Tungsten is used in light bulbs because of its high melting point.

It is also used because it has the lowest vapor pressure and greatest tensile strength.

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\mathrm{melting \ point}}$

Explanation:

Tungsten is used in light bulbs because its high melting point. Tungsten has a high melting point of $\sf 3422 \ \°C$ .

Tungsten also has the lowest vapor pressure and the highest tensile strength out of all the metals.

What volume in mt, of 0.5a M1HCI solution is needed to neutralize 77 ml of 1.54 M NaOH solution?

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

237.2 mL.

Explanation:

We have the rule: at neutralization, the no. of millimoles of acid is equal to the no. of millimoles of the base.

(XMV) acid = (XMV) base.

where, X is the no. of (H) or (OH) reproducible in acid or base, respectively.

M is the molarity of the acid or base.

V is the volume of the acid or base.

(XMV) HCl = (XMV) NaOH.

For HCl; X = 1, M = 0.5 M, V = ??? mL.

For NaOH, X = 1, M = 1.54 M, V = 77.0 mL.

∴ V of HCl = (XMV) NaOH / (XV) HCl = (1)(1.54 M)(77.0 mL) / (1)(0.5 M) = 237.2 mL.

A piece of metal with a mass of 611 g is placed into a graduated cylinder that contains 25.1 ml of water, raising the water leve

jeka94

Mass of metal piece is 611 g and volume of graduated cylinder is 25.1 mL. When metal piece is placed in the graduated cylinder water level increases to 56.7 mL. The increase in volume is due to volume of metal piece that gets added to the volume of water.

Thus, volume of metal piece can be calculated by subtracting initial volume from the final one.

$V_{metal}=V_{final}-V_{initial}=(56.7-25.1)mL=31.6 mL$
