One of relatively few reactions that takes place directly between two solids at room temperature is <img src="https://tex.z-dn.n
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

a) Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O(s) + <em>2 </em>NH₄SCN(s) → Ba(SCN)₂(s) +<em>10</em> H₂O(l) + <em>2</em> NH₃(g)

b) 3.14g must be added

Explanation:

a) For the reaction:

Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O(s) + NH₄SCN(s) → Ba(SCN)₂(s) + H₂O(l) + NH₃(g)

As you see, there are 8 moles of water in reactants and 2 moles of oxygen in octahydrate, thus, water moles must be 10:

Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O(s) + NH₄SCN(s) → Ba(SCN)₂(s) +<em>10</em> H₂O(l) + NH₃(g)

To balance hydrogens, the other coefficients are:

Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O(s) + <em>2 </em>NH₄SCN(s) → Ba(SCN)₂(s) +<em>10</em> H₂O(l) + <em>2</em> NH₃(g)

b) As you see in the balanced reaction, 1 mole of barium hydroxide octahydrate reacts with 2 moles of NH₄SCN. 6.5g of Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O are:

6.5 g × (1mol / 315.48g) =<em> 0.0206moles of  Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O</em>. Thus, moles of NH₄SCN that must be used for a complete reaction are:

0.0206moles of  Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O × ( 2 mol NH₄SCN / 1 mol Ba(OH)₂.8H₂O) = <em>0.0412moles of NH₄SCN</em>. In grams:

0.0412moles of NH₄SCN × ( 76.12g / 1mol) = <em>3.14g must be added</em>

Which of these is a metamorphic rock?<br> A basalt<br> B granite<br> C limestone<br> D slate
OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

B:GRANITE

Explanation:

<em>Granite is typical of a larger family of granitic rocks that are composed mostly of coarse-grained quartz and feldspars in varying proportions. These rocks are classified by the relative percentages of quartz, alkali feldspar, and plagioclase (the QAPF classification), with true granite representing granitic rocks rich in quartz and alkali feldspar. Most granitic rocks also contain mica or amphibole minerals, though a few (known as leucogranites) contain almost no dark minerals.</em>

These properties have made granite a widespread construction stone throughout human history.</em>
