State the difference between sugar in water and pebbles in water

1 answer:

6 0

Sugar is made of molecules that are bonded together based on the positively and negatively charged areas. They will slowly dissolve in water. Pebbles are solids. They will sit in water for a long time. Though shale pebbles will break apart or fall apart.

Determine the formula weights of each of the following compounds.Part A) Nitrous oxide, N2O, known as laughing gas and used as a

densk [106]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) Nitrous oxide (N2O) has a molar mass of 44.014 amu. It has 2 nitrogen atoms each with a mass of 14.007 amu and 1 oxygen atom with a mass of 16.0 amu.

Percentage nitrogen = (2*14.007 amu/ 44.014 amu ) *100% = 63.6%

Percentage oxygen = (16 amu/44.014 amu) * 100% = 36.4 %

63.6% + 36.4% = 100%

b) Benzoic acid (C7H6O2) has a molar mass of 122.13 amu. It has 6 hydrogen atoms each with a mass of 1.01 amu; it has 7 carbon atoms each with a mass of 12.01amu and 2 oxygen atoms with a mass of 16.0 amu.

Percentage hydrogen = (6*1.01 amu / 122.13 amu)*100% = 4.96%

Percentage carbon = (7*12.01 amu/ 122.13 amu)*100% = 68.8%

Percentage oxygen = (2*16 amu/ 122.13 amu) *100% = 26.2%

c) Magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) has a molecular mass of 58.32 amu. It has 2 hydrogen atoms each with a mass of 1.01 amu; it has 1 magnesium atom with a mass of 24.3 amu and two oxygen atoms with a mass of 16.0 amu.

Percentage hydrogen = (2*1.01 amu/ 58.32 amu) *100% = 3.46 %

Percentage magnesium = (24.3 amu/58.32 amu)*100% = 41.7%

Percentage oxygen = (2*16 amu/58.32 amu)*100% = 54.9%

d) Urea CO(NH2)2 has a molecular mass of 60.064 amu. It has 2 Nitrogen atoms each with a mass of 14.007 amu, 4 hydrogen atoms each with a mass of 1.01 amu,1 carbon atom with a mass of 12.01 amu and 1 oxygen atom with a mass of 16.0 amu.

Percentage nitrogen = (2*14.007 amu/ 60.064amu)*100% = 46.6%

Percentage hydrogen = (4*1.01 amu/60.064amu)*100% = 6.72%

Percentage carbon = (12.01 amu/60.064amu)*100% = 20.0%

Percentage oxygen = (16 amu/60.064amu)*100% = 26.6%

e) Osopentyl acetate (C7H14O2) has a molecular mass of 130.2 amu. It has 14 hydrogen atoms each with a mass of 1.01 amu,7 carbon atoms each with a mass of 12.01 amu and 2 oxygen atom with a mass of 16.0 amu.

Percentage hydrogen = (14*1.01 amu/130.2 amu)*100% = 10.8%

Percentage carbon = (7*12.01 amu/130.2 amu)*100% = 64.6%

Percentage oxygen =(2*16 amu/130.2 amu)*100% = 24.6%

It is possible to have more than the maximum amount of solute dissolved in a solvent.

vladimir1956 [14]

B. False

When the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved in a given amount of solvent, we say that the solution is saturated with solute.

Which electromagnetic radiation on the electromagnetic spectrum can be detected by the human eye?

qaws [65]

Answer:

D. Visible Light

Explanation:

D is the right answer because visible light is perceived by humans as color and the rest aren't visible at all. For example, if you broke a bone and have to have an X-ray done, you can't see the x-rays. When you are heating something in the microwave, you can't see the waves. And when you are listening to the radio in the car, you also can't see the waves.

How might it benefit forensic scientists to smaller subcategories for fingerprints?

Inga [223]

Answer: Once the fingerprints are captured and described, judicial physicists use a categorization structure to label the ruling class. The three elementary mark on finger patterns is Whorl, Arch, and Loop. There are more intricate categorization methods that further decay the pattern to plain arches or make camp arches. Loops grant permission be branching or ulnar.
