The liquid substances mercury (density = 13.6 g/mL), water (1.00 g/mL), and cyclohexane (0.778 g/mL) do not form a solution when mixed; instead, they separate in distinct layers. List how the liquids would position themselves in a test tube. Rank the liquids from the top of the tube to the bottom.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Cyclohexane, water, mercury.

Explanation:

One result of Archimedes' principle is that, in a container, the substance with the highest density will be in the bottom of the container and the substance with the lowest density, will be in the top of the container.

In the test tube with mercury, water and cyclohexane. In the top you will have cyclohexane (Least dense), in the middle will be the water and in the bottom will be mercury.

From the top to the bottom:

Cyclohexane, water, mercury.

A student tested a sample of carbon (C) by combining it with water. There was no reaction between the carbon and water. The student concluded that carbon must be a group 18 element, since it was unreactive. State whether you agree with the student's reasoning, and explain why or why not?

Answers

I disagree. Carbon is not a group 18 element. This is incorrect because elements closer to the top of the group are less reactive than those at the bottom of the group. Group 18 elements are noble gases and carbon, a group 14 element, is a non metal.

The table lists the lattice energies of some compounds. Compound Lattice Energy (kJ/mol) LiF –1,036 LiCl –853 NaF –923 KF –821 NaCl –786 Which statement about crystal lattice energy is best supported by the information in the table? The lattice energy increases as cations get smaller, as shown by LiF and KF. The lattice energy increases as the charge of anions increases, as shown by LiF and LiCl. The lattice energy decreases as anions get smaller, as shown by NaCl and NaF. The lattice energy decreases as the charge of cations decreases, as shown by NaF and KF.

Answers

Answer :Option A) The lattice energy increases as cations get smaller, as shown by LiF and KF.

Explanation : It is observed that lattice energy is mostly influenced by two main factors of an ionic solid which are;

i) The charge on the ions - As the charge of the ions increases, the lattice energy is observed to increase too.

and

ii) The radius, or size, of the ions- As the size of the ions increases, the lattice energy decreases with it.

So, here in this question the second reason is clearly observed. Hence, it is self-explained that the size of the cations are decreased in the ionic solids the lattice energy increases.

The best and the most correct answer among the choices provided by the question is the first choice. The statement the supports the information is "The lattice energy increases as cations get smaller, as shown by LiF and KF." I hope my answer has come to your help. God bless and have a nice day ahead!

What type of bonds form salt crystals

Answers

For the answer to the question above, I believe it is anA ionic bond because NaCl is a bond between a metal and a non-metal. Na has a +1 charge and Cl has a -1 charge, therefore there is an exchange of ions between both elements to achieve a stable configuration.

Half-life is the time it takes for the radioactive material's mass to decrease by half.

So, half of 96 is 48
half of 48 is 24
half of 24 is 12
half of 12 is 6

96->48->24->12->6

You count how many arrows (->) there is.
Which is 4

Then you use the 12 minutes the question gave you to do:
12 divided by 4
= 3

So, one half-life (Or the time it takes for the radioactive material's mass to decrease in half) is 3 minutes

and every 3 minutes it will decrease by half.

Which bond is most polar? A) N -H
B) C -H
C) O -H
D) H -H
Can anyone explain this one?

Answers

 A) N is more polar because of it electron negativity charge ex. N electron negativity charge is 3.0 and H is 2.1 
 B) C is more polar...electron negativity for C is 2.5 AND H is 2.1 
 C)O is more polar dues to it electron negativity charge being greater that hydrogen 
 D)H and H are both non polar because they cancel each other out due to the face the both share the electron negativity evenly 
 C .. ectronegativity values for each of the atoms but if you didn't know these you can just look at your periodic table and see where they are in relation to each other
