Answer:

7g/cm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of the mineral  = 21g

Volume  = 3cm³

Unknown:

Density of the mineral  = ?

Solution:

Density of a substance is the mass per unit volume of the substance.

 Density  = \frac{mass}{volume}  

  Now insert the given parameters and solve;

  Density  = \frac{21}{3}   = 7g/cm³

The mineral with a density of 7g/cm³ is Galena, an ore of lead.

When the nail was copper-plated in Part III of the lab, what element do you think was reduced? Explain your answer in complete s
Jet001 [13]
Reduction <span>always results in a lowering of the oxidation number. The reaction of the system above is written as:

</span><span>Cu2+(aq) + Fe(s) --> Cu(s) + Fe2+(aq) 
</span>
From the reaction, we see that copper goes from the +2 to a neutral charge. Lowering of the oxidation number happens so this is the element that is being reduced.

Which statement justifies that hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is a polar molecule?
Rudik [331]
To determine whether a compound is polar or nonpolar you have to take into account:

1) formation of dipoles due to the difference in electronegativities of the atoms

2) shape of the molecule to conclude whether there is a net dipole momentum.

You already, likely, know that the electronegativities of H and O are significatively different, being O more electronegative thatn H. So, you can conclude easilty that the electrons are atracted more by O than by H, thus creating two dipoles H→O

Regarding the shape, it may appear that the molecule is symmetrical, which would lead to the cancellation of the two dipoles. But that is not the true. The H2O2 is not symmetrical.

The lewis structure just show this shape

      **   **
H - O - O - H
      **   **

which is what may induce to think that the molecule is symmetrical, leading to the misconception that it is nonpolar.

But in a three dimensional arrangement you could see that the hydrogens are placed in non symmetrical positions, which leads to the formation of a net dipole momentum, and thus to a polar molecule.

The fact that H2O2 is a polar compound is the reason why it can be mixed with water and the H2O2 that you buy in the pharmacy is normally a solution in water.

So, the hydrogen peroxide is polar because the hydrogens are not placed symmetrically in the molecule, which result in a net dipole momentum.

For the reaction of hydrogen with iodine
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, considering the given chemical reaction:

H_2(g) + I_2(g) \rightarrow 2HI(g)

Thus, by applying the law of rate proportions, we can write:

\frac{1}{-1} r_{H_2} = \frac{1}{-1}r_{i_2} = \frac{1}{2} r_{HI}

Whereas the stoichiometric coefficients of reactants are negative due their disappearance and that of the product is positive due to its appearance. In such a way, when we relate the rate of disappearance of hydrogen gas to the rate of formation of hydrogen iodide, we obtain:

r_{H_2} = \frac{-1}{2} r_{HI}

Best regards!
