1-There are 18 volcanoes in the US with the potential to erupt again, all of them in Alaska, Hawaii and the West Coast states.

2-Rubies and sapphires are actually the same mineral - corundum. The basic chemical formula of corundum is Al2O3, but traces of iron stain the mineral red (ruby) while traces of chromium or titanium stain the mineral blue (sapphire).

3-Rubies, sapphires and emeralds are all more rare than diamonds.

4-Not all diamonds are transparent. They come in a variety of colors (called "fancies"), including yellow, green, blue, orange, brown ("champagne"), purple, grey, black (called carbanado, recently shown to be meteroic), milky white, pink, and red. Red is by far the rarest.

5-Antacids taste like chalk because they ARE chalk, a.k.a. calcium carbonate.


Hope this helps, Give a thanks ! Haha

Based on the balanced equation 2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O calculate the number of excess reagent units remaining when 52 C2H2 mol
erica [24]

Answer:

20 molecules of oxygen gas remains after the reaction.

Explanation:

2C_2H_2 + 5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2 + 2H_2O

Molecules of ethyne = 52

Molecules of oxygen gas = 150

According to reaction, 2 molecules of ethyne reacts with 5 molecules of oxygen gas.

Then 52 molecules of ethyne will react with:

\frac{5}{2}\times 52=130 molecules of oxygen gas.

As we can see that we have 150 molecules of oxygen gas, but 52 molecules of ethyne will react with 130 molecules of oxygen gas. So, this means that ethyne is a limiting reagent and oxygen gas is an excessive reagent.

Remaining molecules of recessive reagent = 150 - 130 = 20

20 molecules of oxygen gas remains after the reaction.

Show the mechanism for the following reaction conducted at –5 °C in CCl4: cyclohexene bromine yields a dibromocyclohexane Draw w
Darya [45]

Answer:

See attachment.

Explanation:

In the first step, a cyclic structure with a positive bromine is formed. The bromine shares the positive charge with the two carbons that it is bonded to, so the carbons are partially positive.

The second bromine atom then attacks the carbon center, coming in from below the first bromine atom ("backside attack") where the antibonding orbital of the second bromine atom is.

The stereochemistry of the mechanism causes the final product to be an anti-dibromocyclohexane.

It is possible for a particular element to have various numbers of neutrons. True False
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

  • <em><u>True</u></em>

Explanation:

Every element is constituted by atoms with the same atomic number, which is the number of protons in their nuclei. So, all the atoms of a same element have the same number of protons.

For instance, the element sodium has atomic number 11, and all its atoms have 11 protons.

The atomic number identifies uniquely every element.

In the atomic nuclei there are protons and neutrons. Neutrons can vary from one atom of a particular element to another atom of the same element. That is what the term isotope accounts for. Isotopes are atoms with the same atomic number and different number of neutrons.

Most elements have different isotopes. The atomic mass of fifferent isotopes of a particular element will differ among them, because the neutrons account for the mass.
