Mercury is a liquid at room temperature, gallium will melt if held in your hand, and aluminum is a solid that has a high melting point. All three are metals. How can you explain these observations using information about the strength of metallic bonds?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

the solid is so hard

Explanation:

yan na po sana makatulong po heheheh

Answer 2

Metals such as Gallium and mercury are different from that of other metals like aluminium because they are liquid at room temperature. This is because of valence electrons which are relatively free in these metals.

What are Metals?

All the metals except mercury and gallium are solids at room temperature. These metals are liquids because of both the high electrical conductivity and the thermal conductivity which come from the fact that one or more valence electrons is relatively free in these atoms to travel throughout the solid metal. This has been formalized in the Wiedemann-Franz law.

Both Gallium and mercury are unique elements (metals) which occur in the liquid state at near the room temperature. It is important here to note that mercury is essentially a liquid at room temperature while gallium becomes liquid at temperature near to room temperature. They both melt very easily due to the low melting temperature values.

Answers

Answer:

option b is correct

Explanation:

Metals are particularly good conductors of heat because their particles are very closely packed so the vibrations are passed on very quickly. They also contain large numbers of free electrons. These drift slowly through the structure, giving metals their strength and other properties. As the metal is heated, the free electrons closest to the heat source are heated. This makes them move faster and they travel through the metal, colliding with both atoms and other electrons. This naturally makes these vibrate faster (or move through the metal faster in the case of collisions with other free electrons). Thus, the heat is passed quickly through the metal.

1.) What is the maximum number of grams of liquid water at 10C that can be heated to
30C by the addition of 84 joules of heat?

Answers

Answer:

m = 1 gram

Explanation:

Given that,

Heat, Q = 84 J

The temperature increases from 10°C to 30°C.

We need to find maximum number of grams of liquid water. We know that the heat required is given by :

[tex]Q=mc\Delta T[/tex]

c is specific heat of water, c = 4,200 J/kg°C

Use the above formula to find m. So,

[tex]m=\dfrac{Q}{c\Delta T}\\\\m=\dfrac{84}{4,200\times (30-10)}\\\\m=0.001\ kg[/tex]

or

m = 1 gram

So, the required mass is 1 gram.

How many liters of solution would it take to make a 0.250 M solution when you have 3.52 moles of solute?

Answers

Answer:

The volume of solution in liters required to make a 0.250 M solution from 3.52 moles of solute is 14.08 liters of solution

Explanation:

The question relates to the definition of the concentration of a solution which is the number of moles per liter (1 liter = 1 dm³) of solution

Therefore we have;

The concentration of the intended solution = 0.250 M

Therefore, the number of moles per liter of the required resolution = 0.250 moles

Therefore, the concentration of the required solution = 0.250 moles/liter

The volume in liters of the required solution that will have 3.52 moles of the solute is given as follows;

The required volume of solution = The number of moles of the solute/(The concentration of the solution)

∴ The required volume of solution = 3.52 moles/(0.250 moles/liter) = 14.08 liters

The required volume of solution to make a 0.250 M solution from 3.52 moles of solute = 14.08 liters.

Therefore the number of liters required to make a 0.250 M solution from 3.52 moles of solute = 14.08 liters.

Energy of the Reactant: increases

Energy of the product: not at all

Rate of reaction: increases

Enthalpy: not at all

Activation energy: decreases

Explanation:

Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of reaction than normal to form a product.

Catalyst affect differently to different factors of reaction. A catalyst is meant to increase rate of reaction by lowering the activation energy, so that collision between reactant increase and that passes the energy barrier to form the product faster.

Catalyst has no effect on Enthalpy as change in enthalpy only depends on the chemical compositions of the reactants and products.

Catalyst also increases energy of reactant so that they can collide faster than before and do not affect the energy of product at all.

Hence, the correct answer is:

Energy of the Reactant: increases

Energy of the product: not at all

Rate of reaction: increases

Enthalpy: not at all

Activation energy: decreases

Answers

Answer:82.7% C and 17.3% H

Explanation:

C4 = 12.0107g/mol x 4 = 48.0428 g/mol

H10 = 1.00794 g/mol x 10 = 10.0794 g/mol

Molar Mass of Butane, C4H10 =  48.0428 g/mol + 10.0794 g/mol= 58.1222 g/mol

percent composition of Carbon is  = ( mass of carbon contained in butane / molar mass of Butane) x 100

=(48.0428 /58.1222) x 100% = 0.8265 x 100

=82.65% =82.7% of Carbon.

