Answer:
16.02 g
Explanation:
the balanced equation for the decomposition of CuCO₃ is as follows
CuCO₃ --> CuO + CO₂
molar ratio of CuCO₃ to CO₂ is 1:1
number of CuCO₃ moles decomposed - 45 g / 123.5 g/mol = 0.364 mol
according to the molar ratio
1 mol of CuCO₃ decomposes to form 1 mol of CO₂
therefore 0.364 mol of CuCO₃ decomposes to form 0.364 mol of CO₂
number of CO₂ moles produced - 0.364 mol
therefore mass of CO₂ produced - 0.364 mol x 44 g/mol = 16.02 g
16.02 g of CO₂ produced
An atom is the smallest you can get to identify the element.
The question is missing the graphics required to answer which I have attached as an image.
There are four different representations of the orientation of water molecules around chloride anion. Let's first analyze the water molecule.
We have H-O-H as the structure of water. The oxygen atom is more electronegative than the hydrogen atoms, which results in a partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom.
The chloride anion is a negative charge. Therefore, the water molecules should orient themselves with the hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine atom as the partial positive charge on the hydrogen atoms will be attracted to the negative charge of the chlorine atom.
The correct representation is shown in graph 3 which shows all hydrogen atoms facing the chlorine anion.
