here \: is \: your \: answer

Solution used to white wash the walls is Quick lime(CaO) and when it is mixed with slaked lime [Ca(OH)2]. When this paste is used for white washing it combines with atmospheric CO2 to form calcium carbonate (CaCO3) which gives it a shiny texture.

What is the bond angle between the hydrogen atoms in an ammonia (NH₃) molecule?
dimulka [17.4K]
There are 4 electron pairs (3 bonding and 1 lone pair) so the angle is 107 degrees. The 4 electron pairs are repelled to give a tetrahedral arrangement but the molecule has a pyrimidal shape due to the lone pair.

The density of lava is 3.1 g/cm². It has a volume of 2700 cm3. How much does this block of lava weigh?
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

Mass of lava is 8370 g.

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

density of lava = 3.1 g/cm³

volume= 2700 cm³

mass= ?

Solution:

d = m/v

m = d×v

m = 3.1 g/cm³×2700 cm³

m = 8370 g

Can anyone solve this please. I need this fastly
Natalka [10]

Answer:

Average atomic mass = 63.3896

Explanation:

Step 1: Find how much Cu-65 we have

1 - Amount of Cu-63 = Amount of Cu-65

1 - 0.6915 = Amount of Cu-65

Amount of Cu-65 = 0.305

Step 2: Find the average atomic mass of Cu

(0.6915 x 63) + (0.305 x 65) = <em>Average atomic mass</em>

(43.5645) + (19.825) = <em>Average atomic mass</em>

63.3895 = <em>Average atomic mass</em>

Therefore the average atomic mass of Cu is 63.3895 atomic mass units

Melts in the system pb-sn exhibit regular solution behavior. at 473°c apb = 0.055 in a liquid solution of xpb = 0.1. calculate t
Masteriza [31]
Given the temperature 746 K and activity of Pb equal to 0.055. The mole fraction of Pb is 0.1. So, the mole fraction of Sn = 0.9.Activity coefficient, γ = 0.055 / 0.1 = 0.55.The expression for w=ln⁡〖γ_Pb x RT〗/(X_Sn^2 )=(-0.5978 x 8.314 J/(mol K ) x 746 K)/(0.9 x 0.9)= -4577.7 J= -4578 J

Now we use the computed value above and new temperature 773 K. The mole fraction of Sn and Pb are 0.5 and 0.5 respectively. Calculate the activity coefficient in the following manner.lnγ_Sn=w/RT  X_Pb^2=(-4578 J)/(8.314 J/mol  x 773 K)  x 0.5 x 0.5= -0.718lnγ_Sn=exp⁡(-0.178)=0.386The activity of  Sn= γ_Sn  x X_Sn=0.386 x 0.5=0.418
w of the system is -4578 J and the activity of Sn in the liquid solution  of xsn at 500 degree Celsius is 0.418
