Answer:

Oxidation

Explanation:

Mg loses 2e- for it to gain it's stability hence the reaction above is oxidation

note: Oxidation is the loss of electrons while reduction is the gain of electrons

A chunk of tin weighing 18.5 grams and originally at 97.38 °C is dropped into an insulated cup containing 75.7 grams of water at

balandron [24]

Answer:

The final temperature of the water is 22.44°C.

Explanation:

Heat lost by tin will be equal to heat gained by the water

$-q_1=q_2$

Mass of tin = $m_1=18.5 g$

Specific heat capacity of tin = $c_1=0.21 J/g^oC$

Initial temperature of the tin = $T_1=97.38^oC$

Final temperature = $T_2$ =T

$q_1=m_1c_1\times (T-T_1)$

Mass of water= $m_2=75.7 g$

Specific heat capacity of water= $c_2=4.184 J/g^oC$

Initial temperature of the water = $T_3=21.52^oC$

Final temperature of water = $T_2$ =T

$q_2=m_2c_2\times (T-T_3)$

$-q_1=q_2$ (Law of Conservation of energy)

$-(m_1\times c_1\times (T-T_1))=m_2\times c_2\times (T-T_3)$

On substituting all values:

$-(18.5 g\times 0.21 J/g^oC\times (T-97.38^oC))=75.7 g\times 4.184 J/g^oC\times (T-21.52 ^oC)$

we get, T = 22.44°C

The final temperature of the water is 22.44°C.

In November 1987, a massive iceberg broke loose from the antartic ice mass and floated free in the ocean. The chunk of ice was e

il63 [147K]

<h2>Answer:</h2>

1.58 × 10∧16 pools.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Given:

Length of ice berg= 98 miles = 1557716 meters

Width of iceberg = 25 miles = 40233.6 meters

Thickness of iceberg = 750 ft = 230 meters

Volume of water in a swimming pool = 24,000 gallons = 90850 liters

The volume of the ice berg:

Volume = Length . width . thickness

Volume = 1557716 . 40233.6 . 230 = 1,441, 468, 016, 5248 m3 = 1,441, 468, 016, 5248 × 10 ∧3 L.

1 pool contains liters of water: 90850 liters

1,441, 468, 016, 5248 × 10 ∧3 liters contains = 1/90850 . 1,441, 468, 016, 524.8 × 10 ∧3 .

= 1.100 . 1,441, 468, 016, 5248 × 10 ∧3 L.

= 1.58 × 10∧16 pools.

Hence 1.6 × 10∧16 pools will be filled with that chunk of ice.

Grignard reagents are air-and moisture-sensitive. List at least threereactants, solvents, and/or techniques that were utilized i

Evgesh-ka [11]

<h2>Diethylether (DTH) andTetrahydrofuran (THF).</h2>

Explanation:

Grignard reactions reacts with water forming alkanes.
The water present causes the reagent to decompose rapidly.

So, the solvents which are utilized in the experimental procedure to minimize exposure of the grignard reagents to air and/ormoisture are solvents such as anhydrous diethyl ether or tetrahydrofuran(THF), poly(tetramethylene ether) glycol (PTMG).

The reason for the use of these solvents is the oxygen present in these solvents stabilizes the magnesium reagent.

THF (Tetrahydrofuran) is a stable compound.

Which is a spectator ion in the reaction between these two solutions babr2 + na2so4?

Greeley [361]

Spectator ion are ions which remain unchanged during chemical equation and does not affect equilibrium
chemical equation for the reaction is as follows
NaSO4 +Babr2 ---> 2 Nabr + BaSO4
ionic equation is as follows
Ba ^+2 + SO^-2 --->BaSO4(s)
therefore the spectator ion are Na+ and Br- ions
