Answer:

The correct answer is - alkali or base.

Explanation:

The litmus paper test is used to find whether a solution is basic or acidic. In a litmus paper test, a litmus paper is a dip in a particular or desired solution that turns the color of litmus paper to red, blue, or purple based on the pH of the solution.

If the paper turns red it means the solution is acidic, in a neutral solution it turns to the purple color and if the blue color appears then it is a basic or alkali solution. The solution of baking soda turns litmus paper into blue color which means baking soda is most likely a base.

julsineya [31]

Answer:

Helium is the second element on the periodic table. It is located in period 1 and group 18 or 8A on the righthand side of the table. This group contains the noble gases, which are the most chemically inert elements on the periodic table. Each He atom has two protons and usually two neutrons and two electrons.

1. The most useful ore of aluminum is bauxite, in which Al is present as hydrated oxides, Al2O3⋅xH2O The number of kilowatt-hour
lianna [129]

*Answer:

Option A: 59.6

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 4.00 kg

The applied emf = 5.00 V

watts = volts * amperes

Step 2: Calculate amperes

equivalent mass of aluminum = 27 / 3 = 9  

mass of deposit = (equivalent mass x amperes x seconds) / 96500

4000 grams = (9* amperes * seconds) / 96500

amperes * seconds = 42888888.9

1 hour = 3600 seconds

amperes * hours = 42888888.9 / 3600 = 11913.6

amperes = 11913.6 / hours

Step 3: Calculate kilowatts

watts = 5 * 11913.6 / hours

watts = 59568 (per hour)

kilowatts = 59.6 (per hour)

The number of kilowatt-hours of electricity required to produce 4.00kg of aluminum from electrolysis of compounds from bauxite is 59.6 kWh when the applied emf is 5.00V

The empirical formula of styrene is CH; find the % composition for H and CH. How many atoms are present in a 2.00 gram sample of
lina2011 [118]
% Composition = ?
no atom in 2 g of styrene =? 
molar mass of strene =104.15
% composition of c= 12/13.008 =.922*100=92.2
% composition of h =1.008/13.008=0.0774*100= 7.74

no gram atom=mass in kg /molar mass=2/104.15 =0.01920 mol
no of gram atom * avogadro's number  = 0.0192*6.02 *10( exponent 23) =1.15584
