3 reasons why aluminium is used in making of cooking vessels

Annette [7]

Answer is : It is a good thermal and electrical conductor. -The main point to be noted is that aluminium is a highly reactive element and still it is used for making cooking utensils. The reason is that aluminium has a very high affinity for oxygen. So, it reacts with oxygen and forms a layer of aluminium oxide on its surface.

Why does weathering cause erosion

Naily [24]

Answer:Why does weathering cause erosion

Explanation:Organic weathering happens when plants break up rocks with their growing roots or plant acids help dissolve rock. Once the rock has been weakened and broken up by weathering it is ready for erosion. Erosion happens when rocks and sediments are picked up and moved to another place by ice, water, wind or gravity.

What is the correct ionic formula when mg2+ and p3− react?

Mumz [18]

Answer: Ionic formula will be $Mg_3P_2$ .

Explanation: $Mg^{2+}$ and $P^{3-}$ ions will form a ionic compound. Ionic compounds have both metals and non-metals.

Here $Mg^{2+}$ is a metal and $P^{3-}$ is a non-metal.

The net charge on any compound must be 0.

So we need 2 phosphate ions to balance the charge on $Mg^{2+}$ ions. Similarly we need 3 Magnesium ions to balance the charge on $P^{3-}$ ions.

Criss-crossing the charges, we will get the formula as $Mg_3P_2$

Criss-crossing is shown in the image below.

Dolomite is a mixed carbonate of calcium and magnesium. Calcium and magnesium carbonates both decompose upon heating to produce

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

72.03 %

Explanation:

Total mass of dolomite = 9.66 g

Let the mass of Magnesium carbonate = x g

The mass of calcium carbonate = 9.66 - x g

Calculation of the moles of Magnesium carbonate as:-

Molar mass of Magnesium carbonate = 122.44 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

$moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}$

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{x\ g}{84.3139\ g/mol}=\frac{x}{84.3139}\ mol$

Calculation of the moles of calcium carbonate as:-

Molar mass of calcium carbonate = 100.0869 g/mol

Thus,

$Moles= \frac{9.66 - x\ g}{100.0869\ g/mol}=\frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\ mol$

According to the reaction shown below:-

$MgCO_3\rightarrow MgO+CO_2$

$CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2$

In both the cases, the oxides formed from the carbonates in the 1:1 ratio.

So, Moles of MgO = $\frac{x}{84.3139}\ mol$

Molar mass of MgO = 40.3044 g/mol

Thus, Mass = Moles*Molar mass = $\frac{x}{84.3139}\times 40.3044 \ g$

Moles of CaO = $\frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\ mol$

Molar mass of CaO = 56.0774 g/mol

Thus, Mass = Moles*Molar mass = $\frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\times 56.0774 \ g$

Given that total mass of the oxide = 4.84 g

Thus,

$\frac{x}{84.3139}\times 40.3044 +\frac{9.66 - x}{100.0869}\times 56.0774=4.84$

$\frac{40.3044x}{84.3139}+56.0774\times \frac{-x+9.66}{100.0869}=4.84$

$-694.1618435x+45673.48749\dots =40843.38968\dots$

$x=\frac{4830.09780\dots }{694.1618435}$

$x=6.9582$

Thus, the mass of Magnesium carbonate = 6.9582 g

$\%\ mass=\frac{Mass_{MgCO_3}}{Total\ mass}\times 100$

$\%\ mass=\frac{6.9582}{9.66}\times 100=72.03\ \%$
