A solid with a mass of Mgrams is melted by heating it. After a half-hour, the solid is

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lerok [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

equal to M

Explanation:

The mass of the fully melted mass and the initial solid will be the same. So, the mass of the melt is equal to M.

Mass is the amount of matter contained within a substance. Since only the phase changed and the amount of matter is still the same, the mass of the molten phase and the solid phase will remain the same.

We are correct to say that in the heating process no mass was destroyed or added in melting the solid.

A simple phase change that preserved the mass only occurred.

12. Which one of the following is not true about the reaction of: CH3-
weqwewe [10]

Explanation:

CH₃CH₃ + Cl₂ → CH₃CH₂Cl + HCl

  • This reaction take place in the presence of light/UV rays. (i.e, photochemical reaction)
  • It's a Chlorination reaction because here there's addition of chlorine.
  • It's a substitution reaction because Cl substituted H from place and attach there.

Option which is NOT correct is

Option A (It's not an elimination reaction)

Therefore,

Option A is correct✔

A loaded coal wagon with a total mass of 20 000 kg is pushed by a force of 300 000 N. What was the wagon’s acceleration?
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

<h2>15 m/s²</h2>

Explanation:

The acceleration of an object given it's mass and the force acting on it can be found by using the formula

a =  \frac{f}{m}  \\

f is the force

m is the mass

From the question we have

a =  \frac{300000}{20000}  =  \frac{30}{2}  \\

We have the final answer as

<h3>15 m/s²</h3>

Hope this helps you

A compound is 40.0% c, 6.70% h, and 53.3% o by mass. assume that we have a 100.-g sample of this compound. the molecular formula
atroni [7]
<span>When you have 100 g of compound, then based on the percentages given, there are 40.0 g C, 6.70 g H, and 53.3 g O. Convert those to moles:

</span>C: 40.0 g / 12.0 = 3.33 moles of C 
<span>H: 6.70 g / 1.01 = 6.63 moles of H </span>
<span>O: 53.3 / 16.0 = 3.33 moles of O 
</span>
<span>Dividing by the smallest (3.33), we get a C:H:O mole ratio of 1:2:1
</span>So, <span>The empirical formula is CH2O.
Now, </span><span>That formula has a molar mass of [12.0 + 2(1.0) + 16.0] = 30.0

And we are given it's molar mass is = 240

So, no. of units of CH2O = 240 / 30 = 8

</span><span>8 x CH2O = C8H16O8, and that is the molecular formula.

Which of the following best helps to explain why the electron affinity of Br has a greater magnitude than that of I?
tankabanditka [31]

The reason why  Br has a greater magnitude of electron affinity than that of I is that there is a greater attraction between an added electron and the nucleus in Br than in I.

In the periodic table, there are trends that increase down the group and across the period. Electron affinity is a trend that increases across the period but decreases down the group.

Recall that the ability of an atom to accept an electron depends on the size of the atom. The smaller the atom, the greater the attraction between an added electron and the nucleus.

Since Br is smaller than I, there is a greater attraction between an added electron and the nucleus in Br than in I which explains why Br has a greater magnitude of electron affinity than  I.

The statement "Although sulfuric acid is a strong electrolyte, an aqueous solution of H2SO4 contains more HSO4− ions than SO42−
PIT_PIT [208]

The statement "Although sulfuric acid is a strong electrolyte, an aqueous solution of H₂SO₄ contains more HSO₄⁻ ions than SO₄²⁻ ions is <u>True.</u> This is best explained by the fact that H₂SO₄ <u>is a diprotic acid where only the first hydrogen completely ionizes.</u>

Why?

H₂SO₄ is a diprotic acid. That means that it has <u>two hydrogen ions</u> to give to the solution. The two dissociation reactions are shown below:

H₂SO₄ + H₂O → HSO₄⁻ + H₃O⁺

HSO₄⁻ + H₂O ⇄ SO₄²⁻ + H₃O⁺

As the arrows show, the first dissociation is complete, meaning that all the sulfuric acid that is present initially is dissociated into HSO₄⁻ and H₃O⁺. However, the second dissociation is incomplete, and it's actually an equilibrium with an acid constant  (Ka)of 1.2×10⁻².

That means that if the initial concentration of H₂SO₄ was 1M, the concentration of HSO₄⁻ is going to be 1M as well, but <u>the concentration of SO₄²⁻ is going to be much less than 1M</u>, according to the dissociation constant.

Have a nice day!
