In equal-arm balances from the early twentieth century, it is sometimes observed that an aluminum sheet hangs from one of the ar

ms and passes between the poles of a magnet. This causes the oscillations of the equal-arm balance to decay rapidly. In the absence of such magnetic braking, the oscillation might continue for a very long time, so that the experimenter would have to wait to take a reading. The oscillations decay because which of the following reasons? A. Aluminum is paramagnetic. B. Currents in the aluminum sheet set up a magnetic field that opposes the oscillations. C. The aluminum sheet is attracted to the magnet.

Answer:

Currents in the aluminum sheet set up a magnetic field that opposes the oscillations

Explanation:

It has been stated in the question that the aluminum sheet hangs from one of the arms and passes between the poles of the magnet and causes the magnetic field to decay rapidly. In the absence of this magnetic breaking, the oscillation may continue for a long time.

As the aluminum hangs from one of the sheets and passes between the poles of the magnet, the magnetic flux linked to the sheet changes and emf is induced in the sheet according to Lenz law. As a result of this induced emf, eddy currents are developed on the plate. The Eddy currents opposes the magnetic force on the aluminum sheets. This opposes the oscillation of the aluminum sheet and causes it to come to rest.

In the titration of 50. 0 mL of 0. 400 M HCOOH with 0. 150 M LiOH, how many mL of LiOH are required to reach the equivalence poi
mart [117]

The volume of the 0.15 M LiOH solution required to react with 50 mL of 0.4 M HCOOH to the equivalence point is 133.3 mL

<h3>Balanced equation </h3>

HCOOH + LiOH —> HCOOLi + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

The mole ratio of the acid, HCOOH (nA) = 1

The mole ratio of the base, LiOH (nB) = 1

<h3>How to determine the volume of LiOH </h3>
  • Molarity of acid, HCOOH (Ma) = 0.4 M
  • Volume of acid, HCOOH (Va) = 50 mL
  • Molarity of base, LiOH (Mb) = 0.15 M
  • Volume of base, LiOH (Vb) =?

MaVa / MbVb = nA / nB

(0.4 × 50) / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

20 / (0.15 × Vb) = 1

Cross multiply

0.15 × Vb = 20

Divide both side by 0.15

Vb = 20 / 0.15

Vb = 133.3 mL

Thus, the volume of the LiOH solution needed is 133.3 mL

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Water is an essential part of life and its availability is important for all living creatures. On the other side, the world is suffering from a major problem of drinking water. There are several gases, microorganisms and other toxins (chemicals and heavy metals) added into water during rain, flowing water, etc. which is responsible for water pollution. This review article describes various applications of nanomaterial in removing different types of impurities from polluted water. There are various kinds of nanomaterials, which carried huge potential to treat polluted water (containing metal toxin substance, different organic and inorganic impurities) very effectively due to their unique properties like greater surface area, able to work at low concentration, etc. The nanostructured catalytic membranes, nanosorbents and nanophotocatalyst based approaches to remove pollutants from wastewater are eco-friendly and efficient, but they require more energy, more investment in order to purify the wastewater. There are many challenges and issues of wastewater treatment. Some precautions are also required to keep away from ecological and health issues. New modern equipment for wastewater treatment should be flexible, low cost and efficient for the commercialization purpose.

san4es73 [151]

Answer:

                    1.8 moles of O₂

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation for said double replacement (photosynthesis) reaction is as follow;

                           6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

According to balance chemical equation,

                 6 moles of O₂ are produced by  =  6 moles of CO₂

So,

                1.8 moles of O₂ will be produced by  =  X moles of O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  1.8 mol × 6 mol / 6 mol

                     X =  1.8 moles of O₂

Stoichiometric problems in which moles are given and moles or other reactant or product asked are the simplest problems. One should only write the balanced chemical equation and perform above method to find the required moles.
