A 17g sample of H2O2 was decomposed to yield 1g of H2 and 16g of O2 An unknown sample containing only H and O was decomposed to
ludmilkaskok [199]

Answer:

Explanation:

Our H_2O_2 sample yielded 1g of H_2 and 16g of O_2, but our unknown sample yielded 2 times as much H_2  for the same amount of O_2.

What does this mean? that the H:O proportion for the unknown sample is twice the H:O proportion for the H_2O_2 sample.

What is the  H:O proportion for the H_2O_2 sample? As we can see from its formula, it's 1:1, therefore the proportion for the unknown formula must be 2:1.

That means, two H atoms for every O atom. We could write that as: H_2O and you should recognize that formula, for it is one of the most common compounds on earth, Water.

When the reaction shown is correctly balanced, the coefficients are: kclo3 → kcl + o2?
notka56 [123]
From the balanced equation 2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2, the coefficients are the following:
coefficient 2 in front of potassium chlorate KClO3
coefficient 2 in front of potassium chloride KCl 
coefficient 3 in front of oxygen molecule O2

We got this balanced equation by identifying the number of atoms of each element that we have in the given equation KClO3 → KCl + O2.
Looking at the subscripts of each atom on the reactant side and on the product side, we have
     KClO3 → KCl + O2
       K=1          K=1
       Cl=1         Cl=1
       O=3          O=2

We can see that the oxygens are not balanced. We add a coefficient 2 to the 3 oxygen atoms on the left side and another coefficient 3 to the 2 oxygen 
atoms on the right side to balance the oxygens:
     2KClO3 → KCl + 3O2
The coefficient 2 in front of potassium chlorate KClO3 multiplied by the subscript 3 of the oxygen atoms on the left side indicates 6 oxygen atoms just as the coefficient 3 multiplied by the subscript 2 on the right side indicates 6 oxygen atoms.

The number of potassium K atoms and chloride Cl atoms have changed as well:
     2KClO3 → KCl + 3O2
       K=2            K=1
       Cl=2          Cl=1
       O=6           O=6

We now have two potassium K atoms and two chloride Cl atoms on the reactant side, so we add a coefficient 2 to the potassium chloride KCl on the product side: 
     2KClO3 → 2KCl + 3O2, which is our final balanced equation.
        K=2           K=2
        Cl=2          Cl=2
        O=6           O=6
The potassium, chlorine, and oxygen atoms are now balanced.

What did Rutherford's gold foil experiment tell about the atom?​
VLD [36.1K]

The alpha particles that were fired at the gold foil were positively charged. ... These experiments led Rutherford to describe the atom as containing mostly empty space, with a very small, dense, positively charged nucleus at the center, which contained most of the mass of the atom, with the electrons orbiting the nucleus.

As part of a science experiment, Jose did a test for starch on a slice of apple and a slice of potato. The yellow-orange iodine
juin [17]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

Iodine solution is used to test for starch.  A positive test for starch gives a blue-black color.

The fact that the color of the apple remained the same is indicative of the fact that starch was not contained in the apple.

A change in the color of potato indicates the presence of starch in the potato.

The fact that iodine did not react with apple should not be taken to mean that apples contain no starch at all. Starch changes gradually to sugar as fruits ripen. This is why the apple gave a negative test for starch.
