Identify ways to reduce the risk of liquid bumping while heating.

1 answer:

7 0

The most common way of preventing bumping is by adding one or two boiling chips to the reaction vessel. However, these alone may not prevent bumping and for this reason it is advisable to boil liquids in a boiling tube, a boiling flask, or an Erlenmeyer flask.

As a form of energy, light has specific properties such as color and brightness. Some properties can only be seen with special t

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors

Explanation:

When light enters a prism, it experiences a phenomenon called 'refraction'.

Refraction occurs when light crosses the interface between two mediums with different optical density; when this happens, the light bends and also changes speed.

The angle at which the ray of light is refracted into the second medium depends on the optical density of the two mediums, but also on the wavelength of the light.

In particular, longer wavelengths (red color) are refracted the least, while shorter wavelengths (violet color) are refracted the most.

As a result, when white light (consisting of all the colors of visible light) enters into a prism, they different wavelengths are separated: therefore, white light separates into different colors.

So, the correct answer is

D. As white light passes through a prism , it bends and separates into different colors

When a nitrogen atom becomes an ion, the atom becomes a... A. Negative ion with a radius smaller than the radius of the atom B.

mr Goodwill [35]

Answer:

B. Negative ion with a radius larger than the radius of the atom

Explanation:

When a negative ion is formed, electrons are added to the atom. As electrons are added to the atom, the size of the electron cloud increases accordingly.

As a result of this, a negative ion is always larger than its corresponding atom. Hence, nitrogen ion must be larger than the nitrogen atom based on the facts stated above.

Write the lewis structure for mgi2. draw the lewis dot structure for mgi2. include all lone pairs of electrons.

viktelen [127]

Lewis Structure is drawn in following steps,

1) Calculate Number of Valence Electrons:

# of Valence electrons in Mg = 2
# of Valence electrons in I     = 7
# of Valence electrons in I     = 7
---------
Total Valence electrons = 16

2) Draw Mg as a central atom surround it by two atoms of Iodine.

3) Connect each Iodine atom to Mg, and subtract two electrons per bond. In this case we will subtract 4 electrons from total valence electrons. i.e.

Total Valence electrons 16
- Four electrons - 4
----------
    12

4) Now start adding the remaining 12 electrons on more electronegative atoms i.e. Iodine.

The final lewis structure formed is as follow,

You begin pouring sodium chloride into a glass of water. For a long time, the sodium chloride just dissolves in the water, but s

Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Option D: The water is saturated

Explanation:

Solubility is the term used to designate the maximum amount of a solute that can be dissolved in a given amount of solvent, at a given temperature and pressure.

At start, you begin with pure water in the glass. This water is a pure substance, not a solution.

When you begin pouring sodium chloride into the glass of water, a solution, i.e. a homogenous mixture of solute and solvent, is formed.

This solution, at first, is diuted, which means that it contanins just few grams (matter) of the solute dissolved.

As, more sodium chloride is dissolved, the solution becomes more concentrated but is unsaturated. At some point, the water cannot dissolve more sodium chloride, because it has reached the maximum amount that can contain at that temperature and pressure. Then, the solution is saturated.

You can tell that the water is saturated, ie it contaiins the maximum amount of sodium chloride that can be dissolved, by that amount of water, at the given temperature, because from that point, you will note that as you pour more sodium chloride, it begins to pile up at the bottom of the glass. Hence, the true statement is the letter D: the water is saturated.
