Purpose of tanning in the leather industry is to

Chemistry
1 answer:
larisa [96]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

d) Make it flexible  

Step-by-step explanation:

Raw hides dry out to form a hard material that can decay with an offensive smell when they become wet.

Tanning converts the protein of the raw hide into a stable material that will stay flexible and not decompose when it gets wet.

a) is <em>wrong</em>. The purpose of tanning is to soften the leather.

b) is <em>wrong</em>. You smooth the leather manually with fine sandpaper.

c) is <em>wrong</em>. Tanning does not impart water resistance. It prevents the leather from putrefying when it does get wet.

A material has a volume of 63.0 cm3 and a mass of 28 grams.  What is the density of the material in g/cm3 to the correct number
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).

Explanation:

  • Knowing that:

<em>d = m/V,</em>

where, d is the density of the material (g/cm³).

m is the mass of the material (m = 28 g).

V is the volume of the material (V = 63.0 cm³).

<em>∴ d = m/V </em>= (28 g)/(63.0 cm³) = <em>0.4444 g/cm³ ≅ 0.44 g/cm³ (2 significant figures).</em>

A mixture of hydrogen (2.02 g) and chlorine (35.90 g) in a container at 300 K has a total gas pressure of 748 mm Hg. What is the
Llana [10]

The partial atmospheric pressure (atm) of hydrogen in the mixture is 0.59 atm.

<h3>How do we calculate the partial pressure of gas?</h3>

Partial pressure of particular gas will be calculated as:

p = nP, where

  • P = total pressure = 748 mmHg
  • n is the mole fraction which can be calculated as:
  • n = moles of gas / total moles of gas

Moles will be calculated as:

  • n = W/M, where
  • W = given mass
  • M = molar mass

Moles of Hydrogen gas = 2.02g / 2.014g/mol = 1 mole

Moles of Chlorine gas = 35.90g / 70.9g/mol = 0.5 mole

Mole fraction of hydrogen = 1 / (1+0.5) = 0.6

Partial pressure of hydrogen = (0.6)(748) = 448.8 mmHg = 0.59 atm

Hence, required partial atmospheric pressure of hydrogen is 0.59 atm.

A chemical reaction in which bonds are created is usually associated with ________.
Nikolay [14]

A  reaction in which bonds are created is usually associated with the Release of energy.

What are the various types of bonds?

There are three sorts of bonds:

1. Electrovalent or  electrovalent bond

2.  chemical bond

3.  dative bond

Electrovalent or electrovalent bond are formed when one or more electrons are transferred from one atom to another.

Covalent bonds are formed when the atoms during a  molecule share an equal number of electrons.

A dative bond is one in which both electrons in a shared pair come from the same atom.

Now, atoms tend to stabilize once they form chemical bonds, releasing energy within the process. Energy is released because there's a higher level of stability associated with a low energy level.

Hence, a  reaction in which bonds are created is usually associated with the release of energy.
