The ratio of zinc to copper in some alloy is 2 to 5. If 60 kilograms of zinc are used, how many kilograms of copper are needed t

Answer:

The correct answer is 150 kilograms.

Explanation:

Based on the given information, the ratio of zinc and copper within the alloy is 2:5. The amount of zinc used in the alloy is 60 kg. Now the amount of copper used within the alloy would be,

Zinc/Copper = 2/5

60/Copper = 2/5

Copper(Cu) = 60*5/2

Cu = 150 Kilograms.

Thus, the amount of Cu used in the alloy is 150 Kg.

Solids have:<br> fixed shape<br> O A and B<br> fixed size<br> neither A nor B
Lemur [1.5K]

<u>Answer:</u>

<em>B. A and B</em>

<em></em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

1. Solids have a definite volume, definite size and definite shape

2. The particles present in a solid are very closely packed since the intermolecular forces between them are very strong. The molecules do not move apart.

3. Melting point is the temperature at which solid changes into a liquid.

4. When a solid is heated to the melting point the intermolecular forces are overcome by the energy and the molecules present in it moves from its fixed position to take its liquid state which is called as melting.

The law of conversion states that mass is never created or destroyed. Explain how this law requires all chemical equations to be
ikadub [295]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter as applied to chemical reactions says that matter is neither created nor distroyed, only changed in form. This implies that the mass of substances going into a reaction process must equal the mass of products generated during the reaction process.

Empirically,

∑ mass reactants = ∑ mass products

One can test this idea after balancing a chemical equation by determining the sum of formula weights of reactants and products; then compare. If reaction was properly balanced, the total mass reactants = total mass of products.

Example:

Combustion of Methane =>  CH₄(g) + 2O₂(g)   =>  CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)

Equation Weights =>             16amu + 64amu <=> 44amu +  36amu

Mass Reactants = Mass Products  => 80amu <=> 80amu.

*amu = atomic mass units => sum of atomic weights of elements

How much energy is required to change the temperature of 35.0 g of Lead
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Q = 270 Joules (2 sig. figs. as based on temperature change.)

Explanation:

Heat Transfer Equation of pure condensed phase substance => Q = mcΔT

Mixed phase (s ⇄ l melting/freezing, or l ⇄ g boiling/condensation) heat transfer equation => Q = m∙ΔHₓ; ΔHₓ = phase transition constant

Since this is a pure condensed phase (or, single phase) form of lead (Pb°(s)) and not melting/freezing or boiling/condensation, one should use

Q = m·c·ΔT

m = mass of lead = 35.0g

c = specific heat of lead = 0.16J/g°C

ΔT = Temp change = 74°C - 25°C = 49°C

Q = (35.0g)(0.16J/g·°C )(49°C) = 274.4 Joules ≅ 270 Joules (2 sig. figs. as based on temperature change.)

How many milliliters of 0.02 M HCl are needed to react completely with 100 mL of 0.01 M NaOH?
serious [3.7K]
The reaction of HCl and NaOH is HCl + NaOH = NaCl + H2O. So the mole number of HCl and NaOH is equal. So the volume of HCl =0.01*0.1/0.02=0.05 L =50 ml. So the answer is D).

How is copper sulphate different to copper sulphide in terms of the elments it contains
son4ous [18]

Answer:

An Element is a substance made up of only one type of atom as like gold, copper, oxygen, etc.

Copper sulphate with molecular formula (CuSO_4), the elements are copper, sulphur and oxygen. It is formed by combination of Cu^{2+} cation and SO_4^{2-} anion.

Copper sulphide with molecular formula (CuS), the elements are copper and sulphur. It is formed by combination of Cu^{2+} cation and S^{2-} anion.
