Electrical cords are made up of two layers. The wire inside is made of metal. This is surrounded by a cover made of plastic or rubber. How do the wire and cover compare in their ability to conduct or insulate electricity? A. The wire is a conductor, and the cover is an insulator. B. The wire is an insulator, and the cover is a conductor. C. Both the wire and the cover are insulators. D. Both the wire and the cover are conductors.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Explanation:

The correct answer would be that the wire is a conductor and the cover is an insulator.

The wire inside an electrical cord is made up of metals and metals are generally considered to be good conductors of heat and electricity. The cover which is made of plastic or rubber, however, are known to be poor conductor of electricity. Hence, the wire are considered to be conductors of electricity while the rubber covers act as insulators to protect users from getting electrocuted.

The correct option is A.

7. Calculate the amount of sodium hydroxide you will need to make 250 mL of a 0.1 M solution of sodium hydroxide.

Answers

Answer:

1 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of solution = 250 mL (250 mL × 1 L/1000 mL = 0.25 L)

Molarity of solution = 0.1 M

Amount of sodium hydroxide = ?

Solution:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

0.1 M = number of moles /0.25 L

Number of moles = 0.1 M × 0.25 L

            M = mol/ L

Number of moles = 0.025 mol

Mass of sodium hydroxide:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.025 mol ×40 g/mol

Mass = 1 g

A) 0.024 g
B) 4.00 g
C) 0.04 g
D) 0 049 g
And why

Answers

Answer:

The answer options provided are incorrect. The correct answer is 0.009g

Explanation:

Using PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (L)

R = gas constant (0.0821 Latm/Kmol)

T = temperature (K)

n = number of moles

Based in the information provided;

V = 107mL = 107/1000 = 0.107L

P = 104.8kPa = 104800 Pa = 1.03atm

T = 30°C + 273.15 = 303.15K

PV = nRT

1.03 × 0.107 = n × 0.0821 × 303.15

0.1102 = 24.89n

n = 0.1102/24.89

n = 0.0044 mol

mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of H2 = 2g/mol

mass = molar mass × mole

mass = 2 × 0.0044

mass = 0.0088

mass = 0.009g

A laboratory bottle of helium gas occupies a volume of 2.0 L at 760 mm Hg. Calculate the new pressure if the
volume falls to 1.8 L.

Answers

Answer:

844.4 mmHg

Explanation:

The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]

Since we are finding the new pressure

[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]

From the question we have

[tex]P_2 = \frac{2 \times 760}{1.8} = \frac{1520}{1.8} \\ = 844.4444...[/tex]

We have the final answer as

844.4 mmHg

If 9.8g water is used in electrolysis, what is the percent yield if 5.6g of oxygen was
collected after the experiment?
H20 --> H2 + O2

Answers

Answer:

Approximately [tex]64\%[/tex].

Explanation:

[tex]\displaystyle \text{Percentage Yield} = \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \times 100\%[/tex]

The actual yield of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] was given. The theoretical yield needs to be calculated from the quantity of the reactant.

Balance the equation for the hydrolysis of water:

[tex]\rm 2\, H_2O \, (l) \to 2\, H_2\, (g) + O_2\, (g)[/tex].

Note the ratio between the coefficient of [tex]\rm H_2O\, (g)[/tex] and [tex]\rm O_2\, (g)[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{O_2\, (g)})}{n(\mathrm{H_2O\, (aq)})} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex].

This ratio will be useful for finding the theoretical yield of [tex]\rm O_2\, (g)[/tex].

Look up the relative atomic mass of hydrogen and oxygen on a modern periodic table.

[tex]\rm H[/tex]: [tex]1.008[/tex].[tex]\rm O[/tex]: [tex]15.999[/tex].

Calculate the formula mass of [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex] and [tex]\rm O_2[/tex]:

[tex]M(\mathrm{H_2O}) =2\times 1.008 + 15.999 = 18.015\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex].

[tex]M(\mathrm{O_2}) =2\times 15.999 = 31.998\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex].

