What causes the high luster of a metal?

Chemistry

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]3 years ago

Answer:

When light is shone on to the surface of a metal, its electrons absorb small amounts of energy and become excited into one of its many empty orbitals. The electrons immediately fall back down to lower energy levels and emit light. This process is responsible for the high luster of metals.

How many moles of sodium chloride can react with 18.3 liters of fluorine gas at 1.2 atmospheres and 299 Kelvin?
My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

1.79 mol.

Explanation:

  • For the balanced reaction:

<em>2NaCl + F₂ → 2NaF + Cl₂. </em>

It is clear that 2 mol of NaCl react with 1 mol of F₂ to produce 2 mol of NaF and 1 mol of Cl₂.

  • Firstly, we can get the no. of moles of F₂ gas using the general law of ideal gas: <em>PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm (P = 1.2 atm).

V is the volume of the gas in L (V = 18.3 L).

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol (n = ??? mol).

R is the general gas constant (R = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K),

T is the temperature of the gas in K (299 K).

∴ no. of moles of F₂ (n) = PV/RT = (1.2 atm)(18.3 L)/(0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(299 K) = 0.895 mol.

  • Now, we can find the no. of moles of NaCl is needed to react with 0.895 mol of F₂:

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>

2 mol of NaCl is needed to react with → 1 mol of F₂, from stichiometry.

??? mol of NaCl is needed to react with → 0.895 mol of F₂.

∴ The no. of moles of NaCl needed = (2 mol)(0.895 mol)/(1 mol) = 1.79 mol.

The Earth is always _______ as it revolves around the sun.
EastWind [94]

Answer

Rotating

Explanation:

The Earth is always being pulled towards the Sun by gravity.

The Earth is not moving fast enough to "escape" the Sun's gravity and leave the solar system, but it is going too fast to be pulled into the Sun. Therefore, it keeps going around and around( roating)- orbiting the Sun.

The freezing point of diet soda is higher than the freezing point of regular soda, but lower than 0 degrees celcius, the freezin
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

Both Diet Soda and regular soda contain sweeteners.

When a solute is dissolved in solution, the solution undergoes *freezing point depression* it freezing point reduces. The magnitude of freezing point depression is directly proportional to the amount of solute in a solution.

Since soda Both regular or diet soda contains more solute than water , their freezing point is will consequently be lower than water
