Once again rocks and/or minerals

Chemistry
2 answers:
emmasim [6.3K]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Luster, hardness , colour , clevage and magnetism

Explanation:

1. Luster makes sure the light is reflected by the mineral.

2. On the 10-point Mohs scale, which is basically a scratch test, hardness is measured. Take an unidentified mineral and scrape it like a fingernail with an object of known hardness.

3. Zurite, for instance, is often a deep blue, and malachite is gray.

4. In minerals that appear to divide along one or more flat surfaces or planes, cleavage may be observed.

5. Magnetite, for instance, has a heavy pull that even weak magnets can draw. But there is only a poor attraction to other minerals, particularly chromite (a black oxide) and pyrrhotite (a bronze sulfide.)

Answer:

you can classify a mineral by its appearance and other properties. The presence of a mineral is defined by the color and luster, and the color of the powdered mineral is described by the band. Every mineral has a distinctive density. To compare the hardness of rocks, the Mohs Hardness Scale is used.

20 ML of a gas at 200 K is heated until the new volume is 55ML what is the final temperature of the gas
MrRa [10]

Answer:

T2 = 550K

Explanation:

From Charles law;

V1/T1 = V2/T2

Where;

V1 is initial volume

V2 is final volume

T1 is initial temperature

T2 is final temperature

We are given;

V1 = 20 mL

V2 = 55 mL

T1 = 200 K

Thus from V1/T1 = V2/T2, making T2 the subject;

T2 = (V2 × T1)/V1

T2 = (55 × 200)/20

T2 = 550K

How do hydroxyl ions and hydronium ions affect pH?
Nookie1986 [14]
Hydroxyl ions are OH⁻ while hydronium ions are H₃O⁺ which is essentially H⁺ ions. The formula for pH is: pH = -log[H⁺]. So, the greater the concentration of H⁺ is, the lower the pH which indicates acidity. On the other hand, the greater the concentration of OH⁻, the greater the pH which indicates basicity. This is also a consequence of the equation: pH + pOH = 14.

A compound is made up of iron and oxygen, only. The ratio of iron ions to oxide ions is 2:3 in this compound. The IUPAC name for
never [62]

Answer: The correct option is 3.

Explanation: We are given a compound which is made up of iron and oxygen only. The ratio of the two are given as:

\frac{\text{iron ions}}{\text{oxide ions}}=\frac{2}{3}

This means that, number of iron ions are 2

Number of oxide ions are 3

From the above information, the formula becomes : Fe_2O_3

The valency of iron = 3

Valency of oxide = 2

This compound is named as iron (III) oxide.

Hence, the correct option is 3

The standard heats of formation for CO2(g), C2H6(g), and H2O(l) are -394.0 kJ/mol, -84.00 kJ/mol, and -286.0 kJ, respectively. W
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

ΔH°r = -1562 kJ

Explanation:

Let's consider the following combustion.

C₂H₆(g) + 7/2 O₂(g) ⇒ 2 CO₂(g) + 3 H₂O(l)

We can calculate the standard heat of reaction (ΔH°r) using the following expression:

ΔH°r = ∑np × ΔH°f(p) - ∑nr × ΔH°f(r)

where,

ni are the moles of reactants and products

ΔH°f(i) are the standard heats of formation of reactants and products

The standard heat of formation of simple substances in their most stable state is zero. That means that ΔH°f(O₂(g)) = 0

ΔH°r = ∑np × ΔH°f(p) - ∑nr × ΔH°f(r)

ΔH°r = [2 mol × ΔH°f(CO₂) + 3 mol × ΔH°f(H₂O)] - [1 mol × ΔH°f(C₂H₆) + 7/2 mol × ΔH°f(O₂)]

ΔH°r = [2 mol × (-394.0 kJ/mol) + 3 mol × (-286.0 kJ/mol)] - [1 mol × (-84.00 kJ/mol) + 7/2 mol × 0]

ΔH°r = -1562 kJ
