The temperature that must be to freeze the solution would be -21.1 ° C.

<h3>How to calculate the freezing temperature of this solution?</h3>

To calculate the freezing temperature we must take into account the following information.

Solution with a salt concentration of 10% is frozen at -6°C
Solution with a salt concentration of 20% is frozen at -16°C
Solution with a higher concentration is frozen at -21.1°C

According to the above, it can be inferred that the puddle has a 50% concentration of salt because they had 12 kg of water and 6 kg of salt.

So the lowest freezing temperature would be 21.1°C because the puddle is 50% concentrated.

Note: This question is incomplete because there is some missing information. Here is the missing information:

A 10% salt solution freezes at about 20°F (-6°C), and a 20% solution freezes at 2°F (-16°C).
The lowest freezing point obtainable for salt solutions is −21.1 °C

If you were asked to convert 25 mg to the unit hg, which of the following would be the first fraction used in the conversion? te

NemiM [27]

The conversion factor is added to the original given unit so that you can end up with the final unit. Basically, the conversion unit does not change the value because the factor is just equal to 1. You just manipulate the units by cancelling them.

Among the given choices, the fraction which is equal to 1 is 10⁻³ g/ 1 mg, because there are 1,000 mg per 1 g. In reverse, that would be 10⁻³ of a gram.

The first excited electronic energy level of the helium atom is 3.13 x 10-18 J above the ground level. Estimate the temperature

salantis [7]

Answer:

75603.86473 K

Explanation:

Given that:

The 1st excited electronic energy level of He atom = 3.13 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

The objective of this question is to estimate the temperature at which the ratio of the population will be 5.0 between the first excited state to the ground state.

The formula for estimating the ratio of population in 1st excited state to the ground state can be computed as:

$\dfrac{N_2}{N_1} = e ^{^{-\dfrac{(E_2-E_1)}{KT}}} = e ^{^{-\dfrac{(\Delta E)}{KT}}}$

From the above equation:

Δ E = energy difference = 3.13 × 10⁻¹⁸ J

k = Boltzmann constant = 1.38 × 10⁻²³ J/K

$\dfrac{N_2}{N_1} = 0.5$

Thus:

$0.05 =e^{^{ -\dfrac{3.13 \times 10^{-18} \ J}{1.38\times 10^{-23 \ J/K}\times T}}}$

$In (0.05) = { -\dfrac{3.13 \times 10^{-18} \ J}{1.38\times 10^{-23 \ J/K}\times T}}}$

$-3.00 = { -\dfrac{3.13 \times 10^{-18} \ J}{1.38\times 10^{-23 \ J/K}\times T}}}$

$-3.00 = -226811.5942 \times \dfrac{1}{T}$

$T = \dfrac{-226811.5942}{-3.00 }$

T = 75603.86473 K

Why do scorpions glow on a black light?

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

All scorpions fluoresce under ultraviolet light, such as an electric black light or natural moonlight. The blue-green glow comes from a substance found in the hyaline layer, a very thin but super tough coating in a part of the scorpion's exoskeleton called the cuticle

The bond between sodium and chlorine in the compound sodium chloride (NaCl) is a/an:

Deffense [45]

The classic case of ionic bonding, the sodium chloride molecule forms by the ionization of sodium and chlorine atoms and the attraction of the resulting ions. An atom of sodium has one 3s electron outside a closed shell, and it takes only 5.14 electron volts of energy to remove that electron.
