Explanation:

the concentration of reactants generally increases the rate of reaction because more of the reacting molecules or ions are present to form the reaction products.

Answer:

Thermal decomposition or cracking

Explanation:

Petroleum is a mixture of hydrocarbons which are usually formed naturally. Petroleum undergo a host of chemical reactions. One of such is thermal decomposition or cracking.

Cracking is used in the petroleum industry to covert heavy fractions to more useful lighter ones.

When petroleum is subjected to high temperature and pressure, and in the presence of catalyst, the long chain type of petroleum will decompose into more useful smaller and lighter molecules.

Answer:

B

Explanation:

This is due to the differences in the concentrations of the radioactive isotopes in the two containers of the same volume. In container A, with a higher density of atoms, there is a higher chance of a neutron released in the decay of one atom, hitting another atom and splitting it. This is in comparison to container B that has fewer atoms that are widely dispersed due to the lower density. Atoms in cointainer A will therefore decay faster (shorter half-life) than atoms in container B.

Answer:1465k

Explanation:Find explanation in the attachment

Answer:

The correct answer is 1465K

Explanation:

The formula to be used here is that of Charles' law.

Charles' law states that the volume of an ideal gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature (in kelvin), provided that pressure remains constant. From the law above we can deduce the formula below

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

where V₁ is the initial volume (2.0 L)

T₁ is the initial temperature (293K)

V₂ is the final temperature (10.0L)

T₂ is the final temperature (unknown)

From the formula, it can be deduced that

T₂ = (T₁ × V₂) ÷ V₁

T₂ = (293 × 10) ÷ 2

T₂ = 1465K

The final temperature of the balloon after heating will be 1465K

Answer:

Group 7 or the Halogens

Explanation:

The halogens occupies the 7th group on the periodic table. The group is made of F, Cl , Br, I and At.

The elements in this group are the most reactive of all elements. They are very reactive because they have just 7 electrons in their outermost shell and they only require an electron to complete their electronic configuration to produce an octet which typically mimics the stable group VIII elements.

This makes them very highly reactive.

Final answer:

The energy required to produce 1 mole of He+ ions is 567.07 kcal/mol and for He++ ions is 1255.07 kcal/mol. The total energy to produce He++ ions from neutral He atoms is 1822.14 kcal/mol.

Explanation:

To calculate the energy in calories required to produce 1 mole of He+ ions and He++ ions from neutral helium (He) atoms, we employ Bohr's equations which relate the energy levels of electrons in hydrogen-like atoms. The first ionization energy (I1) is the energy needed to remove one electron, resulting in a He+ ion, and the second ionization energy (I2) is the energy required to remove a second electron, creating a He++ ion. The given first ionization energy for He is 24.59 eV and the second is 54.42 eV. Since 1 eV is equivalent to 23.06 kcal/mol, we can convert these ionization energies into calories per mole. Thus,

Adding these two amounts gives us the total energy to produce 1 mole of He++ ions from neutral He:

Total energy = 567.07 kcal/mol + 1255.07 kcal/mol = 1822.14 kcal/mol

Remember, this calculation assumes that all atoms are initially at ground state and that we are dealing with a single mole of atoms.

Answer:

(a) 13.7 g.

(b) 28.91 g.

Explanation:

∴ m = (no. of moles of solute)/(mass of water (kg))

∴ m = (mass/molar mass of solute)/(mass of water (kg)).

(a) Calculate the mass of CaCl₂·6H₂O needed to prepare 0.125 m CaCl₂(aq) by using 500. g of water.

∵ m = (mass/molar mass of CaCl₂·6H₂O)/(mass of water (kg)).

m = 0.125 m, molar mass of CaCl₂·6H₂O = 219.0757 g/mol, mass of water = 500.0 g = 0.5 kg.

∴ 0.125 m = (mass of CaCl₂·6H₂O / 219.0757 g/mol)/(0.5 kg).

∴ mass of CaCl₂·6H₂O = (0.125 m)(219.0757 g/mol)(0.5 kg) = 13.7 g.

