Energy 1:Question 3

Chemistry

Answer: The statement, atoms in the sand were moving more quickly best describes why the  temperature of the sand increased.

Explanation:

As Sun rises in the morning everyday and the heat energy radiations given by the Sun falls on a number of objects on our surroundings. As a result, the objects absorb this heat energy till afternoon due to which they become hot.

Hence, atoms of the objects gain kinetic energy due to which they move quickly. This shows that the temperature of the object (sand here) increases.

When Maria walked in the same area in the afternoon, the sand was hot as its particles have gained kinetic energy due to which they move rapidly from one place to another. Hence, sand feels more hot in the afternoon in the same area where she walked.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement the atoms in the sand were moving more quickly best describes why the  temperature of the sand increased.

An aqueous solution is 0.467 m in hcl. what is the molality of the solution if the density is 1.23 g/ml?
Reika [66]
Answer:
molarity = 0.385 moles/kg

Explanation:
Assume that the volume of the aqueous solution given is 1 liter = 1000 ml
Now, density can be calculated using the following rule:
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume = 1.23 * 1000 = 1230 grams
Now, 0.467 m/L * 1L = 0.467 moles of HCl
We will get the mass of the 0.467 moles of HCl as follows:
mass = molar mass * number of moles = (1+35.5)*0.467 = 17.0455 grams
Now, we have the mass of the solution (water + HCl) calculated as 1230 grams and the mass of the HCl calculated as 17.0455 grams. We can use this information to get the mass of water as follows:
mass of water = 1230 - 17.0455 = 1212.9545 grams
Finally, we will get the molarity as follows:
molarity = number of moles of solute / kg of solution
molarity = (0.467) / (1212.9594*10^-3)
molarity = 0.385 mole/kg 

Hope this helps :)

synergistic interlayer and defect engineering in vs2 nanosheets toward efficient electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction
Sever21 [200]

It is stated that VS2 nanosheets with abundant defects and an extended (001) interlayer spacing as large as 1.00 nm, which is a 74% expansion as compared to that (0.575 nm) of the pristine counterpart, may be produced using a straightforward one-pot solvothermal process.

For the electrocatalytic hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), the interlayer expanded VS2 nanosheets display exceptional kinetic metrics, including a low overpotential of 43 mV at a geometric current density of 10 mA cm2, a small Tafel slope of 36 mV dec1, and long-term stability of 60 h without any current fading. The performance is even comparable to that of the commercial Pt/C electrocatalyst and significantly better than that of the pure VS2 with a typical interlayer gap.

which of the following statements is not true about double replacement reactions? a. product may precipitate from solution b. pr
Sever21 [200]
The correct option is D.
In a double replacement reaction, one of the reactant can not be a solid metal, this is because, double replacement reaction takes place between two compounds which possess ions. During the reaction, the positive and the negative ions of the reactants will switch places, thus forming new compounds. This means that, each of the reactant must have a charge and a solid metal can not have a charge.
