Pressure raises the boiling point

Andrew [12]3 years ago

3 0

Answer:

b. pressure

Explanation:

The boiling point of a substance increases as the pressure increases. The boiling points of a liquid is the temperature at which the liquid converts to vapor. At this point the vapor pressure of the liquid is equal to the pressure surrounding the liquid.

Heating increases the temperature of liquid, thereby increasing the pressure . As pressure increases the energy required to boil also increases, causing an increase in the boiling points.

If the water is hot then the food coloring will spread faster,because?

enot [183]

Answer:

Warm water has more energy than cold water. The more energy the more the water molecules move around pushing the food coloring. Think gas—liquid is evaporated because of heat and the molecules move more than in a liquid state.

Identify the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent for the following reaction: Zn(s)+Cu2+(aq)→Zn2+(aq)+Cu(s) Express your answe

Ainat [17]

Answer: oxidizing agent: $Cu^{2+}$ , reducing agent : $Zn$

Explanation: Oxidation-reduction reaction or redox reaction is defined as the reaction in which oxidation and reduction reactions occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases.

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced.

For the given reaction:

$Zn(s)+Cu^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Zn^{2+}(aq)+Cu(s)$

On reactant side:

Oxidation state of zinc = 0

Oxidation state of copper = +2

On product side:

Oxidation state of zinc = +2

Oxidation state of copper = 0

The oxidation state of copper reduces from +2 to 0, it is getting reduced. The substance which itself gets reduced, oxidizes other and is called as oxidizing agent.Thus $Cu^{2+}$ acts as oxidizing agent.

The oxidation state of zinc increases from 0 to +2. Thus, it is getting oxidized and it undergoes oxidation reaction. The substance which itself gets oxidized, reduces other and is called as reducing agent.Thus $Zn$ acts as reducing agent.

Which atom has the weakest attraction for electrons in a chemical bond?(1) a boron atom (3) a fluorine atom(2) a calcium atom (4

BARSIC [14]

The (2) calcium atom, because when looking at the periodic table, we see that the calcium atom is in a location where according to the periodic table, has the lower electronegativities in respect to the other three choices. We see that it also has a lower electronegativity value than the others. Electronegativity is the attraction constant for the electrons in a chemical bond. The higher the electronegativity, the higher the attraction of the electrons. Fluorine has the highest electronegativity with 4.0.
