Would aluminum be as useful as food wrapping if it had a much lower melting point? Explain your answer.
Salsk061 [2.6K]

The correct answers are as follows:

1. Aluminium will not be useful as food wrapping if it has a much lower melting point.

Aluminum is a metallic element that is malleable and soft, thus, it is easy to beat it into thin sheet, which are used to package food. The thin sheet is called aluminium foil. Aluminum is useful as a food wrapping because it has high temperature and thus, it does not react with food (the hotness of the packaged food is not capable of melting the metal). If the melting point of aluminium is lower, this implies that little temperature, such as the one from hot food will be able to melt aluminum foil, thus allowing the food to be contaminated with the metal.

2. When bleach react with fabric dye chemical change occur in the fabric.

The major element in bleach is chlorine. When laundry bleach is added to a fabric, the chlorine component of the bleach will react with the fabric dye and cause a colour change in the fabric. This type of change is called chemical change, because the original colour of the fabric can not be recovered.

3. Every substance has specific properties, which can be used to identify it. Two of such specific properties are melting point and boiling point. Melting point refers to a specific temperature at which a solid substance will melt while boiling point refers to a specific temperature at which a liquid substance will boil and turn to steam.

Water for instance has a boiling point of 100 degree Celsius. To find out if an unknown substance is water, one can determine the boiling point of such liquid. A boiling point of 100 degree Celsius will strongly signify that the substance is probably water. The same thing applies to melting point. If the specific boiling and melting point of substances are known, then they can be used to identify them.

Consider this equilibrium reaction between carbon monoxide and hydrogen gas, occurring in a sealed flexible container. CO(g) + 3
wariber [46]

Answer:

More H2(g) is added to the container : <u>Towards products.</u>

CO is removed from the container : <u>Towards reactants.</u>

More CH4(g) is added to the container : <u>Towards reactants</u>

H2O(g) is removed from the container <u>: Towards products.</u>

The contents of the container are heated up. :<u> Towards the reactants.</u>

The contents of the container are cooled down : <u>Towards the products.</u>

The pressure inside the container is increased. :<u>Towards the products</u>

The container is stretched to increase the volume: <u>Towards the reactants.</u>

Explanation: :

CO(g) + 3 H2g) → CH4(g) + H2O(g)+ heat

There is released heat, so this reaction is exothermic

If the H2 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase.<u> Towards products.</u>

If the CO is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. <u>Towards reactants.</u>

If the CH4 concentration is increased, the system will try to change the concentration change by shifting the balance to the left, and thus the concentration of reactants will increase. <u>Towards reactants</u>

If the H2O is removed, the system will try to change this situation by shifting the balance to the right, and thus the concentration of products will increase, the concentration of products will decrease. <u>Towards products.</u>

If the temperature is increased, the system will reduce the amount of heat released. So the balance will shift to the left. <u>Towards the reactants.</u>

This because the extra heat / energy must be used.

If the temperature is decreased, the system will produce more heat  So the balance will shift to the right. <u>Towards the products.</u>

This because more heat /energy needs to be produced to make up for the loss of heat (energy).

If the pressure is increased, the system will shift to the side with fewer moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right.  So the balance will shift to the right. <u>Towards the products.</u> An increase of pressure has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the volume.

If the volume is increased, this means the pressure is decreased, the system will shift to the side with most moles of gas. In this case, there are 4 moles on the left and 2 moles on the right.  So the balance will shift to the left. <u>Towards the reactants.</u> An increase of volume has the same effect on the equilibrium as a decrease of the pressure.

Using the following equation: 3H2SO4+ 2Fe -&gt; Fe2(SO4)3+ 3H2
Mariana [72]

Answer:

H₂SO₄

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of H₂SO₄ = 15 mol

Number of moles of Fe = 13 mol

Which reactant is limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3H₂SO₄  + 2Fe      →          Fe₂(SO₄)₃  + 3H₂

now we will compare the moles reactant with product.

               H₂SO₄         :          Fe₂(SO₄)₃  

                  3               :              1

                 15               :              1/3×15 = 5

                H₂SO₄         :            H₂

                  3               :              3

                 15               :              15

                Fe               :          Fe₂(SO₄)₃  

                  2               :              1

                 13               :              1/2×13 = 6.5

                Fe               :                H₂

                  2               :                 3

                 13               :              3/2×13 = 19.5

Number of moles of product formed by  H₂SO₄ are less thus it will act as limiting reactant.

2. Which pair of elements does not form an ionic bond?
Gekata [30.6K]

\mathfrak{\huge{\orange{\underline{\underline{AnSwEr:-}}}}}

Actually Welcome to the concept of Bond Formation.

Answer is :-

B.) O and Cl

These both are Non-Metals with high Electronegativity nature, hence none of them can share electrons to foram any bond to eventually form a Electro valentines Compound.
