Answer:

The oxygen atom holds the electrons in a covalent bond more closely than the hydrogen atoms and develops a partial negative charge.

Explanation:

Water molecule is composed two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom.Both the hydrogen atom interact with the single oxygen by the formation of covalent bond.

  Although the covalent bond is formed but the bonding electrons are not shared equally by both the atom.As oxygen is more electronegative than that of hydrogen atom,oxygen attract the bonding electron pair towards itself.

  As a result the hydrogen atom get partial positive charge and oxygen atom gains partial negative charge.

How many grams of iron can be made with 21.5g of Fe2O3
SIZIF [17.4K]

The mass (in grams) of iron, Fe that can be made from 21.5 g of Fe₂O₃ is 15.04 g

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2Fe₂O₃ -> 4Fe + 3O₂

  • Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = 159.7 g/mol
  • Mass of Fe₂O₃ from the balanced equation = 2 × 159.7 = 319.4 g
  • Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol
  • Mass of Fe from the balanced equation = 4 × 55.85 = 223.4 g

From the balanced equation above,

319.4 g of Fe₂O₃ decomposed to produce 223.4 g of Fe

<h3>How to determine the mass of iron, Fe produced</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

319.4 g of Fe₂O₃ decomposed to produce 223.4 g of Fe

Therefore,

21.5 g of Fe₂O₃ will decompose to produce = (21.5 × 223.4) / 319.4 = 15.04 g of Fe

Thus, 15.04 g of Fe were produced.

NeX [460]

Answer:

V₂ → 106.6 mL

Explanation:

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to solve the problem. For the two situations:

P . V = n . R . T

Moles are still the same so → P. V / R. T = n

As R is a constant, the formula to solve this is: P . V / T

P₁ . V₁ / T₁ = P₂ .V₂ / T₂   Let's replace data:

(1.20 atm . 73mL) / 112°C = (0.55 atm . V₂) / 75°C

((87.6 mL.atm) / 112°C) . 75°C = 0.55 atm . V₂

58.66 mL.atm = 0.55 atm . V₂

58.66 mL.atm / 0.55 atm = V₂ → 106.6 mL
