Why is a reaction between Sodium and Potassium impossible?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it is because a number of factors, including sample surface cleanliness and temperature, can prevent chunks of alkali metals from exploding on contact with water. The team eliminated those variables and others by using a sodium-potassium alloy that remains liquid at room temperature and a droplet delivery system featuring a calibrated syringe.

Answer 2

Answer: Potassium has a chloride mixture which makes it so sodium interacts easily with it to form the bond

What is the approximate temperature of 1.4 moles of a gas with a pressure of 3.25 atmospheres in a 4.738-liter container

Answers

Answer:

134K

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas law equation;

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (Litres)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas constant (0.0821 Latm/Kmol)

T = temperature (K)

Based on the information provided, n = 1.4moles, P = 3.25atm, V = 4.738L, T = ?

3.25 × 4.738 = 1.4 × 0.0821 × T

15.3985 = 0.11494T

T = 15.3985/0.11494

T = 133.969

Approximately;

T = 134K

Supongo que quiere preparar una solución al 10% de sulfato de magnesio en peso. El frasco del producto químico que se tiene indica que el sulfato de magnesio heptahidratado Cuántos gramos de hidratado serán necesarios para preparar 120 gramos de esta solución .Cuántos gramos de agua?

Answers

Answer:

Se requerirán 14.57 gramos de MgSO₄·7H₂O, que se disolverían en 105.43 gramos de agua.

Explanation:

Si tenemos 120 gramos de una solución al 10% de sulfato de magnesio en peso, habrán en la solución (120*10/100) 12 gramos de sulfato de magnesio (MgSO₄).

Sin embargo, el reactivo que está disponible es heptahidratado (MgSO₄·7H₂O), por lo que hay que calcular cuántos gramos de sulfato de magnesio heptahidratado contendrán 12 gramos de MgSO₄.

Calculamos las moles de 12 gramos de MgSO₄, usando su masa molecular:

12 g MgSO₄ ÷ 120.305 g/mol = 0.0997 mol MgSO₄.

Después calculamos la masa de MgSO₄·7H₂O que contendrá 0.0997 mol MgSO₄, usando la masa molecular de MgSO₄·7H₂O:

0.0997 mol * 246.305 g/mol = 14.57 g MgSO₄·7H₂O

Para saber la cantidad de agua en la que se disolverá el reactivo, restamos la masa de soluto de la masa total de la solución:

120 g - 14.57 g = 105.43 g

What is the volume of a gas balloon filled with 4.0 moles of tha gas, when the barometer reads pressure of 780 Torr and temperature is 30°C.​

Answers

Answer:

V = 96.61 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles = 4.0 mol

Pressure = 780 torr (780/760 = 1.03 atm)

Temperature = 30°C

Volume of gas = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

30+273 = 303 K

1.03 atm × V = 4.0 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 303 K

V = 99.505 atm.L / 1.03 atm

V = 96.61 L

Explanation:

A molecule is a substance that is a combination of two or more atoms through a chemical bond while an element is a substance containing only one type of atom. However, some elements are also considered molecules because of having diatoms such as: Hydrogen, Oxygen, Chlorine, Bromine, Fluorine, Nitrogen and Iodine.

Among the choices above, it is only choice C (Carbon monoxide) that is a molecule. All the other options (Calcium, Cobalt and Copper) are elements. Carbon monoxide is a combination of one atom of carbon and another atom of oxygen.

The option that represents a molecule would be CO. That is option C.

A series of experiments are conducted with five different cups, each filled with the same amount of water. One cup is kept at room temperature (25 °C), while the other four cups are heated to four different temperatures. Sugar is added to each cup until no more will dissolve. The amount of sugar added to each cup is recorded. Which answer correctly identifies the control group, independent variable, dependent variable, and controlled variable in the experiment?

Control Group: temperature of the water Independent Variable: cup of water at room temperature Dependent Variable: amount of sugar dissolved Controlled Variable: amount of water in each cup

Control Group: temperature of the water Independent Variable: cup of water at room temperature Dependent Variable: amount of water in each cup Controlled Variable: amount of sugar dissolved

Control Group: cup of water at room temperature Independent Variable: temperature of the water Dependent Variable: amount of sugar dissolved Controlled Variable: amount of water in each cup

Control Group: temperature of the water Independent Variable: amount of sugar dissolved Dependent Variable: amount of water in each cup Controlled Variable: cup of water at room temperature

Answers

Answer:

Either the first one or the third one.

