svp [43]2 years ago
5 0

a Hypothesis is a guess

A scientific theory is an explanation of an aspect of the natural world and universe that can be repeatedly tested and verified in accordance with the scientific method, using accepted protocols of observation, measurement, and evaluation of results. Where possible, theories are tested under controlled conditions in an experiment.

Calculate the molar mass of a compound from the following information. You find that the freezing point of benzene is 5.5 degree
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

The molar mass (Mm) of the compound is 127.39 g/mole

Explanation:

ΔT = Kf. molality

ΔT = change in temperature = Tfinal - Tinitial = 2.8 - 5.5

Kf = freezing point depression constant = - 4.3 C/m (always negative because temperature is decreasing)

molality = moles of solute/Kg of solvent = mole (n)/(20 x 10^-3 Kg of benzene)

(2.8 - 5.5) = (-4.3) x molality

molality = 0.6279 mole/kg

0.6279 = mole of compound/(20 x 10^-3)

mole of compound = 0.01256 mole

mole (n) = mass (m) divided by Molar mass (Mm)

Molar mass = mass of compound / mole of compound

m/n = 1.6/0.01256 = 127.39 g/mole

Calculate the concentration of OH-in a solution that has a concentration of H+ = 8.1 x 10^−6 M at 25°C. Multiply the answer you
Nat2105 [25]

Answer:

The answer is 12.35

Explanation:

From the question we are given that the concentration of H^{+} is 8.1 * 18^{-6}M

 Generally The rate equation is given as

                                                           K_{w} = [H^{+} ][OH^{-} ]

and K_{w} the rate constant has a value 1 * 10^{-14}

     Substituting and making [OH^{-}] the subject we have

                                                 [OH^{-} ] = \frac{1 * 10^{-14}}{[H^{+}]} = \frac{1 * 10^{-14}}{8.1 *10^{-6}} =1.235 * 10^{-9}

                                                  [OH ^ {-}] = 1.235 * 10^{-9}M

                            Multiply the value by 10^{10} as instructed from the question we have  

                       Answer =   1.235 * 10 ^{-9} * 10^{10} = 12.35

Hence the answer in 2 decimal places is 12.35

10. Which best explains why the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the
Olegator [25]

Answer:

D. Gases were released to the atmosphere

Explanation:

In accordance to the law of conservation of mass, the total amount of reactants must equate the total amount of products at the end of the reaction because matter can not be lost or created. However, certain changes like gas evolution, formation of precipitate etc. indicates the occurrence of a chemical reaction.

In a chemical reaction, the total mass of the product(s) would be less than the total weight of the reactant(s) because GASES, which constituted part of the mass of the reaction, WERE RELEASED INTO THE ATMOSPHERE. However, if the mass of the gas released can be accounted for, the amount of reactants and products must balance.

Kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy are both forms of which type
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

<em>C. Potential energy</em>

Explanation:

Kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy are both forms of potential energy. Potential energy is stored energy, when an object is not in motion it has stored energy. When an object is an motion it has kinetic energy. An object posses gravitational potential energy when it is above or below the zero height.
