Mercury(II) oxide (HgO) decomposes to form mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2). The balanced chemical equation is shown below. 2HgO Rig

BigorU [14]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, the correct answer is the third option: 15.63 moles of HgO are needed to produce 250 g of O₂.

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

2 HgO → 2 Hg + O₂

By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:

HgO: 2 moles
Hg: 2 moles
O₂: 1 moles

The molar mass of the compounds is:

HgO: 216.59 g/mole
Hg: 200.59 g/mole
O₂: 32 g/mole

Then, by reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:

HgO: 2 moles× 216.59 g/mole= 433.18 grams
Hg: 2 moles× 200.59 g/mole= 401.18 grams
O₂: 1 mole× 32 g/mole= 32 grams

Then the following rule of three can be applied: if by reaction stoichiometry 32 grams of O₂ are produced by 2 moles of HgO, 250 grams of O₂ are produced from how many moles of HgO?

$moles of HgO=\frac{250 grams of O_{2} x2 moles of HgO}{32grams of O_{2}}$

<u><em>moles of HgO= 15.625 moles≅ 15.63 moles</em></u>

Finally, the correct answer is the third option: 15.63 moles of HgO are needed to produce 250 g of O₂.

A 4.000 g sample of an unknown metal, M, was completely burned in excess O2 to yield 0.02225 mol of the metal oxide, M2O3. What

Solnce55 [7]

4X + 3O₂ = 2X₂O₃

n(X₂O₃)=0.02225 mol
m(X)=4.000 g
x - the molar mass of metal

m(X)/4x=n(X₂O₃)/2

x=m(X)/{2n(X₂O₃)}

x=4.000/{2*0.02225)=89.89 g/mol

What is the gasoline doing to our environment?

luda_lava [24]

Gasoline use contributes to air pollution
Gasoline is a toxic and highly flammable liquid. The vapors given off when gasoline evaporates and the substances produced when gasoline is burned (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and unburned hydrocarbons) contribute to air pollution. Burning gasoline also produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.

To what pressure must a gas be compressed in order to get into a 3.00 cubic foot

Troyanec [42]

Answer:

133.3atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume = 400ft³

Final volume = 3ft³

Initial pressure = 1atm

Unknown:

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

Mathematically;

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P and V are pressure and volume

1 and 2 are initial and final states;

Insert parameters and solve;

1 x 400 = P₂ x 3

P₂ = 133.3atm
