Diamonds have a density of 3.26 g/mL. What would be the mass of a diamond with a volume

1 answer:

5 0

Density = mass/volume

It follows that mass = density times volume. Thus, the given the density of diamonds being 3.26 g/mL and a volume of a diamond being 0.350 mL, the mass of this diamond would be (3.26 g/mL)(0.350 mL) = 1.14 g.

What is the name of the thermodynamic barrier that must be overcome before products are formed in a spontaneous reaction?

Black_prince [1.1K]

Activation energy is a thermodynamic barrier that must be overcome before products are formed in a reaction. It is the minimum amount of energy needed for a reaction to occur. The energy can be in the form of kinetic or potential energy. This concept was introduced by Svante Arrhenius, which brought about the Arrhenius equation which is a formula used to determine rate of reactions.

When metallic aluminum is added to a solution containing iron(II) sulfate a reaction occurs. What species is being oxidized in t

REY [17]

Answer: Aluminium is getting oxidized in the given chemical reaction.

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom looses its electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets increased during this reaction.

$X\rightarrow X^{n+}+ne^-$

Reduction reaction is defined as the chemical reaction in which an atom gains electrons. The oxidation number of the atom gets reduced during this reaction.

$X^{n+}+ne^-\rightarrow X$

For the given chemical reaction:

$2Al(s)+3FeSO_4(aq.)\rightarrow Al_2(SO_4)_3(aq.)+3Fe(s)$

The half cell reactions for the above reaction follows:

Oxidation half reaction: $Al\rightarrow Al^{3+}+3e^-$

Reduction half reaction: $Fe^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Fe$

As, aluminium is loosing 3 electrons to form aluminium cation. Thus, it is getting oxidized. Iron is gaining 2 electrons to form iron anion. Thus, it is getting reduced.

Hence, the oxidized species of the given reaction is aluminium.

Which type of wires (copper, aluminum, or string) are ferromagnetic metals and why?

nalin [4]

Answer: Copper isn't ferromagnetic,

Aluminum isn't ferromagnetic,

String has a ferromagnetic property

Explanation: first of all it is important to understand that all materials have diamagnetic effect.

From this we can explain two distinct property which is Paramagnetism and Ferromagnetism.

1.What do we understand by a paramagnetic material?

Ans- this describes a material that doesn't retain it's magnetic property even when the magnetic field has been removed, an example is Aluminum.

2. Ferromagnetic materials describes those type of materials that even after the removal of magnetic field retains it's magnetism. A good example of this is Iron, nickel etc.

By definition ferromagnetism is a basic property ( which depends on temperature, crystal Structure, chemical composition, etc.) That gives a material that attraction to magnet's and can form permanent magnet.

So from the examples listed in the question,

1. copper doesn't follow as a ferromagnetic material because it requires so much magnetic field to operate and is so weakly magnetized.

2. We already established aluminium as a paramagnetic material because of its weak ability to retain magnetism in the absence of magnetic field.

3. String because of its component which is (iron+carbon) has the ability to form ferrous metals.
