Chemistry
1 answer:
lora16 [44]2 years ago
5 0

The equation that is a decomposition reaction is

PbCO3(s) ---> PbO(s) + CO2(g)

That is option D.

<h3>Properties of a decomposition reaction</h3>

A chemical reaction is defined as the combination of substances called reactants to form a product. The various types of chemical reaction include:

  • synthesis reaction

  • combustion reaction

  • decomposition reaction

  • single or double replacement reaction

Decomposition reaction is that type of chemical reaction in which the reactant breaks down to form two or more products.

Therefore the heating of lead (II) carbonate is a decomposition reaction.

Which statements are true about reversible reactions?
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Reversible reactions exhibit the same reaction rate for forward and reverse reactions at equilibrium.

Reversible reactions exhibit constant concentrations of reactants and products at equilibrium

Explanation:

A reversible reaction is a reaction that can proceed in both forward and backward direction.

Equilibrium is attained in a chemical system when there is no observable change in the properties of the system.

At equilibrium, a reversible reaction is occurring in at same rate. That is, the forward and backward reaction is occurring at the same rate. As the rate of the forward and backward reaction remains the same, the concentrations of the reactants and products will also be the same in order for the equilibrium to be maintained.

The following question appears on a quiz: ""You fill a tank with gas at 60°C to 100 kPa and seal it. You decrease the temperatu
dusya [7]

Answer: The final pressure will decrease ad the value is 85 kPa

Explanation:

To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.

Mathematically,

\frac{P_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1\text{ and }T_1 are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.

P_2\text{ and }T_2 are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.

We are given:

P_1=100kPa\\T_1=60^0C=(60+273)K=333K\\P_2=?\\T_2=10^0C=(10+273)K=283K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\frac{100kPa}{333K}=\frac{P_2}{283K}\\\\P_2=85kPa

Hence, the final pressure will decrease ad the value is 85 kPa

Purple Group Header Warm-Up Why can I smell a chocolate bar even though it is a solid? Read the description of the office myster
likoan [24]

Answer:

The smell of a chocolate is from the presence of volatile compounds present in the chocolate bar which at room temperature readily changes phase from solid to liquid to vapor or gas

Explanation:

There are nearly 600 identified compounds present in a chocolate bar and out of these, there are volatile components which gives the chocolate bar its distinctive aroma.

These volatile chocolate contents readily change phase from solid to vapor, with very short duration liquid phase.

For example, 3 methylbutanal, vanillin, and several organic compounds which are known to be readily volatile.

Can sedimentation and decantation be used for all types of mixtures? Explain
Bumek [7]

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.
