What is convection? What happens to heat during it?

Chemistry

Studentka2010 [4]3 years ago

Answer:

CONVECTION-- Thermal energy is transferred from hot places to cold places by convection. Convection occurs when warmer areas of a liquid or gas rise to cooler areas in the liquid or gas. Cooler liquid or gas then takes the place of the warmer areas which have risen higher.

What is the percent composition of N H S O in (NH4)2SO4
Lena [83]

Answer:

The percent composition is 21% N, 6% H, 24% S and 49% O.

Explanation:

1st) The molar mass of (NH4)2SO4 is 132g/mol, and it represents the 100% of the mass composition.

In 1 mole of (NH4)2SO4, there are:

- 2 moles of N.

- 8 moles of H.

- 1 mole of S.

- 4 moles of O.

2nd) It is necessary to calculate the mass of each element, multiplying its molar mass by the number of moles:

- 2 moles of N (14g/mol) = 28g

- 8 moles of H (1g/mol) = 8g

- 1 mole of S (32g/mol) = 32g

- 4 moles of O (16g/mol) = 64g

3rd) With a mathematical rule of three we can calculate the percent composition of each element in the molecule of (NH4)2SO4:

\begin{gathered} \text{ Nitrogen:} \\ 132g-100\% \\ 28g-x=\frac{28g*100\%}{132g} \\ x=21\% \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{ Hydrogen:} \\ 132g-100\operatorname{\%} \\ 8g-x=\frac{8g*100\operatorname{\%}}{132g} \\ x=6\% \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{ Sulfur:} \\ 132g-100\operatorname{\%} \\ 32g-x=\frac{32g*100\operatorname{\%}}{132g} \\ x=24\% \end{gathered}\begin{gathered} \text{ Oxygen:} \\ 100\%-21\%-6\%-24\%=49\% \\  \\  \end{gathered}

In this case, we can calculate the percent composition of Oxygen by subtracting the other percentages, since the total must be 100%.

So, the percent composition is 21% N, 6% H, 24% S and 49% O.

What’s the Difference between attractive forces and ionic/covalent/metallic bonds
Deffense [45]

Answer:

Explanation:The main difference between ionic covalent and metallic bonds is their formation; ionic bonds form when one atom provides electrons to another atom whereas covalent bonds form when two atom shares their valence electrons and metallic bonds form when a variable number of atoms share a variable number of electrons in a metal lattice.

What is the mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that
astraxan [27]

Answer:

The mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that contain 22.9% NaOH by mass=0.882

Explanation:

We are given that

Aqueous solution that contains 22.9% NaOH by mass means

22.9 g NaOH in 100 g solution.

Mass of NaOH(WB)=22.9 g

Mass of water =100-22.9=77.1

Na=23

O=16

H=1.01

Molar mass of NaOH(MB)=23+16+1.01=40.01

Number of moles =\frac{Given\;mass}{Molar\;mass}

Using the formula

Number of moles of  NaOH(n_B)=\frac{W_B}{M_B}=\frac{22.9}{40.01}

n_B=0.572moles

Molar mass of water=16+2(1.01)=18.02g

Number of moles of water(n_A)=\frac{77.1}{18.02}

n_A=4.279 moles

Now, mole fraction of NaOH

=\frac{n_B}{n_B+n_A}

=\frac{4.279}{0.572+4.279}

=0.882

Hence, the mole fraction of NaOH in an aqueous solution that contain 22.9% NaOH by mass=0.882
