Answer,

Add water to dissolve the salt solution.Shake the solution,oil and water are immiscible liquids therefore oil will not dissolve.Put the solution in a separating funnel and leave the solution undisturbed for a few minutes.Water is denser than oil there oil will come to the top.Power the lower layer of water in to a beaker.Boil the water until water turns into vapour leaving the salt behind.

Salt is ionic, and oil is covalent. If you add water, the salt will dissolve in the water, and the oil will float to the top. You could then skim the oil and start over with sugar. To double-check, you could even make sure the oil does not conduct electricity!

Entropy of a system decreases with decrease in Temperature T/F

Svet_ta [14]

Answer: The given statement is true.

Explanation:

Entropy means the measure of randomness present in a substance. That is, an increase in temperature will lead cause more motion in the particles of a substance more will be their kinetic energy.

As a result, there will occur more collisions due to which randomness of molecules will increase. Hence, there will be increase in entropy.

So, when we decrease the temperature then there will be decrease in motion of particles. As a result, lesser number of collisions will take place between them. Hence, degree of randomness will also decrease.

Thus, we can conclude the statement entropy of a system decreases with decrease in temperature, is true.

What is atomic mass, atomic number, isotopes and how are all these terms related to each other?

Airida [17]

Atomic mass deals with the number of protons and neutrons added together, atomic number deals with protons only, though isotopes can be explained like this, say you had a hydrogen atom it's one proton and one electron if you add a neutron to it, the hydrogen becomes Deuterium which is a isotope of hydrogen it's the same atom just a neutron added to it for a different atomic mass if only slightly changed

Carvone (C10H14O) is the main component of spearmint oil. It has a pleasant aroma and mint flavor. Carvone is often added to che

marta [7]

Answer: The mass of carbon in given amount of carvone is 47.52 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of carvone = 55.4 g

Molar mass of carvone = 150.22 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of carvone}=\frac{55.4g}{150.22g/mol}=0.369mol$

The chemical formula of carvone is $C_{10}H_{14}O$

This contains 10 moles of carbon atom, 14 moles of hydrogen atom and 1 mole of oxygen atom

Now, calculating the mass of carbon in carvone from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Moles of carbon = (10 × 0.396) = 3.96 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$3.96mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=(3.96mol\times 12g/mol)=47.52g$

Hence, the mass of carbon in given amount of carvone is 47.52 grams

At equilibrium the reactant and product concentrations are constant because a change in one direction is balanced by a change in

Anna [14]

Answer: a. The concentrations of the reactants and products have reached constant values

Explanation:

The reactions which do not go on completion and in which the reactant forms product and the products goes back to the reactants simultaneously are known as equilibrium reactions. For a chemical equilibrium reaction, equilibrium state is achieved when the rate of forward reaction becomes equal to rate of the backward reaction.

Equilibrium state is the state when reactants and products are present but the concentrations does not change with time and are constant.

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_{eq}$

K is the constant of a certain reaction when it is in equilibrium, while Q is the quotient of activities of products and reactants at any stage other than equilibrium of a reaction.

For a equilibrium reaction,

$A\rightleftharpoons B$

$K_{eq}=\frac{[B]}{[A]}$

Thus the correct answer is the concentrations of the reactants and products have reached constant values.

Equation balancing

meriva

Answer:

For a: The balanced equation is $2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

For c: The balanced equation is $2NaOH(s)+H_2SO_4(aq)\rightarrow Na_2SO_4(aq)+2H_2O(l)$

Explanation:

A balanced chemical equation is one where all the individual atoms are equal on both sides of the reaction. It follows the law of conservation of mass.
