Why does buck ministerfullerene act as a good lubricant

Chemistry
2 answers:
MakcuM [25]3 years ago

Answer:

Its molecules are made up of 60 carbon atoms joined together by strong covalent bonds. Molecules of C 60 are spherical. There are weak intermolecular forces between molecules of buckminsterfullerene. These need little energy to overcome, so buckminsterfullerene is slippery and has a low melting point.

Oksanka [162]

Complete Question

A sample of aluminum, which has a specific heat capacity of 0.897 JB loc ! is put into a calorimeter (see sketch at right) that contains 200.0 g of water. The aluminum sample starts off at 85.6 °C and the temperature of the water starts off at 16.0 °C. When the temperature of the water stops changing it's 20.1 °C. The pressure remains constant at 1 atm. Calculate the mass of the aluminum sample.

Answer:

M=58g

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Heat Capacity H=0.897

Mass of water M=200g

Initial Temperature of Aluminium T_a=85.6

Initial Temperature of Water T_{w1}=16.0

Final Temperature of Water  T_{w2}=16.0

Generally

Heat loss=Heat Gain

Therefore

M*0.897*(85.6-20.1) =200*4.184*(20.1-16)

M=58g

How is the oxidation state of a transition metal determined from the chemical formula ?
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.

We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.

The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.

To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:

  • The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
  • The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to  the charge on the ion.

For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻

This would be:  2x + 7(-2) = -2

                          x = +6

We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.

Which statement describes an Arrhenius acid? A. It is a proton donor. B. It is a proton acceptor. C. It produces hydroxide ions
Katen [24]
Hello.

The answer is: D it produces hyrogen ions in a solution.

This is correct because when Arrhenius acid it turns into hydrogen ions.substance as an acid if it produces hydrogen ions H(+) or hydronium ions in water. A substance is classified as a base if it produces hydroxide ions OH(-) in water.
