Answer:
Wouldn't rust because zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron and will therefore oxidize first.
Explanation:
This process whereby rusting of steel is prevented by coating the steel with a layer of zinc is known as galvanization.
Now, in this process, the steel object will be coated in a thin layer of zinc. This coating will prevent oxygen and water from reaching the underneath metal since the zinc will also act as a sacrificial metal.
Now, Zinc is used because it has a lower reduction potential than iron and thus it will get easily more oxidized than iron. Which means the zinc will lose electrons more readily than iron.
Also, since zinc has a lower reduction potential, it is therefore the more active metal. Thus, even if the zinc coating is scratched and the steel is exposed to moist air, the zinc will still get to oxidize before the iron.
Answer:
Explanation:
That's correct. Once Aluminum becomes an ion, it is very hard to force it to take back its electrons. Only a few elements can do it. Iron is not one of them.
As glaciers melted at the end of the last Ice Age worldwide sea level increased immensely and river plains were flooded. Glaciers are floating bodies of ice. Ice is frozen water. When glaciers started melting water that had been frozen for decades or centuries was released back into the ocean. That lead to an increase in sea level. This also led to river plains being drowned/flooded. Therefore, the answer is 1 and 2.
Answer:
Approximately 6.81 × 10⁵ Pa.
Assumption: carbon dioxide behaves like an ideal gas.
Explanation:
Look up the relative atomic mass of carbon and oxygen on a modern periodic table:
Calculate the molar mass of carbon dioxide
:
.
Find the number of moles of molecules in that
sample of
:
.
If carbon dioxide behaves like an ideal gas, it should satisfy the ideal gas equation when it is inside a container:
,
where
is the pressure inside the container.
is the volume of the container.
is the number of moles of particles (molecules, or atoms in case of noble gases) in the gas.
is the ideal gas constant.
is the absolute temperature of the gas.
Rearrange the equation to find an expression for
, the pressure inside the container.
.
Look up the ideal gas constant in the appropriate units.
.
Evaluate the expression for
:
.
Apply dimensional analysis to verify the unit of pressure.
