Bauxite is the chief ore from which aluminum is extracted. Which of these statements is correct about bauxite?
Eddi Din [679]

Answer : The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Ores are defined as natural occurring substance from which metals and another mineral are extracted.

Bauxite is primary ore of an aluminium metal. it doesn't have definite or specific chemical composition. This is because it contains mixture of hydrous aluminum oxideAl_2O_3, aluminum hydroxidesAl(OH)_3, insoluble materials like hematite, quartz ,geothite ,magnetite etc.

From the given options the most appropriate statement which is correct about the bauxite is 'It does not have a definite chemical composition'.

Hence, the correct option Is (D).

why do solids keep their shape and volume why do liquids keep only volume and why do gases not keep either shape or volume
kodGreya [7K]
Solids always have definite shape and definite volume because their particles are packed together. Liquids have a definite volume but not definite shape, because their particles still kinda tight but able to move around, and gases don’t have a definite shape nor volume, because their particles are crazy and go everywhere

What is the ratio of the magenta phenolphthalein concentration to the colorless phenolphthalein concentration ([magenta phenolph
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62

Explanation:

Considering the Henderson- Hasselbalch equation for the calculation of the pH of the buffer solution as:

pH=pKa+\log\frac{[base]}{[acid]}

Where Ka is the dissociation constant of the acid.

pKa of phenolphthalein = 9.40

pH = 10.9

So,

10.9=9.40+\log\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}

\frac{[magenta\ phenolphthalein]}{[colorless\ phenolphthalein]}=31.62

What happens to energy from the sun that is neither reflected nor absorbed by the atmosphere
Valentin [98]

Energy from the sun that is neither reflected nor absorbed by the atmosphere passes through the atmosphere to the surface. The ozone layer absorbes most of the ultraviolet radiation, water vapor, and carbon dioxide absorbs infared radiation, clouds, dust, and other gases also absorb energy.

4. DBearded waste of Co-60 must be stored until it is no longer radioactive. Cobalt-60
Bingel [31]

464 g radioisotope was present when the sample was put in storage

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Sample waste of Co-60 = 14.5 g

26.5 years in storage

Required

Initial sample

Solution

General formulas used in decay:  

\large{\boxed{\bold{N_t=N_0(\dfrac{1}{2})^{t/t\frac{1}{2} }}}

t = duration of decay  

t 1/2 = half-life  

N₀ = the number of initial radioactive atoms  

Nt = the number of radioactive atoms left after decaying during T time  

Half-life of Co-60 = 5.3 years

Input the value :

\tt 14.5=No.\dfrac{1}{2}^{26.5/5.3}\\\\14.5=No.\dfrac{1}{2}^5\\\\No=\boxed{\bold{464~g}}
