Answer:

The increase in mass is not due to the heating but due to the reaction of the metal with oxygen in air to form an oxide

Explanation:

When a metal is heated in the presence of air, oxygen present in air reacts with the metal to form the oxide of the metal. The mass of this oxide is greater than the original metal by the amount of oxygen added to the metal during the reaction.

The above reaction is known as an oxidation reaction. Generally,

metal M + O2 ---> MO2

Heat in a substance is an example of ________ energy. A. phase B. kinetic C. potential D. evaporative
lisov135 [29]
The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above is option B. Heat in a substance is an example of a kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is a kind of energy that is in motion. We can feel the kinetic energy of heat through their temperatures because heat is being transferred.

Explain surface tension and capillary action
Andreas93 [3]

Adhesion of water to the surface of a material will cause an upward force on the liquid. The surface tension acts to hold the surface intact. Capillary action occurs when the adhesion to the surface material is stronger than the cohesive forces between the water molecules.

When 1000 C of charge is passed through CuSO4 solution, x g of copper is deposited. How much charge should be passed through the
Stels [109]

Number of charge = 5018 C

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

1000 C of charge for x grams of copper

Required

Number of charge

Solution

Faraday's Law :

\tt W=\dfrac{e.i.t}{96500}\\\\W=\dfrac{e.Q}{96500}

For 1000 C, W = x grams

\tt x=\dfrac{1000.e}{96500}=0.0104e

For 5x grams :

\tt 5x=\dfrac{e.Q}{96500}\\\\5\times 0.0104e=\dfrac{e.Q}{96500}\\\\Q=\dfrac{96500\times 5\times 0.0104e}{e}=5018~C

Do anyone know how to do question B
Over [174]

Answer:

a) IUPAC Names:

                   1) (<em>trans</em>)-but-2-ene

                   2) (<em>cis</em>)-but-2-ene

                   3) but-1-ene

b) Balance Equation:

                       C₄H₁₀O + H₃PO₄   →   C₄H₈ + H₂O + H₃PO₄

As H₃PO₄ is catalyst and remains unchanged so we can also write as,

                                    C₄H₁₀O   →   C₄H₈ + H₂O

c) Rule:

           When more than one alkene products are possible then the one thermodynamically stable is favored. Thermodynamically more substituted alkenes are stable. Furthermore, trans alkenes are more stable than cis alkenes. Hence, in our case the major product is trans alkene followed by cis. The minor alkene is the 1-butene as it is less substituted.

d) C is not Geometrical Isomer:

        For any alkene to demonstrate geometrical isomerism it is important that there must be two different geminal substituents attached to both carbon atoms. In 1-butene one carbon has same geminal substituents (i.e H atoms). Hence, it can not give geometrical isomers.
