Answer: The wire is still copper and does not change by cutting it

Explanation:

Democritus postulated that all materials were composed of these tiny particles called as "atomos".

Daltons postulates are:.

1. All matter is made of very tiny particles called atoms.

2. Atoms is indivisible.

3. Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties.

4. Atoms of different elements have different masses and chemical properties.

5. Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.

6. The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound.

Thus when copper wire is cut into the smallest possible pieces, the atoms were intact as they are indivisible and all atoms have same mass and chemical properties.Thus the wire is still copper and does not change by cutting it

Calculate the mass of nitric acid required to make a 250mL solution with 2.40 ph

meriva

The mass of nitric acid required to make the given solution is 0.0627 g.

The given parameters:

Volume of the acid, V = 250 mL
pH of the acid, = 2.4

The hydrogen ion (H⁺) concentration of the nitric acid is calculated as follows;

$H^+ = 10^{-pH}\\\\H^+ = 10^{-2.4}\\\\H^+ = 0.00398$

The molarity of the nitric acid is calculated as follows;

$= 0.00398 \ H^+ \times \frac{1 \ M \ HNO_3}{1 \ H^+} \\\\= 0.00398 \ M$

The number of moles of the nitric acid is calculated as follows;

$moles = M\times L\\\\moles = 0.00398\ M \ \times \ \frac{250 \ mL}{1000} \\\\moles = 9.95 \times 10^{-4} \ mol.$

The molar mass of nitric acid is calculated as;

$HNO_3 = (1) \ + (14) \ + (16 \times 3) = 63 \ g/mol$

The mass of the nitric acid contained in the calculated number of moles is calculated as;

$mass = moles\ \times \ molar \ mass\\\\mass = 9.95\times 10^{-4} \ mol. \ \times \ 63 \ g/mol\\\\mass = 0.0627 \ g$

Thus, the mass of nitric acid required to make the given solution is 0.0627 g.

Find the grams in 1.26 x 10^-4 mole of HC2 H3O2

ivolga24 [154]

Molar mass :

HC₂H₃O₂ = 1 + 12*2 + 1 * 3 + 16 * 2 = 60 g/mol

1 mole HC₂H₃O₂ -------------- 60 g
1.26x10-⁴ mole ----------------- mass

mass = 1.26x10-⁴ * 60

mass = 0.00756 g of HC₂H₃O₂

hope this helps!

5. Which of the following has variable composition A. Water B. sugar C, soil D. Salt

erica [24]

Answer:

C. Soil

Explanation:

The choice with variable composition is the soil. Soil have many different composition.

Soil is made up of minerals, organic matter , water and soil air.
Soil minerals are derived from weathered bedrock materials that have been broken down into small pieces.
Organic matter is derived from dead and decaying materials from plants and animals.
All these materials combine together to form a soil.

What is the molarity of the solution resulting from the dissolution of 239 g glucose (C6H12O6) in 250

kifflom [539]

Answer:

Molarity =5.32 M

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of glucose = 239 g

Volume = 250 mL (250 /1000 = 0.25 L)

Molarity = ?

Solution;

Formula:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Number of moles:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 239 g / 180.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.33 mol

Molarity:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in litter

Molarity = 1.33 mol / 0.25 L

Molarity =5.32 M
