What Are Living Rocks? Rocks themselves are not alive. But in a coral reef rock-like lime substance is continually produced from the skeletons of dead rock corals and the shells of mussels and other creatures which are bound together by sponges and calcareous algae.

but tbh I have no idea lol!

Rocks aren’t alive because there almost like fossils and rocks are also part sand , they break down and spread but that doesn’t mean there alive

Suppose 20.23 g of glucose are dissolved in 95.75 g of water at 27.0 OC. Glucose is nonvolatile (has no vapor pressure) and has
leonid [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

From the information given :

we can understand the solute is glucose and the solvent is water,

So, the weight of glucose = 20.23 g

the molecular weight of glucose = 180.2 g/mol

weight of water = 95. 75 g

the molecular weight of water = 18.02 g/mol

pure vapor pressure of water P_A = 26.7 \ mmHg at 27°C

moles of glucose = weight of glucose/ molecular weight of glucose

= 20.23/180.2

= 0.11 mole

moles of water =  weight of water / molecular weight of water

= 95.75/18.02

= 5.31 mole

mole fraction of glucose X_{glucose} = (moles of glucose)/(moles of glucose+ moles of water)

X_{glucose} = 0.11/(0.11 + 5.31)

X_{glucose} =  0.0203

mole fraction of glucose X_{water} = (moles of water)/(moles of water+ moles of glucose)

X_{water} = 5.31/ (5.31 + 0.11)

X_{water} =  0.9797

Using Raoult's Law:

P_S = P^0_A \times X_A \  \ \  OR  \  \ \  P_A = P^0_A \times X_A

where:

P_S = vapor pressure of the solution

P_A = total vapor pressure of the solution

P^0_A= vapor pressure of the solvent in the pure state

X_A = mole fraction of solvent i.e. water

P_A = 95.75 ×  0.9797

P_A =  93.81 mmHg

the total vapor pressure of the solution = 93.81 mmHg

A mixture of MgBr2 and inert material is analyzed to determine the Mg content. First the mixture is dissolved in water. Then all
Mumz [18]

Answer:

9.24% the percent of Mg in the mixture.

Explanation:

Mass of silver bromide = 1.1739 g

Moles of silver bromide = \frac{1.1739 g}{188 g/mol}=0.006244 mol

1 mole of AgBr has 1 mole of bromine atom.Then 0.006244 moles AgBr has 0.006244 mole bromine atom.

Moles of bromine atoms = 0.006244 moles

Magnesium bromide has 2 moles of bromine atom.Then 0.006244 moles of bromine atoms will be in :

\frac{0.006244 mol}{2}=0.003122 mol

Magnesium bromide has 1 mole magnesium atom, then 0.003122 moles of magnesium bromide will have :

1\times 0.003122 mol=0.003122 mol magnesium atom

Mass of 0.003122 moles of magnesium :

0.003122 mol × 24 g/mol = 0.07493 g

Mass of the sample = 0.8107 g

Percentage of magnesium in the sample ;

=\frac{0.07493 g}{0.8107 g}\times 100=9.24\%

9.24% the percent of Mg in the mixture.
