4. Which of these terms describes the process of acid rain wearing away limestone?

Acryptic erosion

B.chemical weathering

C.cryptobiotic weathering

D.chemical erosion

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Chemical weathering

Explanation:

Erosion is the process whereby the soil and rocks are washed away by wind, water, ice or gravity.

Weathering is the process of weakening and breaking down of rocks and minerals either by non-living (abiotic) or living (biotic) factors or by both, such as temperature changes, plants and animals, acids, salts and water, etc.

From the above definitions, it can be seen that acid wearing away limestone is a rock weathering process by a non-living agent, an acid.

Option A is wrong because the process is weathering

Option B is correct because an acid is a chemical and the process involved is weathering

Option C is wrong because an acid is non-living

Option D is wrong because the process involved is weathering

A 14.00-g piece of iron absorbs 1000 joules of heat energy, and its temperature changes from 25°C to 125°C. Calculate the specific heat capacity of iron.

Answers

Answer:

THE SPECIFIC HEAT OF IRON IS 0.714 J/g °C

Explanation:

Heat  absorbed = 1000 J

Mass of the piece of iron = 14 g

Temeperature changes = ( 125-25)°C= 100°C

specific heat of iron = unknown

To find the specific heat of iron in the question use the formula of heat

Heat = mass * specific heat * temperature change

Specific heat = Heat / mass * temperature change

Specific heat = 1000 / 14 * 100

Specific heat = 1000 / 1400

Specific heat = 0.714 J/g °C

So therefore, the specific heat of iron is 0.714 J/g °C

let's consider the effectiveness of two antacids to illustrate how chemical calculations can be important in daily life. Baking soda NaHCO3, is often used as an antacid. It neutralizes excess hydrochloric acid sereted by stomach. The balanced equation for the reaction is NaHCO3(s)+HCl(aq)=H20(l)+CO2(g). Milk of magnesia, which is an aqueous suspension of magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2(s)+2HCl(aq)=2H20(l)+MgCl2(aq), Which anatacid can consume the most stomach acid, 1.00g of NaHCO3,or 1.00g of Mg (OH)2?

Answers

Answer:

Milk of Magnesia would consume the most stomach acid at almost 3 times the amount as baking soda.

Explanation:

Baking Soda = NaHCO3(s)+HCl(aq)=H20(l)+CO2(g)

NaHCO3 Molar mass of 84.007 g/mol

0.012 Moles of NaHCO3 and since an equal ratio of HCl is required

we therefore neutralize 0.012 Moles of HCl

Milk of magnesia = Mg(OH)2(s)+2HCl(aq)=2H20(l)+MgCl2(aq)

Mg(OH)2(s) Molar mass: 58.3197 g/mol

0.017 Moles of Mg(OH)2 and the ratio is 2:1, so 2 moles for each 1 mole of Mg(OH)2, so we need 0.034 Moles of HCl

Solids, liquids and gases are the three most commonly accepted phases of matter. Explain the properties of each phase, including their relative energy.

Answers

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

The molecules of a substance attract each other.

They are also in constant motion.

Their kinetic energy increases with the temperature.

1. Solids

If the temperature is low enough, the molecules will have little kinetic energy.

They will not be able to escape the attractions of their neighbours, so they will be fixed in place in a crystalline array.

All they can do is vibrate about their position in the array.

The substance will be a solid.

2. Liquids

If the temperature is higher, the molecules will have enough kinetic energy to slide past each other, but not enough to escape the attractions of nearby molecules.

The substance will be a liquid.

3. Gases

If the temperature is high enough, the molecules will have enough kinetic energy to escape from the surface and fly off into space.

The molecules will on average so far apart that they won't feel the attractions of others.

When they do collide, they will have energy to bounce off each other rather than stick together.

The substance will be a gas.

A 2.575 g piece of gold (specific heat = 0.129 J/g°C) at a temperature of 75°C is placed into cold water at 10°C. If the gold loses 10.0 J of energy, what is its final

temperature in the water? Enter your answer to the

nearest whole number of °C.

