1. Answer;
Copper (ii) carbonate.
The name of the compound CuCO3 is copper (ii) carbonate.
Explanation;
Cu is the chemical symbol for the copper and CO3 is the chemical symbol for the carbonate group and each one of them has valency of two. Therefore, a compound CuCO3 is formed.
2. Answer;
Yes
Ca2+ reacted with Na2S to form CaS and Na+
Explanation:
Calcium ions reacts with sodium sulfide to form calcium sulfide and sodium ions.
For example; a salt of calcium, calcium carbonate reacts with sodium sulfide to form sodium carbonate and calcium sulfide.
3. Answer;
NaCl and Ag+ do not form a product
Explanation;
The reaction between sodium chloride and silver metal will not take place. This is because silver (Ag) is less reactive than sodium metal and therefore cannot displace sodium from its salt. In other words, silver metal is lower in the reactivity series as compared to sodium metal which indicates sodium metal is more reactive than silver.
4. Answer;
Formation of a white precipitate ; this indicates that silver sulfide is insoluble in water.
Explanation;
When an aqueous solution containing Ag+ ions is added to aqueous solution of sodium sulfide (Na2S), there will be formation of white precipitate. Formation of white precipitate indicates that a reaction has taken place to form a water insoluble compound. The water insoluble compound occurs as a precipitate. The white precipitate is silver sulfide (Ag2S)
2 Ag+ (aq) + Na2S(aq) ----- Ag2S (s) + 2 Na+ (aq)
In a 0.01 M solution of HCl, Litmus will be red. Litmus paper will turn into red in acidic conditions. Hydrochloric acid is an acid. Litmus is an indicator for acidity and alkalinity made from inchens.
Answer:
Temperature affects Seismic Wave speed.
Explanation:
Both temperature and pressure affect the speed of Seismic waves. The Speed of Seismic waves increases uniformly as pressure increases, meaning that as depth increases, pressure also increases which causes Seismic Wave speeds to increase as well. This can be calculated and the data can be gathered. Temperature on the other hand decreases the speed of Seismic Waves, therefore we can calculate the difference of speed between what the Seismic Wave should be at a certain pressure with the actual speed gathered. This difference in speed will allow us to determine the actual temperature at that level.
Answer:
1. Galvanic oxidation. Example is the corrosion of aluminium wires when in contact with copper wires under wet conditions.
2. Rainwater or Damp/moist air
3. Chromium-plated steel screws or stainless steel screws or galvanized steel screws
Explanation:
1. Galvanic oxidation or corrosion occurs when two different metals with different electrode potentials are brought into contact with each other by means of an electrolyte (usually a aqueous solution), such that a redox reaction occurs leading to one metal with the more negative electrode potential (the anode) becoming oxidized, while the other less negative potential (the cathode) is reduced.
In order for galvanic corrosion to occur, three elements are required.
i. Two metals with different corrosion potentials (anode and cathode)
ii. Direct metal-to-metal electrical contact
iii. A conductive electrolyte solution (e.g. water) must connect the two metals on a regular basis.
For example oxidation (corrosion) of aluminium wires when in contact with copper wire under wet conditions.
2. The most likely electrolyte will be rainwater containing dissoved solutes (if the panel is in an exposed part of the house) or damp/moist air.
3. From the table, the most likely screw will be chromium-plated steel screws or stainless steel (made of iron and nickel) screws or galvanized steel (zinc-plated) screws.
All these possible screw components have a more negative electrode potential than copper. Thus they will serve as the anode in a galvanic oxidation with copper.
