Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

We must first put down the reaction equation as this will serve as a guide in solving the question.

M(s) + S(s) -----> MS(s)

According to the reaction equation; 1 mole of metal reacts with 1 mole of sulphur. Hence 0.09 moles of sulphur reacts with 0.09 moles of metal.

Now recall that;

Number of moles (n) = mass(m)/ molar mass(M)

Since

mass of metal reacted= 3.6g

Number of moles of metal= 0.09 moles

Then;

Making molar mass of metal the subject of the formula;

Molar mass of metal = mass of metal / number of moles of metal

Molar mass of metal = 3.6g /0.09 moles

Molar mass of metal= 40 gmol-1

The metal having a molar mass of 40gmol-1 is calcium, therefore the metal is calcium.

Calculate the hydroxide ion concentration [OH-] for a solution with a pH of 6.10
nalin [4]

There are different formula you need to keep in mind when solving for [OH-]

Given that pH = 6.10

pH + pOH = 14

6.10 + pOH = 14

pOH = 7.9

[OH-] = 10^(-pOH)

[OH-] = 10^(-7.9)

[OH-] = 0.000000013

[OH-] = 1.3 x 10^-8


<h2><u>Answer: [OH-] = 1.3 x 10^-8</u></h2>

.) Neon and HF have approximately the same molecular masses. a.)Explain why the boiling points of Neon and HF differ b.)Compare
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.

b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.

Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly)  due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.

Which chemical agent will you use to modify the frog heart rate?
Leto [7]
There are different chemical agents which are used to study the heart rate of frog. Generally Ringer's solution is used to study frog's heart simulation. At different temperature, frogs heart speeds up or slows down while using Ringer's solution at experiment. Ringer's solution is mixture of salt solution which comprises of NaCl, KCl, CaCl2 and Na2CO3. Sometimes other chemicals like MgCl or antibiotics are also used as addition in Ringer's solution. 
This solution is chiefly used to study in vitro experiments on organs and tissues like frog's heart.

Ringer's solution at 23 degree Celsius for normal heart rate
Ringer's solution at 32 degree Celsius, heart rate speed up and 
Ringer's solution at  5 degree Celsius, heart rate slows down.

other chemicals also have significant effect in heart rate,
For example, Calcium ion in excess will slow down the heart rate, Atropine increases heart rate and digitalis slows down the heart rate.
