A student noticed that the size of the hot pack becomes bigger when magnesium sulfate reacts with water. She thinks that more atoms are produced that make the hot pack grow bigger. Do you agree? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Disagree with the suggestion based on the hygroscopic nature of anhydrous magnesium sulfate

Explanation:

Magnesium sulfate in the anhydrous form is a drying agent. A drying agent salts of inorganic compounds that has the capability of absorbing water to become hydrated, when placed in the presence of a wet surface or moist air

Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is therefore hygroscopic such that it absorbs water from the atmosphere and becomes hydrated and increases in size as its volume is increased according to the following chemical equation

MgSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(l) → MgSO₄·7H₂O(s)

The molar mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate = 120.366 g/mol

The molar mass of the heptahydrate = 246.47 g/mol

Therefore, the mass of the magnesium sulfate doubles when it forms the heptahydrate, and the magnesium sulfate grows bigger.

Answers

Answer: Convection Currents

Explanation:

Due to the different   temperature occurring at the  upper and lower layers  of the mantle, it causes  heat transfer to occur. One of such heat transfer is the Convection currents which causes  warmer, less dense rock material in the core to rise through the mantle. Also, the cooler rocks in the higher mantle move slowly towards the core.The movement caused by these  Convection current in the Earth are  called plate tectonics which are responsible for earthquakes and volcanoes.

the rate of effusion of co2 gas through a porous barrier is observed to be 9.31x 10^-4 mol/h. under the same conditions, the rate of effusion of N2 gas would be _______ mol/h

Answers

Answer:

[tex]1.167\times 10^{-3}\ \text{mol/h}[/tex]

Explanation:

[tex]R_1[/tex] = Rate of diffusion of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = [tex]9.31\times 10^{-4}\ \text{mol/h}[/tex]

[tex]R_2[/tex] = Rate of diffusion of [tex]N_2[/tex]

[tex]M_1[/tex] = Molar mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = 44.01 g/mol

[tex]M_2[/tex] = Molar mass of [tex]N_2[/tex] = 28.0134 g/mol

From Graham's law we have the relation

[tex]\dfrac{R_1}{R_2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{M_2}{M_1}}\\\Rightarrow R_2=\dfrac{R_1}{\sqrt{\dfrac{M_2}{M_1}}}\\\Rightarrow R_2=\dfrac{9.31\times 10^{-4}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{28.0134}{44.01}}}\\\Rightarrow R_2=1.167\times 10^{-3}\ \text{mol/h}[/tex]

The rate of effusion of the [tex]N_2[/tex] gas would be [tex]1.167\times 10^{-3}\ \text{mol/h}[/tex].

If 359 mL of a gas were contracted to only 269 mL, what would be the initial temperature of it if it measured 422 K after the change?

I NEED IT FAST!!

Answers

Answer:

T₁ = 563.19 K

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 359 mL

Final volume = 269 mL

Final temperature = 422 K

Initial temperature = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through the Charles Law.

Charles Law:

According to this law, The volume of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant number of moles and pressure.

Mathematical expression:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

V₂ = Final volume  

T₂ = Final temperature

Now we will put the values in formula.

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂

T₁ = V₁T₂ / V₂

T₁ = 359 mL × 422 K / 269 mL

T₁ = 151498 mL.K / 269 mL

T₁ = 563.19 K

In an electrically neutral atom of any element, there are equal numbers of

B. electrons and procons.
C. electrons and neurrons.
D. atomic number and atomia mess. 5​

Answers

Answer:

B. electrons and protons.

Explanation:

In an electrically neutral atom of any element, there are equal number of protons and electrons in the atom.

Protons are the positively charged particles in an atom.

Electrons are the negatively charged particles within the atom.

  When the number of protons and electrons are the same or equal, the atom is neutral.

But when there is an imbalance, an ion results.

A sample of methane gas collcted t a pressure of 0.0884 atm and a temperature of 6.00 C is found to occupy a volume of 26.5 L. How many moles of CH4 gas are in the sample? ____ mol

Answers

Answer:

0.1mole

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Pressure = 0.0884atm

Temperature  = 6°C  = 6 + 273  = 279K

Volume occupied  = 26.5L

Unknown:

Number of moles  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we are going to use the ideal gas equation:

           PV  = nRT

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

R is the gas constant  = 0.082atmLmol⁻¹k⁻¹

T is the temperature.

  Insert the parameters and solve for n;

     0.084 x 26.5  = n x 0.082 x 279

              n  = 0.1mole

c. no, she should add only solids to her list
d. no, she should add gases and solids to her list

Answer:

I just looked up the types of matter energy has.

Explanation:

I believe the answer is D.

Sally's list of matter that have energy is not complete as all the types of matter have energy as all matter have mass , and mass and energy are related, so she should have added gases and solids to her list.

What is matter?

Matter in chemistry, is defined as any kind of substance that has mass and occupies space that means it has volume .Matter is composed up of atoms which may or not be of the  same type.

Atoms are further made up of sub atomic particles which are the protons ,neutrons and the electrons .The matter can exist in various states such as solids, liquids and gases depending on the conditions of temperature and pressure.

The states of matter are inter convertible into each other by changing the parameters of temperature and pressure.

The reaction expression is given as:

           ⁴⁰₁₈ Ar   →   X  +  ⁰₁B  

To solve this problem, we must bear in mind that both mass number and atomic number must be conserved.

 So;

For the mass number:

               40  = A + 0

                 A  = 40

For atomic number:

                 18  = Z + 1

                  Z = 18 - 1  = 17

An atom is identifiable by the atomic number. Since the atomic number of X is 17 then it is Cl, chlorine
