Chemistry
2 answers:
KiRa [710]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The correct answer is <u><em>E) a material consisting of only one type of atom .</em></u>

Explanation:

A chemical element is called a substance that is formed by atoms of the same type whose nuclei have the same number of protons, called atomic number.

It is considered a chemical element to the simplest form of a substance, therefore it is that substance that cannot be decomposed by a chemical reaction into simpler ones.

The elements combine to form compounds. The chemical behavior of the elements is related to the structure of the nucleus and the configuration of its electrons.

The chemical elements and their characteristics are summarized in what is called a periodic table of the elements, where the elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number.

Finally, <u><em>the correct answer is E) a material consisting of only one type of atom .</em></u>

It is recommended that drinking water contain 1.6 ppm fluo- ride (F) to prevent tooth decay. Consider a cylindrical reservoir wi
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

32,127.02 grams of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate will contain this 25,434  grams of F.

Explanation:

Volume of cylindrical reservoir = V

Radius of the cylindrical reservoir = r = d/2

d = diameter of the cylindrical reservoir = d =4.50\times 10^1 m=45 m

r = d/2 = 22.5 m

Depth of the reservoir = h =  10.0 m

V=\pi r^2 h

=3.14\times (22.5 m)^2\times 10.0 m=15,896.25 m^3=15,896,250 L

1 m^3=1000 l

Volume of water cylindrical reservoir : V

Density of water,d = 1 kg/L

Mass of water cylindrical reservoir =  m

m=d\times V=1 kg/L\times 15,896,250 L=15,896,250 kg

1.6 kilogram of fluorine per million kilograms of water. (Given)

Concentration of fluorine in water = 1.6 kg/ 1000,000 kg of water

In 1000,000 kg of water = 1.6 kg of fluorine

Then 15,896,250 kg of water have x mass of fluorine:

\frac{x}{15,896,250 kg\text{kg of water}}=\frac{1.6 kg}{1000,000 \text{kg of water}}

x=\frac{1.6 kg}{1000,000}\times 15,896,250 kg=25.434 kg

15,896,250 kg water of contains mass 25.434 kg of fluorine.

25.434 kg = 25434 g

25,434  grams of fluorine  should be added to give 1.6 ppm.

Percentage of fluorine in hydrogen hexafluorosilicate :

Molar mass hydrogen hexafluorosilicate = 144 g/mol

F\%=\frac{6\times 19 g/mol}{144 g/mol}\times 100=79.16\%

Total mass of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate = m'

79.16\%=\frac{25,434 g}{m'}\times 100

m' = 32,127.02 g

32,127.02 grams of hydrogen hexafluorosilicate will contain this 25,434  grams of F.

What is the percentage of sodium presents in sodium hydrogen carbonate NaHCO3
STatiana [176]

Answer:-

27.38%

Explanation:-

Molecular weight of sodium hydrogen carbonate NaHCO3

= 23 x 1 + 1 x 1 + 12 x 1 + 16 x 3

= 84 gram

Total sodium Na present in NaHCO3 = 23 x 1 = 23 gram

Percentage of sodium present=

Total sodium x 100/ (Total molecular weight)

= 23 x 100 / 84

= 27.38 %

A 100.0mL bubble of hot gases at 225 C and 1.80 atm escapes from an active volcano, what is the new volume of the bubble outside
Inessa05 [86]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

112.08 mL

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

From the question we are given;

  • Initial volume, V1 = 100.0 mL
  • Initial temperature, T1 = 225°C, but K = °C + 273.15

thus, T1 = 498.15 K

  • Initial pressure, P1 = 1.80 atm
  • Final temperature , T2 = -25°C

                                     = 248.15 K

  • Final pressure, P2 = 0.80 atm

We are required to calculate the new volume of the gases;

  • According to the combined gas law equation;

\frac{P1V1}{T1}=\frac{P2V2}{T2}

Rearranging the formula;

V2=\frac{P1V1T2}{T1P2}

Therefore;

V2=\frac{(1.80atm)(100mL)(248.15K)}{(498.15K)(0.80atm)}

V2=112.08mL

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 112.08 mL

Crazy boy [7]
So use equation: ΔH = MCΔT

M 
= mass of water
C 
= waters specific heat capacity (4.18)
ΔT = the temp. change of the reaction

ΔH = 100 x 4.18 x 10 = 4180J or 41.8KJ

so the cube absorbed 4180J of energy 

hope that helps
