At the same temperature, steam burns are often more severe that water burns because of water's high HEAT OF VAPORIZATION.
Water possesses high heat of vaporization. The heat of vaporization refers to the amount of heat that is needed to convert a unit mass of water to gas. After getting to the boiling point, a lot of heat is still needed to be absorbed by a boiling water before it can be converted to the gaseous form. Thus, the heat that is inherent in the steam is greater than that which is found in the boiling water, that is why the steam causes more damages.
Answer:
Mass = 36 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of water formed = ?
Mass of hydrogen = 4.04 g
Mass of oxygen = 31.98 g
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Number of moles of hydrogen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 4.04 g/ 2 g/mol
Number of moles = 2.02 mol
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 31.98 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.0 mol
Now we will compare the moles of water with hydrogen and oxygen.
O₂ : H₂O
1 : 2
H₂ : H₂O
2 : 2
2.02 : 2.02
Number of moles of water formed by oxygen are less thus oxygen will limiting reactant.
Mass of water:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 2 mol × 18 g/mol
Mass = 36 g
Answer:
The metric system uses units such as meter, liter, and gram to measure length, liquid volume, and mass, just as the U.S. customary system uses feet, quarts, and ounces to measure these.
Volume: 1 liter is a little more than 1 quart
Mass: 1 kilogram is a little more than 2 pounds
Length: 1 centimeter is a little less than half an
Explanation:
This question is incomplete because the options are missing; here are the options:
Which of the following is LESS dense than water?
The spoon
The glass
The tablets
The bubbles
The correct answer to this question is The bubbles
Explanation:
In general, the density of materials and substances affects their buoyancy. This implies in water less dense materials will float and those with higher density will sink. In the situation presented, the only element that is less dense than water are bubbles; this is shown by the movement of the bubbles as these originate in the bottom of the glass of water but they rise to the surface, which shows they are less dense than water.
Answer:
See below
Explanation:
<u> Name </u> <u>Formula </u> <u> Major species </u> <u> </u>
Zinc iodide ZnI₂ H₂O(ℓ), I⁻(aq), Zn²⁺(aq),
Nitrogen(I) oxide N₂O H₂O(ℓ), N₂O(aq)
Sodium nitrite NaNO₂ H₂O(ℓ), Na⁺(aq), NO₂⁻(aq)
Glucose C₆H₁₂O₆ H₂O(ℓ), C₆H₁₂O₆(aq)
Nickel(II) iodide NiI₂ H₂O(ℓ), I⁻(aq), Ni²⁺(aq)
- Glucose and nitrogen(I) oxide are covalent compounds. They do not dissociate in solution.
- The compounds containing metals are ionic. They produce ions in solution.
- ZnI₂ and NiI₂ produce twice as many iodide ions as metal ions.