Answers

Answer:

The final temperature of the mixture is 44.9°C

Explanation:

Mass of the substance (gold) = 2.575g

Specific heat capacity of gold = 0.129J/g°C

Initial temperature (T1) = 75°C

Final temperature (T2) = ?

Energy lost = 10J

Heat energy(Q) = MC∇T

Q = heat energy (in this case lost)

M = mass of the substance

C = specific heat capacity of the substance

∇T = change in temperature of the substance = (T2 - T1)

Q = MC∇T

Q = MC(T2 - T1)

-10 = 2.575 × 0.129 × (T2 - 75) energy is -ve because it was energy lost.

-10 = 0.3321 × (T2 - 75)

-10 = 0.3321T2 - 24.9075

Collect like terms

0.3321T2 = 24.9075 - 10

0.3321T2 = 14.9075

T2 = 14.9075 / 0.3321

T2 = 44.88

T2 = 44.9°C

The final temperature of the mixture is 44.9°C

Ethyl acetate is a sweet-smelling solvent used in varnishes and fingernail polish remover. It is produced industrially by heating acetic acid and ethanol
together in the presence of sulfuric acid, which is added to speed up the
reaction. The ethyl acetate is distilled off as it is formed. The equation for the
process is as follows.

CH3COOH + CH3CH2OH --> CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O

Determine the percentage yield in the following cases:
a. 68.3 g of ethyl acetate should be produced but only 43.9 g is recovered.
b. 0.0419 mol of ethyl acetate is produced but 0.0722 mol is expected. (Hint:
Percentage yield can also be calculated by dividing the actual yield in moles
by the theoretical yield in moles.)
c. 4.29 mol of ethanol is reacted with excess acetic acid, but only 2.98 mol of
ethyl acetate is produced.
d. A mixture of 0.58 mol ethanol and 0.82 mol acetic acid is reacted and 0.46
mol ethyl acetate is produced. (Hint: What is the limiting reactant?)

Answers

Answer:

a) 64.27%

b) 58%

c) ethanol is the limiting reactant

d) ethanol is the limiting reactant

Explanation:

We have to note that the expected yield is the theoretical yield while the actual mass or amount of product formed is the actual yield.

a) theoretical yield=68.3g

Actual yield= 43.9 g

Percentage yield= 43.9/68.3 ×100

Percentage yield= 64.27%

b) theoretical yield= 0.0722 moles

Actual yield = 0.0419

Percentage yield= 0.0419/0.0722 × 100

Percentage yield= 58%

c) note that the limiting reactant yields the least number of moles of product

Ethanol will be the limiting reactant since it is not present in excess.

d) from the reaction equation;

1 mole of acetic acid produces 1 mole of ethyl acetate

0.58 moles of ethanol produces 0.58 moles of ethyl acetate

1 mole of acetic acid yields 1 mole of ethyl acetate

Hence 0.82 moles of acetic acid yields 0.82 moles of ethyl acetate

Hence ethanol is the limiting reactant.

A 500ml bottle contains 2.50 moles of gas. What is the new volume when the number of miles is increased 5.00 moles?

Answers

Answer:

The new volume is 1,000ml

Explanation:

Mathematically, we know that the number of moles per ml(volume) should be constant irrespective of the increase.

Initially, we have a volume of 500 ml and number of moles of 2.5 moles

The ratio of the number of moles to the volume is 2.5/500 = 0.005 mole/ml

Now, this is expected to remain the same even if we have an increment.

let’s call the new volume x

0.005 mol/ml = 5 moles/x ml

x = 5/0.005 = 1,000 ml

The density was of a solution of sulfuric acid is 1.285g/cm3 and it is 38.08% (by weight) acid. How many millimeters of the acid solution do you need to supply 125 grams of sulfuric acid?

Answers

Answer:

255.5cm³

Explanation:

A solution that is 38.08 % by weight has 38.08g of sulfuric acid per 100g of total solution. Thus, mass of solution you need to obtain 125g is:

125g H₂SO₄ × (100g solution / 38.08g H₂SO₄) = 328.3g of solution

As density of the solution is 1.285g / cm³, the volume of 328.3g is:

328.3g × (1cm³ / 1.285g) = 255.5cm³
