Answer:

c. 80 g

Explanation:

metal alloy:

  • wt% = (mass compound/mass alloy)×100

for antimony:

⇒ 16% = (g antimony / g alloy)×100

⇒ 0.16 = g antimony / g alloy

∴ g alloy = 500 g

⇒ (0.16)×(500 g) = g antimony

⇒ g antimony = 80 g

What reaction might we use to synthesize nickel sulfate, NiSO4?
guapka [62]

As I understand from your question, we should synthesize nickel sulfate first from nickel (II) oxide and sulfuric acid and second from nickel carbonate and sulfuric acid.

The chemical reactions will look like this:

NiO (s) + H₂SO₄ (aq) → NiSO₄ (aq) + H₂O (l)

NiCO₃ (aq)* + H₂SO₄ → NiSO₄ (aq) + H₂CO₃ (aq)

but carbonic acid will decompose to carbon dioxide and water

H₂CO₃ (aq) → CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)

(*) NiCO₃ has a poor solubility in water, but enough to start the reaction.

Why does the water seem cooler in the day and warmer at night?
Otrada [13]

Answer:

Not much heat moves into the lower levels of the ground. The heat that the ocean absorbs is mixed with the lower water quickly. ... At night, while the land cools off quickly, the water at the surface is kept warmer because the water is mixed around with the warmer water underneath.

Burning magnesium gives us magnesium oxide. This is an example of a reaction.
frez [133]

Answer: -

Oxidation, Oxygen

Explanation: -

Burning of magnesium gives us magnesium oxide.

The chemical symbol of magnesium is Mg.

The chemical symbol of magnesium oxide is MgO.

So, the balanced chemical equation is

2Mg + O2 – 2 MgO.

We see that the element added is O Oxygen. So, the reaction is oxidation.

In oxidation always, oxygen is the common element involved in all chemical reactions of this kind.

How many liters in .75 moles of methane gas at stp?
marin [14]
<span>At STP 1 mol of an ideal gas has a volume of 22.4 L. We assume (from the question) that the methane has an ideal behavior. Hence if 1 mole of an ideal gas ccupies a volume of 22.4 L Then 0.75 mole occupies X Hence X * 1 = 0.75 * 22.4 X = 16.8L</span>

Calcium carbide reacts with water to produce acetylene gas according to the following equation: CaC2(s) + 2H2O(l)C2H2(g) + Ca(OH
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer: The number of moles of CaC_2 reacted was 0.229

Explanation:

According to ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = pressure of gas = Total pressure - vapor pressure of water = (749 - 23.8) mm Hg= 725.2 mm Hg = 0.954 atm    (760mmHg= 1atm)

V = Volume of gas = 5.87 L

n = number of moles = ?

R = gas constant =0.0821Latm/Kmol

T =temperature =25^0C=(25+273)K=298K

n=\frac{PV}{RT}

n=\frac{0.954atm\times 5.87L}{0.0821 L atm/K mol\times 298K}=0.229moles

CaC_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow C_2H_2(g)+Ca(OH)_2(aq)

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of C_2H_2 is produced by = 1 mole of CaC_2

Thus 0.229 moles of C_2H_2 is produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.229=0.229 moles of CaC_2

Thus number of moles of CaC_2 reacted was 0.229
