When solid zinc is dropped into hydrochloric acid solution, it falls to the bottom due to its higher density. The reaction occurs at the surface of the zinc metal and generates hydrogen gas that bubbles up through the solution. You can tell that the rate increases because the rate of bubble formation increases. This will naturally occur because the reaction is exothermic and will warm the solution around the zinc metal. The higher temperature will increase the reaction rate.

If you want a more quantitative analysis of reaction rate, you can perform the experiment in a eudiometer tube that is inverted and completely filled with liquid. As the hydrogen gas collects in the tube you can measure its accumulated volume with time. That will allow you to determine an approximate kinetic rate law for the process. The rate law determined in this manner will suffer from error due to temperature and surface area changes as well as gas volume error due to water vapor. But, it is an interesting application of chemical kinetics.

Any factor that causes molecules to collide more frequently speeds up the reaction rate. This is achieved by an increase of the reactants concentration, surface area, raised temp. , raised pressure of gaseous reactant, or an addition of catalysts to the reactant

A package of aluminum foil contains 50. ft2 of foil, which weighs approximately 8.5 oz . aluminum has a density of 2.70 g/cm3. w

Serhud [2]

Hello!

We have the following data:

Area (A) = 50 square feet
Mass (m) = 8.5 ounces
Density (d) = 2.70 g/cm³
Volume (V) = ?
Thickness (T) =? (in mm)

To move on, we must transform the area of 50 ft² in cm², let's see:

1 ft² ------- 929,0304 cm²
50 ft² ----- A

$A = 50*929,0304$

$\boxed{A = 46451,52\:cm^2}\Longleftarrow(Area)$

In the same way, we will convert the mass of 8.5 oz in grams, see:

1 oz -------- 28,3495 g
8,5 oz ------- m

$m = 8,5*28,3495$

$\boxed{m = 240,97075\:g}\Longleftarrow(mass)$

Knowing that the density is 2.70 g/cm³ and the mass is 240.97075 g, we will find the volume, applying the data in the density formula we have:

$d = \dfrac{m}{V} \to V = \dfrac{m}{d}$

$V = \dfrac{240,97075\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g}{2,70\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g/cm^3}$

$V = 89,24842593... \to \boxed{V \approx 89,25\:cm^3}$

The statement wants to find the thickness of the packaging, for this we have some important data, such as: V (volume) = 89,25 cm³ and Area (A) = 46451,52 cm² and T (thickness) =? (in mm)

In the calculations of Costs in Surface Treatment of a part within the flat geometry, we will use the following formula:

$V (volume) = A (Area) * T (Thickness)$

$89,25\:cm^3 = 46451,52\:cm^2\:*\:T$

$46451,52\:cm^2*T = 89,25\:cm^3$

$T = \dfrac{89,25\:cm^3}{46451,52\:cm^2}$

$T = 0,001921358009...\:cm$

We will convert to millimeters, going through a decimal place on the right

$T = 0,01921358009..\:mm$

$\boxed{\boxed{T \approx 0,0192\:mm\:or\:T\approx \:1,92*10^{-2}\:mm}}\end{array}}\Longleftarrow(thickness)\qquad\checkmark$

Hope this helps! :))

if you take a dried out white rose and place the stem in food coloring, will the rose turn the color you put the stem in

cricket20 [7]

Answer:

Yes, this is true. The reason is that the flower transpires and sucks the water in and distributes it as much as it can. You can also flip it upside down and hang it with petals down , allowing the liquid to enter the flower and then retaining color for longer periods of time and having more color.

Two liquids are known to be miscible. They are placed in a beaker and shaken. Which of the following describes what will happen?

Karolina [17]

If they are miscible, they will mix together. They don't necessarily make a new compound. It is sort of like a dilution problem. You can mix say water and antifreeze. You don't get a chemical reaction.

No solidification occurs.

There are no layers.

There is no chemical reaction.

Answer: they will form a solution
