This description applies and is suitable for what a chemical precipitate is. A precipitate is a product that is formed from a certain chemicals reaction that yields a solid that is insoluble in the reaction vessel. It is usually white and opaque.

Explain why copper is used for the<br> roofs of some buildings and magnesium is not.

Scrat [10]

Answer:

Because of the less reactivity of copper.

Explanation:

As well as being resistant to the elements and thereby less likely to be affected by rainfall, hail, and mildew than other types of roofing, copper is also one of the most fireproof materials available. Copper is also highly resistant to thermal changes and thereby doesn't deteriorate quickly.

Magnesium would also corrode PDQ. Magnesium sheeting would also pose an unacceptably high fire hazard.

Ben put 100 ml of water and 100 ml of oil in a beaker then he stirred the mixture. Which is the best way to quickly separate the

RSB [31]

To separate oil from water, add a solution of soluble ionic salt to the solution. Distillation, which involves boiling and condensing the water, is another option, as well as partially freezing the oil and water combination and discarding one-fourth to one-third of the unfrozen water.

For the Zn - Cu^2+ voltaic cell Zn(s) + Cu^2+(aq, 1M) + Cu(s) E degree _cell = 1.10 V Given that the standard reduction potentia

Fittoniya [83]

Answer : The value of $E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}$ is, 0.34 V

Explanation :

Here, copper will undergo reduction reaction will get reduced. Zinc will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The oxidation-reduction half cell reaction will be,

Oxidation half reaction: $Zn\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+2e^-$

Reduction half reaction: $Cu^{2+}+2e^-\rightarrow Cu$

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode. That means, gold shows reduction and occurs at cathode and chromium shows oxidation and occurs at anode.

The overall balanced equation of the cell is,

$Zn+Cu^{2+}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+Cu$

To calculate the $E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-E^o_{(Zn^{2+}/Zn)}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.10V=E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}-(-0.76V)$

$E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}=0.34V$

Hence, the value of $E^o_{(Cu^{2+}/Cu)}$ is, 0.34 V

Can Air can be warmed or cooled by the surface below

suter [353]

I believe it can be warm because usually the surface below us is warm itself, causing the air to be warm as well. The temperature can vary as well

What was a Parthian battery?

timama [110]

Answer:

Scientists believe the batteries (if that is their correct function) were used to electroplate items such as putting a layer of one metal (gold) onto the surface of another (silver), a method still practiced in Iraq today.
