Which choice can be classified as a pure substance?

Chemistry
2 answers:
Lyrx [107]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Salt

Explanation:

Pure substances are those that contain atoms or molecules of the same type. For eg: elements are pure (gold, hydrogen etcl.) and compounds (such as water, sodium chloride, etc.), etc.

Rest of choice are impure because they contain a mixture of different things, like pie has eggs, or all sorts of other molecules, salt water has water and salt molecules, and iced tea has water and other molecules associated with tea.

Hello!

After the addition of the last two teaspoons of salt, the solution is saturated

A solution is saturated when it has the highest amount of solute (in this case the salt) that the solvent (in this case the water) can dissolve at that pressure and temperature. 

Visually, a saturated solution can be detected when the adding of more solute results in the settling of solute grains (in this case salt) at the bottom of the container, because the solvent couldn't dissolve them at that pressure and temperature. That's why we can say that the solution is saturated.

The three types of nuclear radiation in increasing order of penetrating power are ____.
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The three types of nuclear radiation in increasing order of penetrating power are ____.

alpha, beta, gamma

Explanation:

Alpha Ray: This has the least penetrating power because the particles produced during decay are large in  quantity but they have a very low energy which dosent alow them to move far through space because the are ususally blocked.

Beta ray : they have more penetrating power than alpha rays because they a bit higher in energy and quantity {size}

Gamma Ray;  this has the most penetrating power. they are highly powerful  waves but do little at ionization of other atoms or molecules.  it penetrates through molecules very easily due to its size and energy.

A 3.0 g sample of a gas occupies a volume of 1.00L at 100C and 740 torr pressure. The molecular weight of the
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

94.2 g/mol

Explanation:

Ideal Gases Law can useful to solve this

P . V = n . R . T

We need to make some conversions

740 Torr . 1 atm/ 760 Torr = 0.974 atm

100°C + 273 = 373K

Let's replace the values

0.974 atm . 1 L = n . 0.082 L.atm/ mol.K . 373K

n will determine the number of moles

(0.974 atm . 1 L) / (0.082 L.atm/ mol.K . 373K)

n = 0.032 moles

This amount is the weigh for 3 g of gas. How many grams does 1 mol weighs?

Molecular weight → g/mol → 3 g/0.032 moles = 94.2 g/mol

Complete combustion of 7.40 g of a hydrocarbon produced 22.4 g of CO2 and 11.5 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
cluponka [151]
<span>C2H5 First, you need to figure out the relative ratios of moles of carbon and hydrogen. You do this by first looking up the atomic weight of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Then you use those atomic weights to calculate the molar masses of H2O and CO2. Carbon = 12.0107 Hydrogen = 1.00794 Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass of H2O = 2 * 1.00794 + 15.999 = 18.01488 Molar mass of CO2 = 12.0107 + 2 * 15.999 = 44.0087 Now using the calculated molar masses, determine how many moles of each product was generated. You do this by dividing the given mass by the molar mass. moles H2O = 11.5 g / 18.01488 g/mole = 0.638361 moles moles CO2 = 22.4 g / 44.0087 g/mole = 0.50899 moles The number of moles of carbon is the same as the number of moles of CO2 since there's just 1 carbon atom per CO2 molecule. Since there's 2 hydrogen atoms per molecule of H2O, you need to multiply the number of moles of H2O by 2 to get the number of moles of hydrogen. moles C = 0.50899 moles H = 0.638361 * 2 = 1.276722 We can double check our math by multiplying the calculated number of moles of carbon and hydrogen by their respective atomic weights and see if we get the original mass of the hydrocarbon. total mass = 0.50899 * 12.0107 + 1.276722 * 1.00794 = 7.400185 7.400185 is more than close enough to 7.40 given rounding errors, so the double check worked. Now to find the empirical formula we need to find a ratio of small integers that comes close to the ratio of moles of carbon and hydrogen. 0.50899 / 1.276722 = 0.398669 0.398669 is extremely close to 4/10, so let's reduce that ratio by dividing both top and bottom by 2 giving 2/5. Since the number of moles of carbon was on top, that ratio implies that the empirical formula for this unknown hydrocarbon is C2H5</span>