Percent composition of Hydrogen  = (mass of Hydrogen contained in Butane / molar mass of Butane )x 100  

( 10.0794/58.122 ) x 100% =0.1734 x 100

Based on the equation below, how many moles of aluminum sulfate (Al2(SO4)3) will be produced from the reaction of 5.8 moles of aluminum hydroxide (Al(OH)3) and excess sulfuric acid (H2SO4)? 2Al(OH)3 + 3H2SO4 → Al2(SO4)3 + 6H2O

Answers

Answer:

2.9 moles of aluminum sulfate will be produced from the reaction of 5.8 moles of aluminum hydroxide and excess sulfuric acid.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

2 Al(OH)₃ + 3 H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6 H₂O

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of each compound participate in the reaction:

Al(OH)₃: 2 moles H₂SO₄: 3 moles Al₂(SO₄)₃: 1 mole H₂O: 6 moles

Then you can apply the following rule of three: if by reaction stoichiometry 2 moles of Al(OH)₃ produce 1 mole of Al₂(SO₄)₃, then 5.8 moles of Al(OH)₃ how many moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃ will they produce?

[tex]moles of Al_{2} (SO_{4} )_{3} =\frac{5.8moles of Al(OH)_{3} *1 mole of Al_{2} (SO_{4} )_{3}}{2moles of Al(OH)_{3}}[/tex]

moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃= 2.9

2.9 moles of aluminum sulfate will be produced from the reaction of 5.8 moles of aluminum hydroxide and excess sulfuric acid.

State, in terms of the strength of intermolecular forces, why 12 has a higher boiling point than F2

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The greater the relative atomic  mass of an atom the more polarizable the atom is.

Also, the magnitude of dispersion forces depends on the molecular mass of the compound.

We must remember that both I2 and F2 are nonpolar molecules that are purely held together by dispersion forces.

Hence, I2, having the greater molecular mass and surface area experiences a greater magnitude of dispersion forces and consequently has a higher boiling point than F2.

Answer:

3.26×10⁵ L

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 3.5×10⁵ L

Initial temperature (T₁) = 27 °C

Initial pressure (P₁) = 101 KPa

Final temperature (T₂) = –10 °C

Final pressure (P₂) = 95 KPa

Final volume (V₂) =?

Next, we shall convert celsius temperature to Kelvin temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

T(K) = T(ºC) + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 27 °C

Initial temperature (T₁) = 27 °C + 273

Initial temperature (T₁) = 300 K

Final temperature (T₂) = –10 °C

Final temperature (T₂) = –10 °C + 273

Final temperature (T₂) = 263 K

Finally, we shall determine the new volume of the tank. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial volume (V₁) = 3.5×10⁵ L

Initial temperature (T₁) = 300 K

Initial pressure (P₁) = 101 KPa

Final temperature (T₂) = 263 K

Final pressure (P₂) = 95 KPa

Final volume (V₂) =?

P₁V₁ / T₁ = P₂V₂ / T₂

101 × 3.5×10⁵ / 300 = 95 × V₂ / 263

117833.333 = 95 × V₂ / 263

Cross multiply

95 × V₂ = 117833.333 × 263

95 × V₂ = 30990166.6

Divide both side by 95

V₂ = 30990166.6 / 95

V₂ = 3.26×10⁵ L

Thus, the new volume of the tank is 3.26×10⁵ L

A)Circulation of blood
B)Digestion of food
C)Production of food
D)Exchange of gases

Answers

Answer:

D

Explanation:

Lungs, Moist skin , Gills is in the exchange of gases system

The correct answer is D.

The structure of human lungs is first demonstrated in an organism.

Lungs are the respiratory organs. They are made up of alveoli.Main Function :The main function of lungs is the gaseous exchange. This gaseous exchange occurs in the alveoli. Oxygen from atmosphere comes into the lungs through nostrils, nasal cavities, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and finally reaches the lungs. Then gaseous exchange occurs between blood and alveoli. Oxygen enters into the blood and carbon dioxide leaves the blood.

The structure of Earthworms Moist skin is second demonstrated in an organism.

The earthworm has no special respiratory organs like lungs or gills. Respiration takes place through the body wall. The outer surface of the skin is richly supplied with blood capillaries which aid in the diffusion of gases. Oxygen diffuses through the skin into the blood while carbon dioxide from the blood diffuses out. The skin is kept moist by mucous and coelomic fluid and facilitates exchange of gases.

The structure of Fish Gills is third demonstrated in an organism.

The gill filaments in fish have functions like lungs in people: it's the organ responsible for absorbing oxygen and expelling carbon dioxide. The gills also regulate levels of mineral ions and the pH of the blood, as well as being the primary site of nitrogenous waste excretion, in the form of ammonia.
