What is the difference between a conductor and an insulator?

1 answer:

5 0

A conductor is what helps heat or electricity pass through an object. Examples of conductors are, silver, iron, aluminum, etc..

An insulator does the opposite and instead, stops either from going through. Examples of an insulator is paper, wood, rubber, etc.

Carbordum is silicon carbide SiC a very hard material used as an abrasive on sand paper and in other applications. it is prepare

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

4.5 kilograms of silicon dioxide is required to produce 3.00 kg of SiC.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction between silicon dioxide and carbon at high temperature is given as:

$SiO_2+3C\rightarrow SiC+2CO$

1 mole silicon dioxide reacts with 3 moles of carbon to give 1 moles of silicon carbide and 2 moles of carbon monoxide.

Mass of SiC = 3.00kg = 3000.00 g

1 kg = 1000 g

Molecular mass of SiC = 40 g/mol

Moles of SiC = $\frac{3000.00 g}{40 g/mol}= 75 mol$

According to reaction, 1 mole of SiC is produced from 1 mole of silicon dioxide.

Then 75 moles of SiC will be produce from:

$\frac{1}{1}\times 75 mol=75 mol$ of silicon dioxide.

mass of 75 moles of silicon dioxde:

$75 mol\times 60 g/mol=4500 g=4.5 kg$

4.5 kilograms of silicon dioxide is required to produce 3.00 kg of SiC.

Re-order each list in the table below, if necessary, so that the atoms or ions in it are listed in order of decreasing size.

Serjik [45]

Answer: Na, S, Cl

Explanation:

Atomic size decreases as one moves from left to right on the periodic table with elements in the same period. This is as a result of the electrons increasing in the outer circle and thus being drawn to the protons in the nucleus which will lead to the outer shell area decreasing.

Sodium (Na) comes before Sulfur (S) which comes before Chlorine (S) so this is the decreasing order as they are all in the same period.
