pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

See below :)

Explanation:

There is an evident reason why some of the solutions Carson's has listed and observed, does conduct electricity and some that do.

A flow of electrical charge is called an electric current. Ions are atoms, or sets of atoms, that contain an electrical charge. There are two types of ions, cation or a positively charged ion containing a deficiency of electrons, and anion or a negatively charged ion which contains a surplus of electrons. When a solution conducts electricity the charge is carried within by ions that move through the solution. The larger the number of ions in the solution, the better the conductivity of the solution is. Pure water does not conduct very well because it contains very few ions, but when table salt (NaCl) is dissolved in the water, this solution does conduct well because the solution contains a more abundance of ions. The majority of the ions come from the table salt, chemically names sodium chloride. Because Sodium contains its sodium ions, and these are positive charge and chloride ions which is a negative charge, it is called an ionic substance. Not every substance is made up of ions, one such example is sugar (C12H22O11). Sugar is made up of uncharged particles also called molecules. Although sugar is a substance its molecules do not hold a charge, thus when sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, due to the lack of ions in the solution.

Therefore, depending on the ions that make up the compound, the substance would or would not conduct electricity.

Monica [59]

Answer:

1.239 * 10^8 Kg

Explanation:

Since all the electricity consumed comes from natural gas;

amount of electricity consumed = 700 * 300,000 = 2.1 * 10^8 kWh

So, amount of CO2 consumed is given by;

amount of electricity consumed * amount of CO2 per kWh

Hence,

Amount of CO2 = 2.1 * 10^8 kWh * 0.59 = 1.239 * 10^8 Kg

What is molarity of 50.0 g of mgcl2 dissolved in 150 ml of solution?
Ivahew [28]
To find the molarity of the compound, simply determine the molar mass of MgCl2 and then convert 50 g to moles using the molar mass of the compound. Then convert 150 ml to L = 0.15 L

Then divide the moles amount by the volume in L.
