What is responsible for the whistling sound that often accompanies fireworks?

1 answer:

6 0

The crackling sound Is mainly to do with chemistry, The fireworks are filled with lead oxide, which turns into lead atoms as the firework explodes and heat up—— whistling sounds, the whistle is down to the tube being narrow one, thus rockets make a whistling noise

VLD [36.1K]

The volume of the new solution is

calculation

by use of the formula

M1V1= M2V2

M1 (molarity 1) = 2.13 M

V1 (volume 1) = 1.24 l

M2 ( molarity 2) = 1.60 M

V2 (volume 2) = ?

by making V2 the subject of the formula

V2 = M1 V1/ M2

V2=( 1.24 x 2.13)÷ 1.60= 1.651 L

What effect does light have on plant growth?

Varvara68 [4.7K]

Explanation:

Light intensity influences the manufacture of plant food, stem length, leaf color and flowering. Generally speaking, plants grown in low light tend to be spindly with light green leaves. A similar plant grown in very bright light tends to be shorter, better branches, and have larger, dark green leaves.

Hydrogen fluoride is used in the manufacture of Freons (which destroy ozone in the stratosphere) and in the production of alumin

Lerok [7]

<u>Answer:</u> The percentage yield of HF is 73.36 %

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ ....(1)

For calcium fluoride:

Given mass of calcium fluoride = 6.25 kg = 6250 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of calcium fluoride = 78.07 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Moles of calcium fluoride}=\frac{6250g}{78.07g/mol}=80.05mol$

For the given chemical reaction:

$CaF_2+H_2SO_4\rightarrow CaSO_4+2HF$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of calcium fluoride produces 2 moles of hydrofluoric acid

So, 80.05 moles of calcium fluoride will produce = $\frac{2}{1}\times 80.05=160.1mol$ of hydrofluoric acid

Now, calculating the theoretical yield of hydrofluoric acid using equation 1, we get:

Moles of of hydrofluoric acid = 160.1 moles

Molar mass of hydrofluoric acid = 20.01 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$160.1mol=\frac{\text{Theoretical yield of hydrofluoric acid}}{20.01g/mol}=3203.6g=3.20kg$

To calculate the percentage yield of hydrofluoric acid, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100$

Experimental yield of hydrofluoric acid = 2.35 kg

Theoretical yield of hydrofluoric acid = 3.20 kg

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ yield of hydrofluoric acid}=\frac{2.35g}{3.20g}\times 100\\\\\% \text{yield of hydrofluoric acid}=73.36\%$

Hence, the percentage yield of HF is 73.36 %
