Gold is actually very soft. If rings were made of pure gold they would bend and become disfigured. Other elements are added to give the ring its stability.

100% gold is too soft, and isn't nearly as durable as it needs to be.

You have dissolved 10 g sodium oxide in 200 ml water.calculate concentration of the solution
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

0.85 Molar Na2O

Explanation:

Determine the moles of sodium oxide, Na2O, in 10 grams by dividing by the molar mass of Na2O (61.98 g/mole).

 (10 g Na2O)/(61.98 g/mole) = 0.161 moles Na2O.

Molar is a measure of concentration.  It is defined as moles/liter.  A 1 M  solution contains 1 mole of solute per liter of solvent.  [200 ml water = 0.2 Liters water.]

In this case, we have 0.161 moles Na2O in 0.200 L of solvent.

 (0.161 moles Na2O)/(0.200 L) = 0.85 Molar Na2O

Can someone help? <br><br> Name the compound:
Serhud [2]

CH=benzene

Why?

benzene is represented by the empirical formula CH, which indicates that a typical sample of the compound contains one atom of carbon (C) to one atom of hydrogen (H).

When the Earth rotates, what happens to the constellations?
kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Constellations Changing Positions!!!!       :D  <----(smiley face)

Explanation:

Due to the earth's rotation, stars appear to move. As the Earth rotates from west to east, the stars appear to rise in the East, moving across south to set in the west. The Sun will appear to move through the stars, making one complete circuit of the sky in 365 days!!

C + 2H2 -&gt; CH4
ankoles [38]

Answer:

<u>C) 4</u>

Explanation:

<u>The reaction</u> :

  • C (s) + 2H₂ (g) ⇒ CH₄ (g)

       12g      4g             16g

Hence, based on this we can say that : <u>2 moles of hydrogen gas are needed to produce 16g of methane.</u>

<u />

<u>For 32g of methane</u>

  • Number of moles of H₂ = 32/16 × 2
  • Number of moles of H₂ = <u>4</u>

calculate the heat required in joules to convert 18.0 grams of water ice at a temperature of -20 c to liquid water at the normal
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Heat required to convert ice to ice at 0⁰C

= mass x specific heat x rise in temperature

= 18 x 2.09 x 20

= 752.4 J .

heat required to convert ice at 0⁰C to water at 0⁰C

mass x latent heat of fusion

= 18 x 336

= 6048 J

Heat required to increase the temperature of water to 100⁰C

= 18 x 4.2 x 100

= 7560 J

Total heat required

7560 + 6048 + 752.4

= 14360.4 J
