Answer:

The line with spikes and semicircles is a stationary front, it brings days of steady rain.

Explanation:

L means Low pressure, it brings stormy weather with strong winds.

H means High pressure, it brings fair weather and light winds.

The line with spikes is a cold weather front, it brings thunderstorms and colder

temperatures.

The line with spikes and semicircles is a stationary front, it brings days of steady rain.

A 0.4021-g sample of a purified organic acid was dissolved in water and titrated potentiometrically. A plot of the data revealed

Archy [21]

Answer:

The molar mass of the acid is 167.5 g/mol

Explanation:

A 0.4021-g sample of a purified organic acid was dissolved in water and titrated potentiometrically. A plot of the data revealed a single end point after 19.31 mL of 0.1243 M NaOH had been introduced. Calculate the molecular mass of the acid.

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample of a purified organic acid = 0.4021 grams

Molarity = 0.1243 M

Volume needed to reach the end point = 19.1 mL = 0.01931 L

Step 2: Calculate the number of moles NaOH

Moles NaOH = molarity NaOH * volume

Moles NaOH = 0.1243 M * 0.01931 L

Moles NaOH = 0.00240 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles of the acid

We'll need 0.00240 moles of acid to neutralize 0.00240 moles of NaOH ( it's a single end point)

Moles acid = 0.00240 moles

Step 4: Calculate molar mass of the acid

Molar mass = mass / moles

Molar mass = 0.4021 grams / 0.00240 moles

Molar mass = 167.5 g/mol

The molar mass of the acid is 167.5 g/mol

mina [271]

Answer: Chemistry is the study of change. Various reasons why to study Chemistry is to appreciate the fundamentals of the world such as the composition of all living thing. We are made up of matter. The interaction of sub atomic particles in an atom to form a single being. Also to understand how certain chemicals are beneficial and harmful in our lives just by reading product labels.

During photosynthesis, plant leaves take in carbon dioxide through _______ in their leaves. a stomata b xylem c phloem

Iteru [2.4K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Stomata

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Photosynthesis refers to the process that takes place in green plants and some algae.
During the process, water and carbon dioxide are converted to nutrients or organic compounds using energy from sunlight.
The process takes place in the chloroplast on the leaves of green plants.
The water used during photosynthesis comes from the soil and then transported by xylem tissue to the leaves where the process takes place.
Carbon dioxide enters the leaves through the stomata which are the sites for gaseous exchange.
Sunlight is trapped by green pigments on the leaves known as chlorophyll.

The melting point of H₂O(s) is 0 °C. Would you expect the melting point of H₂S(s) to be 85 °C, 0 °C or -85 °C.? Justify your cho

dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

-85 °C

Explanation:

O and S are in the same group( Group 16). Since S is below O it's atomic mass is higher than O. So molar mass of H2S is higher than H2O. The strength of Vanderwaal Interactions ( London dispersion forces) increases when the molar mass increases. However, only H2O can form H bonds with each other. This is because electronegativity of O is higher than S and therefore H in H2O has a higher partial positive charge than H of H2S.

H bond dominate among these 2 types of forces so the strength of attractions between molecules is higher in H2O than H2S. Therefore more energy should be supplied for H2O to break inter

molecular forces and convert from solid to liquid state than H2S. So mpt of H2O must be higher than that of H2S.
