Give below are the four mixtures. Choose the correct one which can be separated by winnowing. (i) soybean and chickpeas (ii) whe
victus00 [196]

Answer:

Banana wafers and chips

Explanation:

Winnowing is the process of separating heavier and lighter components of a mixture by blowing air through the mixture. This implies that the relative weight of the particles in the mixture determines whether they can be separated by winnowing or not.

However, chips are heavier than wafers. wafers refer to a very light snack which is easily blown away by a current of air. Hence banana chips and wafers can be separated using the method of winnowing.

What is the limiting reactant when 20g CH4 react with 15g H20?
Art [367]

Answer:

H₂O.

Explanation:

  • It is clear from the balanced equation:

<em>CH₄ + 2H₂O → CO₂ + 4H₂.</em>

that 1.0  mole of CH₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of H₂O to produce 1.0 mole of CO₂ and 4.0 moles of H₂.

  • To determine the limiting reactant, we should calculate the no. of moles of (20 g) CH₄ and (15 g) H₂O using the relation:

<em>n = mass/molar mass</em>

<em></em>

no. of moles of CH₄ = mass/molar mass = (20 g)/(16 g/mol) = 1.25 mol.

no. of moles of H₂O = mass/molar mass = (15 g)/(18 g/mol) = 0.833 mol.

  • <em>from the balanced reaction, 1.0  mole of CH₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of H₂O.</em>

So, from the calculated no. of moles: 0.4167 mole of CH₄ reacts completely with 0.833 mole of H₂O and the remaining of CH₄ will be in excess.

<u><em>So, the limiting reactant is H₂O.</em></u>

Metals experience plastic deformation when _____. A. Their crystal patterns have been disrupted by stress
zaharov [31]

Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Plastic deformation is the change in shape of an object or metal caused by the load of excess stress.

Thus, metals experience plastic deformation when their crystal patterns have been disrupted by stress.

When stress is provided to the metal then their crystal pattern gets deformed resulting in change of shape of the metal. Plastic deformation is a permanent deformation.

When barium becomes positively charged, it forms a(n): (2 points)
mart [117]

Barium forms cation : Ba²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Barium element

Required

Ion type

Solution

Barium with the symbol Ba is an alkaline earth metal element having the atomic number 56

Electron configuration of Barium: [Xe] 6s2

If we look at this configuration, then Barium will try to achieve stability by removing 2 electrons so that the electron configuration is the same as the noble gas Xenon (Xe)

Because it removes 2 electrons, Barium has the number of protons> the number of electrons so that the charge is positive and forms a cation
