Answer:

Lead is added to warm dilute nitric acid. When the carbonate has reacted with the warm acid, more carbonate is added until the carbonate is in excess.

Answer:

Nitric acid is used for the production of ammonium nitrate, a major component of fertilizers. It is also used for producing explosives like nitroglycerin and trinitrotoluene (TNT) and for oxidizing metals.

Answer:

  • <u><em>It will be less than 26 °C as water has a relatively higher specific heat than sand.</em></u>

Explanation:

The <em>specific heat </em>of a substance is the amount of heat energy absorbed by one unit of mass of the substance when its temperature increases one unit.

From that, you can derive the equation for the specific heat of a substance:

  • specific heat = heat / (mass × ΔT)

Thus, assuming that all the heat provided by the lamp to both samples is the same and, as given, the amount (mass) of both samples is also the same, you have that the specific heat of the samples will be:

  • specific heat = constant / ΔT

So, specific heat and ΔT are inversely related.

It is known that water has a higher specific heat than sand (that is why the sand on the shore of a beach is, during the day, hotter than the water and your feet get burned when you walk on a sandy beach on a sunny day).

Then, since the specific heat of water is greater than the specific heat of sand, the increase of temperature of water will be lower and, consequently, water will reach a lower final temperature than sand, when equal amounts of water and sand are heated as described in the experiment. This is the second choice: the final temperature of water is less than 26°C as water has a relatively higher specific heat than water.

The normal freezing point of a certain liquid
stepladder [879]

Answer : The molal freezing point depression constant of X is 4.12^oC/m

Explanation :  Given,

Mass of urea (solute) = 5.90 g

Mass of X liquid (solvent) = 450.0 g

Molar mass of urea = 60 g/mole

Formula used :  

\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m\\\\T^o-T_s=i\times K_f\times\frac{\text{Mass of urea}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of urea}\times \text{Mass of X liquid}}

where,

\Delta T_f = change in freezing point

\Delta T_s = freezing point of solution = -0.5^oC

\Delta T^o = freezing point of liquid X= 0.4^oC

i = Van't Hoff factor = 1  (for non-electrolyte)

K_f = molal freezing point depression constant of X = ?

m = molality

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

[0.4-(-0.5)]^oC=1\times k_f\times \frac{5.90g\times 1000}{60g/mol\times 450.0g}

k_f=4.12^oC/m

Therefore, the molal freezing point depression constant of X is 4.12^oC/m

Which set contains non-equivalent members?A) enthalpy and heat contentB) endothermic reaction and +HC) exothermic reaction and -
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Here in this question, what we will do is to select which of the pairs that do not correlate.

A. Enthalpy and heat content

This two terms are at par with each other. By definition, the enthalpy of a system simply is the total amount of heat content it has.

B. Endothermic reaction and +H

These two terms are at par with each other. An endothermic reaction is one in which heat is absorbed from the surroundings. It has a positive value for the heat content i.e the enthalpy is positive and thus H is positive.

C. Exothermic reaction and -H

An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released to the environment. It usually has a negative value for the enthalpy and thus the value of H is negative.

D. High energy and High Stability

These two terms are not at par. When an entity has or is of high energy, it is usually unstable. An entity at a higher energy level will not be stable until it goes to a lower level of energy.

Thus higher energy level is associated with lesser stability while lower energy levels are associated with higher stability. The lesser the energy of an entity, the higher its stability.

This makes the option our answer.
