Explain the difference between qualitative and quantitative properties.

1 answer:

3 0

Qualitative properties are properties that are observed and can generally not be measured with a numerical result. They are contrasted to quantitative properties which have numerical characteristics.

The volume of a gas is the same as its _____.

AleksandrR [38]

The volume of a gas is the same as its CONTAINER.

Gases generally has no shape and no definite volume. When a gas is placed in a container, the gas usually takes the shape and the volume of the container, that is, the gas fills up all the available spaces in the container. Thus, the volume of a gas will always be the same as its container. This is in contrast with solids, which have definite shape and volume and liquids, which have definite volume but no fixed shape.

What ions will form when baking soda is dissolved in water?

ad-work [718]

Answer:When you add baking powder to water or milk, the alkali and the acidreact with one another and produce carbon dioxide – the bubbles. Sodium bicarbonate is a weak base which is commonly known as baking soda and used in cooking. It weakly ionizes in water: NaHCO3 + H2O → H2CO3 + (OH-) + (Na+). u need to stop deleteing my answers ughh

Use the periodic table to select the element that best fits each of the following descriptions. which element below has properti

xenn [34]

Answer: Boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

Explanation:

Metals are defined as the elements which loose electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain positive charge and form cation. Example: Zinc (Zn), Aluminium (Al) , copper (Cu)

Non-metals are defined as the elements which gain electrons to attain stable electronic configuration. They attain negative charge and form anion. Example: Chlorine (Cl) , Sulphur (S)

Metalloids are defined as the elements which show properties of both metals and non-metals. There are 7 metalloids in the periodic table. They are Boron (B) , Silicon (Si) , Germanium (Ge) , Arsenic (As) , Antimony (Sb), Tellurium (Te) and Polonium (Po).

Thus boron is the element which has properties of both metals and nonmetals.

If 15.0 mL of phosphoric acid completely neutralizes 38.5 mL of 0.150 mol/L calcium hydroxide, what is the concentration of the

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

Let me give it a try.

H3PO4 + Ca(OH)2 = Ca3(PO4)2 + H2O

Balancing this reaction

2H3PO4 + 3Ca(OH)2 == Ca3(PO4)2 + 6H2O.

Moles= Molarity x Volume

Volume = 38.5ml = 0.0385L

Moles of Ca hydroxide = 0.150m/L x 0.0385L

(Notice the units canceling out...leaving moles).

=0.005775moles of Ca(OH)2.

From balanced reaction...

3moles of Ca(OH)2 completely reacts with 2moles of H3PO4

0.005775moles of Ca(OH)2 would completely react with....

= 0.005775 x 2/(3)

=0.00385moles of H3PO4.

Now we're looking for its Concentration in Mol/L

Molarity=Moles of solute/Volume of solution(in L)

Volume of solution assuming no other additions to the reaction = 15ml + 38.5ml =53.5ml =0.0535L

Molarity = 0.00385/0.0535

=0.072Mol/L.

If this is wrong

then Simply Try The formula for Mixing of solutions

C1V1 = C2V2

0.15 x 38.5 = C2 x (15+38.5)

C2 = 0.11M/L.

An atom of element X has one more shell of electrons than an atom of beryllium, but it has one less valance electron than beryll

irakobra [83]

The atomic number of Be is 4, and so it has 2 shells. There are valence electrons in the second, which is the outermost, shell of Be. To get the element with one more shell, there would be 3 shells on the new element, and 1 less valence electron, so the new element should have 1 valence electron. Sodium is the element with 3 shells, and one valence electron which fits perfectly into the description.