(b) What mass of NiSO₄·6H₂O must be dissolved in 500. g of water to produce 0.22 m NiSO₄(aq)?

∵ m = (mass/molar mass of NiSO₄·6H₂O)/(mass of water (kg)).

m = 0.22 m, molar mass of NiSO₄·6H₂O = 262.84 g/mol, mass of water = 500.0 g = 0.5 kg.

∴ 0.125 m = (mass of NiSO₄·6H₂O / 262.84 g/mol)/(0.5 kg).

∴ mass of NiSO₄·6H₂O = (0.22 m)(262.84 g/mol)(0.5 kg) = 28.91 g.

Final answer:

Explanation:

(a) Balance the chemical equation:

Ca(NO3)2(aq) + Na2CO3(aq) → CaCO3(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

(b) How many grams of Na2CO3 are needed:

Use the molarity and volume to find moles of Ca(NO3)2, then use the mole ratio to find moles of Na2CO3, and finally convert moles to grams.

(c) Find the osmolarity of the NaNO3 solution:

Since Na2CO3 doesn't affect volume significantly, find moles of Na2CO3 reacting, and use that to calculate the moles of NaNO3 left in the solution for osmolarity.

Answer:

Explanation:

The dual behavior of subatomic particles as waves and particles is known as the wave - particle duality.

And this principle is the basis of the quantum theory.

Such principle is widely applied to the electrons; i.e., the electrons posses wave and particle propeties, which must be understodd as that some of their properties may be explained as if they were particles and others as if they were waves.

For example, from the particle point of view electrons have mass. You can find in internet that the mass of one electron is about 9.1093837015×10⁻³¹ kg or about 1/1836 times the mass of one proton.)

Since, the point of view of the wave characteristics, electrons have wavelength, Louis de Broglie deduced the equation that relates the wavelength and the mass, through this realtion:

Answer:

1 mole of any gas has a volume of 22.4 at STP

Avogadro's law states 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP) occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. This statement is applicable to all gases.

According to Avogadro's law, one very important characteristic of 1 mole of gas at standard temperature and pressure (STP) is that it occupies a volume of 22.4 liters. This is applicable to any gas, regardless of the type. Avogadro's law states that equal volumes of different gases, at the same temperature and pressure, contain the same number of molecules. Therefore, irrespective of whether it is oxygen, hydrogen, or nitrogen, if you have 1 mole of gas at STP, it will occupy a volume of 22.4 liters.

Answer:

3065.63 J = 3.066 kJ.

Explanation:

Q = m.c.ΔT,

where, Q is the amount of heat needed to warm Fe (Q = ??? J).

m is the mass of Fe (m = 125.0 g).

c is the specific heat capacity of Fe (c = 0.45 J/g.°C).  

ΔT is the difference in T (ΔT = final temperature - initial temperature = 78.0°C - 23.5°C = 54.5°C).

∴ Q = m.c.ΔT = (125.0 g)(0.45 J/g.°C)(54.5°C) = 3065.63 J = 3.066 kJ.

Explanation:

ppm is a unit of concentration that means parts per million. In grams that is grams of solute per one million (10⁶) grams of solution.

Then, 15 ppm of benzene means that there are 15 grams of benzen in 1,000,000 grams of solution.

That leads to:

Multiplying numerator and denominator by 10⁻⁶ you find:

Simplifying:

Which is read as 1.0 g of the solution contains 15 × 10⁻⁶ g of benzene, i.e. the second answer choice.

Answer:

1.0 g of the solution contains 15 * 10^-6 g of benzene

Explanation:

ppm by definition is parts per million. In this context, that means there are 15 g of benzene in 1,000,000 mL of solution.

We are given a solution with a density of 1.00 g/mL meaning there is just 1 mL

So, because there is only 1 mL instead of 1,000,000 mL, we will have 15 x 10^-6 g of benzene present in 1 g of the solution.

because they can become more stable by doing so. ... Two or more atoms of different elements that are chemically bonded together are known as: Compounds 6.

pls make brainliest thx

Carbon atoms have four valence electrons and are likely to react with other atoms because they can become more stable by doing so.

