If 28.4 g of HgO decomposes and produces 2.0 g of oxygen, then 26 grams of Hg is produced.

<h3>What is decomposition reaction?</h3>

Decomposition reactions occur when complex chemical entities split apart into smaller components. Decomposition reactions often demand energy input.

There are three different kinds of breakdown reactions: thermal, photolytic, and electrolytic.

$Mass_{reactant$ = $Mass_{product}$

$Mass_{mercury oxide$ = $Mass_{mercury} + mass_{oxygen}$

28g = $mass_{mercury}$ + 2g

$mass_{mercury}$ = 26g

Thus, 28.4 g of HgO decomposes and produces 2.0 g of oxygen, then 26 grams of Hg is produced.

$percentage mass_{mercury} = \frac{mass_{mercury}}{mass_{mercury}oxide}$ X 100%

= 26g/28g

= 93%

thus 93% is the percent by mass of Hg present in HgO.

Answer:

$\large \boxed{4.6 \times 10^{21}\text{ s}}$

Explanation:

Whenever a question asks you, "What is the concentration after a given time?" or something like that, you must use the appropriate integrated rate law expression.

The reaction is 2nd order, because the units of k are L·mol⁻¹s⁻¹.

The integrated rate law for a second-order reaction is

$\dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}} =\dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}_{0}}+ kt$

Data:

k = 2.4 × 10⁻²¹ L·mol⁻¹s⁻¹

[A]₀ = 0.0100 mol·L⁻¹

[A] = 0.009 00 mol·L⁻¹

Calculation :

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}} & = & \dfrac{1}{\text{[A]}_{0}}+ kt\\\\\dfrac{1}{0.00900 }& = & \dfrac{1}{0.0100} + 2.4 \times 10^{-21} \, t\\\\111.1&=& 100.0 + 2.4 \times 10^{-21} \, t\\\\11.1& = & 2.4 \times 10^{-21} \, t\\t & = & \dfrac{11.1}{ 2.4 \times 10^{-21}}\\\\& = & \mathbf{4.6 \times 10^{21}}\textbf{ s}\\\end{array}\\\text{It will take $\large \boxed{\mathbf{4.6 \times 10^{21}}\textbf{ s}}$ for the HI to decompose}$

Is usually categorized to a specific area in the state known as a soil series

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

Soil series as established by the National Cooperative Soil Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service are a level of classification in the USDA Soil Taxonomy classification system hierarchy. The actual object of classification is the so-called soil individual, or pedon.[1] Soil series consist of pedons that are grouped together because of their similar pedogenesis, soil chemistry, and physical properties. More specifically, each series consists of pedons having soil horizons that are similar in soil color, soil texture, soil structure, soil pH, consistence, mineral and chemical composition, and arrangement in the soil profile.[2] These result in soils which perform similarly for land use purposes.
