Answer:

Services raise the pH in the hair to a alkaline state in order to soften and swell the hair shaft. Disulfide, hydrogen, salt. Side bonds are responsible for the strength and elasticity of the hair. Altering these is what make wet setting, thermal styling, permanent waving, curl reforming, and relaxing possible

A pH of 7 is neutral, a pH below 7 is acidic, and pH above 7 is alkaline. ... Chemical Texturizers raise the pH of the hair to an alkaline state in order to soften and swell the hair shaft. This action lifts the cuticle layer, and allows the solution to reach the cortex layer where restructuring takes place.

When a solution forms, what interactions between particles are involved? Which are exothermic? Which are endothermic?

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

There are three types of interactions involved between the particles when solution are formed.

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

1 : Solute - solute interaction:

It is the inter-molecular attraction between the solute particles.

2 : Solute - solvent interaction:

It involve the inter-molecular attraction between solvent and solute particles.

3 : Solvent - solvent interaction:

It involve the intermolecular attraction between solvent particles.

Solutions are formed if the intermolecular attraction between solute particles are similar to the attraction between solvent particles.

Exothermic process:

The process will exothermic when solute solvent bonds are formed with the release of energy and energy required to brake the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are less.

Endothermic process:

The process will be endothermic when energy required to break the solute-solute particles and solvent solvent particles are higher than energy released when solute solvent bonds are formed .

Different kinds of wood have different densities. The density of american white oak wood is generally 0.77 g/cm3. If Jim grabs a

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

m= 29.645 g

Explanation:

Density:

Density is equal to the mass of substance divided by its volume.

Units:

SI unit of density is Kg/m3.

Other units are given below,

g/cm3, g/mL , kg/L

Formula:

D=m/v

D= density

m=mass

V=volume

Symbol:

The symbol used for density is called rho. It is represented by ρ. However letter D can also be used to represent the density.

Given data:

density of wood = 0.77 g/cm³

volume= 38.5 cm³

mass= ?

Solution:

d= m/v

m= d × v

m= 0.77 g/cm³× 38.5 cm³

m= 29.645 g

If the percent yield for the following reaction is 75.0%, and 25.0 g of NO₂ are consumed in the reaction, how many grams of nitr

victus00 [196]

Answer:

17.1195 grams of nitric acid are produced.

Explanation:

$3NO_2+H_2O\rightarrow 2HNO_3+NO$

Moles of nitrogen dioxide :

$\frac{25.0 g}{56 g/mol}=0.5434 mol$

According to reaction 3 moles of nitrogen dioxides gives 2 moles of nitric acid.

Then 0.5434 moles of nitrogen dioxides will give:

$\frac{2}{3}\times 0.5434 mol=0.3623 mol$ of nitric acid.

Mass of 0.3623 moles of nitric acid :

$0.3623 mol\times 63 g/mol=22.8260 g$

Theoretical yield = 22.8260 g

Experimental yield = ?

$\%Yield=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}}\times 100$

$75\%=\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{22.8260 g}$

Experimental yield of nitric acid = 17.1195 g

How many U.S. gallons are there in a cubic mile? The total proven oil reserves of the U.S. are roughly 30 x 10°bbl. How many cub

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

1 cubic mile = 1.101 * 10^12 US gallons

1 US bbl oil = 42 US gallons = 3.8143*10^ -11 cubic miles

Explanation:

The number of the exponent of the oil reserve is not very well shown in the question so, I provide you the conversion of bbl oil into cubic mile, the only thing you have to do is multiply the number of bbls of the reserve for the conversion in cubic miles and you'll have the answer.
