A pure white crystalline compound was found to melt at 112.5-113.0oC when taken on a melting point apparatus, and on further hea

ting, the liquid was found to turn brown at ca. 145-150 oC. The capillary containing the melted compound was set aside to cool, and resolidify. When the sample was retried, using the same capillary the sample melted at 133.6-154.5oC. Why is the melting point higher than 112°, and the range so wide?

According to the question, the determined melting point of the compound is 112.5-113.0oC. When the solidified compound was retried, the melting point was found to be 133.6-154.5oC. This greater range higher than  112°C is caused by reusing samples leads to errors.

A pure sample is known by its sharp melting point. A pure sample does not melt over a large range. We can see this in the predetermined melting points of the pure sample(112.5-113.0oC).

However, reusing a sample introduces errors because the pure sample may become contaminated leading to a larger and higher range of melting point (133.6-154.5oC) which is far above  112°C.

Why are comets icy bodies?
krok68 [10]

Comets are icy bodies because they originate in areas beyond Neptune.

Option a

<u>Explanation:</u>

Comets are icy, “small solar system” bodies that, warms up and begins to release gases or dust when it passes close to the Sun. The nucleus of a comet is made up of an combination of rock, dust, water ice, and frozen carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, and ammonia while the surface of the nucleus is generally dry, dusty or rocky.

They are often called as dirty snowballs because of their physical appearance and due to the fact that these Short-period comets originate in the Kuiper belt that lies beyond the orbit of Neptune. Comets have an icy body because they originate from a disk-shaped band of icy objects known as the “Kuiper Belt” that lies just “beyond Neptune's orbit”, with gravitational interactions with the outer planets dragging these bodies inward.

What is the binding energy of a mole of nuclei with a mass defect of 0.00084 kg/mol?
Alik [6]

Answer:

The binding energy of a mole of the nuclei is 252KJ

Explanation:

The binding energy is the amount of energy required to separate an atom into its nuclei.

From Einstein's relations,

       E = Δmc^{2}

where E is the energy, Δm is the mass defect and c is the speed.

The mole of nuclei moves with the speed of light, so that;

  c = 3.0 × 10^{8} m/s

Given that Δm = 0.00084Kg/mol, the binding energy is calculated as;

       E = 0.00084 × 3.0 × 10^{8}

         = 252000

        = 252KJ

The binding energy of a mole of the nuclei is 252KJ.
