Water is the only common substance that when you freeze it, it's volume INCREASES.
When the pipe originally held the "all full" volume and the the water expanded, it put a tremendous amount of pressure on the pipe. Enough pressure and the pipe would burst.
Copper does not react with hot water or steam
Unit of M is also mole/L, where mole is the moles of solute and L is the volume of the solution. The latter is given: 158 mL or 0.158 L. So we need to find out the moles of NH4Br.
Moles of NH4Br = Mass of NH4Br/molar mass of NH4Br = 17.0g/(14+1*4+79.9)g/mol = 0.1736 mole.
So, the molarity of the solution = 0.1736mole/0.158L = 1.10 mole/L = 1.10 M
Answer:
You will be able to watch the slow dissolution of the nail (probably a steel nail and not iron) and the change in colour of the solution.
Explanation:
I believe not 100% sure.
