Answer:

Clay soil

Explanation:

There are basically three types of soil namely: Sandy soil, clayey soil and loamy soil. Each of this soil type possess their own distinguishing characteristics. For example, on the basis of particle size and texture, CLAY SOIL possesses the smallest and finest particles.

Particles in a clay soil weighs lesser than 0.002 millimeters (mm) in size, making it have a high water holding or retention capacity.

Density of iron is 7.8 g/cc. How much would 10 cc of iron weigh?

Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is 78 g</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume = 10 cc

density = 7.8 g/cc

So we have

mass = 7.8 × 10

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you

The enthalpy of combustion of naphthalene (MW = 128.17 g/mol) is -5139.6 kJ/mol. How much energy is produced by burning 0.8210 g

bazaltina [42]

The energy produced by burning : -32.92 kJ

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Delta H reaction (ΔH) is the amount of heat change between the system and its environment

(ΔH) can be positive (endothermic = requires heat) or negative (exothermic = releasing heat)

The enthalpy and heat(energy) can be formulated :

$\tt \Delta H=\dfrac{Q}{n}\rightarrow n=mol$

The enthalpy of combustion of naphthalene (MW = 128.17 g/mol) is -5139.6 kJ/mol.

The energy released for 0.8210 g of naphthalene :

$\tt Q=\Delta H\times n\\\\Q=-5139.6~kJ/mol\times \dfrac{0.8210~g}{128.17~g/mol}~\\\\Q=-32.92~kJ$

The Ksp can be used to find the concentration of hydroxide ions, and thus determine the pH given a concentration of of aluminum.

Anton [14]

Answer:

3.9.

Explanation:

(Molar mass of 342.15 g/mol).

The first thing to do in this question is to coverts our units. We are given 6.70 lb = 453.592 × 6.70 lb = 3039.0664 g of aluminum sulfate.

2050 gallons of water = 2050 × 3.785 = 7759.25 Litres.

After this we will now look for the Concentration aluminum sulfate using the formula below:

Concentration = number of moles ÷ volume. ------------------------------------(1).

Recall; Number of moles = 3039.0664/ 342.15 = 8.8823 moles. The volume = 2050 gallons = 7759.25 Litres.

Therefore, slotting in the values of of number of moles and volume into the equation (1) above, we have;

Concentration= 8.8823 moles/ 7759.25 Litres. = 0.001145 M.

The next equation we are going to make use of today is that of the solubilty product that is;

Ksp = (Al^3+) (OH^-)^3.

So, we have the ksp = 1.3 × 10^-33 and the value of (Al^3+)= 0.001145 M.

Hence, making (OH^-) the subject of the formula;

(OH^-) = ( 1.3 × 10^-33 / 0.001145)^1/3.

(OH^-) = 8 × 10^-11 M.

Hence, pOH = - log (OH^-)

pOH = - log (8 × 10^-11).

pOH = 10.1

Therefore, the values of pH is; 1

pH + pOH = 14.

pH = 14 - 10.1 = 3.9.

Balance <br> Na2O+H2O → NaOH

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:
Na2O+H2O=2NaOH
Step by step exp.
Given:
Equation Na2O+H2O=NaOH
To find: Balance the equation
Solution:
Taking LHS of the equation
LHS=Na2O+H2O
There is 2 sodium, 2 oxygen,& 2 hydrogen
To balance the equation we have equal number of atom so we multply 2 to the RHS=2NaOH
There fore the equation form is
Na2O+H2O=2NaOH

When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, the directions say to put the 255 grams of filled pasta into 3 quarts of boiling water. why

kondaur [170]

<span>When cooking frozen cheese ravioli, you should use three quarts of water instead of one so that the raviolis have room to move around in the boiling water and so that while they are moving around, they will not stick to each other or the pan.</span>
