Why is dissolving important??

1 answer:

4 0

Water is called the "universal solvent" because it is capable of dissolving more substances than any other liquid. This is important to every living thing on earth. It means that wherever water goes, either through the air, the ground, or through our bodies, it takes along valuable chemicals, minerals, and nutrients.

Put the steps of the scientific method into the correct order.

riadik2000 [5.3K]

The scientific method is a systematic way of questioning about the world around us and answering questions. The number of steps varies from one description to another, mainly when data and analysis are separated into separate step, but this is a fairly standard list of 6 scientific method steps, which you are expected to know for any science class:

1. Form a Hypothesis. This is a sort of educated guess about what you expect.
2. Design an Experiment to test your hypothesis. An experiment has an independent and dependent variable. You change or control the independent variable and record the effect it has on the dependent variable.
3. Conduct Experiment
4. Record data and observations and analyze what the data means. Often, you'll prepare a table or graph of the data.
5. Form a Conclusion. Conclude whether to accept or reject your hypothesis. Communicate your results.

Acetylene (C2H2), an important fuel in welding, is produced in the laboratory when calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water: CaC

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

There are 1.287 grams of acetylene collected

Explanation:

Total gas pressure = 909 mmHg

Vapor pressure of water = 20.7 mmHg

Pressure of acetylene = 909 mmHg - 20.7 mmHg = 888.3 mmHg

1mmHg = 1 torr

22 ° C + 273.15 = 295.15 Kelvin

Ideal gas law ⇒ pV = nRT

⇒ with p = pressure of the gas in atm

⇒ with V = volume of the gas in L

⇒ with n = amount of substance of gas ( in moles)

⇒ with R = gas constant, equal to the product of the Boltzmann constant and the Avogadro constant (62.36 L * Torr *K^−1 *mol^−1)

⇒ with T = absolute temperature of the gas (in Kelvin)

888.3 torr * 1.024 L = n * 62.36 L * Torr *K^−1 *mol^−1 * 295.15 K

n = 0.04942 moles of C2H2

Mass of C2H2 = 0.04942 moles x 26.04 g/mole = 1.287 g

There are 1.287 grams of acetylene collected

A potassium bromide solution is 8.30% potassium bromide by mass and its density is 1.03 g/ml. what mass of potassium bromide is

pshichka [43]

Answer: The mass of potassium bromide present in 41.2 mL of solution will be 3.522 grams.

Explanation:

We are given that KBr is present in 8.3% KBr solution, which means that 8.3 grams of potassium bromide is present in 100 gram of the solution.

To calculate the volume of KBr, we use the formula:

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

Mass of the solution = 100 grams

Density of KBr solution = 1.03g/mL

Volume of the solution = ? mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.03g/mL=\frac{100g}{Volume}\\\\Volume=97.08mL$

Now, to calculate the mass of KBr in 41.2mL of the solution, we use unitary method.

In 97.08 mL of solution, mass of KBr present is 8.3 grams.

So, 41.2 mL of solution will contain = $\frac{8.3g}{97.08mL}\times 41.2mL=3.522g$ of KBr.

Hence, the mass of potassium bromide present in 41.2 mL of solution will be 3.522 grams.

Under what conditions does the molar volume of a gas decrease

nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Gases are compressible, meaning that when put under high pressure, the particles are forced closer to one another. This decreases the amount of empty space and reduces the volume of the gas. Gas volume is also affected by temperature. When a gas is heated, its molecules move faster and the gas expands.
