Answer: The Mohs Hardness Scale is used as a convenient way to help identify minerals. A mineral's hardness is a measure of its relative resistance to scratching, measured by scratching the mineral against another substance of known hardness on the Mohs Hardness Scale.

Explanation: Hope this helped! :)

Tom. The ‘T’ should be in capital. Every sentence should end with a full stop ‘.’ . This also has nothing to do with Chemistry. So yeah. Mark me brainliest please.

Answer:

The correct answer is

B.

\Delta H=2(1072)+498 -4(799)

Explanation:

Enthalpy of reaction :

It is the amount of energy released/absorbed when one mole of the substance is formed from the reactant at a constant pressure.

The enthalpy of a reaction can be calculated using :

\Delta H=\Delta H_{reactants}-\Delta H_{products}

2CO+O_{2}\rightarrow 2CO_{2}

\Delta H_{reactants}=2(C\equiv O)+O=O

\Delta H_{reactants}=2(1072)+498

H_{products}=2(2\times C=O)

H_{products}=4\times 799

\Delta H=\Delta H_{reactants}-\Delta H_{products}

\Delta H=2(1072)+498 -4(799)

units = \frac{kJ}{mole}

Please note that :

The carbon monoxide , CO should be taken as C triple bond O. Not C=O .

So , the bond energy =1072 is used

\Delta H=2(1072)+498 -4(799)

nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

K₂Cr₂O₇(s) ⇒ 2 K⁺(aq) + Cr₂O₇²⁻(aq)

Explanation:

Potassium dichromate (K₂Cr₂O₇) is a strong electrolyte, that is, when dissolved in water (the medium), it dissociates in cation potassium (K⁺) and anion dichromate (Cr₂O₇²⁻). The balanced dissociation equation is:

K₂Cr₂O₇(s) ⇒ 2 K⁺(aq) + Cr₂O₇²⁻(aq)

Energy in Devices. An engineer needs to design a device that transforms light energy into sound energy. Describe a design for a
N76 [4]

Answer:

built a special cavity where the electromagnetic quantum states resonate with the natural vibrations of the atoms. In doing so, one cancouple a photon-based oscillator to a mechanical oscillator, controlling the mechanical quantum states with visible light. The result is a prototype of a quantum transducer, a device that converts light energy into mechanical energy (sound energy)

Explanation:

Sound energy is created by vibrating particles of medium that propagates as a wave. So in order to convert light (electromagnetic wave) to sound wave it has to be converted into electric or magnetic signals. Then these signals can be converted into sound waves.

However, if you consider the particle nature of light. It contains momentum and after collision sets the other particles into oscillatory motion but the wavelength of these vibrations is too high to be considered as sound waves.
