why is snow a better insulator than ice?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Snow is a better insulator than ice because snow contains air packets inside it and air is a good insulator of heat. Due to this, snow takes longer time to melt than the ice of the same mass.

Explanation:

Answer 2

Snow contains air packets inside it; air is a good heat insulator

If you have 6.00 x 10^24 molecules of oxygen how many moles of oxygen would you have?

36.00 moles of oxygen
9.96 moles of oxygen
12.02 moles of oxygen
1.02 moles of oxygen

Answers

Answer:

9.96 moles of oxygen

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of molecule of oxygen = 6.00×10²⁴ molecules

Number of moles of oxygen = ?

Solution:

1 mole contain 6.022 ×10²³ molecules

6.00×10²⁴ molecules × 1 moles of oxygen  / 6.022 ×10²³ molecules

0.996×10¹ moles of oxygen

9.96 moles of oxygen

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

Which property is conserved in both nuclear reactions and chemical
reactions?
A. Total number of protons and neutrons
O B. Number of atoms
C. Total mass of atoms
O D. Type of atoms

Answers

Answer:

A. Total number of protons and neutrons

Explanation:

In both nuclear reactions and chemical reactions, the total number of protons and neutrons are conserved.

It implies that the starting number of protons and neutrons in both reactions must be the same.

Chemical reactions involves, loss, gain or sharing electrons between two atoms.

Nuclear reactions deals with the nucleus of an atom.

It must be ensured that the mass and atomic number in nuclear reactions is conserved.

Lead melts at 328 ℃. How much heat is required when 23.0 g of solid lead at 297 K condenses to a liquid at 702 K?

Answers

Heat = 1.74 kJ

Further explanation

Given

melts at 328 ℃ + 273 = 601 K

mass = 23 g = 0.023 kg

initial temperature = 297 K

Final tmperature = 702 K

Required

Heat

Solution

1. raise the temperature(297 to 601 K)

c of lead = 0.130 kJ/kg K

Q = 0.023 x 0.13 x (601-297)

Q = 0.909 kJ

2. phase change(solid to liquid)

Q = m.Lf (melting/freezing)

Q = 0.023 x 23 kj/kg = 0.529 kJ

3. raise the temperature(601 to 702 K)

Q = 0.023 x 0.13 x (702-601)

Q = 0.302 kJ

Total heat = 1.74 kJ

In the wintertime, you decide to buy a helium balloon at Dollar Tree. It is fully
inflated in the store. However, when you walk outside in the cold, the balloon
deflates quite a bit. So, you go back into the store, to exchange it for a different
balloon. But once you walk back into the warm store, the balloon is fully inflated!
Why does the balloon deflate outside in the cold winter weather and inflate inside
the warm store? Which gas law, (Charles, Boyle, Guy-Lussacs law) causes this to
happen?
lyse

Answers

Answer:

The reason that the balloon shrinks is because when the temperature drops, helium becomes more dense then it already is. So what happens is that its molecules lose energy, slows down and moves closer together to conserve heat and this decreases the volume inside the balloon because the helium molecules are moving closer together, rather than outward toward the shell of the balloon which cause the balloon to swell then shrink. The gas law that causes this to happen is the Charles law.

Explanation:

Answer:

When the temperature decreases the pressure decreases with it, causing it to crumple or deflate.

What is the molal concentration of a sucrose (C12H22011) solution whose freezing point is
-2.00 °C? The Kf for water is 1.86 °C/m.

Answers

Answer: The molal concentration of sucrose solution is 1.07 m

Explanation:

Depression in freezing point is given by:

[tex]\Delta T_f=i\times K_f\times m[/tex]

[tex]\Delta T_f=T_f^0-T_f=0.00-(-2.00)^0C=2.00^0C[/tex] = Depression in freezing point

i= vant hoff factor = 1 (for non electrolyte such as sucrose)

[tex]K_f[/tex] = freezing point constant = [tex]1.86^0C/m[/tex]

m= molality

Putting in the values:

[tex]2.00^0C=1\times 1.86^0C/m\times m[/tex]

[tex]m=1.07[/tex]

Thus molal concentration of sucrose solution is 1.07 m

__H3PO4 + __NaBr —> __HBr + ___Na3PO4

Answers

Answer:

 H₃PO₄    +    3NaBr  →    3HBr        +    Na₃PO₄

Explanation:

The unbalanced reaction expression is given as:

            H₃PO₄    +    NaBr  →    HBr        +    Na₃PO₄

We need to balance the expression.

Let us assign variable a, b, c and d and solve mathematically;

       aH₃PO₄    +    bNaBr  →    cHBr        +    dNa₃PO₄

Conserving H : 3a  = c

                   P:   a  = d

                   O :  4a  = 4d

                   Na:   b = 3d

                    Br:    b  = c

Let a  = 1, c  = 3, d  = 1, b  = 3

So:

     H₃PO₄    +    3NaBr  →    3HBr        +    Na₃PO₄

The mass and volume of each sample differ from the mass and volume of the other samples. Is it possible for each sample to contain 1 mol of each substance?

A. No, because they have different masses.
B. No, because they have different volumes.
C. Yes, if each sample contains 6.02 x 1023 atoms.
D. Yes, if each sample contains 2 amu.

Answers

Answer:

C. Yes, if each sample contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms.

Explanation:

It is possible for each sample to contain 1 mole of each sample if and only if each of the sample if made up of 6.02 x 10²³ atoms.

6.02 x 10²³ atoms is the Avogadro's number. This number is equivalent to a mole of a substance.

If the amount of matter in the given substance is at least one mole, it is possible that they are made up of one mole each of each substance. If they contain lesser amount of atoms, then it is not up to one mole of substance. But if it is greater, then, we can have even more than one mole of substance.

A mole is simply a unit of measurement and it is equivalent to 6.02 x 10²³ atoms.