An atom is any particle of matter at its most basic level which contains at least one proton.

The four valence electrons in a carbon atom can do this by forming four single bonds, or by forming two single bonds and a double bond, by forming one single bond and a triple bond, or by forming two double bonds.

Carbons covalently bond with one another, also, forming chains of various lengths, and rings.

Hence, carbon atoms have four valence electrons and are likely to react with other atoms because they can become more stable by doing so.

Answer:

Explanation:

The pressure exerted by a liquid is equal to the pressure inside the liquid. This pressure is called hydrostatic pressure.

The equation to calculate the pressure inside a liquid (a fluid in general) is found by applying balance of forces inside a portion of liquid.

The equilibrium condition (net force = 0) and the definition of pressure (P = F/A) leads to:

Where, P is the pressure exerted by the liquid, p⁰ is the atmospheric pressure, ΔP is the difference in the pressure, ρ is the density of the liquid, g is the acceleration of gravity, and Δh is the change with depth.

Hence, the pressure exerted by a liquid varies jointly with the density of the liquid and the depth, meaning that it is proportional to the product of them both.

Therefore, the choice that represents this conditon is the second one: the pressure exerted by a liquid changes proportional to the depth and proportional to the density changes.

The pressure exerted by a liquid is proportional to the depth of the liquid and also proportional to the density of the liquid.

The pressure exerted by a liquid changes with depth and density in a predictable way. As you go deeper into a liquid, the pressure increases because there is more liquid above you exerting force due to gravity. This relationship is proportional to depth; specifically, pressure due to the weight of a liquid of constant density is given by the formula p = ρ gh, where p is the pressure, h is the depth of the liquid, ρ (rho) is the density of the liquid, and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

Similarly, the pressure exerted by a liquid also changes as the density of the liquid changes. If the density of the liquid increases, the pressure at a particular depth also increases. Thus, this relationship is proportional to density. Traveling up into the atmosphere demonstrates the effect density has on pressure because the density of the air begins to decrease with height, unlike in liquids where the density is often constant.

In summary, the pressure exerted by a liquid is proportional to both the depth and the density of the liquid. Therefore, the correct description of how pressure changes in a liquid is: proportional to depth; proportional to density.

a strong acid fully dissociates in water to form H+ ions in water while a weak acid only partially dissociates to form H+ ions in water

The principal difference between a strong and weak acid is that strong acids fully dissociate into the water and weak acids partially dissociate into water.

Acids are those substances that give protons when dissociate in water. Acids are substances whose pH is less than 7, and they are sour in taste.

Acids are of two types. Strong acids and weak acids. Weak acids have more pH than strong acids. They are partially ionized in an aqueous solution.

Examples of weak acids are formic acid, acetic acid, oxalic acids. Examples of strong acids are hydrochloric acid, hydrobromic acids, and nitric acid.

Thus, strong acids totally dissociate into the water, whereas weak acids only partially do. This is the main distinction between strong and weak acids.

(b) Balanced equation

[tex]\rm 2LiOH + CO$_{2} \longrightarrow \,$ Li$_{2}$CO$_{3}$ + H$_{2}$O[/tex]

(c) Molar masses

The only compound for which you need an atomic mass is water.

You look up the atomic masses of each element in the Periodic Table, multiply by their subscripts in the formula, and add.

[tex]\begin{array}{rcrcr}\text{2H} & = & 2 \times 1.008 & = & 2.02\\\text{1O} & = & 1 \times 16.00 & = & 16.00\\\text{H$_{2}$O} & = & & & \mathbf{18.02}\\\end{array}[/tex]

(d) Molar Ratio

You want to convert moles of carbon dioxide to moles of water.

The balanced equation tells you that the molar ratio is 1 mol H₂O:1 mol CO₂.

(e) Significant figures

The only measurement you are given is "about 650 L." That tells you that the trailing zero is not significant.

The volume has only two significant figures, so the mass of water can have only two significant figures.

