Which statements accurately describe soap? Select one or more:

Chemistry
1 answer:
tia_tia [17]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

A. Soaps react with ions in hard water to create a precipitate.

B. Soaps are both hydrophobic and hydrophilic.

D. Soaps should be weakly alkaline in solution.

Explanation:

A. Hard water contains <u>magnesium and calcium minerals</u> like calcium and magnesium carbonates, sulfates and bicarbonates. As soon as these minerals come in contact with soap their ions like Mg²⁺ & Ca²⁺ form precipitates.

B. Soap are both hydrophilic and hydrophobic. They reason why they exhibit both the properties is really important for their functionality. The hydrophobic part of soap makes interaction with oil/dust particles while the hydrophilic part makes interaction with water. When the cloth is rinsed the dirt/soap particles are removed from the dirty clothes thereby making them clean.

C. Soaps have alkaline pH i.e. more than 7 that is why they have bitter taste.

Calculate the theoretical yield of 1-bromobutane; base your calculations on using 1.0 g of 1-butanol (as the limiting reagent).
Tomtit [17]

C₄H₉OH + HBr = C₄H₉Br + H2O

Δmole of alcohol gives 1 mole of bromobutanol

HBr is in excess, so the yield of the product is limited by the alcohol

Wt. of 1 butanol = 18

Molar mass of the butanol = 74.12 g/mole

Moles of the alcohol = 1/74.12 = 0.01349 moles

So, moles of bromobutane = 0.01349 moles

Molar mass of C₄H₉Br = 137.018 g/moles

So, theoretical mass of bromobutane is = 0.01349 × 137.0.18

= 1.85 g

How much salt (NaCl) is carried by a river flowing at 30.0 m3/s and containing 50.0 mg/L of salt
denis23 [38]

Answer:

129,600kg/day

Explanation:

The river is flowing at 30.0

1 m³ is equivalent to 1000L

flowrate of river = 30*1000 =30,000L/s

Convert L/s to litre per day by multiplying by 24*60*60

flowrate of river = 30,000 * 24*60*60 L/day

                    = 2,592,000,000L/day

if the river contains 50mg of salt  in 1L of solution

lets find how many mg of salt Y is contained in 2,592,000,000L/day

by cross multiplying we have

Y=\frac{2592000000*50}{1}

Y= 129,600,000,000 mg/day

convert this value to kg/day by dividing by 1 million

Y= 129,600,000,000/1000000

Y= 129,600kg/day

think about putting a glass of water on the counter, in the freezer, and on a hot stove how does the temperature of the water af
Shtirlitz [24]

The kinetic energy and the physical state of water depend strongly on the temperature;

  • Firstly, The kinetic energy of water on a hot stove is higher than that on the counter in the freezer; that the kinetic energy is directly proportional to the temperature according to the relation: K = \frac{3RT}{2NA} ; where R is the universal gas constant, T is the temperature and NA is Avogadro number.

As the temperature increases, the speed of colliding molecules increases and the kinetic energy increases.

  • Secondly, The physical state of water depends on the temperature; water has three states (gas, liquid and solid) depends on the temperature.
  • If a glass of water is putt on the counter in the freezer, it will be converted to the solid state (ice).
  • And, as if it is putt on a hot stove, it will be vapor (gaseous state).

Where did the mass of the forest tress come from? What happen to that mass when the forest burns?
mart [117]

Answer:

The mass of the forest comes from carbon and carbon is retrieved from carbon-dioxide that trees used during the process of photosynthesis. In the process of photosynthesis, carbon-dioxide is utilised from the atmosphere by trees and release oxygen and ATP.

When the forest burns the mass again releases to atmosphere in the form of carbon which causes air pollution and increases carbon content in the atmosphere.
