Answer:

They can be made harder by adding another element to the pure metal, so forming an alloy. This explains why an alloy often has more uses than the pure elements it is made from. Pure iron, for example, is very soft. ... Steels are examples of alloys.

I hope this answer is little bit helpful for you.

If uh want then mark me as a brainliest .

Write the balanced equation for the reaction of aqueous Pb ( ClO 3 ) 2 Pb(ClO3)2 with aqueous NaI . NaI. Include phases. chemica

FinnZ [79.3K]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of precipitate (lead (II) iodide) that will form is 119.89 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Molarity of NaI solution = 0.130 M

Volume of solution = 0.400 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.130M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaI}}{0.400L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaI}=(0.130mol/L\times 0.400L)=0.52mol$

The balanced chemical equation for the reaction of lead chlorate and sodium iodide follows:

$Pb(ClO_3)_2(aq.)+2NaI(aq.)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2NaClO_3(aq.)$

The precipitate (insoluble salt) formed is lead (II) iodide

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaI produces 1 mole of lead (II) iodide

So, 0.52 moles of NaI will produce = $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.52=0.26mol$ of lead (II) iodide

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

Moles of lead (II) iodide = 0.26 moles

Molar mass of lead (II) iodide = 461.1 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.26mol=\frac{\text{Mass of lead (II) iodide}}{461.1g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of lead (II) iodide}=(0.26mol\times 461.1g/mol)=119.89g$

Hence, the mass of precipitate (lead (II) iodide) that will form is 119.89 grams

The pH of lemon juice is 2, and the pH of orange juice is 4. Which of these is more acidic, and by how much? What does this mean

katovenus [111]

Explanation:

The pH is a 1 to 14 scale that measures how acidic or basic is a solution, at lowest number the solution will be acid, in 7 the solution will be neutral, and in higher values will be basic. It is a logarithmic scale, so with each number you move, the acidity or basicity will be increased by a factor of 10. So, lemon juice is more acidic than orange juice by a factor of 100.
