What are the extensive and intensive properties described in this experiment? Which properties would change and which would stay the same if you ran the experiment sing 7.5-ounce cans instead of 12- ounce cans?

Answers

No because the amount of the water stays the same

Intensive properties do not change as the size of an object changes but Extensive properties change as the size of an object changes; here the properties can not change because the amount of the water stays the same

What are the difference between Extensive property and Intensive Property ?

The physical properties of matter can be divided into  intensive and extensive properties and the terms are introduced in 1917 by Richard C Tolman.

Intensive properties are independent of the presence of number of substance and they are bulk properties, here the Characteristic doesn’t change.

The size of intensive properties cannot change, examples are Density, temperature, pressure etc. It can not depend on the amount of matter and also intensive properties are fixed, countable.

Extensive properties are dependent on the presence of  number of substance, easily identified, Size of Extensive properties changes and  It can be computed.

extensive properties depend on the amount of matter, often changes and are not countable; For example Volume, size, mass, length, weight

Why are polar and non polar liquids immiscible?

Answers

Answer:

When both liquid molecules are polar then they can attract one another - which leads to mixing (miscibility).

When the molecular liquid is nonpolar, then the water molecules attract only one another while ignoring the nonpolar liquid. the result is that the two liquids are immiscible.

Explanation:

I hope it helps mark me brainliest^^

Answer:

They lack lack inter-molecular forces to disolve in the polar liquids.

Explanation:

Miscibility is the property of two substances to mix in all proportions (that is, to fully dissolve in each other at any concentration). Polar molecules like water will mix well with some other polar molecules but things like oil which are non polar do not mix well with polar molecules. This is because the oil and water lack inter-molecular forces to keep them mixed.

A 0.563 M solution of the salt NaA has a pH of 11.56. Calculate the Ka value for the acid HA. Record your answer in scientific notation to 3 sig figs.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle K_a = 4.24\times 10^{-10}[/tex]

Explanation:

Write the base reaction of NaA with water:

[tex]\displaystyle \text{A}^-_\text{(aq)}+\text{H$_2$O}_\text{($\ell$)}\rightleftharpoons \text{HA}_\text{(aq)} + \text{OH}^-_\text{(aq)}[/tex]

Hence, the equilibrium constant expression for the reaction is:
[tex]\displaystyle K_b = \frac{[\text{OH}^-][\text{HA}]}{[\text{A}^-]}[/tex]

Thus, to find Ka, we can find Kb and use the fact that Ka × Kb = Kw.

From the reaction and initial concentration of NaA, create an ICE chart:

[tex]\begin{tabular}{llllll} & A^- &\text{H$_2$O} & \rightleftharpoons & HA & OH^- \\I & 0.563 M & \---- & & 0 M & 0 M \\C & -\text{ $ x$} & \---- & & +\text{ $x$ M} & + \text{$x$ M} \\E & \text{(0.563 - $x$) M} & \---- & & \text{$x$ M} & \text{$x$ M} \end{tabular}[/tex]

Find [OH⁻] from the given pH:
[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \text{pH} +\text{pOH} & = 14.00 \\ \\ \text{pOH} & = 14.00 - \text{pH} \\ \\ & = 14.00 - (11.56) \\ \\ & = 2.44 \\ \\ -\log[\text{OH}^-] & = 2.44 \\ \\ [\text{OH}^-] &= 10^{-2.44} \\ \\ & =0.00363 \text{ M}= 3.63\times 10^{-3} \text{ M} = x\text{ M}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Solve for all species concentrations at equilibrium from the found x value:

[tex]\displaystyle [\text{HA}] = [\text{OH}^-] = 3.63\times 10^{-3} \text{ M}[/tex]

And:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \ [\text{A}^-] & = 0.563 - 3.63\times 10^{-3} \text{ M}\\ \\ & = 0.559\text{ M}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Find Kb:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} \displaystyle K_b &= \frac{[\text{OH}^-][\text{HA}]}{[\text{A}^-]} \\ \\ & = \frac{(3.63\times 10^{-3})(3.63\times 10^{-3})}{(0.559)}\\ \\ & = 2.36\times 10^{-5}\end{aligned}[/tex]

Find Ka:

[tex]\displaystyle \begin{aligned} K_a\cdot K_b & = K_w \\ \\ K_a & = \frac{K_w}{K_b} \\ \\ & = \frac{(1.00 \times 10^{-14})}{(2.36\times 10^{-5})} \\ \\ &= 4.24\times 10^{-10} \end{aligned}[/tex]

In conclusion:

N2+3H2 → 2NH3

A) How many grams of NH3 can be produced from the reaction of 28g of N2 and 25g of H2?
I need the steps to the answer 34g

B) How much of the excess reagent is left over?
I need steps to the answer 19 g

Answers

Explanation:

N2 (g) + H2 (g) gives out NH3 (g)

Now balance it. You have two reactants with compositions involving a single element, which makes it very easy to keep track of how much is on each side. I would balance the nitrogens, and then the hydrogens.

