Becquerel  did not discover that the amount of exposure on the paper was proportional to the amount of uranium that was present in the rocks

<h3>What is radioactivity?</h3>

The phenomenon of radioactivity was discovered by the French scientist Henri Becquerel in 1896 when he placed photographic paper in a drawer with some radioactive rocks.

We have to note that Becquerel did not discover that the amount of exposure on the paper was proportional to the amount of uranium that was present in the rocks hence the stetement is false.

Salt water can be desalinated by distillation. How much energy is needed to convert 175 g of salt water at 28.0 °C to water vapo
Vinil7 [7]

Answer:

\Delta H=4.63x10^{5}J=463kJ

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we find the following states:

a. Liquid salt water at 28.0 °C.

b. Liquid salt water at 102.5 °C.

c. Vapor salt water at 102.5 °C.

The first process (1) is to heat the liquid water from 28.0 °C to 102.5 °C and the second one (2) to vaporize the liquid salt water. In such a way, each process has an amount of energy that when added, yields the total energy for the process as shown below:

\Delta H=\Delta H_1+\Delta H_2\\\Delta H=mCp\Delta T+m\Delta _VH\\\Delta H=175g*5.19\frac{J}{g*K}*(375.65K-301.15K)+175g*2.26\frac{kJ}{g} *\frac{1000J}{1kJ} \\\Delta H=4.63x10^{5}J=463kJ

Best regards.

Draw a Lewis structure for ketene, C2H2O , which has a carbon‑carbon double bond. Include all hydrogen atoms and show all unshar
Vladimir79 [104]

<u>Answer:</u> The lewis dot structure is attached below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A Lewis dot structure is defined as the representation of atoms having electrons around the atom where electrons are represented as dots.

A ketene is an organic compound having general formula R′R″C=C=O, where R and R' are two different/same monovalent chemical groups.

The given chemical compound having formula C_2H_2O is represented as H_2-C=C=O.

Total number of unshared electrons = 4 (left on oxygen atom only)

The lewis dot structure of C_2H_2O is given in the image below.

A chemist prepares a solution of mercury(I) chloride Hg2Cl2 by measuring out
Genrish500 [490]

Answer:

1.26 × 10^-8 M

Explanation:

We are given;

Number of moles of mercury (i) chloride as 0.000126 μmol

Volume is 100 mL

We are required to calculate the concentration of the solution.

We need to know that;

Concentration is also known as molarity is given by;

Molarity = Number of moles ÷ Volume

Number of moles = 1.26 × 10^-10 Moles

Volume = 0.01 L

Therefore;

Concentration = 1.26 × 10^-10 Moles ÷ 0.01 L

                       = 1.26 × 10^-8 M

Thus, the molarity of the solution is 1.26 × 10^-8 M
