Answer:

a supposition or a system of ideas intended to explain something, especially one based on general principles independent of the thing to be explained.

(from goo gle)

A explanation for something that doesn't seem to be answered completely, usually very implausible.

A 0.630 gram sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to:A volume of 291 mL of hydrogen is collected
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

55.0 g/mol

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1</em>. Partial pressure of hydrogen

You are collecting the gas over water, so

p_{\text{atm}} = p_{\text{H}_{2}} + p_{\text{H}_{2}\text{O}}

p_{\text{H}_{2}} = p_{\text{atm}} - p_{\text{H}_{2}\text{O}}

p_{\text{atm}} = \text{756.0 Torr}

At 25 °C,p_{\text{H}_{2}\text{O}} = \text{23.8 Torr}

p_{\text{H}_{2}} = \text{756.0 Torr} - \text{23.8 Torr} = \text{732.2 Torr}

===============

<em>Step 2</em>. Moles of H₂

We can use the <em>Ideal Gas Law</em>.

pV = nRT                                       Divide both sides by RT

n = (pV)/(RT)

p = 732.2 Torr                               Convert to atmospheres

p = 732.2/760  

p = 0.9634 atm

V = 291 mL                                     Convert to litres

V = 0.291 L

R = 0.082 06 L·atm·K⁻¹mol⁻¹

T = 25 °C                                        Convert to kelvins

T = (25 + 273.15 ) K = 298.15 K    

n = (0.9632 × 0.291)/(0.082 06 × 298.15)      

n = 0.2804/24.47

n = 0.011 46 mol

===============

<em>Step 3</em>. Moles of metal

The partial chemical equation is

M + H₂SO₄ ⟶ H₂ + …

The molar ratio of M:H₂ is 1 mol M:1 mol H₂.

Moles of M = 0.011 46× 1/1

Moles of M = 0.011 46 mol M

===============

<em>Step 4</em>. Atomic mass of M

Atomic mass = mass of M/moles of M

Atomic mass = 0.630/0.011 46

Atomic mass = 55.0 g/mol

Natali [406]

Explanation:

the experiment conducted is the student adds sugar to a cup of iced tea and a cup of hot tea. She notices that the time needed for the sugar to dissolve in each cup is different. She thinks this has something to do with the temperature of the tea

hypothesis: If the student puts the sugar in both glasses of tea, then the sugar in the hot tea should dissolve quicker.

At 25°C, gas in a rigid cylinder with a movable piston has a volume of 145 mL and a pressure of 125 kPa. Then the gas is compres
natta225 [31]

Answer:

(4) 230 kPa

Explanation:

The temperature is constant, so the only variables are pressure and volume.

We can use Boyle’s Law.

p_{1}V_{1} = p_{2}V_{2}

Divide both sides of the equation by V_{2}.

p_{2} = p_{1} \times \frac{V_{1}}{ V_{2}}

p_{1} = \text{145 kPa}; V_{1} = \text{125 cm}^{3}}

p_{2} = ?; V_{2} = \text{80. cm}^{3}

p_{2} = \text{145 kPa} \times \frac{\text{125 cm}^{3}}{\text{80. cm}^{3}} = \textbf{230 kPa}
