Why is it better to give the actual speed of an object rather than to simply say it moved fast or it moved slowly

1 answer:

3 0

Specificity. It’s really loose to say that something is fast, since speed can be scalarly linked and relative. I could say that both a car on the highway is fast, but so is the speed of light. The actual speed of something helps to do away with the arbitrary nature of using “fast” and “slow”; however, we’re still at step one of the person who is receiving the information is unfamiliar with the scale that the actual speed is defined in.

In a chemical reaction, 28g of iron reacts with 16g of sulfur to produce _________ of iron sulfide.

kirill115 [55]

Hello!

In a chemical reaction, 28g of iron reacts with 16g of sulfur to produce _________ of iron sulfide.

We have the following data:

m(Fe) - mass of iron = 28 g

m(S) - mass of sufur = 16 g

MM(Fe) - molar mass of iron ≈ 56 g/mol

MM(S) - molar mass of sulfur ≈ 32 g/mol

n(Fe) - number of mol of iron = ?

n(S) - number of mol of sulfur = ?

Solving:

* to n(Fe)

$n_{Fe} = \dfrac{m_{Fe}}{MM_{Fe}}$

$n_{Fe} = \dfrac{28\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g}{56\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g/mol}$

$\boxed{n_{Fe} = 0.5\:mol}$

* to n(S)

$n_{S} = \dfrac{m_{S}}{MM_{S}}$

$n_{S} = \dfrac{16\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g}{32\:\diagup\!\!\!\!\!g/mol}$

$\boxed{n_{S} = 0.5\:mol}$

The stoichiometric reaction will be in the same proportion (1 : 1), let us see:

$Fe + S \Longrightarrow FeS$

1 mol of Fe -------------- 1 mol of FeS

0.5 mol of Fe ------------ 0.5 mol of FeS

Will the reaction of the iron mass with the mass of sulfur produce how many grams of iron sulfide? We will see:

n(FeS) - number of mol of iron sulfide = 0.5 mol

m(FeS) - mass of iron sulfide = ? (in grams)

MM(FeS) - Molar Mass of iron sulfide = 56 + 32 = 88 g/mol

Solving:

$n_{FeS} = \dfrac{m_{FeS}}{MM_{FeS}}$

$m_{FeS} = n_{FeS}*MM_{FeS}$

$m_{FeS} = 0.5\:mol\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\dfrac{\hspace{0.6cm}}{~}*88\:\dfrac{g}{mol\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\dfrac{\hspace{0.6cm}}{~}}$

$\boxed{\boxed{m_{FeS} = 44\:g}}\:\:\:\:\:\:\bf\blue{\checkmark}\bf\green{\checkmark}\bf\red{\checkmark}$

Answer:

44 grams of iron sulfide

At the equivalence point of a titration of the [H+] concentration is equal to:

icang [17]

B. At the equivalence point of a titration of the [H+] concentration is equal to 7.

<h3>What is equivalence point of a titration?</h3>

The equivalence point of a titration is a point in titration at which the amount of titrant added is just enough to completely neutralize the analyte solution.

At the equivalence point in an acid-base titration, moles of base equals moles of acid and the solution only contains salt and water.

At the equivalence point, equal amounts of H+ and OH- ions combines as shown below;

H⁺ + OH⁻ → H₂O

The pH of resulting solution is 7.0 (neutral).

Thus, the pH at the equivalence point for this titration will always be 7.0.

Classify these substances? More than one answer may apply in each case.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

N2 element, pure substance

O2 element, pure substance

N2O Compound, pure substance

Air (mostly N2 and O2 ) homogeneous mixture

Explanation:

N2, Nitrogen is known as the chemical element that is characterized by having atomic number 7 and that is symbolized by the letter N, in its molecular version, it is recognized as N2.

O2, Oxygen is the chemical element of atomic number 8, this molecular form is composed of two atoms of this element.

A chemical element is a type of matter, consisting of atoms of the same class.

N2O, Nitrous oxide is formed by the union of two molecules of nitrogen and one of oxygen, which is considered a chemical compound since it is a substance formed by the chemical combination of two different elements of the periodic table.

A pure substance is one that cannot change state or divide into other substances, except for a chemical reaction.

Air (mostly N2 and O2 ), it is a homogeneous mixture of gases that constitutes the earth's atmosphere. A homogeneous mixture is a type of mixture in which its components are not distinguished and in which the composition is uniform and each part of the solution has the same properties.
