explain what happens when anhydrous calcium chloride are exposed to the atmosphere for about two days​
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Calcium chloride is <u>deliquescent.</u> If exposed to air, it will absorb sufficient water from the air to allow it to dissolve. After a short while, instead of a white lump, you will have a pool of clear liquid.

(chem) which is more concentrated: 45.0 grams of HCOOH dissolved in 189 mL of water or 1.5 moles of CH↓2COOH dissolved in twice
Liula [17]

Answer:

CH3COOH would be more concentrated

Explanation:

The higher the concentration value, the more concentrated it is.

The relationship between concentration, moles and volume is given by the equation;

Concentration = No of moles / Volume

5.0 grams of HCOOH dissolved in 189 mL of water

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass = 5 / 46.03 = 0.1086 mol

Concentration = 0.1086 / 0.189 = 0.5746 mol/L

1.5 moles of CH3COOH dissolved in twice as much water

Volume = 2 * 189 = 378 ml = 0.378 L

Concentration = 1.5 / 0.378 = 3.9683 mol/L

Comparing both concentration values;

CH3COOH would be more concentrated

20 points! &lt; is what I chose. How did I do?

Greenhouse gases released from the burning of fossil fuels are responsible for global warming.

<h3>What is the atmosphere?</h3>

The atmosphere is the region of region of the planet above its surface area where gases envelop the planet.

Based on the effect of greenhouse gases on global warming;

  • Planet A has a higher surface temperature due to the higher amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas.
  • Methane is the main constituent of natural gas. Humans increase the contribute to increase in methane gas by raising cattle,
  • Pollutants come from both natural sources and human activities.
  • Sulfur Dioxide is produced by the combustion of fuels in automobiles. Once in the atmosphere, it combine with water to form acid precipitation.
  • Nitrogen and oxygen do not contribute to the greenhouse effect because they are  made up of 2 atom molecules that are bound tightly so they CANNOT vibrate to absorb energy.
  • Greenhouse gases contribute to global warming by absorbing infrared energy that reflects off Earth's surface and reemitting the energy in all directions. This keeps the infrared energy close to the Earth's surface.
  • Most of the greenhouse gases produced come from burning fossil fuels in factories, ships, cars, trains.

Therefore, pollutants such as greenhouse gases are responsible for global warming.

Consider the equilibrium: HCOOH(aq) + F-(aq) &lt;----&gt; HCOO-(aq) + HF (aq) Given that the Ka of HCOOH = 1.8 x 10-4 and the Ka
Aleks [24]

Hey there!:

K = Ka * Kb / Kw

Ka = 1.8*10⁻⁴

Kb = 10⁻¹⁴ / 6.8*10⁻⁴

K =  1.8*10⁻⁴ * ( 10⁻¹⁴/ 6.8*10⁻⁴ ) * ( 1 / 10⁻¹⁴ )

K =  = 1.8 / 6.8

K = 0.265

Answer A

Therefore:

K is less than on the forward reaction is not favorable .


Hope That helps!

What is an hydroxide solution commonly used in labs​
Ira Lisetskai [31]

sodium hydroxide (NAOH) a.k.a causic soda commonly used in labs​.

  • MOLAR MASS of naoh is 39.997 g/mol.
  • It is dry hard brittle, white stocks in large fused opaque white-stone like masses having a dense crystalline fracture in small pellets/flakes.
  • it is very delinquent  and one of the strongest base , acts as a saponifying agent which is used in industrial purposes.
  • It is an important industrial chemical as it is used on its own and is also used as a raw material in the production of other chemicals. The basis for the production of sodium hydroxide is the electrolysis of brine.