Calculate the number of moles of molecules in [tex]9.8\; \rm g[/tex] of [tex]\rm H_2O[/tex]:

[tex]\displaystyle n(\mathrm{H_2O}) = \frac{m(\mathrm{H_2O})}{M(\mathrm{H_2O})} = \frac{9.8\; \rm g}{18.015\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \approx 0.543991\;\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}[/tex].

Make use of the ratio [tex]\displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{O_2\, (g)})}{n(\mathrm{H_2O\, (aq)})} = \frac{1}{2}[/tex] to find the theoretical yield of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] (in terms of number of moles of molecules.)

[tex]\begin{aligned} n(\mathrm{O_2}) &= \displaystyle \frac{n(\mathrm{O_2\, (g)})}{n(\mathrm{H_2O\, (aq)})} \cdot n(\mathrm{H_2O}) \\ &\approx \frac{1}{2} \times 0.543991\; \rm mol \approx 0.271996\; \rm mol \end{aligned}[/tex].

Calculate the mass of that approximately [tex]0.271996\; \rm mol[/tex] of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] (theoretical yield.)

[tex]\begin{aligned}m(\mathrm{O_2}) &= n(\mathrm{O_2}) \cdot M(\mathrm{O_2}) \\ &\approx 0.271996\; \rm mol \times 31.998\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1} \approx 8.70331 \; \rm g \end{aligned}[/tex].

That would correspond to the theoretical yield of [tex]\rm O_2[/tex] (in term of the mass of the product.)

Given that the actual yield is [tex]5.6\; \rm g[/tex], calculate the percentage yield:

[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Percentage Yield} &= \frac{\text{Actual Yield}}{\text{Theoretical Yield}} \times 100\% \\ &\approx \frac{5.6\; \rm g}{8.70331\; \rm g} \times 100\% \approx 64\%\end{aligned}[/tex].

Uniformitarianism states that the geologic processes occurring in the past are the same processes that are occurring today.
Processes we see happening on Earth today have occurred for millions of years, forming the rocks and landforms around us. In the
Kimberley Region of Western Australia, there is a Devonian limestone formation with a structure similar to today's Barrier Reef. It
is composed largely of corals. Based on the principles of uniformitarianism, what can we infer about this region back in the
Devonian period?
A) The Kimberly region is composed of sedimentary rocks deposited over
millions of years since the Devonian period.
B) Because modern corals live in warm, shallow seas, we can infer the same
environment existed during the Devonian period, where the Kimberleys are
today
C) We can infer that the climate has not changed over millions of years in the
Kimberly region of Australia and both biotic and abiotic factors remain
constant over time.
D) Because modern corals live in warm, shallow seas, we can infer that over
millions of years the animals that comprise the reefs have adapted to
changes in environmental conditions in the Kimberly area.

Answers

Answer:

B) Because modern corals live in warm, shallow seas, we can infer the same

environment existed during the Devonian period, where the Kimberleys are

today

Explanation:

Based on the law of Uniformitarianism we can infer the environment that existed during the formation of the Devonian limestone and the Barrier Reef today.

Since the process that occurs in times past are still occurring today, the depositional environment must have been the same. The limestone in Kimberly suggests that they must have formed under warm, shallow sea very similar to that of the Barrier reef today. This interpretation is only made possible by the law of uniformitarianism.

The diagram shows changes of state between the solid liquid and gas. The atoms of a substate gain energy during a change of state. Before the change, the atoms are close together and cannot slide past one another. after the change, the substance can fill its container.
Which arrow represents the change of state described
above?
A-L
B-Μ
C-N
D-O

Answers

Answer:

A-L

Explanation:

Since before the change, the substance is described as having atoms "close together" and "cannot slide past one another", one can assume this is a solid, since in both liquids and gases, the atoms can move around more or less freely.

Then, it explains that the new substance "can fill a container", which is a property of both a liquid and a gas.

Thus, the answer would be either P, solid to liquid, or L, solid to gas.

Since P is not an option you can choose, by process of elimination, that leaves L, or option A.
