When ice melts, what happens to the water molecules?

Chemistry

EastWind [94]4 years ago

Answer:

A) The attractions between the water molecules weaken.

Explanation:

During melting, The attractions between the water molecules weaken. The kinetic energy or "moving energy" increases as the particles are moving more. As the ice melts into liquid water, the molecules are still attracted to each other, but less than in the solid state.

Not much.

Ice is only water, when the molecules are submitted to low temeperatures and have formed a crystalline arrangement of low density. In ice, the molecules arange themselves in hexagons with hydrogen bonds binfing each molecule.

When ice melts it turnes into water and the molecules leave the crystalline shape and come back to their normal density. In water, not all molecules are binded forming short and irregular lines.

→ In the image below, you can see the arrangement of ice and water.

2. (2 pts) How would you prepare 1.5 liters of 2 M KCI (MW=74.55 g/mol)
ra1l [238]

Answer:

Dissolve 226 g of KCl in enough water to make 1.5 L of solution

Explanation:

1. Calculate the moles of KCl needed

n = \text{1.5 L} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol}}{\text{1 L}}= \text{3.0 mol}

2. Calculate the mass of KCl

m = \text{3.0 mol} \times \dfrac{\text{74.55 g}}{\text{1 mol}}= \text{224 g}

3. Prepare the solution

  • Measure out 224 g of KCl.
  • Dissolve the KCl in a few hundred millilitres of distilled water.
  • Add enough water to make 1.5 L of solution. Mix thoroughly to get a uniform solution.

You find a compound composed only of element X and chlorine and you know that the compound is 13.10% X by mass. Each molecule of
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Explanation:

So, the formula for the compound should be:

XCl_{6}

Now we assume that we have 1 mol of substance, so we can make calculations to know the molar mass of element X, as follows:

M_{Cl}=35.45g/mol\\

So we have that 6 moles weight 212.7g, and we can make a rule of three to know the weight of compound X:

212.7g\rightarrow 86.9\%\\x\rightarrow 13.1\%\\\\x=\frac{212.7g*13.1}{86.9} =32.06g

As we used 1 mol, we know that the molar mass is 32.06g/mol

So the element has a molar mass of 32.06 g/mol and an oxidation state of +6, with this information, we can assure that the element X is sulfur, so the compound is SCl_{6}

How to do limiting reagents for chemistry?
gavmur [86]
Balance the chemical equation for the chemical reaction.
Convert the given information into moles.
Use stoichiometry for each individual reactant to find the mass of product produced.
The reactant that produces a lesser amount of product is the limiting reagent.
The reactant that produces a larger amount of product is the excess reagent.
To find the amount of remaining excess reactant, subtract the mass of excess reagent consumed from the total mass of excess reagent given.
