How to create a galvanic element?

First, get a medium sized potato and two nails. Have some small gauge wire available. Obttain a drinking glass that will hold the potato in an upright position. Stick the nails into the potato at one end and in the middle. Get a reading then from the wires that are attached to the nails sticking into the potato. H.H.H.

Another way is to connect two different materials, copper, aluminum, iron and place them into water (a glass of fresh water). For example you can take an iron nail and connect it to a piece of sheet of aluminum with a wire. You will see that aluminum corrode while the iron will not corrode. To increase the effect you can add some salt (NaCl) to the water.

Why do we call water the univeral salivnet

ankoles [38]

Water<span> is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good </span>solvent. Water dissolves more than any other liquid, therefor we called it the Universal Solvent.

Do all substances absorb heat the same way?

miv72 [106K]

Since particles are closer together, solids conduct heat better than liquids or gases. Conduction moves heat through a material. It keeps a fire going by spreading the heat through solid material. Radiation is a method of heat transfer that does not require particles to carry the heat energy.

Which of the following equations has correct formulas and also is a balanced equation?

aliya0001 [1]

Answer : The correct option is, (B)

Explanation :

Balance equation : Balanced equation are those equation in which the number of atoms of each element and the total charge must be same on products side and reactants side.

In the given options, only option (B) equation has correct formula and also a balanced equation.

$2Be+O_2\rightarrow 2BeO$

while the other options has incorrect formulas and also an unbalanced equations.

The correct equation for option A is, $CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2$

The correct equation for option C is, $2Mg+O_2\rightarrow 2MgO$

The correct equation for option D is, $KCl+HNO_3\rightarrow HCl+KNO_3$

Hence, the correct answer is, (B) $2Be+O_2\rightarrow 2BeO$

Lead(II) oxide from an ore can be reduced to elemental lead by heating in a furnace with carbon. Calculate the expected yield of

Lelu [443]

Answer:

53kg is the expected yield of lead

Explanation:

Firstly, in order to solve this question, we need to write the equation of reaction correctly. This is as follows:

PbO(s) + C(s) ---> Pb(l) + CO(g)

We proceed from here. We should get the limiting reactant but this can only be obtained by getting the number of moles of each reactant present.

The formula to use across all boards is that the number of moles is the mass of each of the reactant divided by the molar mass of each of the reactant.

For PBO, mass is 57kg = 57000g

Molar mass of PBO = 223.20g/mol

The number of moles is thus 57,000/223.2 = 255.37 moles

For carbon, mass is also 57kg = 57000g

Molar mass is 12g/mol

Number of moles of carbon = 57000/12 = 4750 moles

From the number of moles, we can see that the number of moles of Carbon is greater than that of PbO. This means that PbO is the limiting reagent.

Hence we use it to calculate percentage yield.

The number of moles of lead formed is the same of number of moles of lead oxide = 255.37 since we have mole ratio of 1 to 1

The molar mass of lead is 207.20g/mol

The mass of lead formed is = moles of lead formed * molar mass of lead = 207.20 * 255.37 = 52,912g which is approximately 53kg

Hence the expected yield is 53kg
