If liquids are liquids because they take the shape of their container, why isn't salt considered a liquid?

Salt isnt considered a liquid because salt is somewhat solid. A liquid only becomes solid when it is frozen.

Because a liquid has no definite shape but has a definite volume it can take the shape of its container. Salt is considered crystalline solid.


Hope this helps ;-) <span />

Construct an argument for or against the immediate introduction of fuel-cell cars. Include likely points of objection from those
ryzh [129]

Answer:

Explanation:

Fuel Cell Cars are the vehicles built to run on hydrogen gas rather than running on the hydrocarbon.

Hydrocarbons are the organic compounds which are derived mostly from the crude oil. They are usually composed of Hydrogen and Carbon.

Fuel cell cars are much more better than the regular vehicles running on hydrocarbon in so many ways especially environmentally.

Listed below are some of the advantages of fuel cell cars over the regular vehicles

Fuel cells have a higher efficiency than diesel or gas engines.

Most fuel cells operate silently, compared to internal combustion engines. They are therefore ideally suited for use within buildings such as hospitals.

Fuel cells can eliminate pollution caused by burning fossil fuels; for hydrogen fuelled fuel cells, the only by-product at point of use is water.

If the hydrogen comes from the electrolysis of water driven by renewable energy, then using fuel cells eliminates greenhouse gases over the whole cycle.

Fuel cells do not need conventional fuels such as oil or gas and can therefore reduce economic dependence on oil producing countries, creating greater energy security for the user nation.

Since hydrogen can be produced anywhere where there is water and a source of power, generation of fuel can be distributed and does not have to be grid-dependent.

The use of stationary fuel cells to generate power at the point of use allows for a decentralised power grid that is potentially more stable.

the quantity of antimony in an ore can be determined by an oxidation-reduction titration with an oxidizing agent. The ore is dis
Basile [38]

Answer:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 3H₂O(l)

Explanation:

At a redox equation, one substance is being oxidized (losing electrons), and the other is being reduced (gaining electrons). In the given reaction:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + Sb³⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + Sb⁵⁺(aq)

When it's at an acidic solution, it must be ions H⁺ on the reactant, which will form water with the oxygen, so the complete reaction is:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + Sb³⁺(aq) + H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + Sb⁵⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

As we can see, the antimony is being oxidized (go from +3 to +5), and the Bromo is being reduced. The oxidation number of brome in the reactant, knowing that the oxidation number of O is -2, is:

x + 3*(-2) = -1

x = +5

So, it's going from +5 to -1, and the half-reactions are:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 6e⁻ → Br⁻(aq)

Sb³⁺(aq) → Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 2e⁻

The number of electrons must be the same, so the second equation must be multiplied by 3:

3Sb³⁺(aq) → 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 6e⁻

Thus, the equation will be:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + H₂O(l)

Now, we verify the amount of the elements, which must be equal on both sides. So, we multiply H₂O by 3, and H⁺ by 6, and the balanced reaction will be:

BrO₃⁻(aq) + 3Sb³⁺(aq) + 6H⁺(aq) → Br⁻(aq) + 3Sb⁵⁺(aq) + 3H₂O(l)
