Which substances corrode copper?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
DiKsa [7]2 years ago
4 0
The presence of oxidizing acids; heavy-metal salts, sulfur, and ammonia; and a number of sulfur and ammonia compounds can cause corrosion to set in. Water that comes from a well is much more likely to contain these materials and put copper lines in jeopardy—but it can occur in the civic water system as well.

Copper corrodes at insignificant rates when used in areas with unpolluted air, non-oxidizing acids, and water. However, it happens more rapidly with the presence of road salt, ammonia, sulfur, oxidizing acids

Acidic substances react with the surface of copper, causing it to tarnish and corrode almost instantly. This corrosion is highly soluble, leading to the presence of toxic copper salts in the food. This is why it is not recommended to use copper vessels for foods high in acidity, such as milk, wine, or vinegar.

Which of these solutes raises the boiling point of water the most?
sergey [27]

Answer:

D. ionic sodium phosphate (Na3PO4)

Explanation:

Molecule for molecule, the solute that raises the boiling point of water the most is the one that makes the most particles in the solution. Lithium chloride breaks up into two ions (Li+ and Cl-). So does sodium chloride (Na+ and Cl-). Molecular molecules don't break up at all, so sucrose has only 1 particle per molecule. Sodium phosphate makes 4 total particles (3 Na+ ions and 1 PO4^3-). And magnesium bromide would make 3 particles (1 Mg2+ and 2 Br-). So the most is 4.
