Slime flows like a liquid, but unlike familiar liquids (e.g., oil, water), its ability to flow, or viscosity, is not constant. So it's a fluid, but not a regular liquid. Scientists call a material that changes viscosity a non-Newtonian fluid. The technical explanation is that slime is a fluid that changes its ability to resist deformation according to shear or tensile stress.
What this means is, when you pour slime or let it ooze through your fingers, it has a low viscosity and flows like a thick liquid. When you squeeze a non-Newtonian slime, like oobleck, or pound it with your fist, it feels hard, like a wet solid. This is because applying stress squeezes the particles in the slime together, making it hard for them to slide against each other.
Most types of slime are also examples of polymers. Polymers are molecules made by linking together chains of subunits.
The specifics of how a type of slime works depends on its chemical composition, but the basic explanation is that chemicals are mixed to form polymers. The polymers act as a net, with molecules sliding against each other.
Two solutions are combined to make classic slime. One is diluted school glue, or polyvinyl alcohol in water. The other solution is borax (Na2B4O7.10H2O) in water.
Borax dissolves in water into sodium ions, Na+, and tetraborate ions.
The tetraborate ions react with water to produce the OH- ion and boric acid:
B4O72-(aq) + 7 H2O <—> 4 H3BO3(aq) + 2 OH-(aq)
Boric acid reacts with water to form borate ions:
H3BO3(aq) + 2 H2O <— > B(OH)4-(aq) + H3O+(aq)
Hydrogen bonds form between the borate ion and the OH groups of the polyvinyl alcohol molecules from the glue, linking them together to form a new polymer: slime.
Answer: 0.07868 mol H₂O
Explanation:
1) Chemical equation:
Cu₂O +H₂ → 2Cu + H₂O
2) mole ratios:
1 mol Cu₂O : 1 mol H₂ : 2 mol Cu : 1 mol H₂O
3) Convert 10.00 g of Cu to grams, using the atomic mass:
Atomic mass of Cu: 63.546 g/mol
number of moles = mass in grams / atomic mass = 10.00g / 63.546 g/mol
number of moles = 0.1574 mol
4) Use proportions
2mol Cu 0.1574 mol Cu
--------------- = ---------------------
1 mol H₂O x
⇒ x = 0.1574 mol Cu × 1 mol H₂O / 2mol Cu = 0.07868 mol H₂O
That is the answer
Answer:
Endothermic reaction chemical equation
Reactnt A + Reactant B + Heat (energy) ⇒ Products
Exothermic reaction chemical equation
Reactnt A + Reactant B ⇒ Products + Heat (energy)
Explanation:
Endothermic Reaction
An endothermic reaction is a reaction that reaction that requires heat before it would take place resulting in the absorption of heat from the surrounding that can be sensed by the coolness of the reacting system
An example of an endothermic reaction is a chemical cold pack that becomes cold when the chemical and water inside it reacts
Exothermic Reaction
An exothermic reaction is one that rekeases energy to the surroundings when it takes place. This is as a result of the fact that the combined heat energy of the reactants is more than the chemical heat energy of the products. An example of an exothermic reaction is a burning candle
