Tendency of some minerals to break along a smooth flat surface

Chemistry
1 answer:
shepuryov [24]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Cleavage

Explanation:

Cleavage is the tendency of a mineral to break along flat planar surfaces. They and are caused by the alignment of weaker bonds between atoms in the crystal structure. Cleavage planes are distinguished from fracture by being smooth, often with reflective surfaces.

The solubility of KCl is 3.7 M at 20 °C. Two beakers each contain 100. mL of saturated KCl solution: 100. mL of 4.0 M HCl is add
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

a)The Ksp was found to be equal to 13.69

Explanation:

Terminology

Qsp of a dissolving ionic solid — is the solubility product of the concentration of ions in solution.

Ksp however, is the solubility product of the concentration of ions in solution at EQUILIBRIUM with the dissolving ionic solid.

Note that if Qsp > Ksp , the solid at a certain temperature, will precipitate and form solid. That means the equilibrium will shift to the left in order to attain or reach equilibrium (Ksp).

Step-by-step solution:

To solve this: 

#./ Substitute the molar solubility of KCl as given into the ion-product equation to find the Ksp of KCl.

#./ Find the total concentration of ionic chloride in each beaker after the addition of HCl. We pay attention to the amount moles present at the beginning and the moles added.

#./ Find the Qsp value to to know if Ksp is exceeded. If Qsp < Ksp, nothing will precipitate.

a) The equation of solubility equilibrium for KCL is thus;

KCL_(s) ---> K+(aq) + Cl- (aq)

The solubility of KCl given is 3.7 M.

Ksp= [K+][Cl-] = (3.7)(3.7) =13.69

The Ksp was found to be equal to 14.

In pure water KCl

Ksp =13.69 KCl =[K+][Cl-]

Let x= molar solubility [K+],/[Cl-] :. × , x

Ksp =13.69 = [K+][Cl-] = (x)(x) = x²

x= √ 13.69 = 3.7 M moles of KCl requires to make 100mL saturated solutio

37M moles/L

The Ksp was found to be equal to 14.

4.0 M HCl = KCl =[K+][Cl-]

Let y= molar solubility :. y, y+4

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (y)(y*+4)

* - rule of thumb

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (y)(y*+4)= y(4)

13.69=4y:. y= 3.42 moles/100mL

y= 34.2moles/L

8 M HCl = KCl =[K+][Cl-]

Let b= molar solubility :. B, b+8

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (b)(b*+8)

* - rule of thumb

Ksp =13.69= [K+][Cl-] = (b)(b*+8)= b(8)

13.69=8b:. b= 1.71 moles/100mL

17.1 moles/L

Therefore in a solution with a common ion, the solubility of the compound reduces dramatically.

A burner on a stove produces temperature. thermal energy. hotness. fire energy.
Aleksandr [31]

Question:

The options are;

a. Temperature

b. Thermal Energy

c. Hotness

d. Fire Energy

Answer:

The correct option is;

b. Thermal energy

Explanation:

A burner on a stove produces thermal energy which is used to raise the temperature of the metal container (kettle, pot or pans) in which items are placed for heating.

Thermal energy is the internal energy of the system given off as heat which when transferred from one body to another causes the temperature of the receiving body to rise. Thermal energy in a burner is given off when the gaseous fuel reacts or burns in the presence of or with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor in an exothermic reaction.

4C + 5H₂ + 13/2O₂ (-125 kJ) → C₄H₁₀ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O (-2877 kJ).

What is the mass of sodium (Na) in 50 grams of table salt (NaCl)? Show your work.
Margaret [11]

Answer:

19 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

Sodium Chloride (table salt) = 50 g

Amount of sodium (Na) = ?

Solution:

Molecular weight calculation:

NaCl = 23 + 35.5

NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Mass contributed by Sodium = 23 g

calculate the mole percent composition of sodium (Na) in sodium Chloride.

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

Percent of sodium (Na) = 23 / 58.5 x 100

Percent of sodium (Na) = 39.3 %

It means that for ever gram of sodium chloride there is 0.393 g of Na is present.

So,

for the 50 grams of table salt (NaCl) the mass of Na will be

mass of sodium (Na) = 0.393 x 50 g

mass of sodium (Na) = 19 g
