Answer:

Graphite and Diamond are different because they have different structures. ... However each carbon atom in Diamond has 4 covalent bonds with other Carbons, making it extremely strong and hard. On the other hand, each carbon in graphite is bonded to three carbons, and therefore graphite is formed in layer

Also:

Each carbon atom in a diamond is linked to four other carbon atoms. Each carbon atom in graphite is linked to three other carbon atoms. Diamond is poor conductor of electricity due to the absence of free electrons. Graphite is good conductor of electricity due to the presence of free electrons in its structure.

How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O)? For example if th

oee [108]

Given :

Mass of oxygen containing carbon monoxide (CO) is 2.666 gram .

To Find :

How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O) .

Solution :

By law of constant composition , a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio (by mass) and does not depend on its source and method of preparation.

So , volume of solution does not matter .

Moles of oxygen , $n=\dfrac{2.666}{16}=0.167\ mole$ .

Now , molecule of CO contains 1 mole of C .

So , moles of C is also 0.167 mole .

Mass of carbon , $m=12\times 0.167=2\ g$ .

Therefore , mass of carbon is 2 grams .

Hence , this is the required solution .

what is the diffrence between displacement ans double displacement reactions write equations for these reactions

Lina20 [59]

Answer:

Single Displacement reaction

In a displacement reaction, a more reactive element replaces a less reactive element from a compound.

Change in colour takes place with no precipitate forms.

Metals react with the salt solution of another metal.

Examples:

2KI + Cl2 → 2KCl + I2

CuSO4 + Zn → ZnSO4 + Cu

Double displacement reaction

In a double displacement reaction, two atoms or a group of atoms switch places to form new compounds.

Precipitate is formed.

Salt solutions of two different metals react with each other.

Examples:

Na2SO4 + BaCl2 → BaSO4 + 2NaCl

2KBr + BaCl2 → 2KCl + BaBr2

A student is adding DI water to a volumetric flask to make a 50% solution. Unfortunately, he was not paying attention and filled

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

His results will be skewed because there was more water than stock solution. Which would cause the percentage solution to be less than 50% therefore the density would be less than the actual value.

Explanation:

The solution will have percentage less than that of 50%. Therefore the density would be less than the actual value.

Suppose there should be 50 mL of the solution, and he added 60 mL. So 10 mL of the solution is added more.

Suppose the mass of the solute is m.

Originally, the density is = $\frac{m}{50}$ $\left(\frac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\right)$

Now after adding extra 10 mL , the density becomes $\frac{m}{60}$ .

Therefore, $\frac{m}{50}>\frac{m}{60}$

So the density decreases when we add more solution.

A solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl, 25.00 mL) was titrated to completion with 34.55 mL of 0.1020 M sodium hydroxide. What was

kati45 [8]

Answer:

0.1410 M

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

HCl + NaOH —> NaCl + H₂O

From the balanced equation above,

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

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

Next, the data obtained from the question. This include:

Volume of acid, HCl (Va) = 25 mL

Volume of base, NaOH (Vb) = 34.55 mL

Concentration of base, NaOH (Cb) = 0.1020 M

Concentration of acid, HCl (Ca) =?

CaVa / CbVb = nA/nB

Ca × 25 / 0.1020 × 34.55 = 1/1

Ca × 25 / 3.5241 = 1/1

Cross multiply

Ca × 25 = 3.5241 × 1

Ca × 25 = 3.5241

Divide both side by 25

Ca = 3.5241 / 25

Ca = 0.1410 M

Therefore, the concentration of the acid, HCl is 0.1410 M
