are good with your numbers. All you have to do is pay close attention and follow you teacher because if you don't you will end up like me not knowing what you are doing. Listen and pay real close attention and I can guarantee you it will be just fine!

What is the pH of a mixture of 0.042 M NaH2PO4 and 0.058 M Na2HPO4? Hint: The pKa of phosphate is 6.86.

AlekseyPX

Answer:

The pH value of the mixture will be 7.00

Explanation:

Mono and disodium hydrogen phosphate mixture act as a buffer to maintain pH value around 7. Henderson–Hasselbalch equation is used to determine the pH value of a buffer mixture, which is mathematically expressed as,

$pH=pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Base]}{[Acid]})$

According to the given conditions, the equation will become as follow

$pH=pK_{a} + log(\frac{[Na_{2}HPO_{4} ]}{[NaH_{2}PO_{4}]})$

The base and acid are assigned by observing the pKa values of both the compounds; smaller value means more acidic. NaH₂PO₄ has a pKa value of 6.86, while Na₂HPO₄ has a pKa value of 12.32 (not given, but it's a constant). Another more easy way is to the count the acidic hydrogen in the molecular formula; the compound with more acidic hydrogens will be assigned acidic and vice versa.

Placing all the given data we obtain,

$pH=6.86 + log(\frac{0.058}{0.042})$

$pH=7.00$

The mass of the erlenmeyer flask alone is 88.000 grams. calculate the mass of the zinc and hcl after the addition of 25 grams of

arsen [322]

If concentration of HCl is 1 mol/dm³ :
m(<span>erlenmeyer flask) = 88,00 g.
m(Zn) = 25,0 g.
V(HCl) = 15 ml = 15 cm</span>³ = 0,015 dm³.
Chemical reaction: Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂.
n(HCl) = c(HCl) · V(HCl).
n(HCl) = 1 mol/dm³ · 0,015 dm³ = 0,015 dm³.
n(Zn) = 25 g ÷ 65,4 g/mol = 0,38 mol.
n(H₂) = 0,015 mol ÷ 2 = 0,0075 mol.
m(H₂) = 0,0075 mol · 2g/mol = 0,015 g.
