Answer:

When liquid water is cooled, it contracts until a temperature of approximately 4 degrees Celsius is reached. After that, it expands slightly until it reaches the freezing point, and then when it freezes it expands by approximately 9%. When water freezes, water molecules form a crystalline structure maintained by hydrogen bonding. Ice is less dense than water because the orientation of hydrogen bonds causes molecules to push farther apart, which lowers the density.

Hospital patients are administered oxygen from an pressurized
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

32000atm

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law equation;

P1V1 = P2V2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

V1 = initial volume (

V2 = final volume (L)

According to the question below:

P1 = 160.0 atm

P2 = 3.0 atm

V1 = 600L

V2 = ?

Using P1V1 = P2V2

160 × 600 = 3 × V2

96000 = 3V2

V2 = 96000/3

V2 = 32000atm

Calculate the heat change involved when 2.00 L of water is heated from 20.0/C to 99.7/C in
IgorC [24]

Answer:

669.48 kJ

Explanation:

According to the question, we are required to determine the heat change involved.

We know that, heat change is given by the formula;

Heat change = Mass × change in temperature × Specific heat

In this case;

Change in temperature = Final temp - initial temp

                                       = 99.7°C - 20°C

                                       = 79.7° C

Mass of water is 2000 g ( 2000 mL × 1 g/mL)

Specific heat of water is 4.2 J/g°C

Therefore;

Heat change = 2000 g × 79.7 °C × 4.2 J/g°C

                      = 669,480 joules

But, 1 kJ = 1000 J

Therefore, heat change is 669.48 kJ

A 50% antifreeze solution is to be mixed with a 90% antifreeze solution to get 200 liters of a 80% solution. How many liters of
sergey [27]

Answer:

50 ltr 150 ltr

Explanation:

this problem can be solved by the mixture and allegation concept which can be clearly understand from bellow figure in which the concentration of solution 1 is 50% and concentration of solution 2 is 90% before mixing after mixing with help bellow concept the ratio of concentration become 10:30

ratio of solution 1 and solution 2 =10:30

                                                     =1:3

total mixture is 200 liters

part of solution 1=\frac{1}{4} ×200

                           =50 liters

part of solution 2=\frac{3}{4} ×200

                           =150 liters

List the spectator ions in the following reaction.
Rudik [331]

Answer:

2Na⁺ (aq) and 2OH⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Spectator ions:

Spectator ions are those ions which are same on both side of chemical reaction. These ions are same in the reactant side and product side. Their presence can not effect the chemical equilibrium that's why when we write the net ionic equation these ions are neglect or omitted.

Given ionic equation:

Ba⁺²(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) + 2Na⁺ (aq) + CO²⁻₃(aq) → BaCO₃(s) + + 2Na⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻(aq)

In given ionic equation by omitting the spectator ions i.e, 2Na⁺ (aq) and 2OH⁻(aq)  net ionic equation can be written as,

Net ionic equation:

Ba⁺²(aq) + CO²⁻₃(aq) → BaCO₃(s)
