You are a researcher for a golf club manufacturer. You are given two identical looking cubes of a metal alloy. You are informed

that they are made of the exact same material, but one is a crystalline, while the other is amorphous. It is your job to determine which one is amorphous because this one is more stress-resistant and is useful in reinforcing golf clubs. Which of the following is the best way to determine which is which?
A. Determine the density of each cube. The more dense one is the amorphous solid.

B. Determine the density of each cube. The less dense cube is the amorphous solid.

C. Melt both cubes and look for a broader range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a broader range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

D. Melt both cubes and measure the range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a narrower range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

Answer:

C.Melt both cubes and look for a broader range of melting temperatures. The one that melts over a broader range of temperatures is the amorphous solid.

Explanation:

Amorphous solids is one that do not have a fixed melting points but melt over a wide range of temperature due to the irregular shape hence its name. Contrariwise crystalline solids, have a fixed and sharp melting point.

This comes in handy to solve the riddle. We can characterise the pair with the melting point property.

In preparation of aspirin why is water added
mafiozo [28]
The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid.

However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction.

You have a 250. -ml sample of 1. 28 m acetic acid (ka = 1. 8 x´ 10–5). calculate the ph of the best buffer.
Nadya [2.5K]

The ph of the best buffer is 4.74

The given acetic acid is a weak acid

The equation of the pH of the buffer

pH = pKa + log ( conjugate base / weak acid ).

For best buffer the concentration of the weak acid and its conjugate base is equal.

pH = pKa + log 1

pH = pKa + 0

pH = pKa

given Ka = 1.8 × 10⁻⁵

pKa = - log ka

pH = -log ( 1.8 × 10⁻⁵ )

pH = 4. 74

Hence the pH of the best buffer is 4.74

The frequency of an x-ray wave is 3.0 x 1012MHz. Its wave speed is 3.0x 108m/s. Calculate the wavelength of the x-ray wave below
jasenka [17]

Answer: The wavelength of the x-ray wave is 10^{-10}m

Explanation:

To calculate the wavelength of light, we use the equation:

\lambda=\frac{c}{\nu}

where,

\lambda = wavelength of the light  = ?

c = speed of x-ray= 3.0\times 10^8m/s

\nu = frequency of x-ray = 3.0\times 10^{12}MHz=3.0\times 10^{18}Hz= 3.0\times 10^{18}s^{-1}     (1Hz=1s^{-1})

Putting in the values:

\lambda=\frac{3.0\times 10^8m/s}{3.0\times 10^{18}s^{-1}}=10^{-10}m

Thus the wavelength of the x-ray wave is 10^{-10}m

If 1.8 L of water is added to 2.5 L of a 7.0 M KOH solution, what is the molarity of the new solution?
e-lub [12.9K]
Molarity= (number of moles of that substance) / (Volume of solution in litres)

7= (number of moles of HCl) / 0.05

Thus,

Number of moles of HCl = 7 x 0.05 = 0.35

The number of moles of HCl will remain unchanged.

Now, for new solution,

0.35= 0.35 / (New volume of solution in litres)

Thus,

New volume = 1 litre

Thus, amount of water added = 1- 0.05 litre = 5.0 M
