Answer:

A 100-watt light bulb takes 100 seconds to use 10,000 J of electrical energy.

Explanation:

Power refers to the amount of work done (or energy consumed) per unit of time. It is usually measured in watts (W), which is equal to 1 Joules per second ( $\frac{J}{s}$ )

So, by definition, to calculate the power consumed or supplied in a time interval the following expression is used:

$P=\frac{W}{t}$

where P is the power measured in Watts, W is the work measured in Joules, and t is the time measured in seconds.

In this case:

P=100 Watt
W= 10,000 J
t= ?

Replacing:

$100 Watt=\frac{10,000 J}{t}$

Solving:

$t=\frac{10,000 J}{100 Watt}$

t=100 seconds

A 100-watt light bulb takes 100 seconds to use 10,000 J of electrical energy.

Zinc reacts with iron (iii) chloride yielding zinc chloride plus iron

olasank [31]

Answer:

I don't see a specific question, so I'll make a few comments and hope that answers the reason for the post.

Explanation:

Zinc(Zn) does react with iron chloride, since zinc is a more reactive metal than the iron.

When Zn is introduced to an iron (III) chloride solution, the Zn disoplaces the Fe atom in a displacement reaction.

The chemical equation of the reaction:

Zn + Fe(III)Cl3 → ZnCl3 + Fe

Energy is often realeased in this type of reaction, since the resulting chemical products have a lower energy that the reactants.

There are several metals more reactive than iron. One of the more interesting examples of a highly exothermic reaction with iron chloride (rust) is the reaction of aluminum with iron chloride. `This is highly exothermic and is labelled a thermite reaction. It provides a spectacular flame that is not enough to weld railroad tracks together.

Why do the elements in a group all behave similarly

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

See the explanation below, please.

Explanation:

The elements of the periodic table that belong to the same group (each column) have similar physical and chemical properties. This is because they have the same number of electrons in their last electronic layer.

Example of electronic configuration of elements of GROUP IA:

Hydrogen: 1s ^ 1

Lithium: 1s ^ 2 2s ^ 1

2NBr3 + 3NaOH = N2 +3NaBr + 3HOBr

bija089 [108]

The theoretical proportion is given by the balanced chemical equation:

2 mol NBr / 3 mol Na OH

Then x mol NaOH / 40 mol NBr3 = 3mol NaOH/2 mol NBr3

Solve for x, x = 40 * 3/2 = 60 mol NaOH.

Given that there are 48 mol NaOH (less than 60) this is the limitant reactant and the other is the excess reactant.

Answer: NBr3..

Draw the structure of the organic product(s) of the grignard reaction between phosgene (clcocl) and excess phenylmagnesium bromi

Jobisdone [24]

Phosgene on reacting with phenylmagnesium bromide generates benzoyl chloride.

Since, phenylmagnesium bromide is added in excess. It would further react with benzoyl chloride to form benzophenone.

Benzophenone on further reacting with phenylmagnesium bromide, and aqueous treatment, gives triphenylmethanol.

In the following reaction, what is the effect on the direction of the reaction if more SO3 is added to the reaction mixture?

Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

The equilibrium shifts to produce more reactants.

Explanation:

According to the Le- Chatelier principle,

At equilibrium state when stress is applied to the system, the system will behave in such a way to nullify the stress.

The equilibrium can be disturb,

By changing the concentration

By changing the volume

By changing the pressure

By changing the temperature

Consider the following chemical reaction.

Chemical reaction:

2SO₂ + O₂ ⇄ 2SO₃

In this reaction the equilibrium is disturb by increasing the concentration of Product.

When the concentration of product is increased the system will proceed in backward direction in order to regain the equilibrium. Because when product concentration is high it means reaction is not on equilibrium state. As the concentration of SO₃ increased the reaction proceed in backward direction to regain the equilibrium state and more reactant is formed.
