Answer:

minerals

Explanation:

defines a mineral as "a naturally occurring inorganic element or compound having an. orderly internal structure and characteristic chemical composition, crystal form, and physical. properties." Minerals differ from rocks, which are naturally occurring solids composed of one or more minerals.

. A bright violet line occurs at 435.8 nm in the emission spectrum of mercury vapor. What amount of energy, in joules, must be r
Tom [10]

Answer :  The energy released by an electron in a mercury atom to produce a photon of this light must be, 4.56\times 10^{-19}J

Explanation : Given,

Wavelength = 435.8nm=435.8\times 10^{-9}m

conversion used : 1nm=10^{-9}m

Formula used :

E=h\times \nu

As, \nu=\frac{c}{\lambda}

So, E=h\times \frac{c}{\lambda}

where,

\nu = frequency

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

\lambda = wavelength = 435.8\times 10^{-9}m

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

E=(6.626\times 10^{-34}Js)\times \frac{(3\times 10^{8}m/s)}{(435.8\times 10^{-9}m)}

E=4.56\times 10^{-19}J

Therefore, the energy released by an electron in a mercury atom to produce a photon of this light must be, 4.56\times 10^{-19}J

The first-order rate constant for the reaction of methyl chloride (CH3Cl) with water to produce methanol (CH3OH) and hydrochlori
Dvinal [7]

Answer:

K(48.5°C) = 1.017 E-8 s-1

Explanation:

  • CH3Cl + H2O → CH3OH + HCl

at T1 = 25°C (298 K) ⇒ K1 = 3.32 E-10 s-1

at T2 = 48.5°C (321.5 K) ⇒ K2 = ?

Arrhenius eq:

  • K(T) = A e∧(-Ea/RT)
  • Ln K = Ln(A) - [(Ea/R)(1/T)]

∴ A: frecuency factor

∴ R = 8.314 E-3 KJ/K.mol

⇒ Ln K1 = Ln(A) - [Ea/R)*(1/T1)]..........(1)

⇒ Ln K2 = Ln(A) - [(Ea/R)*(1/T2)].............(2)

(1)/(2):

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = (Ea/R)* (1/T2-1/T1)

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = (116 KJ/mol/8.3134 E-3 KJ/K.mol)*(1/321.5 K - 1/298 K)

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = (13952.37 K)*(- 2.453 E-4 K-1)

⇒ Ln (K1/K2) = - 3.422

⇒ K1/K2 = e∧(-3.422)

⇒ (3.32 E-10 s-1)/K2 = 0.0326

⇒ K2 = (3.32 E-10 s-1)/0.0326

⇒ K2 = 1.017 E-8 s-1

How many grams of H2O are needed to produce 150 g of Mg(OH)2? (Molar mass: H2O = 18.02 g/mol; Mg(OH)2 = 58.33 g/mol )
Nuetrik [128]

Answer:

92.6

Explanation:

6 mol x 18.02 g of H2o --> 3 mol x 58.33 g  Mg(OH)2

108.12 g of h2o --> 174.99 of Mg(OH)2

g of H2O is 150 g of Mg(OH)2

150g x 108.12g / 174.99 =

92.67

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

It makes the pasta to get hot faster and boil quicker.

Explanation:

Adding salt to water actually raises the boiling point of the water, due to a phenomenon called boiling point elevation. Essentially, adding any non-volatile solute such as salt to a liquid causes a decrease in the liquid’s vapour pressure. A liquid boils when the vapour pressure above it equals atmospheric pressure, so a lower vapour pressure means you need a higher temperature to boil the water. The reason salt makes water boil faster has to do with specific heat capacities, or the energy it takes to raise the temperature of a substance. Salt ions dissolved in water bind to water molecules, holding them stable and making it harder for them to move around. As a result, the non-salt bound water molecules receive more of the energy provided by the stove, and therefore they get hot faster and boil quicker.
