Thermoplastic and thermosetting

thermoplastic:- they are easily molded and extruded into films, fibres and packaging.For eg. PVC

thermosetting:-they are hard and durable and can be used for aircraft parts,tires and auto parts .For eg. phenolic resins.

Answer:

The two types of plastic are:

1. thermosets (cannot be melted)

2. thermoplastics (can be melted)

Explanation:

<u>Thermoplastics</u>

<em>Thermoplastics such as polyethylene and polystyrene are capable of being molded and remolded repeatedly.</em>

Thermoplastics can be recycled. They are further of two types:

1. Amorphous (polystyrene, polycarbonate etc.)

2. Semi-Crystalline (PET, nylon etc.)

<u>Thermosets</u>

<em>Thermoset is a material that strengthens when heated, but cannot be remolded or heated after the initial forming.</em>

Thermosets can't be recycled.

Which of these statements is not true about chemical reaction rates
grin007 [14]

Answer: The statement (B) is not true about chemical reactions.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction rate is affected by the several factors few of which are temperature, concentration of reactants, surface area etc.

In a chemical reaction, if temperature is increased then the rate of reaction will increase because it will increase the average kinetic energy of the reactant molecules. Thus, large number of molecules will have minimum energy required for an effective collision.

It is known that increasing the amount of reactants will increase the rate of reaction.

Therefore, rate of reaction will change if concentration or temperature is changed.

Hence, the statement (B) is not true about chemical reactions.

What is the molarity of a solution in which 7.1 g of sodium sulfate is dissolved in enough water to make 100. mL of solution?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

0.50 M

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of sodium sulfate (solute): 7.1 g
  • Volume of solution: 100 mL

Step 1: Calculate the moles of the solute

The molar mass of sodium sulfate is 142.04 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 7.1 grams of sodium sulfate are:

7.1g \times \frac{1mol}{142.02g} = 0.050mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to liters

We will use the relation 1 L = 1000 mL.

100mL \times \frac{1L}{1000mL} =0.100L

Step 3: Calculate the molarity of the solution

M = \frac{moles\ of\ solute }{liters\ of\ solution} = \frac{0.050mol}{0.100L} =0.50 M

How many carbon atoms are there in a 1.5-carat diamond? diamonds are a form of pure carbon. ( 1 carat=0.20 grams)?
11111nata11111 [884]
1 carot = 0.2 grams
1.5 carot = 0.3 grams.

1 mol of Carbon = 12 grams
x mol = 0.3 grams

0.3 * 1 = 12 x
x = 0.3/12
x = 0.025 mol

1 mol of Carbon is 6.02 * 10^23 atoms
0.025 mol of carbon is x

1/0.025 = 6.02*10^23 * /x
x = 0.025 * 6.02 * 10^23
x = 1.5 * 10^22 atoms of carbon.
