<h2>Answer:</h2>0.1899grams

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

The balanced chemical reaction between hydrochloric acid and potassium sulfide is as shown:

K_2S+2HCl\to H_2S+2KCl

Based on stoichiometry, we can see that 1 mole of potassium sulfide reacted to form 1 mole of hydrogen sulfide.

Get the mole of hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) using the ideal gas equation expressed as:

\begin{gathered} PV=\text{nRT} \\ n=\frac{PV}{RT} \end{gathered}

P is the pressure of the gas (in atm) = 0.994737atm (756torr)

V is the volume of the gas = 42.5mL = 0.0425L

T is the temperature (in Kelvin) = 26 + 273 = 299K

R is the gas constant = 0.0821 L*atm/mole * K

Substitute these values into the formula as shown:

\begin{gathered} n=\frac{0.994737\cancel{\text{atm}}\times0.0425\cancel{L}}{0.0821\frac{\cancel{L}\cdot\cancel{\text{atm}}}{\text{mole}\cdot\cancel{K}}\times299\cancel{K}} \\ n=\frac{0.994737\times0.0425}{0.0821\times299} \\ n=\frac{0.0422763225}{24.5479} \\ n=0.00172\text{moles} \end{gathered}

Since the number of moles of hydrogen sulfide is 0.00172moles, the number of moles of potassium sulfide will also be 0.00172 moles (based on stoichiometry)

Get the mass of potassium sulfide that reacted using the formula:

\text{Mass}=number\text{ of moles}\times molar\text{ mass}

Number of moles of K2S = 0.00172 moles

Molar mass of K2S = 110.262 g/mol

Substitute into the formula for calculating the mass;

\begin{gathered} \text{Mass}=0.00172\cancel{\text{moles}}\times\frac{110.262g}{\cancel{\text{mole}}} \\ \text{Mass}=0.1899\text{grams} \end{gathered}

Therefore the mass of potassium sulfide that reacted (in grams) is approximately 0.1899grams

The first-order reaction, so2cl2 → so2 + cl2, has a rate constant equal to 2.20 × 10-5 s-1 at 593 k. what percentage of the init
Svetradugi [14.3K]
For the 1st order reactions,rate constant (k) is mathematically expressed as

k = \frac{2.303}{t}log \frac{Co}{Ct}
where, t = time
Co = initial conc. of reactant
Ct = conc. of reactant after time 't'

Given: k = <span>2.20 × 10^-5 s-1, t = 2 hours = 7200 s

Therefore, we have
</span>2.20 × 10^-5 = \frac{2.303}{7200}log \frac{100}{Ct}
∴ log\frac{100}{Ct} = 0.06877
∴, \frac{100}{Ct} = 1.1716
∴, Ct = 85.35%

Thus, <span>85.35 % of the initial amount of SO2Cl2 will remain after 2.00 hours.</span>

The atoms and molecules in a gas are in constant motion. Temperature is a measure of this motion. How are these related? As temp
Sedaia [141]

Here we have to choose the correct statement on the effect of temperature on the motion of the molecules and atoms of a gas.

As the temperature increases the molecules and atoms move faster.

As per the kinetic theory of gas molecules and atoms the kinetic energy (K.E.) of the atom or molecules is related to temperature by the equation

K.E. = \frac{3}{2}kT ( k = Boltzmann constant, T = temperature.

Thus as the temperature increases the K.E. increases thus the atom or molecules move faster.

With the decrease of temperature the movement of the atoms or molecules will be less and they will be near to each other.

The increment of temperature increase the K.E. thus the atoms or molecules move apart from each other.

With the decrease of temperature the movement of the atoms or molecules decreases.

Write a balanced equation for the complete oxidation reaction that occurs when glucose (C6H12O6) reacts with oxygen. Use the sma
Stels [109]

Answer:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

Explanation:

Glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) react with oxygen (O₂) to produce carbon dioxide (CO₂) and water (H₂O).

The equation can be written as follow:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> CO₂ + H₂O

There are 6 atoms of C on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of CO₂ as shown below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> 6CO₂ + H₂O

There are 12 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 6 in front of H₂O as shown below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

There are a total of 8 atoms of O on the left side and a total of 18 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by 6 in front of O₂ as shown below:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ —> 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

Now, the equation is balanced.
