Which one has more mass a bag of cotton balls or a bag of nails and explain

Chemistry
1 answer:
Mama L [17]3 years ago
6 0
You would think that the bag of nails would have more mass but their masses are identical. <span>If you were to put them both in a vacuum chamber and let them fall from a great height, they would fall the same speed. The vacuum chamber would suck all of the air out of the cotton balls, thus making it heavier and weigh the same as the bag of nails.

Hopefully this is helpful and makes sense.</span>

At 20 ∘C the vapor pressure of benzene C6H6 is 75 torr and that of toluene C7H8 is 22 torr. Assume that benzene and toluene fo
Olegator [25]

Answer:

a) Xbenzene = 0.283

b) Xtoluene = 0.717

Explanation:

At T = 20°C:

⇒ vapor pressure of benzene (P*b) = 75 torr

⇒ vapor pressure toluene (P*t) = 22 torr

Raoult's law:

  • Pi = Xi.P*i

∴ Pi: partial pressure of i

∴ Xi: mole fraction

∴ P*i: vapor pressure at T

a) solution: benzene (b) + toluene (t)

∴ Psln = 37 torr;   at T=20°C

⇒ Psln = Pb + Pt

∴ Pb = (Xb)*(P*b)

∴ Pt = (Xt)*(P*t)

∴ Xb + Xt = 1

⇒ Psln = 37 torr = (Xb)(75 torr) + (1 - Xb)(22 torr)

⇒ 37 torr - 22 torr = (75 torr)Xb - (22 torr)Xb

⇒ 15 torr = 53 torrXb

⇒ Xb = 15 torr / 53 torr

⇒ Xb = 0.283

b) Xb + Xt = 1

⇒ Xt = 1 - Xb

⇒ Xt = 1 - 0.283

⇒ Xt = 0.717

Draw the Lewis structure for sulfur tetrafluoride, SF4
Vlad [161]

Notes:-

  • S has Z=16

Electronic configuration

  • 1s²2s²2p⁶3s²3p⁴

So

  • Valency is 4 and 6

  • Three fluorine atoms take 3 electrons and one lone pair present over S
  • As one electron remains unshared so we use + sign .

Which statement is true about sodium hydroxide (NaOH)?
elixir [45]

The answer is; It is salt because it is formed by the reaction of an acid and a base.


Salt is composed of cations and anions (with a net charge of 0) joined together by ionic bonds attributed to their complementary charges. NaOH is an alkali salt because it forms an alkaline solution when dissolved in water – because it dissociates hydroxide ions.
