Which of the following is an example of chemical weathering?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Nonamiya [84]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:O B. Weak acid breaks down minerals by reacting with them.

Explanation:

Chemical weathering is the process whereby rain water which sometimes can be acidic ( As rain falls down it reacts with CO2 in the atmosphere and form acid rain), This  reacts  with the minerals contained in rocks, dissolves and degrades  them further to form entire  new minerals.

An example of a rock that is greatly affected by overexposure of  acid rain is  limestone containing calcite  which easily degrades by acid rain.

Other processes whereby Chemical weathering can occur are through reaction with water and oxygen.

D. Lewis base

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

3. HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)

Here underlined is C_2H_5NH_2

A. Brønsted-Lowry acid

B. Brønsted-Lowry base

C. Lewis acid

D. Lewis base

Answer: 1. Brønsted-Lowry acid

2. Lewis base

3. Brønsted-Lowry base

Explanation:

According to the Bronsted Lowry conjugate acid-base theory, an acid is defined as a substance which donates protons and a base is defined as a substance which accepts protons.

According to the Lewis concept, an acid is defined as a substance that accepts electron pairs and base is defined as a substance which donates electron pairs.

1.  HCH_3CO_2(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow CH_3CO^{2-}(aq)+NH_4^+aq)

As HCH_3CO_2(aq) is donating a proton , it acts as a bronsted acid.

2. BH_3(aq)+NH_3(aq)\rightarrow BH_3NH_3(aq)

As NH_3 contains a lone pair of electron on nitrogen , it can easily donate electrons to BH_3 and act as lewi base.

3.  HNO_2(aq)+C_2H_5NH_2(aq)\rightarrow NO_2^-(aq) + C_2H_5NH_3^+(aq)

As C_2H_5NH_2(aq) is accepting a proton , it acts as a bronsted base.

What is the pressure in a 245 L tank that contains 5.21 kg of helium at 27 Celsius ​
Kitty [74]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

(These are not rounded to the correct decimal)

130.94 atm

13,266.6 kPa

99,571.4 mmHg

<h2><u>Explanation:</u></h2>

<u></u>

PV = nRT

V = 245L

P = ?

R = 0.08206 (atm) , 8.314 (kPa) , 62.4 (mmHg)

T = 273.15 + 27 = 300.15K

n = 1302.5 moles

How I found (n).

5.21kg x 1000g/1kg x 1 mole/4.0g = 1302.5 moles

Now, plug all the numbers into the equation.

Pressure in atm = (1302.5)(0.08206)(300.15) / 245 = 130.94 atm (not rounded to the correct decimal)

Pressure in kPa = (1302.5)(8.314)(300.15) / 245 = 13,266.6 kPa (not rounded to the correct decimal)

Pressure in mmHg = (1302.5)(62.4)(300.15) / 245 = 99,571.4 mmHg (not rounded to the correct decimal)

A ball-and-stick model of a molecule of formaldehyde, ch2o, is made from the following components: what do the sticks represent?
9966 [12]

In chemistry, the ball-and-stick model is a molecular ideal of a chemical matter which is to expose both the three-dimensional position of the atoms and the bonds among them. The atoms are normally symbolise by spheres, join by rods which shows the bonds.

Formaldehyde forms formaldehyde structure bond it shares double bond with O2 atoms.

Formaldehyde also known as methanol .

Methanol is colourless.

It is flammable.

It is gas at room temperature.

Methanol having pungent odor and it is a volatile organic compounds.

It is made by the composition of Hydrogen, oxygen, and carbons.

How much heat is given off when 869 g iron bar cools from 94 degrees celsius to 5
melomori [17]

Answer:

Heat given off was -34.34kJ

Explanation:

Mass of iron bar = 869g

Initial temperature (T1) = 94°C

Final temperature (T2) = 5°C

Specific heat capacity of iron (c) = 0.444J/g°C

Heat energy (Q) = Mc∇T

Q = heat energy

c = specific heat capacity

∇T = change in temperature

M = mass of the substance

Q = mc∇T

∇T = T2 - T1

Q = Mc(T2 -T1)

Q = 869 * 0.444 * (5 - 94)

Q = 385.836 * -89

Q = -34339.404J

Q = -34.34kJ

The heat given of was -34.34kJ

How can you differentiate the Atomic Structure and the Bohr Model? In other words, how is the Atomic Structure different from th
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Bohr thought that electrons orbited the nucleus in circular paths; whereas in the modern view atomic electron structure is more like 3D standing waves. Bohr built upon Rutherford's model of the atom. ... He believed that electrons moved around the nucleus in circular orbits with quantised potential and kinetic energies.
