Answer:

When you hold an ice cube, heat is transferred from your warm hand to the cold ice and melts it. Your hand feels cold because it is losing heat energy. There are three ways that heat can be transferred: by conduction, convection, and radiation. heat through solids.

What is catalyst? Write its types.

Step2247 [10]

Answer:

A catalyst is a chemical substance that alters the rate of chemical reaction not consumed by the reaction. Hence, a catalyst can be recovered chen unchanged at the ends of chemical reaction. Catalyst can be divided into two typ the basis whether it speeds up or slowdowns the rate of chemical reaction. The positive catalyst and negative catalyst.

What is the volume of an oxygen tank if it contains 12 moles of oxygen at 273 K under 75 kPa?

Zina [86]

Given:
n = 12 moles of oxygen
T = 273 K, temperature
p = 75 kPa, pressure

Use the ideal gas law, given by
$pV=nRT \\ or \\ V= \frac{nRT}{p}$
where
V = volume
R = 8.3145 J/(mol-K), the gas constant

Therefore,
$V= \frac{(12\,mol)(8.3145\, \frac{J}{mol-K} )(273\,K)}{75 \times 10^{3} \, Pa}= 0.3632\,m^{3}$

Answer: 0.363 m³

What are oil and waters properties of matter?

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

Two other beneficial properties of the oil include the inhibition of corrosion of metal surfaces, such as steel, and the removal of dirt and detritus via detergency.

Properties of water include its chemical formula H2O, density, melting, boiling point & how one molecule of water has two hydrogen atoms covalently bonded to one oxygen atom.

Indicate which solution in each pair has the lower pH. Your response should be a four letter "word". The first letter should be

JulijaS [17]

Answer:

bcfh

Explanation:

HClO₄ reacts with water thus:

HClO₄ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + ClO₄⁻

That means HClO₄ produce H₃O⁺ that decreases pH. That means the higher concentration of HClO₄ decreases pH. Thus, lower pH will be:

b) 0.2 M HClO4

The reaction of NaClO₄ is:

NaClO₄ + H₂O → OH⁻ + HClO₄ + Na⁺

The higher concentration of NaClO₄ the higher production of OH⁻ that increase pH, that means the lower concentration of NaClO₄ the lower pH, thus, the answer is:

<em>c) 0.1 M NaClO or</em>

HF reacts with water thus;

HF ⇄ H⁺ + F⁻

The equilibrium constant is:

k = [H⁺] [F⁻] / [HF] = 3,5x10⁻⁴

For HNO₂ equilibrium is:

HNO₂ ⇄ H⁺ + NO₂⁻

k = [H⁺] [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂] = 4,5x10⁻⁴

As k value is higher for HNO₂, the concentration of H⁺ will be higher in this system doing the HNO₂ with the lower pH.

f) 0.1 M HNO2

NaOH is a strong base that produce OH⁻ that increase pH, pure water is neutral, thus, the lowe pH is:

h) pure water

I hope it helps!
