Why do you think dark surfaces absorb radiation better than light surfaces?

1 answer:

7 0

Your answer→ <em>The lighter side absorbs less of the incident light, reflecting some of the energy. Darker materials also emit radiation more readily than light-colored materials, so they cool faster.</em>

When active metals such as magnesium are immersed in acid solution, hydrogen gas is evolved. Calculate the volume of H2(g) at 30

V125BC [204]

Answer:

The volume of H₂ (g) obtained is 22.4L

Explanation:

First of all, think the reaction:

2HCl (aq) + Zn (s) → ZnCl₂ (aq) + H₂ (g)

You have to add a 2, in the HCl to get ballanced.

Now we should know how many moles of each reactant, do we have.

Volume . Molarity = moles

Notice that volume is in mL, so I must convert to L.

275 mL = 0.275L

0.275L . 0.725mol/L = 0.2 moles of HCl

Molar mass of Zn: 65.41 g/m

50 g / 65.41 g/m = 0.764 moles

Ratio between reactants is 2:1, so I need the double of moles of HCl to react, and a half moles of Zn to react.

My limiting reactant is the HCl, for 0.764 moles of Zinc, I need 1.528 (0.764 .2) of HCl, and I only have 0.2 moles.

Ratio between HCl and H₂ is 1:1, so 0.2 HCl make 0.2 moles of gas

Now apply the Ideal Gas Law, to find out the volume

P. V = n . R . T

2 atm . V = 0.2 mol . 0.08206L atm/K mol . 273K

V = (0.2 mol . 0.08206L atm/K mol . 273K ) / 2 atm

V = 2.24 L

To protect yourself from consuming too much _____, you should limit your consumption of swordfish, king mackerel, and shark. a.

Serggg [28]

Answer:

b. mercury

Explanation:

Fishes and some other sea foods are are known to concentrate mercury in their bodies. Consumption of these products gradually accumulate mercury in the body over time.

More specifically, fishes like swordfish, king mackerel and shark are known to concentrate higher amount of mercury than other species of fishes. Hence, limiting their consumption will protect humans from mercury poisoning.

The correct option is b.

By how much will the water temperature increases if 1046 J of heat energy are added. The specific heat of water is 4.184 J/g • °

Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Option A

250 degrees Celcius

Explanation:

If 1046J of heat energy is added to water, the water will experience a rise in temperature, at a rate that is directly proportional to its specific heat capacity.

Mathematically, this can be seen as $Q=C\Delta T$

Where C = specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g • °C.

Q = heat energy = 1046 J

$\Delta T =1046/4.148=250 degrees Celcius$

Therefore, the increase in temperature that will be experienced, is for 250 degrees Celcius

Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

english:

Solid is the state in which matter maintains a certain volume and shape; liquid is the state in which matter conforms to the shape of its container, but varies only slightly in volume; gas is the state in which matter expands to fill the volume and shape of its container.

español:

Sólido es el estado en el que la materia mantiene cierto volumen y forma; el líquido es el estado en el que la materia se adapta a la forma de su recipiente, pero varía sólo ligeramente en volumen; el gas es el estado en el que la materia se expande para ocupar el volumen y la forma de su recipiente.