Note: Intermediate calculations should carry at least one extra digit (a guard digit) to prevent cumulative round-off errors, answers to be reported must have the correct number of significant figures.

[tex]\text{Moles of CO$_{2}$} = \text{650 L CO$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CO$_{2}$}}{\text{22.71 L CO$_{2}$ }} = \text{28.6 mol CO$_{2}$}\\\\\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{28.6 mol CO$_{2}$} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$O}}{\text{1 mol CO$_{2}$}} = \text{28.6 mol H$_{2}$O}\\\\\text{Mass of H$_{2}$O} = \text{28.6 mol H$_{2}$O} \times \dfrac{\text{18.02 g H$_{2}$O}}{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$O}} = \boxed{\textbf{520 g H$_{2}$O}}[/tex]

The mass of water produced when CO2 reacts with LiOH can be determined using the balanced chemical equation and the molar mass of the compounds.

The unbalanced chemical equation for the reaction between carbon dioxide (CO2) and lithium hydroxide (LiOH) is:
CO2 + LiOH → H2O + Li2CO3

To find the molar mass of a compound, you add up the atomic masses of each element in the compound. The molar mass of CO2 can be calculated by adding the atomic masses of carbon (12.01 g/mol) and oxygen (16.00 g/mol).

The balanced chemical equation allows you to determine the ratio of moles of reactants and products. In this case, you can see that for every 1 mole of CO2 reacted, 1 mole of H2O is produced.

The answer needs to have the same number of significant figures as the given data, which is 3 significant figures. Therefore, the mass of water produced when 650 L of CO2 reacts with LiOH is 2.35 kg.

b. cellulose

Explanation:

It is important fro the smooth function of the digestive tract.

Cellulose is an important indigestible carbohydrate in the diet. Option b is correct.

It is a complex polysaccharide composed of repeating units of glucose molecules linked together by β-1,4-glycosidic bonds. Cellulose is the main structural component of the cell walls of plants and is found in abundance in fruits, vegetables, grains, and other plant-based foods.

Unlike other carbohydrates like amylose (a type of starch) or glycogen (a storage form of glucose in animals), cellulose cannot be broken down by the digestive enzymes produced by humans and most animals. This is because mammals lack the necessary enzyme, cellulase, required to hydrolyze the β-1,4-glycosidic bonds in cellulose.

Although cellulose is indigestible by humans, it plays a crucial role in the diet. It provides dietary fiber, which is essential for maintaining a healthy digestive system. Dietary fiber adds bulk to the stool, helps regulate bowel movements, and promotes the growth of beneficial gut bacteria. Additionally, consuming foods rich in cellulose can aid in satiety and weight management since it takes longer to chew and provides a feeling of fullness.

In summary, cellulose is an important indigestible carbohydrate in the diet, providing valuable dietary fiber and promoting digestive health. While humans cannot digest cellulose directly, its presence in plant-based foods is essential for maintaining a balanced and healthy diet.

Answer:

C. 481 °C.

Explanation:

The amount of heat absorbed by water = the amount of heat released by copper.

Q = m.c.ΔT,

where, Q is the amount of energy.

m is the mass of substance.

c is the specific heat capacity.

ΔT is the difference between the initial and final temperature (ΔT = final T - initial T).

∵ Q of copper = Q of water

∴ - (m.c.ΔT) of copper = (m.c.ΔT) of water

m of copper = 220.0 g, c of copper = 0.39 J/g °C, ΔT of copper = final T - initial T = 42.00 °C - initial T.

m of water = 500.0 g, c of water = 4.18 J/g °C, ΔT of water = final T - initial T = 42.00 °C - 24.00 °C = 18.00 °C.

∴ - (220.0 g)( 0.39 J/g °C)(42.00 °C - Ti) = (500.0 g)(4.18 J/g °C)(18.00 °C)

∴ - (85.8)(42.00 °C - Ti) = 37620.

∴ (42.00 °C - Ti) = 37620/(- 85.8) = - 438.5.

∴ Ti = 42.00 °C + 438.5 = 480.5°C ≅ 481°C.

So, the right choice is: C. 481 °C.
