Why are gold rings not made from 100% gold?

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.

Soloha48 [4]

A reaction in which heat is evolved is an exothermic reaction while a reaction in which heat is absorbed is an endothermic reaction.

In the first case; Na2CO3 + H2SO4, we can see that this is an acid - base reaction therefore it is a neutralization reaction. Since the tube was hot after reaction, heat is given off so it is exothermic.

In the second case; NaOH + H2SO4, we can see that this is an acid - base reaction therefore it is a neutralization reaction. We are told that the tube is not hot but we don't know the initial temperature of the tube or if it was colder than it's initial temperature so we can not make any inference regarding whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic.

Lastly, the reaction, NaCl + HC2H5OH does not occur so we mark "no reaction". We are told that the tube is not hot but we don't know the initial temperature of the tube or if it was colder than it's initial temperature so we can not make any inference regarding whether the reaction is endothermic or exothermic.

The limiting reactant in a reaction a. is the reactant for which there is the least amount in grams b. is the reactant which has
Shalnov [3]

Actually the correct answer must be:

The limiting reactant in the reaction is the one which has the lowest ratio of moles available over coefficient in the balanced equation

 

This is because the actual mass or number of moles of the reactant does not directly dictate if it is a limiting reactant, this must be relative to the other reactants.

 

So the answer is:

e. none of the above

What is the mass of 6.12 moles of arsenic (As)?
Leokris [45]

Mole = Mass / Molar mass

6.12 moles = Mass / 74.92 g/mol

Mass = 6.12 moles x 74.92 g/mol

Mass = 458.51g

Calcium forms ions with a charge of +2. Iodine forms ions with a charge of -1. Which of the following would represent an ionic c
Stolb23 [73]
Well you know that you have to balance out the equation to 0. So if I is -1 and Ca is +2 you know that I had to equal to -2. So you can do that by having two of them. So Ca=+2 and I2=-2 so CaI2 would equal 0 meaning that would be the correct answer. Hope that I explained that correct :)
