What happens to water when it freezes?

Chemistry
2 answers:
disa [49]2 years ago
8 0

Explanation:

When an object undergoes a physical change (solid to liquid, decrease in temperature etc.), the mass of the object remains constant.

When water freezes, the water molecules vibrate closer to one another and there is less space between the molecules.

The same number of water molecules now occupy a smaller volume, therefore their density increases.

The correct answer is the 3rd option.

Write the molecular formula for the compound that exhibits a molecular ion at M+ = 112.0499. Assume that C, H, N, and O might be
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

C₅H₈N₂O

Explanation:

The molecular formula denotes the various forms of atoms contained in a molecule at a particular fixed proportion.

The molecular ion M⁺ = 112.0499

and the exact mass values are given as follows:

C = 12.000

H = 1.0078

N = 14.003

O = 15.995

By assumption:

C = 12.000 × 5 = 60.0000

H = 1.0078 × 8 =    1.0078

N = 14.003 × 2 =  28.0060

<u>O = 15.995 × 1 =   15.9950    </u>

<u>                         = 112.0634     </u>

This is approximtely equal to 112.0499.

As such the Molecular formula for the compound = C₅H₈N₂O

Wetlands provide habitats for many living things because of their sheltered waters and what other feature?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

large supply of nutrients.

Explanation:

In a wetland, the soil is covered by water or is almost covered by water. This water may be coming upwards from an underground aquifer. Wetlands are covered by water for most of the year.

They are sheltered waters and do provide habitats for many living things.

Nutrients such as; Carbon sulfur, phosphorus, carbon, and nitrogen are cycled within the soil of wetlands hence wetlands have a large supply of nutrients.

Which substance/s have covalent bond? Explain your answer.​
Viefleur [7K]
Covalent bonding occurs when electrons are shared between atoms. Double and triple covalent bonds occur when four or six electrons are shared between two atoms, and they are indicated in Lewis structures by drawing two or three lines connecting one atom to another.

Describe how visible spectroscopy could be used to determine the order of a reaction in which a single colorless reactant produc
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

Explanation:

In a reaction, where, one of the reactant produces a colored product, visible spectroscopy can be used to determined the order of a reaction, the change in concentration of the reactant which forms the colored product is determined by absorbance measurement over time. The data for the concentration and time are plotted on the y and x axis and If we get a straight line it is a zero-order reaction. If instead, a plot of ln[concentration] versus time gives a straight line, it is a first order reaction. However, If 1/concentration versus time gives a straight line, it is a second order reaction kinetics. The other reactants may be changed while keeping this reactant as constant and change on rate of the reaction is observed to see If the other reactant affects the reaction or not.
