Why can't you get a suntan through glass

Chemistry
2 answers:
maria [59]2 years ago

Answer: UV Rays can't travel through glass, making it impossible to get a suntan because your body won't be able to respond if there is no UV getting to it.

Explanation: Glass absorbs and deflects a lot of UV light because the wavelengths aren't small enough to pass through and as a result, your body can't undergo its natural response of producing melanin, because the proteins activated by the UV damage won't be enacted.

Magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce magnesium chloride and hydrogen gas. Write a balanced chemical equation for t
Alona [7]

Answer:

The balanced chemical equation is Mg + 2HCl ⇒ MgCl2 + H2

The molarity of the hydrochloric acid solution is HCl 0.04 M and the pH = 1.4.

The volume of hydrogen gas produced by the reaction of 0.510 g of Mg will be 0.482 L.

Explanation:

First, for the balanced equation you have to consider the oxidation state of the elements to find subscripts. Then you can find the correct coeficients. Mg= +2, Cl = -1.

Mg + HCL ⇒ MgCl2 + H2

For the molarity of the solution you have to notice tha if 0.510 grams of Mg reacts with 0,5 L of hydroclhoric acid, and from the previous equation 1 mol of Mg reacts with 2 mol HCl.

The atomic mass of Mg = 24.31 grs/mol

24.31 grs------------ 1 mol Mg

0.510 grs------------ x=0.02 mol Mg.

If 1 mol of Mg reacts with 2 mol HCl, then 0.02 mol of Mg will react with

0.04 mol HCl. So, the molarity of the solution is 0.04 M HCl.

Then to calculate the pH we use the formula pH = - log [H+]

⇒ pH = -log [0.04]⇒ pH=1.4.

Finally, from the balanced equation and the findings described, and considering that at 25°C and 1.00 atm 1 mol of gas has volume of 24.1 L.

1 mol H2----------- 24.1 L

0.02 mol H2----- x= 0.482L.

If two gases are present in a container, the total pressure in the container is equal to
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases.

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of partial pressure, the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures which each individual gas would exert if it were confined alone in the volume occupied by the mixture.

Hence, Ptotal = P1+ P2

where Ptotal is the total pressure

P1 and P2 are the partial pressures exerted seperately by the individual gases 1 and 2 that make up the mixture.
