Answer: The author used the word "conversely" because the first statement he made is in CONTRAST to the second statement he made.
Explanation:
Matter is made up of atoms or molecules that are in constant motion. The motion of these tiny particles ( molecules) gives the object energy. The movement of these molecules depends on the state of matter which includes
--> GASEOUS STATE: Here, the particles are completely free to move and are always in motion.
--> LIQUID STATE: particles in this state slide by one another and are always in motion.
--> SOLID STATE: particles in this state are held tightly together but are always in motion.
Also, the molecules in motion are greatly affected by temperature changes. Increase in temperature will cause the particles in the liquid to move faster. Such is seen when soup is heated, the molecules travel faster than before. But the OPPOSITE is seen in an ice cube. This is because the ice cube is in solid state and of a lower temperature.
Answer:
72.67g of B
Explanation:
The reaction of B₂O₃ to produce boron (B), is:
B₂O₃ → 3/2O₂ + 2B
<em>That means B₂O₃ produce 2 moles of boron</em>
Molar mass of B₂O₃ is 69.62g/mol. 234g of B₂O₃ contains:
234g B₂O₃ ₓ (1mol / 69.62g) = 3.361 moles of B₂O₃.
As 1 mole of B₂O₃ produce 2 moles of B, Moles of B that can be produced from B₂O₃ is:
3.361mol B₂O₃ ₓ 2 = <em>6.722 moles of B</em>.
As molar mass of B is 10.811g/mol. Thus mass of B that can be produced is:
6.722mol B ₓ (10.811g / mol) = <em>72.67g of B</em>
