The concentration of the solution has increased
Reil [10]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: The correct answer is A.

Explanation: Concentration is defined as the moles of solute present in 1 liter of solution.

Mathematically,

Concentration=\frac{\text{moles of solute}}{\text{1 L of solution}}

Here, James has placed a solution of salt in water on a hot plate. By placing the solution on a hot plate, evaporation of water is occurring which results in the decreases of the volume of the solution. As this happens, the denominator of the fraction decreases, which results in the increase of concentration.

Hence, the correct option is A.

Because they insulate either the heat or the coolness within the food item. But keep in mind- when it comes to electricity aluminum isn’t an insulator.

Calculate the pH during the titration of 30.00 mL of 0.1000 M HCOOH(aq) with 0.1000 M NaOH(aq) after 29.3 mL of the base have be
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

3.336.

Explanation:

<em>Herein, the no. of millimoles of the acid (HCOOH) is more than that of the base (NaOH).</em>

<em />

So, <em>concentration of excess acid = [(NV)acid - (NV)base]/V total</em> = [(30.0 mL)(0.1 M) - (29.3 mL)(0.1 M)]/(59.3 mL) = <em>1.18 x 10⁻³ M.</em>

<em></em>

<em> For weak acids; [H⁺] = √Ka.C</em> = √(1.8 x 10⁻⁴)(1.18 x 10⁻³ M) = <em>4.61 x 10⁻⁴ M.</em>

∵ pH = - log[H⁺].

<em>∴ pH = - log(4.61 x 10⁻⁴) = 3.336.</em>

Using wolfram alpha or some other reference, determine which of these elements would be liquid at 525 k (assume samples are prot
romanna [79]
The choices for this problem are bismuth, Bi; platinum, Pt; selenium, Se; calcium, Ca and copper, Cu. I think the correct answer would be selenium. The melting point of bismuth is at a temperature of 544.4 Kelvin. At a temperature of 525 K, it would exist as solid. Platinum melts at 2041.1 K. At 525 K, platinum would be in solid form. Selenium has a melting point at 494 K so that at a temperature of 525 K, it would exist in its liquid state. Calcium has a melting point of 1112 K so it would exist as solid at 525 K. Copper has a melting point at 1358 K, so it would still exist as solid at a temperature of 525 K. Therefore, the answer would only be selenium.

An inflatable toy starts with 1.05 moles of air and a volume of 5.17 liters. When fully inflated, the volume is 8.00 liters. If
padilas [110]

Answer:-  1.62 moles

Solution:- At constant temperature and pressure, volume is directly proportional to the moles of the gas.

\frac{V_1}{V_2}=\frac{n_1}{n_2}

from given data, V_1 = 5.17 L, n_1 = 1.05 moles

V_2 = 8.00 L, n_2 = ?

Let's plug in the values in the formula:

\frac{5.17L}{8.00L}=\frac{1.05moles}{n_2}

On cross multiply:

n_2=\frac{8.00L(1.05moles)}{5.17L}

n_2 = 1.62 moles

So, now the toy contains 1.62 moles of the air.
