Why does salt sprinkled on icy roads cause the ice to melt?​

Answers

Answer 1
it lowers the melting point
Answer 2

Answer:

The actual reason that the application of salt causes ice to melt is that a solution of water and dissolved salt has a lower freezing point than pure water. When added to ice, salt first dissolves in the film of liquid water that is always present on the surface, thereby lowering its freezing point below the ices temperature. Ice in contact with salty water therefore melts, creating more liquid water, which dissolves more salt, thereby causing more ice to melt, and so on.

Find the mass of 4.56 mols of LaPO4

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 1080.26 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of LaPO₄ = 4.56mol

Mass in gram = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of LaPO₄ = 236.9 g/mol

by putting values,

4.56 mol = mass/ 236.9 g/mol

Mass = 4.56 mol  × 236.9 g/mol

Mass = 1080.26 g

Based only on the distance between the valence electron and the nucleus, which atom has a stronger attraction between its nucleus and its valence electrons? How do you know? Please explain in at least 2 sentences.


lithium and sodium

Answers

Answer:

Lithium

Explanation:

Although sodium may seem like a viable answer because it has more protons (and thus a greater attractive force) in its nucleus, we need to take into account what "valence electrons" means. Valence electrons are, simply, electrons that are on the outermost electron shell of an atom. Sodium has an additional shell of electrons compared to lithium that are far away from the nucleus. Thus, lithium, which has valence electrons closer to its nucleus, would have a stronger attraction between its nucleus and its valence electrons.

Sunlight reaches Earth's atmosphere and is scattered in all directions by all the gases and particles in the air. Blue light is scattered more than the other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time. Blue light is scattered in all directions by the tiny molecules of air in Earth's atmosphere. Blue is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time. ... Also, the surface of Earth has reflected and scattered the light.

Empirical formula is C₅H₁₂O

Molecular formula = C₅H₁₂O

Explanation:

Given data:

Percentage of hydrogen =13.75%

Percentage of carbon = 68.11%

Percentage of oxygen = 18.15%

Empirical formula = ?

Solution:

Number of gram atoms of H = 13.75 / 1.01 = 13.6

Number of gram atoms of O = 18.15 / 16 = 1.13

Number of gram atoms of C = 68.11 / 12 = 5.68

Atomic ratio:

            C                      :      H               :         O

           5.68/1.13           :     13.6/1.13     :       1.13/1.13

            5                      :        12          :        1

C : H : O = 5 : 12 : 1

Empirical formula is C₅H₁₂O.

Molecular formula:

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

n = molar mass of compound / empirical formula mass

Empirical formula mass :

5×12 + 12×1.01 + 16×1 = 88.12 g/mol

n = 88.17/ 88.12

n = 1

Molecular formula = n (empirical formula)

Molecular formula = 1 (C₅H₁₂O)

Molecular formula = C₅H₁₂O

What is chemical formula ?

Chemical  formula is a way of representing the number of atoms present in a compound or molecule.It is written with the help of symbols  of elements. It also makes use of brackets and subscripts.

Subscripts are used to denote number of atoms of each element and brackets indicate presence of group of atoms. Chemical formula does not contain words. Chemical formula in the simplest form  is called empirical formula.

It is not the same as structural formula and does not have any information regarding structure.It does not provide any information regarding structure of molecule as obtained in structural formula.

B 0.1439
C 0.287g
D 0.574g
(Total for Question 5 = 1 mark)

Answers

Answer:

Mass = 0.287 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of MgCl₂ = 0.001 mol

Mass of precipitate formed (AgCl) = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

MgCl₂(aq) + 2AgNO₃(aq)    →       Mg(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2AgCl (s)

now we will compare the moles of MgCl₂ and AgCl.

            MgCl₂           :            AgCl

                1                :             2

           0.001             :       2/1×0.001 = 0.002

Mass of AgCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.002 mol × 143.4 g/mol

Mass = 0.287 g
