Carbon has the right electronic bonding pattern for supporting large chains, and thus the compounds necessary for life.
Answer:
The time taken for the cross mark to disappear decreases steadily down the column.
Explanation:
Now if we look at the data provided, we will discover that the volume of the HCl was held constant while the volume of the thiosulphate was increased steadily and the volume of water decreased steadily.
Recall that a system is more concentrated when it contains less volume of water and more volume of reactants. Hence as the volume of water in the system is being reduced, the concentration of reactants is increased.
It has been established that an increase in the concentration of reactants lead to an increase in the rate of reaction. The disappearance of the cross shows the completion of the reaction between HCl and thiosulphate. The faster or slower the cross disappears, the faster or slower the rate of reaction.
Since increase in concentration of reactants increases the rate of reaction, it is observed that as the volume of the thiosulphate increases (reactant concentration increases) the cross disappears faster (rate of reactant increases). Hence as the volume of thiosulphate increases, it takes a shorter time for the cross to disappear. This implies that the time column in the table (refer to the question) will decrease steadily as the volume of thiosulphate increases.
Answer:
a) 727.5 kJ
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Mass of the piece of copper = 6.22 kg
Initial temperature of the copper = 20.5 °C
Final temperature of the copper = 324.3 °C
Specific heat of copper = 0.385 J/g°C
Step 2:
Q = m*c*ΔT
⇒ with Q = heat transfer (in J)
⇒ with m = the mass of the object (in grams) = 6220 grams
⇒ with c = the specific heat capacity = 0.385 J/g°C
⇒ with ΔT = T2 -T1 = 324.3 - 20.5 = 303.8
Q = 6220 grams * 0.385 J/g°C * 303.8 °C
Q = 727509.9 J = 727.5 kJ
b) This heat capacity is the heat capacity given for a copper at a temperature of 25°C
Answer:
As you move across a period the electrons are being added to the same shell. But, protons are being added as well. This makes the nucleus more positively charged and, increasing protons has a greater effect than electrons. So, there is a greater nuclear attraction and, because the electrons are being added to the same shell that shell gets pulled in more. This causes a decrease in atomic radius.
Explanation:
Coefficients need to be changed while balancing a chemical reaction beacuse subscript show how the molecule exists in nature
