Brass is made from a combination of copper and zinc. The relative amounts of each element are varied by metalworkers to produce

the desired properties. Is brass a compound or a mixture?
Chemistry

Answer:

Mixture

Explanation:

Brass is an alloy. An alloy is a combination of two or more metals that gives rise to another metal to give a more desirable end product metal.

The metals combined are only physically combined. They still retain their individual properties. Although the compositions are varied, it is only varied to produce desired properties and not to alter any chemical combination as in the case of compounds.

It is important to note that there are no chemical combinations between these metals.

For the vaporization of a liquid at a given pressure: A.ΔG is positive at all temperatures. B.ΔG is negative at all temperatures
MArishka [77]

Answer:

C. ΔG is positive at low temperatures, but negative at high temperatures (and zero at some temperature).

Explanation:

Since we need to give energy in the form of heat to vaporize a liquid, the enthalpy is positive. In a gas, molecules are more separated than in a liquid, therefore the entropy is positive as well.

Considering the Gibbs free energy equation:

ΔG= ΔH - TΔS

          +        +

When both the enthalpy and entropy are positive, the reaction proceeds spontaneously (ΔG is negative) at high temperatures. At low temperatures, the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction (ΔG is positive).

In a lab experiment 80.0 g of ammonia [NH3] and 120 g of oxygen are placed in a reaction vessel. At the end of the reaction 72.2
valentinak56 [21]

The percent yield of the reaction : 89.14%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction of Ammonia and Oxygen in a lab :

<em>4 NH₃ (g) + 5 O₂ (g) ⇒ 4 NO(g)+ 6 H₂O(g)</em>

mass NH₃ = 80 g

mol NH₃ (MW=17 g/mol):

\dfrac{80}{17}=4.706

mass O₂ = 120 g

mol O₂(MW=32 g/mol) :

\tt \dfrac{120}{32}=3.75

Mol ratio of reactants(to find limiting reatants) :

\tt \dfrac{4.706}{4}\div \dfrac{3.75}{5}=1.1765\div 0.75\rightarrow O_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)

mol of H₂O based on O₂ as limiting reactants :

mol H₂O :

\tt \dfrac{6}{5}\times 3.75=4.5

mass H₂O :

4.5 x 18 g/mol = 81 g

The percent yield :

\tt \%yield=\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\\%yield=\dfrac{72.2}{81}\times 100\%=89.14\%

What is the formula of a compound in which element y form ccp lattice and atom x occupy 1/3rd of tetrahedral voids
Kisachek [45]
Y : CCP : 4 atoms
X : tetrahedral voids would be 1/3 × 8 = 8/3

so formula would be Y12X8 or Y3X2 !!
