Difference between fluids and nonfluids

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mamont248 [21]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

All liquids are fluids but not all fluids are liquids. Fluids basically describe anything that can flow as a result of a difference in pressure between two points. Liquids on the other hand are a subset of fluids. Liquids are the incompressible fluids. These are the fluids who's density does not change sharply with pressure.

Gases are also fluids, they form the compressible fluids. They do flow as a result of difference in pressure between two points but at the same time they can be compressed or expanded. Their density fluctuates with pressure.

Hence fluids consist of 2 mutually exclusive groups of compressible and incompressible fluids. Liquids are the incompressible fluids and hence form a subset of the more general term fluid.

Nitroglycerin (c3h5n3o9) is a powerful explosive. its decomposition may be represented by 4c3h5n3o9 → 6n2 12co2 10h2o o2 this re
professor190 [17]
The balanced chemical reaction describing this decomposition is as follows:
<span>4c3h5n3o9 .............> 6N2 + 12CO2 +10H2O + O2

From the periodic table:
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of carbon = 12 grams
Therefore:
mass of </span><span>C3H5N3O9 = 3(12) + 5(1) + 3(14) + 9(16) = 227 grams
mass of O2 = 2(16) = 32 grams

From the balanced chemical equation:
4(227) = 908 grams of </span>C3H5N3O9 produce 32 grams of O2. Therefore, to know the amount of oxygen produced from 4.5*10^2 grams <span>C3H5N3O9, all we need to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of oxygen = (4.5*10^2*32) / (908) = 15.859 grams</span>

Iron(II) sulfide reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the reaction:
Inessa [10]
The balanced chemical reaction would be:

FeS(s)+2HCl(aq)→FeCl2(s)+H2S(g) 

We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. We use these amounts. First, we determine the limiting reactant of the reaction. From the data, we can say that FeS is the limiting ad HCl is the excess reactant. We calculate as follows:

Amount of HCl used: 0.240 mol FeS x 2 mol HCl / 1 mol FeS = 0.48 mol HCl

0.646 - 0.48 = 0.166 mol HCl left
