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 hydrogen role in nuclear fusion?
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Fusion powers the Sun and stars as hydrogen atoms fuse together to form helium, and matter is converted into energy. Hydrogen, heated to very high temperatures changes from a gas to a plasma in which the negatively-charged electrons are separated from the positively-charged atomic nuclei (ions).

1. If you have a sample of gas at a pressure of 16 atm, what will the pressure be if the volume is halved?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

1. The pressure will be 32 atm, twice the initial pressure.

2. The pressure will be 1.83 atm, one third of the initial pressure.

Explanation:

Boyle's law is one of the gas laws that relates the volume and pressure of a certain quantity of gas kept at a constant temperature.

This law says that "The volume occupied by a given gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure." This means that if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases.

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

Pressure * Volume = constant

or P * V = k

Ahora es posible suponer que tienes un cierto volumen de gas V1 que se encuentra a una presión P1 al comienzo del experimento. Si varias el volumen de gas hasta un nuevo valor V2, entonces la presión cambiará a P2, y se cumplirá:

P1*V1=P2*V2

1. In this case:

  • P1= 16 atm
  • V1
  • P2= ?
  • V2= V1÷2= \frac{V1}{2} because the volume is halved.

So:

16 atm*V1= P2* \frac{V1}{2}

Solving:

\frac{16 atm*V1*2}{V1}=P2

16 atm*2= P2

32 atm= P2

<u><em>The pressure will be 32 atm, twice the initial pressure.</em></u>

2. Now

  • P1= 5.5 atm
  • V1
  • P2= ?
  • V2= V1*3 because the volume is tripled.

So:

5.5 atm*V1= P2* V1*3

Solving:

\frac{5.5 atm*V1}{3*V1}=P2

\frac{5.5 atm}{3}= P2

1.83 atm= P2

<u><em>The pressure will be 1.83 atm, one third of the initial pressure.</em></u>
