What is the similarity between teeth and eggshells?

Chemistry

Eggshells have a similar chemical composition to our tooth enamel, making them react similarly with other chemicals. This can help us understand what stains tooth enamel. When we brush an eggshell with fluoridated toothpaste, it strengthens the shell and protects it from acid, just like it does for our tooth enamel.

Explanation:

Because they share a similar composition, similar chemicals affect their structures in positive or negative ways. For example, fluoride – a staple in many dental practices – strengthens both enamel and eggshells and helps protect them from acids. Acids weaken and break down both substances. Scientists find this particularly concerning given that the ocean is growing increasingly acidic. They fear this may weaken the eggs of some marine species and harm their chance of survival. Most dentists recommend limiting aggressively acidic foods and beverages such as soft drinks.

When CO2(g) is put in a sealed container at 730 K and a pressure of 10.0 atm and is heated to 1420 K , the pressure rises to 24.
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

48%

Explanation:

Based on Gay-Lussac's law, the pressure is directly proportional to the temperature. To solve this question we must assume the temperature increases and all CO2 remains without reaction. The equation is:

P1T2 = P2T1

<em>Where Pis pressure and T absolute temperature of 1, initial state and 2, final state of the gas:</em>

P1 = 10.0atm

T2 = 1420K

P2 = ?

T1 = 730K

P2 = 10.0atm*1420K / 730K

P2 = 19.45 atm

The CO2 reacts as follows:

2CO2 → 2CO+ O2

Where 2 moles of gas react producing 3 moles of gas

Assuming the 100% of CO2 react, the pressure will be:

19.45atm * (3mol / 2mol) = 29.175atm

As the pressure rises just to 24.1atm the moles that react are:

24.1atm * (2mol / 19.45atm) = 2.48 moles of gas are present

The increase in moles is of 0.48 moles, a 100% express an increase of 1mol. The mole percent that descomposes is:

0.48mol / 1mol * 100 = 48%

<h3>Answer:</h3>

0.024 kg CaO

<h3>General Formulas and Concepts:</h3>

<u>Chemistry</u>

<u>Aqueous Solutions</u>

  • Molarity = moles of solute / liters of solution

<u>Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Tables
  • Using Dimensional Analysis
<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

0.41 mol CaO

2.5 M Solution

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

1000 g = 1 kg

Molar Mass of Ca - 40.08 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of CaO - 40.08 + 16.00 = 56.08 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Convert</u>

  1. Set up:                                \displaystyle 0.43 \ mol \ CaO(\frac{56.08 \ g \ Cao}{1 \ mol \ CaO})(\frac{1 \ kg \ CaO}{1000 \ g \ CaO})
  2. Multiply:                              \displaystyle 0.024114 \ kg \ CaO

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs as our lowest.</em>

0.024114 kg CaO ≈ 0.024 kg CaO

The ph3 molecule is polar. does this offer experimental proof that the molecule cannot be planar? explain.
Alex
<span>Answer: if it was planar the center of the negative forces and the center of the positive forces would be at the same place, meaning no di-poles would form so it wouldnt be polar. as it is polar it therefore cannot be planar. the neagative center(pole) is above the the positive one due to the pair of unbonded electrons.</span>
