Answer:

Higher

Explanation:

It looks as if you prepared zinc iodide by the reaction of zinc with iodine.

Your procedure was probably something like this:

  1. Measure out an exact amount of iodine and approximately the same mass if zinc (an excess).
  2. React them in aqueous acetic acid.
  3. Pour off the solution of zinc iodide and heat to dryness.
  4. Determine the mass of the zinc iodide.

You know the mass of iodine used, so you can get the mass of zinc by difference.

For example, assume you measured out 0.5 g of I₂ and got 0.6 g of ZnI₂ as product. You would assume it contained 0.5 g of I₂ and 0.1 g of Zn. Your calculated mass ratio would be I₂/Zn = 5/1.

The impatient student loses 0.1 g of I₂ by sublimation, so they get only 0.55 g of ZnI₂. However, they still think it contains the original 0.5 g of I₂, and they determine the mass of Zn to be 0.05 g. Their calculated mass ratio is I₂/Zn = 0.5/0.05 = 10/1.

If some of the iodine sublimes away, the calculated value for the mass ratio will be higher than the correct value.

The structure of carbonic acid, an important component of ocean chemistry, is depicted below. What type of model best describes
BabaBlast [244]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A physical model is defined as a model which represents how atoms are bonded together and structure of a molecule.

Physical model shows the three dimensional structure of a molecule. Physical models helps to easily understand and visualize the configuration, single bonds, double bonds and total atoms within a molecule.

Thus, we can conclude that given structure of carbonic acid best describes a physical model.

For a hydrogen atom, which electronic transition would result in the emission of a photon with the highest energy?
BartSMP [9]

Answer: A

Explanation:

Considering the order of filling electrons into orbitals, movement from a higher to a lower energy level results in the emission of a photon with energy equal to the energy difference between the two energy levels. However, the energies of different orbitals are close together for high values of n (principal quantum number). Their relative energies may change significantly when they form ions. This implies that energy levels are better separated and have high differences in energy for low values of n. Hence the answer. This means that photons transiting between these Lowe n levels will posses higher photon energy due to larger energy difference between levels.

If a large marshmallow has a volume of 2.75 in3 and density of 0.242 g/cm3, how much would it weigh in grams? 1 in3=16.39 cm3.
Anestetic [448]
<span>
•   </span>Volume of the marshmallow:

V = 2.75 in^3          (but, 1 in^3 = 16.39 cm^3)

V = 2.75 × 16.39 cm^3

V = 2.75 × 16.39 cm^3

V = 45.0725 cm^3


•   Density:

d = 0.242 g/cm^3


<span>•  </span>Mass:

m = d × V

m = (0.242 g/cm^3) × (45.0725 cm^3)

m = (0.242 g/cm^3) × (45.0725 cm^3)

m = 10.907545 g

m ≈ 10.9 g   <——<span>—  this is the answer.


I hope this helps. =)

Which best describes heat?
adelina 88 [10]
The last option, "Energy that flows from a hot mug of tea to a cold hand." Hope this helps!

(This is because heat is the transfer of energy that you can well, feel. In simple terms. For this question and other like it you can do process of elimination because the only one that involves heat, is the last option.)

6. Un volumen de 1.0 mL de agua de mar contiene casi 4 x 10-12 g de Au. El volumen total de agua en los océanos es de 1.5 x 1021
Aleks [24]

Answer:

The total amount of Au is $ 2.0\times10^{24}

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of 1.0 ml of Au m=4\times10^{-2}\ g

Total volume of water in oceans V=1.5\times10^{21}\ L

We need to calculate the volume in ml

Using given volume

V=1.5\times10^{21}\times1000\ mL

V=1.5\times10^{24}\ mL

We need to calculate the total mass of Au  

Using given data

1\ ml\ volume = 4\times10^{-2}\ g

1.5\times10^{24}\ ml=4\times10^{-2}\times1.5\times10^{24}

So, The total mass of Au is 6\times10^{22}\ g

The mass will be in ounce,

Mass=0.035274\times6\times10^{22}

Mass=2.12\times10^{21}\ ounce

The total amount of the Au Will be

Total\ amount=2.12\times10^{21}\times948

Total\ amount=2.0\times10^{24}

Hence, The total amount of Au is $ 2.0\times10^{24}
