Briefly describe the action of hardwater with soap​
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - hard water reacts to form the calcium or magnesium salt of the organic acid of the soap.

Explanation:

Soaps are made up of fatty acids or oils by treating with strong alkali and are salts of sodium and potassium. Hard water, on the other hand, has a high concentration of minerals in comparison to soft water. When hard water and soap are mixed together the salts of the minerals like Ca2+ and Mg2+ ions present in hard water react with fatty acids of the soap.

The sodium salts are changed to the salts of calcium and magnesium which are precipitated to an insoluble substance. The insoluble salts of the calcium or magnesium dirt stick on the clothes thus cleaning ability of soap is reduced.

What is 2,100 in Scientific notation
Verizon [17]
It is 2.1 x 10^3 because your base number needs to be in between 1 and 10, and the number you are converting is non-decimal, so the exponent is positive. It is 10^3 because you are moving the decimal 3 places to the right

Marrrta [24]

Question is incomplete, the complete question is as follows:

A student wants to examine a substance by altering the bonds within its molecules. Which of the following properties of the substance should the student examine?

A. Toxicity, because it can be observed by altering the state of the substance

B. Boiling point, because it can be observed by altering the state of the substance

C. Toxicity, because it can be observed by replacing the atoms of the substance with new atoms

D. Boiling point, because it can be observed by replacing the atoms of the substance with new atoms

Answer:

B.

Explanation:

A student can examine a substance without altering the bonds within the molecules by examining its boiling point.

The boiling point is the property of a substance, at which the substance changes its state, which is from solid to liquid, liquid to gas and others. So, examining the boiling point will alter the bonds within the molecules as the state of substance will change.

Hence, the correct answer is "B".

Arrange the three common unit cells in order from least dense to most dense packing. a. face-centered cubic < body-centered c
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

b. primitive cubic < body-centered cubic < face-centered cubic  

Explanation:

The coordination number is defined as <em>the number of atoms (or ions) surrounding an atom (or ion) in a crystal lattice</em>. Its value gives us a measure of how tightly the spheres are packed together. The larger the coordination number, the closer the spheres are to each other.

  • In the <u>primitive cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 6 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 6</u>.
  • In the <u>body-centered cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 8 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 12</u>.
  • In the <u>face-centered cubic</u>, each sphere is in contact with 12 spheres, so its <u>coordination number is 12</u>.

Therefore, the increasing order in density is the primitive cubic first, then the body-centered cubic, and finally the face-centered cubic.
