Sodium chloride has the highest melting point while iodine has the least melting point.

The melting points of solid substances depends on the nature of intermolecular forces that exists in the substance. The stronger the magnitude of intermolecular forces in a substance, the higher its melting point.

The order of melting points of the solids shown in question is as follows;

1st - Sodium chloride
2nd - sucrose
3rd - paraffin
4th - Iodine

Sodium chloride has the highest melting points because it is an ionic substance. Among the molecular sucrose and paraffin, sucrose has a higher melting point than sucrose because it has a greater molar mass. Iodine, a molecular substance has the least molar mass and the least melting point in the list.

My guess would be "B) they were produced by volcanoes" because hawaii has a bunch of volcanoes and volcanoes can produce extra land. While the other answers wouldn't make sense. Definitely B.

What mass of calcium carbonate is produced when 250 mL of 6.0 M sodium carbonate is added to 750 mL of 1.0 M calcium fluoride

Savatey [412]

Given:

Volume of Na2CO3 = 250 ml = 0.250 L

Molarity of Na2CO3 = 6.0 M

Volume of CaF2 = 750 ml = 0.750 L

Molarity of CaF2 = 1.0 M

To determine:

The mass of CaCO3 produced

Explanation:

Na2CO3 + CaF2 → CaCO3 + 2NaF

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

1 mole of Na2CO3 reacts with 1 moles of Caf2 to produce 1 mole of caco3

Moles of Na2CO3 present = V * M = 0.250 L * 6.0 moles/L = 1.5 moles

Moles of CaF2 present = V* M = 0.750 * 1 = 0.750 moles

CaF2 is the limiting reagent

Thus, # moles of CaCO3 produced = 0.750 moles

Molar mass of CaCO3 = 100 g/mol

Mass of CaCO3 produced = 0.750 moles * 100 g/mol = 75 g

Ans: Mass of CaCO3 produced = 75 g
