Which of the following is not a characteristic of a metal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
jolli1 [7]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

B. Poor conductor.

Explanation:

It cannot be A, as only 1 metal is not solid at room temp.

It cannot be C, as most metals are ductile.

It cannot be D, as most metals are malleable.

This leaves B, which is not true about metals, as a lot are very good conductors.

For the reaction represented by the equation cl2 + 2kbr ® 2kcl + br2, calculate the percentage yield if 200. g of chlorine react
alexgriva [62]
The  %  yield if 200g   of chlorine  react  with  excess Potassium bromide to  produce  410g of  bromine  is calculated as below

%  yield =  actual  yield/theoretical yield  x100
the  actual yield = 410 grams

calculate the  theoretical yield
by first  calculate the moles of chlorine used

mole=  mass/molar  mass
molar  mass of Cl2 =  35.5 x2= 71 g/mol

moles=  200g/71g/mol  = 2.82  moles

cl2 +2 KBr = 2KCl  +Br2

by use  of mole ratio between Cl2  to Br2  which is 1:1  the  moles of  Br2 is also = 2.82  moles

theoretical  mass =  moles x molar mass
molar mass of Br2= 79.9 x2= 159.8 g/mol

moles= 2.82g x 159.8 g/mol = 450.64 grams

% yield is therefore = 410g/450.64 x100 = 90.98 %

Salt water can be desalinated by distillation. How much energy is needed to convert 175 g of salt water at 28.0 °C to water vapo
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

\Delta H=4.63x10^{5}J=463kJ

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we find the following states:

a. Liquid salt water at 28.0 °C.

b. Liquid salt water at 102.5 °C.

c. Vapor salt water at 102.5 °C.

The first process (1) is to heat the liquid water from 28.0 °C to 102.5 °C and the second one (2) to vaporize the liquid salt water. In such a way, each process has an amount of energy that when added, yields the total energy for the process as shown below:

\Delta H=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2\\\Delta H=mCp\Delta T+m\Delta _VH\\\Delta H=175g*5.19\frac{J}{g*K}*(375.65K-301.15K)+175g*2.26\frac{kJ}{g} *\frac{1000J}{1kJ} \\\Delta H=4.63x10^{5}J=463kJ

Best regards.

Justin B. Believes that the temperature lowering during the fall months is what causes the color of the leaves to change. He set
Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

This question is incomplete, the remaining part of the question is:

What is the control group, independent variable and dependent variable?

Control group: Plants placed in 80 degree rooms

Independent variable: Change in temperature

Dependent variable: Change in color of leaves

Explanation:

The independent variable in a scientific experiment is the variable that the experimenter controls or manipulates in order to bring about a change in the dependent variable. In this experiment, the variable manipulated by Justin B is the TEMPERATURE CHANGE.

On the other hand, a variable is said to be dependent if it is the variable that responds to a change made to the independent variable or rather it is the outcome. In this experiment, Justin B is trying to see the outcome on the color change in leaves when exposed to a low temperature, hence, COLOR CHANGE IN LEAVES is the dependent variable.

Control group of an experiment is the group that receives no experimental treatment. It is the group the experimenter considers normal and hence is comparing with his experimental group. In this experiment, Justin B believes the leaves change color in a low temperature, hence, he placed some plants in a lower temperature (60 degree) in order to compare them with when the plants are placed in a higher temperature (80 degree). As far as this experiment is concerned, the plants placed in 80 degrees temperature are believed by Justin B not to undergo color change, hence, they are the CONTROL GROUP while the group he placed in 60 degrees temperature are what he is interested in, making them the EXPERIMENTAL GROUP
