In order to determine if compounds X and Y are the same, the mole percentages of the elements present should be equal in both compounds.

For compound X

number of moles H = 15/ 1 =15 mol H
number of moles O = 120/ 16 = 7.5 mol O

total moles = 22.5 mol

mole percentages
% mole H = 67%
% mole O = 33%

For compound Y 

mole of H = 2 /1 = 2
mole of O = 32/16 = 2

total mole = 4 mole

mol %

% mol H = 50%
% mol O = 50%

there the two compounds are not the same.

Ann [662]

Answer:

NiCO3 (s) + 2H+ (aq) → H2O (l) + CO2 (g) + Ni2+ (aq)

Explanation:

To write the complete ionic equation:

1. Start with a balanced molecular equation.

2. Break all soluble strong electrolytes (compounds with (aq) beside them) into their ions

3. indicate the correct formula and charge of each ion

4. indicate the correct number of each ion

5. write (aq) after each ion

6. Bring down all compounds with (s), (l), or (g) unchanged.

Butane C4H10 (g),(Hf = –125.7), combusts in the presence of oxygen to form CO2 (g) (Delta.Hf = –393.5 kJ/mol), and H2O(g) (Delta
shusha [124]

Answer: The enthalpy of combustion, per mole, of butane is -2657.4 kJ

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2C_4H_{10}(g)+13O_2(g)\rightarrow 8CO_2(g)+10H_2O(g)

The expression for enthalpy change is,

\Delta H=[n\times H_f_{products}]-[n\times H_f_{reactants}]

Putting the values we get :

\Delta H=[8\times H_f_{CO_2}+10\times H_f_{H_2O}]-[2\times H_f_{C_4H_{10}+13\times H_f_{O_2}}]

\Delta H=[(8\times -393.5)+(10\times -241.82)]-[(2\times -125.7)+(13\times 0)]

\Delta H=-5314.8kJ

2 moles of butane releases heat = 5314.8 kJ

1 mole of butane release heat = \frac{5314.8}{2}\times 1=2657.4kJ

Thus enthalpy of combustion per mole of butane is -2657.4 kJ

Explain why the product at the negative electrode is not always a metal.
Elena-2011 [213]

Answer:

Whether you get the metal or hydrogen during electrolysis depends on the position of the metal in the reactivity series: the metal will be produced if it is less reactive than hydrogen. hydrogen will be produced if the metal is more reactive than hydrogen.
