Answer:

D.) NaOH

Explanation:

Sodium always forms the cation, Na⁺.

Hydroxide is always written as OH⁻.

The compound should have an overall charge of 0 (be neutral). As you can see, the charges perfectly balance out (+1 + (-1) = 0). Therefore, there only needs to be one atom of each ion. The ionic compound is thus NaOH.

How many grams of diphosphorus pentoxide result if 100.0 g of phosphorus are combined with sufficient oxygen?

gregori [183]

Answer is: 230 g.
Chemical reaction: P₄ + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅.
m(P₄) = 100 g.
M(P₄) = 4 · 31 g/mol = 124 g/mol.
n(P₄) = m(P₄) ÷ M(P₄) = 100g ÷ 124g/mol = 0,806 mol.
From reaction: n(P₄) : n(P₂O5) = 1 : 2.
n(P₂O₅) = 1,612 mol.
m(P₂O₅) = 1,612 mol · 142g/mol = 230g.
M - molar mass.
n - amount of substance.

Which of the following equations does not demonstrate the law of conservation of mass?

enot [183]

The third option does not obey the law of conservation of mass.

Option 3.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that the sum of the masses of reactants should be equal to the sum of the masses of the products.

For example, if we consider the first option to verify if it obeys law of conservation of mass or not, 2 Na + Cl₂ → 2 NaCl

So one way to verify it is to find the mass of Na, then multiply it with 2, and then add this with 2 times of mass of chlorine. So this sum should be equal to the 2 times mass of NaCl. But it is somewhat lengthy.

Another way to easily determine this is to check if the elements are present equally in both sides. Such as, in reactant side and product side 2 atoms of Na is present . Similarly, the Cl atoms are also present in equal number in both reactant and product side. Thus this obeyed the law of conservation of mass.

Like this, if we see the second option, there also 1 atom of Na is present in reactant and product side and 2 molecules of H is present in reactant and product side, 1 oxygen is present in reactant and product side and 1 Cl is present in reactant and product side. So it also obeys the law of conservation of mass.

But in the third option, P₄ + 5 O₂→ 2 P₄O₁₀, here, there is 4 atoms of P in reactant side but in product side there is (4*2) = 8 atoms of P. Similarly, the number of atoms of oxygen in reactants and product side is also not same. So the third option does not obey the law of conservation of mass.

The fourth option also obeys the law of conservation of mass as the number of atoms of each element is same in both the product and reactant side.

Thus, the third option does not obey the law of conservation of mass.

The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years. (a) A sample of radium-226 has a mass of 50 mg. Find a formula for the mass of the sa

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

m = m₀ $e^{-\lambda t$

m is mass after time t . original mass is m₀ , λ is disintegration constant

λ = .693 / half life

= .693 / 1590

= .0004358

m = m₀ $e^{- 0.0004358 t}$

b )

m = 50 x $e^{-.0004358\times 500}$

= 40.21 mg .

c )

40 = 50 $e^{-.0004358t$

.8 = $e^{-.0004358t$

$e^{.0004358t$ = 1.25

.0004358 t = .22314

t = 512 years .

Is the following a redox reaction? Explain.<br> NH₃(aq) + HCl(aq) → NH₄Cl(aq)

jeyben [28]

The process is not a redox reaction.

The reaction between ammonia $(NH_{3} )$ and hydrochloric acid (HCl) to produce ammonium chloride ( $NH_{4} Cl$ ) has modified the oxidation number of no atom in the reactants. As a base, ammonia interacts easily with hydrochloric acid to produce ammonium chloride salt. A neutralization reaction between an acid and a base is what the described process is, and it is NOT a redox reaction.

A reaction is referred to as a redox reaction if two or more reactants belonging to a single reaction exchange one or more electrons, i.e., one reactant releases one or more additional electrons while the other obtains one or additional electrons. The reacted substance that releases electrons is oxidized and becomes a reducing substance. A reduced oxidizing agent is the reactant that accepts electrons.
