Chemistry

bulgar [2K]3 years ago
3 0

Similar to Cohesion, adhesion is the attraction between molecules of different substances . Water uses adhesion when it's attraction to another substance is greater than the water's attraction to itself. if you have ever dropped a cup of water on a hardwood floor,you know that it spreads out instead of foaming beads.

A 24.00 mL sample of a solution of Pb(ClO3)2 was diluted with water to 52.00 mL. A 17.00 mL sample of the dilute solution was fo
lara [203]

Answer:

0.238 M

Explanation:

A 17.00 mL sample of the dilute solution was found to contain 0.220 M ClO₃⁻(aq). The concentration is an intensive property, so the concentration in the 52.00 mL is also 0.220 M ClO₃⁻(aq). We can find the initial concentration of ClO₃⁻ using the dilution rule.

C₁.V₁ = C₂.V₂

C₁ × 24.00 mL = 0.220 M × 52.00 mL

C₁ = 0.477 M

The concentration of Pb(ClO₃)₂ is:

\frac{0.477molClO_{3}^{-} }{L} \times \frac{1molPb(ClO_{3})_{2}}{2molClO_{3}^{-}} =0.238M

Lynna [10]

Answer:

It is true that earth was once covered with oceans and little dry land.

Explanation:

Over the course of around four billion years, the Earth's oceans have lost about a quarter of their original mass. Today the atmosphere is rich in oxygen, which reacts with both hydrogen and deuterium to recreate water, which falls back to the Earth's surface. So the vast bulk of the water on Earth is held in a closed system that prevents the planet from gradually drying out. According to the researchers,  the continents emerged relatively suddenly from an ocean that covered 95 percent of the Earth's surface. The appearance of large masses of dry land would have caused more extreme weather, changes in ocean currents and the emergence of proper seasons. In turn, these environmental changes may have led to rise in atmospheric oxygen that enabled the explosion of new life forms around 500 million years ago.
