Which of these redox reactions is spontaneous as written?

In a previous problem, the empirical formula of a compound of phosphorus and oxygen was found to be p2o5. experimentation shows

agasfer [191]

The empirical formula for the compound is - P₂O₅
the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound.
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound.
we have to first find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula
molecular mass - 283.89 g/mol
mass of empirical formula - 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 283.89 g/mol / 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 1.000
therefore empirical formula = molecular formula
molecular formula - P₂O₅

Mary starts from her house, walks 80 meters south, and stops to chat with her aunt on the sidewalk. After chatting for a few min

Olenka [21]

(80+125+45) / 10 = 250/10 =25
25 meters per minute= 0.41 meters/second

the direction and stopping time is irrelevant to the problem.

Is 2 KNO₃ + H₂CO₃ → K₂CO₃ + 4 HNO₃ a balanced equation

krok68 [10]

Hey there!

The elements in this equation are K, N, O, H, and C.

Let's count how many of each are on each side to see if it is balanced.

K: 2 on the left, 2 on the right.

N: 2 on the left, 4 on the right.

O: 9 on the left, 6 on the right.

H: 2 on the left, 4 on the right.

C: 1 on the left, 1 on the right.

Notice that there are different amounts of N, O, and H on the left side and the right side.

This means that the equation is not balanced.

Hope this helps!

a 25.0-ml volume of a sodium hydroxide solution requires 19.6 ml of a 0.189 m hydrochloric acid for neutralization. a 10.0- ml v

Rashid [163]

Concentration of NaOH = 0.148 molar, M

Concentration of H3PO4 = 0.172 molar, M

Concentration x Volume will give the number of moles of solute in that volume. C*V = moles

Concentration has a unit of (moles/liter). When multiplied by the liters of solution used, the result is the number of moles.

Original HCl solution: (0.189 moles/L)*(0.0196 L)= 0.00370 moles of HCl

The neutralization of 25.0 ml of sodium hydroxide, NaOH, requires 0.00370 moles of HCl. The reaction is:

NaOH + HCl > NaCl and H2O

This balanced equation tells us that neutralization of NaOH with HCl requires the same number of moles of each. We just determined that the moles of HCl used was 0.00370 moles. Therefore, the 25.0 ml solution of NaOH had the same number of moles: 0.00370 moles NaOH.

The 0.00370 moles of NaOH was contained in 25.0 ml (0.025 liters). The concentration of NaOH is therefore:

(0.00370 moles of NaOH)/(0.025 L) = 0.148 moles/liter or Molar, M

The phosphoric acid problem is handled the same way, but with an added twist. Phosphoric acid is H3PO4. We learn the 34.9 ml of the same NaOH solution (0.148M) is needed to neutralize the H3PO4. But now the acid has three hydrogens that will react. The balanced equation for this reaction is:

H3PO4 + 3NaOH = Na3PO4 + 3H2O

Now we need three times the moles of NaOH to neutralize 1 mole of H3PO4.

The moles of NaOH that were used is:

(0.148M)*(0.0349 liters) = 0.00517 moles of NaOH

Since the molar ratio of NaOH to H3PO4 is 3 for neutralization, the NaOH only neutralized (0.00517)*(1/3)moles of H3PO4 = 0.00172 moles of H3PO4.

The 0.00172 moles of H3PO4 was contained in 10.0 ml. The concentration is therefore:

(0.00172 moles H3PO4)/(0.010 liters H3PO4)

Concentration of H3PO4 = 0.172 molar, M

How many seconds are there in two 24 hour days?

Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

86,400 seconds in a day.

Explanation:

There are 24 hrs in a day. So there are 2460 mins in a day. ( 1hr=60 mins) So there are 246060 seconds in a day. (1 min = 60 seconds) Therefore 86,400 seconds in a day.
