Answer:
3. crystal habit and cleavage.
Explanation:
Crystal habit is a distinctive characteristic which is shown in its general shape, crystallographic forms, how developed each form is.
Cleavage is the ability of a mineral to break in smooth planes parallel to zones of weak bonding. Cleavage in three directions at right angles (90o). Cubic cleavage. Cleavage in three directions not at right angles (120o and 60o).
Answer:
- <em>(B.) The pH of a buffer solution is determined by the ratio of the concentration of conjugate base to the concentration of strong acid.</em>
- <em>(C.) A buffer is generally made up of a weak acid and its conjugate base. </em>
- <em>(D.) The pH of a buffer solution does not change significantly when any amount of a strong acid is added.</em>
Explanation:
A buffer is solution which resists change in pH upon addition of either acids or bases.
The pH of a buffer is calculated by the ratio of the concentration of base to concentration of acid. The weak acid and conjugate base have a Ka similar to the pH desired.
Answer: <span>The molecules of a substance which must have the
<u>a</u></span>
<u>bility to move past one another</u> are said to be flexible.
Explanation: Those substances are said to be flexible which can be
bent without breaking. There are many substances which are
hard in nature but still can be bent. The hardness of such materials is due to
strong interactions between the molecules and the flexibility comes due to their
amorphous backbone. Therefore, greater the
crystalline level of macromolecules lesser is the flexibility and greater the amorphous character greater is the flexibility and vice versa. Also, the flexibility of polymers is increased by adding
plastisizers in it. Plastisizers make the hard polymers flexible by breaking the crosslinkers and enabling the macromolecules to move past one another.
We determine the percent by mass of water in the compound by dividing the mass of water by the total mass. The total mass of Na2SO4.10H2O is equal to 322 g. The mass of water is 180 g.
percent by mass of water = (180 / 322)*(100 %) = 55.9%
