Student added a strip of aluminium metal in aqueous copper(2)Sulfate but no reaction occured. Suggest a reason why.

Chemistry

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

It is a common observation that a strip of aluminium metal in aqueous copper(II)Sulfate does not show any visible reaction. Aluminium is normally expected to displace copper in solution since it is higher than copper in the electrochemical series.

The reason for this is that aluminium forms an oxide film around its surface which prevents reaction with aqueous copper(II)Sulfate. This oxides film protects the aluminium surface such that it is now unable to react with the aqueous copper(II)Sulfate

For the reaction 3h2(g) + n2(g) 2nh3(g), kc = 9.0 at 350°c. calculate g° at 350°c.
miss Akunina [59]
When ΔG° is the change in Gibbs free energy

So according to ΔG° formula:

ΔG° =  - R*T*(㏑K)

here when K = [NH3]^2/[N2][H2]^3 = Kc 

and Kc = 9 

and when T is the temperature in Kelvin = 350 + 273 = 623 K

and R is the universal gas constant = 8.314 1/mol.K

So by substitution in ΔG° formula:

∴ ΔG° = - 8.314 1/ mol.K * 623 K *㏑(9)

           = - 4536

Why might an idea or hypothesis be discarded? A. If another scientist doesn't like it. B. If evidence also supports another hypo
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

C. If it is tested and the evidence does not support it.

Explanation:

A hypothesis is more less a scientific guess. Before such a guess or prediction is made, empirical observations and deductions are first made. It is from the result of the observations that a hypothesis statement is made.

For a hypothesis to become widely adopted and accepted, it must be testable within the limits of the experiment as described by the proposer. When subjected to test and it agrees, the status of a hypothesis can be upgraded.

If the hypothesis is tested and evidence contrasts the result being sort for, a hypothesis will be discarded.

What type of cryptography uses two keys instead of just one, generating both a private and a public key?
Alexxx [7]

Answer:

It is known as asymmetric key cryptography it is also called public key cryptography.

Explanation:

Asymmetric key cryptography method makes use of two keys.One is used for encryption and the second one for decryption. The public key serves to encrypt plain text or verify a digital signature, while the private key is used to decrypt or decipher the encrypted text or to create a digital signature.

The difference between paper chromatography and thin layer chromatography is that
Lera25 [3.4K]

The basic difference between thin layer chromatography (TLC) and paper chromatography (PC) is that, while the stationary phase in PC is paper, the stationary phase in TLC is a thin layer of an inert substance supported on a flat, unreactive surface. ... Paper chromatography is performed using paper.
