Answer:

iron oxide. aka. oxygen

Explanation:

Rust is the result of a chemical reaction between iron and oxygen, otherwise known as iron oxide. Since steel wool -- and steel in general -- is largely made of iron, steel wool is prone to rust if it doesn't have a rustproof coating on it. The actual reaction that creates rust happens when two iron atoms mix with three oxygen atoms in water; the oxygen bonds to the metal, and a new compound is formed.

Which occurs whenever valence electrons are shared or transferred between atoms?

Tanzania [10]

Whenever electrons are shared or transferred between atoms there is a chemical reaction.

The electrons that are being transferred between atoms (two or more) create new bonds, which enable the production of a new substance. This process is then known as a chemical reaction.

The vapor pressure of water at 65oC is 187.54 mmHg. What is the vapor pressure of a ethylene glycol (CH2(OH)CH2(OH)) solution ma

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

173.83 mmHg is the vapor pressure of a ethylene glycol solution.

Explanation:

Vapor pressure of water at 65 °C= $p_o= 187.54 mmHg$

Vapor pressure of the solution at 65 °C= $p_s$

The relative lowering of vapor pressure of solution in which non volatile solute is dissolved is equal to mole fraction of solute in the solution.

Mass of ethylene glycol = 22.37 g

Mass of water in a solution = 82.21 g

Moles of water= $n_1=\frac{82.21 g}{18 g/mol}=4.5672 mol$

Moles of ethylene glycol= $n_2=\frac{22.37 g}{62.07 g/mol}=0.3603 mol$

$\frac{p_o-p_s}{p_o}=\frac{n_2}{n_1+n_2}$

$\frac{187.54 mmHg-p_s}{187.54 mmHg}=\frac{0.3603 mol}{0.3603 mol+4.5672 mol}$

$p_s=173.83 mmHg$

173.83 mmHg is the vapor pressure of a ethylene glycol solution.

How can constraints be used to help define the problem?

vitfil [10]

Answer:

Constraints are restrictions that need to be placed upon variables

Explanation:

Constraints are restrictions (limitations, boundaries) that need to be placed upon variables used in equations that model real-world situations. It is possible that certain solutions which make an equation true mathematically, may not make any sense in the context of a real-world word problem.
