Why are conductors better than insulators to carry electric current

Chemistry
1 answer:
marysya [2.9K]2 years ago
5 0

Conductors are better than insulators to carry electric current because they give the electricity the ability to flow freely throughout circuits. This helps the insulator to do its job of containing the electric charge. Examples of this would be a tv plug - the rubber surrounding the TV plug helps to keep the conductors (wires) in place, thus helping to facilitate an electric charge.

When chlorine is added to acetylene, 1, 1, 2, 2-tetrachloroethane is formed: 2cl2 (g) + c2h2 (g) → c2h4cl4 (l) how many liters o
Otrada [13]
Answer:
             20 L of Cl₂

Solution:

The reaction is as follow,

                                   H₂C₂  +  2 Cl₂     →      H₂C₂Cl₄

According to equation,

       167.84 g (1 mole) H₂C₂Cl₄ is produced by  =  44.8 L (2 mole) of Cl₂
So,
                 75 g of H₂C₂Cl₄ will be produced by  =  X L of Cl₂

Solving for X,
                      X  =  (44.8 L × 75 g) ÷ 167.84 g

                      X  =  20 L of Cl₂

How many grams of NaF should be added to 500 mL of a 0.100 M solution of HF to make a buffer with a pH of 3.2
Korolek [52]

Answer:

2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2

Explanation:

The mixture of a weak acid (HF) with its conjugate base (NaF), produce a buffer. To find the pH of a buffer we must use H-H equation:

pH = pKa + log [A-] / [HA]

<em>Where pH is the pH of the buffer that you want = 3.2, pKa is the pKa of HF = 3.17, and [] could be taken as the moles of A-, the conjugate base (NaF) and the weak acid, HA, (HF). </em>

The moles of HF are:

500mL = 0.500L * (0.100mol/L) = 0.0500 moles HF

Replacing:

3.2 = 3.17 + log [A-] / [0.0500moles]

0.03 = log [A-] / [0.0500moles]

1.017152 = [A-] / [0.0500moles]

[A-] = 0.0500mol * 1.017152

[A-] = 0.0536 moles NaF

The mass could be obtained using the molar mass of NaF (41.99g/mol):

0.0536 moles NaF * (41.99g/mol) =

<h3>2.25g of NaF are needed to prepare the buffer of pH = 3.2</h3>

Put the steps in process of photosythensis order
arlik [135]

Answer:

Step 1- CO2 and H2O enter the leaf.

Step 2-  Light hits the pigment in the membrane of a thylakoid, splitting the H2O into O2.

Step 3- The electrons move down to enzymes.

Step 4-Sunlight hits the second pigment molecule allowing the enzymes to convert ADP to ATP and NADP+ gets converted to NADPH

Step 5-The ATP and NADPH is used by the calvin cycle as a power source for converting carbon dioxide from the atmosphere into simple sugar glucose.

Step 6-The calvin cycle converts 3CO2 molecules from the atmosphere to glucose

Step 7-calvin cycle. The second of two major stages in photosynthesis (following the light reactions), involving atmospheric CO2 fixation and reduction of the fixed carbon into carbohydrate.

Hope this helps : D