Now balance it. You have two reactants with compositions involving a single element, which makes it very easy to keep track of how much is on each side. I would balance the nitrogens, and then the hydrogens.(If you balance the hydrogen reactant with a whole number first, I can guarantee you that you will have to give NH3 a new stoichiometric coefficient.)

N2 (g) + 3H2 (g) gives out 2NH3 (g)

The stoichiometric coefficients tell you that if we can somehow treat every component in the reaction as the same (like on a per-mol basis, hinthint), then one "[molar] equivalent" of nitrogen yields two [molar] equivalents of ammonia.

Luckily, one mol of anything is equal in quantity to one mol of anything else because the comparison is made in the units of mols.

So what do we do? Convert to

mols (remember the hint?).

28g N2 × 1 mol N2/ 2 × 14.007) g N2

= 0.9995 mol N2

At this point you don't even need to calculate the number of mols of H2 . Why? Because H2 is about 2 g/mol, which means we have over 10 mols of H2. We have 1 mol N2, and we need three times as many mols of H2 as we have

N2.

After doing the actual calculation you should realize that we have about 4 times as much H2 as we need. Therefore the limiting reagent is clearly N2.

Thus, we should yield 2×0.9995=1.9990 mols of NH3 (refer back to the reaction). So this is the second and last calculation we need to do:

1.9990 mol NH3 × 17.0307 g NH3/ 1 mol NH3

= 34.0444 g NH3

34grams of NH₃ can be produced from the reaction of 28g of N₂ and 25g of H₂ and 19g of the excess reagent is left over.

What is Mole?

The mole is an amount unit similar to familiar units like pair, dozen, gross, etc. It provides a specific measure of the number of atoms or molecules in a bulk sample of matter.

A mole is defined as the amount of substance containing the same number of atoms, molecules, ions, etc. as the number of atoms in a sample of pure 12C weighing exactly 12 g.

Given,

Mass of N₂ = 28g

Mass of H₂ = 25g

Moles of N₂ = mass / molar mass

                    = 28 / 28

                   = 1 mole

Moles of H₂ = 25 / 2

                     = 12.5 moles

Since the number of moles of N₂ is lesser, the amount of products formed depends on the moles of N₂.

From the reaction,

1 mole of N₂ gives 2 moles of NH₃

So, Mass of NH₃ in 2 moles = 2 × 17

                                              = 34g

B) From the reaction,

1 mole of N₂ reacts with 3 moles of H₂.

The number of Moles of H₂ left = 12.5 - 3

                                                    = 9.5 moles

Mass of excess reagent left = moles left × molar mass of H₂

                                             = 9.5 × 2

                                             = 19g

Therefore, 34grams of NH₃ can be produced from the reaction of 28g of N₂ and 25g of H₂ and 19g of the excess reagent is left over.

A rubber ball is held 4.0 m above a concave spherical mirror with a radius of curvature of 1.5 m. At time equals zero, the ball is dropped from rest and falls along the principal axis of the mirror. How much time elapses before the ball and its image are at the same location?

Answers

The time elapsed when the ball placed above the concave mirror and the image formed would be at the same location is 0.55 s.

Image distance

The position of the image formed is determined using the followimg mirror formula;

[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{v} + \frac{1}{u}[/tex]

where;

f is the focal length of the mirrorv is the image distanceu is the object distance

f = R/2

f = 1.5/2

f = 0.75 m

When the ball and its image is in the same position, u = v

The position of the ball is calculated as;

[tex]\frac{1}{f} = \frac{1}{u} + \frac{1}{u} \\\\\frac{1}{f} = \frac{2}{u} \\\\u = 2f\\\\u = 2(0.75)\\\\u = 1.5 \ m[/tex]

Time of motion of the ball

The time taken for the ball to travel the caluclated distance is determined as;

h = ut + ¹/₂gt²

1.5 = 0  + ¹/₂(9.8)t²

1.5 = 4.9t²

t² = 1.5/4.9

t² = 0.306
