If you were to cut the radium in half and have only 90 g, it will take up 18 cm³.

<h3>What is density?</h3>

The density of an object is the ratio of mass to volume of object.

Density = mass/volume

volume = mass/density

at a constant density, the volume of an object is proportional to its mass.

From the question, you have 180 g of radium that takes up 36 cm ^ 3 of space if you were to cut it in half and have only 90 g, the new mass will take the following volume.

180 g = 36 cm³

90 g = ?

= (90 x 36) / 180

= 18 cm³

Thus, if you were to cut the radium in half and have only 90 g, it will take up 18 cm³.

The pressure of a sample of ch4 gas (6.022 g) in a 30.0 l vessel at 402 k is __________ atm

mel-nik [20]

From ideal gas equation, that is PV =nRT
P=nRT/V
n is the number of moles
the molar mass of CH4 =12+4=16
R is the gas contant (0.0821 atm/mol/k)
n= 6.022/16=0.376 moles
P={(0.376 moles x 0.0821 atm/mol/k x 402k) /30.0L} =0.414 atm

Yeah, I think you just need to get permission from the school itself. I have seen people do it before at my old school. I would ask your friend and see if they could talk to someone about it.

Last Question what bond type is SO2.( ionic, polar covalent, nonpolar covalent, diatomic) **its the one right above the BELONGS

qwelly [4]

SO2 is a polar molecule because Oxygen gains more electrons making one side more negative than the other.

Decane (C10H22) is used in diesel. The combustion for decane follows the equation: 2 C10H22 + 31 O2 à 20 CO2 + 22 H2O. Calculate

creativ13 [48]

The mass of water produced is 792 grams by the combustion of 568 grams of decane.

Given:

Combustion of 568 grams of decane with 2979 grams of oxygen.

$2 C_{10}H_{22 }+ 31 O_2 \rightarrow 20 CO_2 + 22 H_2O$

To find:

The mass of water produced by combustion of 568 grams of decane.

Solution:

Mass of decane = 568 g

Moles of decane :

= $\frac{568 g}{142 g/mol}=4 mol$

Mass of oxygen gas = 2976 g

Moles of oxygen gas:

= $\frac{2976 g}{32 g/mol}=93 mol$

$2 C_{10}H_{22 }+ 31 O_2 \rightarrow 20 CO_2 + 22 H_2O$

According to reaction, 2 moles of decane reacts with 31 moles of oxygen, then 4 moles of decane will react with:

$=\frac{31}{2}\times 4mol=62\text{ mol of}O_2$

But according to the question, we have 93.0 moles of oxygen gas which is more than 62 moles of oxygen gas.

So, this means that oxygen gas is present in an excessive amount. Which simply means:

Oxygen gas is an excessive reagent.
Decane is a limiting reagent.
Decane being limiting reagent will be responsible for the amount of water produced after the reaction.

According to reaction, 22 moles of water is produced from 2 moles of decane, then 4 moles of decane will produce:

$=\frac{22}{2}\times 4mol=44\text{mol of }H_2O$

Mass of 44 moles of water ;

$=44mol\times 18g/mol=792g$

792 grams of water is produced by the combustion of 568 grams of decane.
