Why is zinc not extracted from ZnO through reduction using CO?​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Jet001 [13]1 year ago
6 0
The standard Gibbs free energy of formation of ZnO from Zn is lower than that of CO2 from CO. Therefore, CO cannot reduce ZnO to Zn. Hence, Zn is not extracted from ZnO through reduction using CO

Describe the location of the negative charges of the atom in j.j thompsons plum pudding model
iren2701 [21]

The location of the negative charges is evenly distributed throughout the entire atom.

J. J. Tomson concluded that atoms are divisible and that the corpuscles are their building blocks.

Atoms are made up of smaller particles.

J. J. Thomson discovered the electron ( the negative charges of the atom) in 1897.

His "plum pudding" model (1904) suggested: the electrons are embedded in the positive charge and evenly distributed throughout the entire atom.

With this model, he abandoned his earlier hypothesis that the atom was composed of immaterial vortices.

Later, Rutherford demonstrate that J.J Thompson's Plum Pudding model was not accurate.

If 4000 g of Fe2O3 reacts, how many moles of CO are needed?<br> (add work)
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

75.15 mol.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to write the balanced equation of the reaction:

<em>Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂.</em>

It is clear that 1.0 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3.0 moles of CO to produce 2.0 moles of Fe and 3.0 moles of CO₂.

∴ Fe₂O₃ reacts with CO with (1: 3) molar ratio.

  • we need to calculate the no. of moles of (4000 g) of Fe₂O₃:

<em>no. of moles of Fe₂O₃ = mass/molar mass</em> = (4000 g)/(159.69 g/mol) = <em>25.05 mol.</em>

<u>Using cross multiplication:</u>

1.0 mole of Fe₂O₃ needs → 3.0 moles of CO,

∴ 25.05 mole of Fe₂O₃ needs → ??? moles of CO.

<em>∴ The no. of moles of CO needed</em> = (3.0 mol)(25.05 mol)/(1.0 mol) =<em> 75.15 mol.</em>

please help me with Chem I ONLY HAVE 5 MINUTES if methane gas (CH4) flows at a rate of 0.25L/s, how many grams of methane gas wi
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

643g of methane will there be in the room

Explanation:

To solve this question we must, as first, find the volume of methane after 1h = 3600s. With the volume we can find the moles of methane using PV = nRT -<em>Assuming STP-</em>. With the moles and the molar mass of methane (16g/mol) we can find the mass of methane gas after 1 hour as follows:

<em>Volume Methane:</em>

3600s * (0.25L / s) = 900L Methane

<em>Moles methane:</em>

PV = nRT; PV / RT = n

<em>Where P = 1atm at STP, V is volume = 900L; R is gas constant = 0.082atmL/molK; T is absolute temperature = 273.15K at sTP</em>

Replacing:

PV / RT = n

1atm*900L / 0.082atmL/molK*273.15 = n

n = 40.18mol methane

<em>Mass methane:</em>

40.18 moles * (16g/mol) =

What is the chemical formula for the compound magnesium perchlorate? Use the list of polyatomic ions and the periodic table to h
8_murik_8 [283]

The chemical formula for the compound magnesium perchlorate is Mg(ClO₄)₂

Magnesium perchlorate or Mg(ClO₄)₂ is an ionic compound.

Perchlorate here is an anion which is represented by ClO₄⁻. Perchlorate is a polyatiomic anion, where one Cl atom is bonded to four O atoms.

The magnesium cation is represented by Mg²⁺

So one Mg²⁺ cation combines with two ClO₄⁻ anion to form one molecule of Mg(ClO₄)₂
