Answer:

Purpose: To become familiar with the techniques for separation of amixture of solids.

Explanation:

a mixture of pure substances. If you have a mixture of tennis ballsand marbles (not pure substances by the way), it would be easy toseparate the mixture. However, it is more difficult to separate asand (also not a pure substance) and salt mixture. Even with verygood tweezers and a magnifying glass, it would be extremelytedious. You could take advantage of the fact that salt dissolvesin water and sand does not. To separate iron powder from an ironand sand mixture you can take advantage of the magnetic propertiesof iron and separate the mixture.

To summarize a complete procedure for separating a mixture ofseveral substances, it is best to prepare a flow chart. A flowchartis a schematic representation of an algorithm or a stepwiseprocess, showing the steps as boxes of various kinds, and theirorder by connecting these with arrows. Flowcharts are used indesigning or documenting a process.

siniylev [52]

Answer:

∆H > 0

∆Srxn <0

∆G >0

∆Suniverse <0

Explanation:

We are informed that the reaction is endothermic. An endothermic reaction is one in which energy is absorbed hence ∆H is positive at all temperatures.

Similarly, absorption of energy leads to a decrease in entropy of the reaction system. Hence the change in entropy of the reaction ∆Sreaction is negative at all temperatures.

The change in free energy for the reaction is positive at all temperatures since ∆S reaction is negative then from ∆G= ∆H - T∆S, we see that given the positive value of ∆H, ∆G must always return a positive value at all temperatures.

Since entropy of the surrounding= - ∆H/T, given that ∆H is positive, ∆S surrounding will be negative at all temperatures. This is so because an endothermic reaction causes the surrounding to cool down.

What volume of 0.585 m ca(oh)2 would be needed to neutralize 15.8 l of 1.51 m hcl?

SpyIntel [72]

When the balanced reaction equation is:

2HCl(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) → CaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

from the balanced equation, we can get the molar ratio between HCl & Ca(OH)2

2:1

∴ the volume of Ca(OH)2 = 15.8 L HCl * 1.51 m HCl * (1mol Ca(OH)2/ 2mol HCl) * (1L ca(OH)2/0.585 mol Ca(OH)2

= 20.4 L

Sergio039 [100]

Answer:

The false statement is: 3. Because liquid water and liquid carbon tetrachloride do not mix, neither do their vapors

Explanation:

Gas is a state of matter, that has less density than liquids and solids. The gaseous particles have low intermolecular forces and thus they can move freely.

It is a very compressible fluid that has no fixed shape. Gas occupies the whole container in which it is stored, thus taking the shape of the container. Therefore, the volume of the gas is equal to the volume of the container.

Polar liquid like water (H₂O) and nonpolar liquid like carbon tetrachloride, are immiscible. However, in the gaseous state, their vapors form a homogeneous mixture.

How does temperature, pressure, and density impact the core of the Earth?

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

temperatures within the outer core range from 7,200 to 9,000 F. Pressure also increases in the outer core due in part to the weight of the crust and mantle above.The Earth's magnetic field is generated by the outer core.
