Answer:
Open spaces in water's solid structure makes its solid state less dense than its liquid state.
Explanation:
- Water unlike other liquids is special. It contracts when cooled, down to a temperature of 4°C but thereafter begins to expand as it reaches 0°C and turns into ice.
- This property is useful for the preservation of marine life in very cold temperatures. During winter, the surface water in water lakes and rivers starts cooling. Upon reaching the temperature of 4°C, the surface water descends to the bottom as it denser.
- This help in the maintenance of temperature of the water at the bottom at 4°C. It is in this layer that marine life is sustained.
Answer:
52 da
Step-by-step explanation:
Whenever a question asks you, "How long to reach a certain concentration?" or something similar, you must use the appropriate integrated rate law expression.
The i<em>ntegrated rate law for a first-order reaction </em>is
ln([A₀]/[A] ) = kt
Data:
[A]₀ = 750 mg
[A] = 68 mg
t_ ½ = 15 da
Step 1. Calculate the value of the rate constant.
t_½ = ln2/k Multiply each side by k
kt_½ = ln2 Divide each side by t_½
k = ln2/t_½
= ln2/15
= 0.0462 da⁻¹
Step 2. Calculate the time
ln(750/68) = 0.0462t
ln11.0 = 0.0462t
2.40 = 0.0462t Divide each side by 0.0462
t = 52 da
It’s easy, if the PH of any acidic solution = -Log[H+], where [H+] is hydrogen ion concentration, multiply each term by (-1) then raise each term as a power to (10), so it will become like this:-
[H+] = 10^(-PH)
Answer: One formula unit of NaCl consists of one cation, whose chemical symbol is
and one anion whose chemical symbol is 
Explanation:
For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.
The cation is formed by the metal sodium which forms
and the anion is formed by non metal chlorine which forms
.
For a formula unit of sodium chloride, the charges have to be balanced , thus the valencies of ions are exchanged and the neutral compound result. Thus
and
combine to form neutral
