Answer:
the attractive forces keep the particles together tightly enough so that the particles do not move past each other.
Explanation:
In the solid the particles vibrate in place.
H2O is the missing reactant.
Just a caveat: this equation isn’t balanced.
For a hydrocarbon, the combustion reactions are the following:
C + O₂ --> CO₂
H₂ + 1/2 O₂ --> H₂O
The molar mass of CO₂ is 44 g/mol while C is 12 g/mol. Let's solve for amount of C in hydrocarbon.
Mass of C = (14.1 g CO₂)(1mol/44g)(1 mol C/1 mol CO₂)(12 g/mol) = 3.845 g C
So, that means that the mass of hydrogen is:
Mass of H = 4.4 - 3.845 = 0.555 g
Moles C = 3.845/12 = 0.32042
Moles H = 0.555/1 = 0.555
Divide both by the smaller value, 0.32042.
C: 0.32042/0.32042 = 1
H: 0.555/0.32042 = 1.732
We have to get an answer that is closest to a whole number. Let's try multiplying both with 4.
C: 1*4 = 4
H: 1.732*4 = 6.93≈7
<em>Thus, the empirical formula is C₄H₇.</em>
Answer:
Fe is the anode and Sn is the cathode; NO3- ions flow into half-cell compartment (A) and Na ions flow into half-cell compartment (B).
Explanation:
The purpose of a salt bridge in a voltaic cell is not to move electrons from the electrolyte, it's main function is the maintenance of charge balance between the half cells .The electrons flow from the anode to the cathode.
The iron half cell which has a higher reduction potential serves as anode. Iron atoms give up electrons to form positive ions according to the equation;
Fe(s)-----> Fe^2+(aq) + 2e
Hence there will be an excess of positive ions in the anode (compartment A). NO3^- ions from the salt bridge will migrate towards this compartment to ensure charge balance.
Similarly, in compartment B(cathode) Sn^2+ ions will accept two electrons according to the reaction;
Sn^2+(aq) + 2e ------> Sn(s)
This reaction causes a depletion of positive ions in compartment B, hence Na^+ from the salt bridge move towards this compartment to ensure charge balance.
Explanation:
To reduce costs, powdered aluminium oxide is dissolved in molten cryolite. This ionic compound melts at a lower temperature than aluminium oxide, reducing costs.