Explanation:

Using process of elimination: knowing that the controlled variable is something the conductor is able to control and stays the same throughout; the amount of water is the same, but it also states that temperature is not the same throughout. This cancels out B because the amount of sugar dissolved varies and doesn’t stay the same. D fits the same criteria as well.

so now we are left with A and C.

An independent variable is something that can be by itself and doesn’t depend on anything else. Sugar is NOT independent, as it dissolves DEPENDING on the amount of liquid. So we can already rule out that sugar is a dependent variable. Both A and C have those choices though, so now we are with the control group and the independent variable.

Think about it, which is the independent variable? Water amount doesn’t depend on anything, while the temperature depends on the room. So the answer is most likely A.

How do intermolecular forces of methane and water explain the different boiling points of the two substances?

Answers

Explanation:

In methane the intermolecular forces are the weak London dispersion forces. Water molecules are held together by hydrogen bonding.

London dispersion forces are weak forces of attraction between molecules. It is a predominant in compounds that have very weak polarity.Hydrogen bonding is the electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen of one molecule and the electronegative atom(O or N or F) of a neighboring molecule.

Hydrogen bonds holds water molecules together. Since it is a stronger bond, it confers a higher boiling point

Answers

Answer:

B. The air pressure would increase 2X

Explanation:

Pressure = density × acceleration due to gravity × height

p = ρ × g × h

Pressure is force per unit area

p = F/a

Density is mass per unit volume

Pressure is directly proportional to density hence, any change in the density of a body directly affects the change in pressure of the body and vice versa.

Difference between absolute atomic mass and relative atomic mass with example

Answers

“Atomic mass” is relative to the isotope carbon-12 weighing exactly 12 atomic mass units. Therefore “atomic mass” is precisely the same as “relative atomic mass.”

Two further points:

First, atomic mass as stated on the periodic table is a average of the masses of an element’s naturally-occurring isotopes, weighted by their abundance. This is because atomic mass as normally used is a bulk property: we weigh out many trillions of atoms at a time, because we usually deal in macroscopic quantities. And that means that an average mass is more useful to us.

Second, all masses are relative masses (until the new, physical-constant-based kilogram comes online; and arguably even then). We mass something by comparing it to some standard of reference: until later this year, that something is a chunk of alloy in Paris, France. When the new standard comes into use, we will be comparing the kilogram’s gravitational mass to the strength of the electromagnetic force.

But that’s kind of trivial; it just stems from the fact that any and every measurement is a comparison to something else.

Edit: IUPAC, the world’s premier organization for the imposition of picky definitions that most people never need to use, has the following:

Atomic mass is the mass of a single atom; the unit is the Dalton or unified atomic mass unit. (I would use “isotopic mass” to specify the mass of a particular atom, but that’s not sanctioned by IUPAC.)

Relative atomic mass is the measured average mass of all atoms of a particular element in a particular sample. To make it unitless, it’s divided by the value of the unified atomic mass unit.

Standard atomic weight is the value you read off of the periodic table; it’s an Earth-based average over many samples, of experimental values of the relative atomic mass. Values are promulgated by the IUPAC Commission on Atomic Weights and Isotopic Abundances, and are revised every two years.

Most chemists refer to standard atomic weight as “atomic mass” or “atomic weight” and get on with their lives.

The unified atomic mass unit is 1/12 of the mass of an atom of carbon-12. It is sometimes called the Dalton.

Definitions taken from the IUPAC Gold Book.

As far as I can tell, relative atomic masses and standard atomic weights are made unitless so that they can be used with any convenient macroscopic mass unit to determine correct proportions for a desired chemical reaction.

What is a formal tone?

In academic or professional settings, a formal writing tone is common. This tone emphasizes thoroughness and directness while remaining respectful.

It emphasizes facts and grammatical correctness and uses full words rather than contractions.

The use of standard English, more complex sentence structures, the infrequent use of personal pronouns, and the absence of colloquial or slang terms characterize formal language.

In informal language, nonstandard English forms, colloquial vocabulary, and typically shorter sentence structures are permitted.

"People find Shakespeare's Pericles, Prince of Tyre boring and annoying because it's possible that he didn't even write the entire play," is an inappropriate sentence in a formal informational piece of writing.

Thus, the correct option is A.
