Can sedimentation and decantation be used for all types of mixtures? Explain
Is there a relationship between the mass of an object and the rate of settling? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

1. Sedimentation and decantation cannot be used for all types of mixtures.

Decantation is a separation technique in which is used to separate immiscible liquids or mixtures containing liquid and solids within them.

In decantation, gravity is used to bring the denser materials to settle at the bottom.

For homogenous mixtures, it is not possible to use decantation. A solution of sugar and water will not decant.

2. Yes, mass of an object reduces the settling time of such object in a mixture.

The higher the mass, the faster the rate of settling. Also, as we know, mass is directly proportional to density. A body with a high density will settle faster in solution.

How can a mixture be separated?

Answers

Answer:

Mixtures can be physically separated by using methods that use differences in physical properties to separate the components of the mixture, such as evaporation, distillation, filtration and chromatography.

A 27.8 L balloon is filled with 7.52g of gas X and placed next to a 27.8 L balloon filled with helium.
Given that Helium has a density of 0.179g/L, which statement correctly explains the movement of the balloons
with valid justification?
a) The balloon filled with helium will float higher because helium is less dense than gas X
b) The balloon filled with gas X will float higher because gas X is less dense than helium
c) Both balloons will float to the same level because their densities are the same
d) Both balloons will float to the same level because their volumes are the same
e) There is not enough information to determine the movement of the balloons

Answers

Answer:

a) The balloon filled with helium will float higher because helium is less dense than gas X

Explanation:

Since gases are known to not have fixed density, they take up the density of their containers, let us find the density of the gas in first balloon.

 Density is the mass per unit volume;

         Density  = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]  

Insert the parameters and solve;

    mass of gas  = 7.52g

     volume of the gas  = 27.8L

          Density  = [tex]\frac{7.52}{27.8}[/tex]   = 0.271g/L

Let us compare the two densities;

 Density of gas  = 0.271g/L

 Density of helium  = 0.179g/L

We see that the density of the gas is higher than that of helium, so, it not float as high as the balloon with helium. The balloon with helium is lighter.

Dana is trying to determine if an unknown sample is a pure substance or not. The sample has a cloudy white color, and it seems evenly mixed throughout. The sample is a liquid with high viscosity. Dana tried separating the sample with a magnet with no effect. When Dana filtered the sample, larger granules of the sample were left behind in the filter. What evidence allowed Dana to conclude that the sample is NOT a pure substance?


It has a cloudy white color.


The liquid has high viscosity.


Dana tried separating the sample with a magnet with no effect.


Dana filtered the sample and larger granules of the sample were left behind.

Answers

Answer:

Dana filtered the sample and larger granules of the sample were left behind.

Explanation:

If a substance is pure, it will have a uniform composition throughout. It will not separate into particles of various sizes.

One of the characteristics of pure substances is that they are homogeneous. A mixture is definitely made up of particles of various sizes.

Since the particles was filtered and larger granules were left behind, the sample has been separated by a physical method (filtration). Only a mixture can be separated by physical methods. It is not a pure substance.

What is the specific heat of a substance that absorbs 2500 joules of heat when a sample of 100g of the substance increases in temperature from 10.°C to 70.°

Answers

Answer:

0.417 J/gºC

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Heat (Q) absorbed = 2500 J

Mass (M) of substance = 100 g

Initial temperature (T1) = 10 °C

Final temperature (T2) = 70 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Next, we shall determine the change in temperature (ΔT). This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T1) = 10 °C

Final temperature (T2) = 70 °C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

Change in temperature (ΔT) = T2 – T1

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 70 – 10

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 60 °C

Finally, we shall determine the specific heat capacity of the substance as follow:

Heat (Q) absorbed = 2500 J

Mass (M) of substance = 100 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 60 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) =?

Q = MCΔT

2500 = 100 × C × 60

2500 = 6000 × C

Divide both side by 6000

C = 2500 / 6000

C = 0.417 J/gºC

Therefore, the specific heat capacity of substance is 0.417 J/gºC

Answers

MW of gas : 124.12 g/mol

Further explanation  

Density is a quantity derived from the mass and volume  

Density is the ratio of mass per unit volume  

With the same mass, the volume of objects that have a high density will be smaller than objects with a smaller type of density  

The unit of density can be expressed in g/cm³ or kg/m³  

Density formula:  

[tex]\large {\boxed {\bold {\rho ~ = ~ \frac {m} {V}}}}[/tex]

ρ = density  

m = mass  

v = volume  

glass vessel wieight = 50 g

glass vessel + liquid = 148 ⇒ liquid = 148 - 50 =98 g

volume of glass vessel :

[tex]\tt V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}=\dfrac{98}{0.989}=99.1~ml[/tex]

An ideal gas :

m = 50.5 - 50 = 0.5 g

P = 760 mmHg = 1 atm

T = 300 K

[tex]\tt PV=\dfrac{mass(m)}{MW}.RT\\\\MW=\dfrac{m.RT}{PV}\\\\Mw=\dfrac{0.5\times 0.082\times 300}{1\times 0.0991}=124.12~g/mol[/tex]

Hi I really need help 7th grade science Water gets soaked up by a paper towel because of the property of blank Adhesion Cohesion Deposition Evaporation

Answers

Answer:

Adhesion

Explanation:

Water is soaked up by a paper towel because the forces of adhesion exceeds the forces of cohesion.

The forces of adhesion binds the water molecule to the paper towel while the forces of cohesion binds the water molecules to each other.

Adhesion of water to the walls of the paper exerts an upward force that draws water molecules up the paper.

Hence, the movement of water up a paper towel occurs when the forces of adhesion to the walls of the paper is greater than the forces of cohesion acting between the water molecules.
