They can still be effected it large quantities of soap are added to water

because more soap eliminates the effect the minerals in hard water has on

its cleaning capacity.

Hard water contains minerals such as

  • Calcium
  • Magnesium
  • Iron etc.

They reduce the cleaning capacity of the soap. This is why soft water is

preferably used as it doesn't contain these minerals.

When more soap is added, the effect of the minerals reduces thereby

bringing about very little or no effect on the cleaning capacity of the soap.

Explanation:

Ordinary water does not remove dirt from clothes or skin because the dirt present is oily or greasy in nature. Soaps are one of the most commonly used cleansing agents and are capable of reacting with water to remove dirt. They are either animal origin or plant in origin.

Chemically, they are water soluble sodium or potassium salts of higher fatty acids such as stearic acid, palmitic acid or oleic acid. Fatty acids are found in fats and oils. When fat or oil is treated with alkali such as caustic soda or caustic potash soap and glycerin are produced.

What is the vapor pressure of an aqueous solution made up of 60.0g of urea (CH4N2O) in 180g of water? the vapor pressure of wate
djyliett [7]
To get the answer you use the Law of Raoult.


Raoult's law states that the decrease of the vapor pressure of a liquid is proportional to the molar fraction of the solute.


ΔP = Pa * Xa


Here Pa = 0.038 atm


And Xa = N a / (Na + Nb), where Na is number of moles of A and Nb is number of moles of b


Na = mass of urea / molar mass of urea =  60 g / (molar mass of CH4N2O)


molar mass of CH4N2O = 12 g/mol + 4*1g/mol + 2*14 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 60 g/mol


Na = 60 g / 60 g/mol = 1 mol


Nb = mass of water / molar mass of water = 180g / 18g/mol = 10 mol


Xa = 1 mol / (10 mol + 1 mol) = 1/11 =0.09091


ΔP = Pb * Xa = 0.038 atm * 0.09091 =  0.0035 atm


Then, the final vapor pressure of water is Pb - ΔP = 0.038atm - 0.0035atm = 0.035 atm.


 Answer: 0.035 atm

I need help with these questions, please!
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

1. Ionic bond

2. High melting point and high boiling point for ionic bonds while covalent bonds have low melting and boiling point.

3. The similarity is that ionic and covalent bonding lead to the creation of stable molecules.

4. 4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

5. It uses the process of fission.

6. Fission involves the splitting of radioactive elements into smaller particles/compounds while Fusion involves combining of two or more atomic nuclei to form one or more different atomic nuclei and subatomic particles.

7. Nuclear power plants produce little to no greenhouse gas.

Nuclear power plants produce a large amount of energy for a small mass of fuel.

Nuclear is less expensive.

After an electric sign is turned on, the temperature of its glass goes from 23.5°C to 65.5°C. The sign’s glass has a mass of 905
julia-pushkina [17]

The sign's glass absorbed 25466.7 J

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The temperature of glass :  23.5 °C to 65.5 °C

mass = 905 g

the specific heat capacity = 0.67 J/g °C

Required

Heat absorbed

Solution

Heat absorbed by sign's glass can be formulated :

\tt Q=m.c.\Delta T

ΔT=65.5 - 23.5 = 42

\tt Q=905\times 0.67\times 42\\\\Q=\boxed{\bold{25466.7~J}}

Given following electron configurations, 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s24d9 and 1s22s22p63s23p64s23d104p65s14d10.
marusya05 [52]

Explanations:- Part 1: We could count the total number of electrons by looking at the electron configurations. Both of these electrons configurations have 47 electrons. If we look at the periodic table then 47 is the atomic number of silver. So, the name of the element is silver and its represented as Ag.

Part 2: As per the rule, Completely filled and half filled orbitals are more stable. First electron configuration has 9 electrons in 4d and we know that d is more stable if it has 5 electrons(half filled) or it has 10 electrons(full filled).

For stability reasons, one of the electron from 5s goes to 4d and for this reason the second electron configuration is found most often in nature for silver.

Few other examples are Cr and Cu.
