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.

a sample of argon gas is cooled and its volume went from 380. mL to 250. mL. If its final temperature was -55.0C, what was its o
inn [45]

Answer:

The initial temperature was 58.4°C

Explanation:

Given the following data:

initial volume = V₁ = 380 mL = 0.38 L

final volume = V₂ = 250 mL = 0.25 L

final temperature = T₂ = -55°C = 218 K

According to Charles's law, the volume of a gas is <em>directly proportional to the temperature</em> (in Kelvin). The mathematical expression is:

V₁/T₁= V₂/T₂

So, we calculate the initial temperature (V₁) as follows:

T₁ = T₂/V₂ x V₁ = 218 K/(0.25 L) x 0.38 L = 331.36 K ≅ 331.4 K

Finally, we convert the initial temperature from K to °C:

T₁= 331.4 K - 273 = 58.4°C

Which of the following demonstrates a poor internal control procedure?
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer: The bookkeeper makes cash deposits and records journal entries related to cash, while the treasurer prepares the bank reconciliation.

An aqueous solution contains 0.23 M potassium hypochlorite.
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

0.22 mol HClO, 0.11mol HBr.

0.25mol NH₄Cl, 0.12 mol HCl

Explanation:

A buffer is defined as a mixture in solution between weak acid and its conjugate base or vice versa.

Potassium hypochlorite (KClO) could be seen as conjugate base of HClO (Weak acid). That means the addition of <em>0.22 mol HClO  </em>will convert the solution in a buffer. HBr reacts with KClO producing HClO, thus, <em>0.11mol HBr</em> will, also, convert the solution in a buffer. 0.23 mol HBr will react completely with KClO and in the solution you will have only HClO, no a buffering system.

Ammonia (NH₃) is a weak base and its conjugate base is NH₄⁺. That means the addition of <em>0.25mol NH₄Cl</em> will convert the solution in a buffer. Also, NH₃ reacts with HCl producing NH₄⁺. Thus, addition of<em> 0.12 mol HCl</em>  will produce NH₄⁺. 0.25mol HCl consume all NH₃.
