Answer: 5.4

Explanation: The Law of Impenetrability says that two objects can't occupy the same space at the same time; therefore, the pennies and the water can't occupy the same space at the same time. Without the pennies the water level read 20.6 mL, dropping in the pennies gives a level of 26.0.

How many grams of silver chloride are produced from 5.0g of silver nitrate reacting with an excess of
Sav [38]

Answer:

4.21 g of AgCl

3.06 g of BaCl₂ will be needed to complete the reaction

Explanation:

The first step is to determine the reaction.

Reactants: BaCl₂ and AgNO₃

The products will be the silver chloride (AgCl) and the Ba(NO₃)₂

The reaction is: BaCl₂(aq) + 2AgNO₃(aq) → 2AgCl(s) ↓ + Ba(NO₃)₂ (aq)

We determine the silver nitrate moles: 5 g . 1mol / 169.87 g = 0.0294 moles. Now, according to stoichiometry, we know that ratio is 2:2-

2 moles of nitrate can produce 2 moles of chloride, so the 0.0294 moles of silver nitrate, will produce the same amount of chloride.

We convert the moles to mass → 143.32 g / mol . 0.0294 mol = 4.21 g of AgCl.

Now, we consider the BaCl₂.

2 moles of nitrate can react to 1 mol of barium chloride

Then, 0.0294 moles of silver nitrate will react to (0.0294 . 1) /2 = 0.0147 moles. We convert the moles to mass:

0.0147 mol . 208.23 g /1mol = 3.06 g of BaCl₂

When making a solution of sodium hydroxide and water, a student weighed out an certain amount of sodium hydroxide pellets and di
Mariulka [41]

Hygroscopic nature of NaOH is the main reason for the lower concentration of the sodium hydroxide in the solution.

<u>Explanation:</u>

  • It is a well known fact that Sodium hydroxide pellets are hygroscopic in nature, which clearly means that the sodium hydroxide pellets absorbs moisture from the air, so that it becomes deliquescent.
  • When the NaOH crystals are weighed, the crystals absorb moisture from the surroundings, and so the weight of the crystals may change, so the concentration of the solution was lower than the required one.So it is not possible to prepare NaOH solution under normal room temperature.
  • So, while preparing the solution of NaOH we have to be more careful.

How many independent variables should you have in an experiment?
stepladder [879]

Answer:

One independent variable

Explanation:

The other variables are called controlled variables because the experiment is designed to keep them at an unchanging value, known as "controlling" a variable. A valid experiment should have only one independent variable.

How does the density of air affect local weather patterns?
JulijaS [17]
When winds move air masses, they carry their weather conditions (heat or cold, dry or moist) from the source region to a new region. When the air mass reaches a new region, it might clash with another air mass that has a different temperature and humidity. This can create a severe storm.
