Answer:

62.9%

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Mass of hydrate sodium carbonate (mNa₂CO₃.xH₂O): 71.5 g
  • Mass of anhydrous sodium carbonate (mNa₂CO₃): 26.5 g

Step 2: Calculate the mass lost of water

We will use the following expression.

mH₂O = mNa₂CO₃.xH₂O - mNa₂CO₃

mH₂O = 71.5 g - 26.5 g = 45.0 g

Step 3: Calculate the percent of water in the hydrate sodium carbonate

We will use the following expression.

%H₂O = mH₂O / mNa₂CO₃.xH₂O × 100%

%H₂O = 45.0 g / 71.5 g × 100%

%H₂O = 62.9%

Kepler and Newton studied the movement of planets. Kepler studied the speed of the planets while Newton studied the forces that
nasty-shy [4]
Kepler did not study the speed of the planets, rather, he studied how the planets move in the solar system. He proposed three laws. As a summary, he described that the planets move around the sun in the shape of an ellipse (orbit), and the Sun being one of the foci. Then, he proposed the period for the planet to complete one revolution around the Sun. 

On the other hand, Newton studied the forces acting on the planet (or any object in space) that explain how the planets move around the solar system as described by Kepler. Also, Kepler's observations only apply to planets and not the moons or satellites. Thus, Kepler only made laws from observations, while Newton based it from underlying principles that led him to mathematical equations such as the law of universal gravitation.

There are some data that suggest that zinc lozenges can significantly shorten the duration of a cold. If the solubility of zinc
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

K_{sp} of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} is 0.0513

Explanation:

Solubility equilibrium of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}:

Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2}\rightleftharpoons Zn^{2+}+2CH_{3}COO^{-}

Solubility product of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} (K_{sp}) is written as-            K_{sp}=[Zn^{2+}][CH_{3}COO^{-}]^{2}

Where [Zn^{2+}] and [CH_{3}COO^{-}] represents equilibrium concentration (in molarity) of Zn^{2+} and CH_{3}COO^{-} respectively.

Molar mass of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} = 183.48 g/mol

So, solubility of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} = \frac{43.0}{183.48}M = 0.234M

1 mol of Zn(CH_{3}COO)_{2} gives 1 mol of Zn^{2+} and 2 moles of CH_{3}COO^{-} upon dissociation.

so,   [Zn^{2+}] = 0.234 M and [CH_{3}COO^{-}] = (2\times 0.234)M=0.468M

so, K_{sp}=(0.234)\times (0.468)^{2}=0.0513

GarryVolchara [31]

In light reactions there is successful photosynthesis due to the fact one of the primary reactants for photosynthesis in the first place. At the end of the light reaction, there will be the normal photosynthesis products formed which are glucose and oxygen. For the dark reaction no products will be formed

The arrows in the chart below represent phase transitions. Three bars are shown labeled Solid, Liquid, and Gas. They are connect
tester [92]

Answer:

1,2,3

Explanation:

Heat gain implies that heat is absorbed by the system in order to make the stated phase transition possible.

Before a liquid changes to gas, intermolecular forces in the liquid are broken by energy supplied as heat.

Also, transition from solid to liquid requires energy to break intermolecular bonds.

Finally, sublimation requires input of energy in the form of heat.
