Answer:

Dissolves in water: Acetone, 1-propanol, Methanol

Do not dissolve in water: Hexane, Decane

Explanation:

From the principle that like dissolves like,polar substances will dissolve in polar solutions, while non-polar substances will dissolve in non-polar substances.

Water is a polar solution, therefore, polar substances will dissolve in it.From the given options:

Acetone is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

1-propanol is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

Hexane is a non-polar molecule, therefore, it will not dissolve in water.

Methanol is a polar molecule, therefore, it will dissolve in water.

Decane is a non-polar molecule, therefore, it will not dissolve in water

A 45-g aluminium spoon(specific heat 0.80 / J/gdegree Celsius) at 24 degree celsius is placed in 180 ml(180 grams) of coffee at

Vlad [161]

Explanation:

a) The amount of heat released by coffee will be absorbed by aluminium spoon.

Thus, $heat_{absorbed}=heat_{released}$

To calculate the amount of heat released or absorbed, we use the equation:

$Q=m\times c\times \Delta T=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})$

Also,

$m_1\times c_1\times (T_{final}-T_1)=-[m_2\times c_2\times (T_{final}-T_2)]$ ..........(1)

where,

q = heat absorbed or released

$m_1$ = mass of aluminium = 45 g

$m_2$ = mass of coffee = 180 g

$T_{final}$ = final temperature = ?

$T_1$ = temperature of aluminium = $24^oC$

$T_2$ = temperature of coffee = $85^oC$

$c_1$ = specific heat of aluminium = $0.80J/g^oC$

$c_2$ = specific heat of coffee= $4.186 J/g^oC$

Putting all the values in equation 1, we get:

$45 g\times 0.80J/g^oC\times (T_{final}-24^oC)=-[180 g\times 4.186J/g^oC\times (T_{final}-83^oC)]$

$T_{final}=80.30^oC$

80.30 °C is the final temperature.

b) Energy flows from higher temperature to lower temperature.Whenever two bodies with different energies and temperature come in contact. And the resulting temperature of both bodies will less then the body with high temperature and will be more then the body with lower temperature.

So, is our final temperature of both aluminium and coffee that is 80°C less than initial temperature of coffee and more than the initial temperature of the aluminum.

Write down examples of some natural acids and natural bases. Also write use of them.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Formic acid, citric acid, Oxalic acid, washing soda, baking soda, etc. can be some examples of natural acids and natural bases. They both have domestic, industrial, and various other purposes.

Explanation:

<h3><u>NATURAL ACIDS</u>:</h3>

There are lots of natural acids present in our nature. Some of them are the following:

> <u>Formic acid</u>

USE: It is used in the stimulation of oil and gas wells as it is less reactive towards the metal.

> <u>Citric acid</u>

USE: It is considered as the best rust remover as it doesn't harm the metal just remove the rust.

> <u>Oxalic acid</u>

USE: It easily remove iron and ink stains and that's why it is used as an acid rinsing material in Laundries.

<h3><u>NATURAL BASES</u>:</h3>

There is a variety of natural base found in our nature which founds a lot of uses in day to day life. some of them are the following:

> <u>Washing soda</u>

USE: It is used in commercial detergent mixture to treat hard water.

> <u>Baking soda</u>

USE: It is the best rising agent used mostly in cooking and for domestic purposes like removing stains, etc..
