Answer:

A large quantity

Explanation:

A large quantity will take much longer to melt compared to a small quantity of the same matter.

The rate of melt of a substance is particularly a function of the nature of the substance and the amount of energy supplied to it.

If we assume that we are dealing with different quantities of the same substance, then the one that has more mass will melt faster because less energy would be required to change its state.

A large quantity of matter will take more time to melt.

What is the concentration of the solution prepared by dissolving 2.35 g of KBr (M = 119 g/mol) in 250 mL of water?

dusya [7]

Answer:

The concentration of KBr is $C = 0.07899 \ mol L^{-1}$

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The mass of KBr is $m_{KBr} = 2.35 \ g$

The molar mass of KBr is $M_{KBr} = 119 g/mol$

Volume of water is $V = 250 \ mL = 250 *10^{-3} = 0.250 \ L$

This implies that the volume of the solution is $V = 250 mL$

The number of moles of KBr is

$n = \frac{m_{KBr}}{M_{KBr}}$

Substituting values

$n = \frac{2.35}{119}$

$n = 0.01975 \ mol$

The concentration of KBr is mathematically represented as

$C = \frac{0.01975}{0.250}$

$C = 0.07899 \ mol L^{-1}$

Who started sneakers

hodyreva [135]

In late 18th century, people wore rubber soled shoes called plimsolls, but they weren't the best sneakers. Around 1892, a US company named Keds started sneakers with a canvas top and rubber soles. By 1917, these were mass produced.

In this experiment we will be using a 0.05 M solution of HCl to determine the concentration of hydroxide (OH-) in a saturated so

gulaghasi [49]

<u>Answer:</u> The moles of hydroxide ions present in the sample is 0.0008 moles

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of acid, we use the equation given by neutralization reaction:

$n_1M_1V_1=n_2M_2V_2$

where,

$n_1,M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of acid which is HCl.

$n_2,M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the n-factor, molarity and volume of base which is $Ca(OH)_2$

We are given:

$n_1=1\\M_1=0.05M\\V_1=16mL\\n_2=2\\M_2=?M\\V_2=36.0mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1\times 0.05\times 16=2\times M_2\times 36\\\\M_2=\frac{1\times 0.05\times 16}{2\times 36}=0.011M$

To calculate the moles of hydroxide ions, we use the equation used to calculate the molarity of solution:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Volume of solution (in mL)}}$

Molarity of solution = 0.011 M

Volume of solution = 36.0 mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.011=\frac{\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2\times 1000}{36}\\\\\text{Moles of }Ca(OH)_2=\frac{0.011\times 36}{1000}=0.0004mol$

1 mole of calcium hydroxide produces 1 mole of calcium ions and 2 moles of hydroxide ions.

Moles of hydroxide ions = (0.0004 × 2) = 0.0008 moles

Hence, the moles of hydroxide ions present in the sample is 0.0008 moles

What will happen if there is an insufficient supply of oxygen during the combustion of a hydrocarbon?

Kamila [148]

As long as there is some oxygen, the reaction will occur. If there is an insufficient amount of oxygen, then the oxygen will be the limiting reacting and there will be excess of the other reactants.
