Limestone (CaCO₃) is used to remove acidic pollutants from smokestack flue gases. It is heated to form lime (CaO), which reacts

with sulfur dioxide to form calcium sulfite. Assuming a 70.% yield in the overall reaction, what mass of limestone is required to remove all the sulfur dioxide formed by the combustion of 8.5X10⁴ kg of coal that is 0.33 mass % sulfur?

To completely eliminate all of the SO2 produced by coal burning, 1250.62 kg of CaCO3 are required.

Equation

CaCO₃ --->CaO + CO2

2 CaO +2 SO2 ----> 2 CaS + 3O2

overall reaction

2 CaCO₃ +2 SO2 ---> 2 CaS + 3O2 + 2CO2

m(S)=8,5 x 10^{4}*0.0033=280.5 kg

n(SO2)= m/Ar(S) = 8,75 x 10^{3}mol

n(CaCO3 needed) = n(SO2) / percent yield

n(CaCO3 needed) = 8.75 x 10^{3}mol / 0.7

​n(CaCO3 needed)= 1.25 x 10 ^4 mol

m(CaCO3 needed) = n x Mr = 1250.62kg

To completely eliminate all of the SO2 produced by coal burning, 1250.62 kg of CaCO3 are required.

<h3>Where Is Limestone Found?</h3>

Numerous locations that produce limestone have been recognized by geologists throughout the world. Between 30o N and 30o S latitude, the most of them are in shallow waters. The Caribbean Sea, Indian Ocean, Persian Gulf, and the Gulf of Mexico are the most well-known shallow water locations.

How many grams of LiCl are required to make 2.0 L of 0.65 M LiCl solution?
makkiz [27]

Answer:- 55 g of LiCl are required to make 2.0 L of 0.65 M solution.

Solution:- Given-

molarity of the solution = 0.65M

Volume of solution = 2.0 L

molarity of solution = \frac{moles of solute}{volume of solution in liter}

It could be arranged as...

moles of solute = molarity x volume of solution

moles of solute = 0.65 x 2.0 = 1.3 moles

Molar mass of LiCl is 42.39 g/mol.

So, mass of LiCl required = 1.3 mol x 42.39g/mol = 55 g

Is there an N−Cl bond in solid ammonium chloride?
Tems11 [23]
When ammonia is reacted with HCl it abstracts proton from acid and forms Ammonium Ion and Chloride Ion.

                              NH₃  +  HCl   →   ⁺NH₄  + Cl⁻ (simply Written NH₄Cl)
Structure,
              The structure of Ammonium Chloride is among those structures which contains all three types of bonding's, i.e.
                                  
                                                Ionic Bond

                                                Covalent Bond

                                                Coordinate Covalent Bond

Three Hydrogen atoms previously bonded with Nitrogen are covalent in nature. The new incoming proton from HCl forms co-ordinate covalent bond with Nitrogen and Chloride Ion containing negative charge make Ionic Bond with the positive Ammonium Ion. In question, if the line between Nitrogen and Chlorine atom is assumed covalent then it is incorrect. Structure is shown below,

How many hydrogen grams can be obtained if

Answer:

The mole is simply a very large number that is used by chemists as a unit of measurement.

Explanation:

The mole is simply a very large number,

, that has a special property. If I have  

6.022

hydrogen atoms, I have a mass of 1 gram of hydrogen atoms . If I have

molecules, I have a mass of 2 gram of hydrogen molecules. If I have

C

atoms, I have (approximately!) 12 grams.

The mole is thus the link between the micro world of atoms and molecules, and the macro world of grams and litres, the which we can easily measure by mass or volume. The masses for a mole of each element are given on the periodic table as the atomic weight. So, if have 12 g of  

C

, I know, fairly precisely, how many atoms of carbon I have. Given this quantity, I know how many molecules of  

O

are required to react with the  

C

, which I could measure by mass or by volume.

Can anyone give me the name of these? 40 points. Hope it's not too much
kolbaska11 [484]
1. 5 ethyl, 2 methyl octane
2. 1 ethyl, 2 methyl cyclopentane
3. 3,3,5,5- tetrafluoro heptane
4. 3,4-dimethyl hexene
5. 3,4-dimethyl cyclobutene
6. 3,5 diisopropyl cyclohexene
7. 3,3,4 trimethyl pentyne
8. 2,6 dibromo phenol

keep in mind that between 4-7, there could be #1 in front of the main name. for example with #4: 3,4-dimethyl-1- hexene. this honestly depends on the professor how he/she likes it. It is not necessary because if the number is not specified, it is assumed is #1
