A 20.00 g mixture of magnesium and zinc metal reacting with excess hydrochloric acid produced 1.152 g of hydrogen gas. what is t

percentage of zinc= 5.985/20 X 100= 29.5%

let x represents zinc and y be magnesium so

Zinc(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> ZnCl2(aq) +  H2(g)

Mg(s) + 2HCl(aq) -----> MgCl2(aq) + H2(g)

1.152 g of hydrogen gas=( x/65.3 + y/24.305) 20

= 3.08 x10^-2 + 0.8295-8.30

=x=5.985

y= 4.015

percentage of zinc= 5.985/20 X 100= 29.5%

The hydrogen gas escapes, so the two products of Zinc Chloride and Magnesium Chloride will then react with Silver Nitrate. Again, I combine both of the reactions

The enthalpy of fusion for Hg is 2.29 kJ/mol. What is the energy change when 78.0 g of Hg melts at −38.8°C?
Veronika [31]

The enthalpy of fusion for Hg is 2.29 kJ/mol. 0.89 kJ is the energy change when 78.0 g of Hg melts at −38.8°C.

<h3>What is Enthalpy of Fusion ?</h3>

The amount of energy needed to change 1 mole of substance under state change at constant temperature and pressure is called enthalpy of fusion. It is also known as Latent heat of fusion. Unit of enthalpy of fusion is kJ/mol.

<h3>How to find the change in energy ? </h3>

To find the change in energy use this expression:

q = n ΔH

where

q = Energy change

n = number of moles

ΔH = Molar enthalpy

Number of moles (n) = \frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

                                  = \frac{78.0\ g}{200\ \text{g/mol}}

                                  = 0.39 mol

Now put the values in above formula we get

q = n ΔH

  = 0.39 mol × 2.29 kJ/mol

  = 0.89 kJ

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The enthalpy of fusion for Hg is 2.29 kJ/mol. 0.89 kJ is the energy change when 78.0 g of Hg melts at −38.8°C.

Which of the following soils is the most porous? Soil A - flat, sorted particles. Soil B - round, sorted particles Soil C - roun
Ksju [112]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Porosity means the ease with which a fluid can pass through between a rock or cracks etc.

If particles of a soil are flat and even if they are sorted then there will rarely be any space available for fluid or water to pass through it.

If soil particles are round in shape and are sorted then there will be space available for the fluid to pass through it. Hence, this type of soil will be most porous.

Similarly, if soil particles are round but are unsorted then there will be less space available as compared to sorted particles. This is because particles are placed randomly so, somewhere there will be much less space and somewhere there will be large space available. As a result, soil will not be most porous.

If soil particles are flat and unsorted then there will also be less space available for the fluid to pass through it. Thus, soil will be less porous.

Hence, we can conclude that out of the given options, soil B - round, sorted particles is the most porous.
