Which is the coal with the highest energy available per unit to burn: lignite, subbituminous, bituminous, or anthracite?

Chemistry

Answer:

Anthracite

Explanation:

Anthracite produce highest amount of energy than other. It contain 86-97 percent carbon. Bituminous coal contain 45-86 percent carbon.

Subbituminous cola have 35-45 percent carbon while lignite contain 25-35 percent carbon.

Coal is source of many organic materials. It is fossil fuel and form after long period decay of plants. It is formed when trees are buried under earth

about 500 million years ago. The chemical and bacterial reactions take place and plant wood converted into the peat.

Than because of high temperature and pressure inside the earth peat is converted into the coal.

Through other processes it is than used to make the fuels such as coke. coal tar and coal gas.

Coal tar is the source of many organic compounds which are separated through fractional distillation.

About 80% of coal in Pakistan is used to bake the bricks and also used in lime kilns and for domestic purpose.

Which of the following best describes a metal? Brittle, shiny, and solid Brittle, dull, and low density Malleable, shiny, and ab
yanalaym [24]

Answer : The correct option is, Malleable, shiny, and able to conduct heat or electricity.

Explanation:

Metals : Metals are the elements which can easily loose electrons and forms cations.

Properties of metals :

  • They are lustrous (shine).
  • They are malleable and ductile (flexible).
  • They conduct heat and electricity.
  • The metallic oxides are basic in nature.
  • They form cations in an aqueous solution.

Non-metals : Non-metals are the elements which can easily gain electrons and form an anion.

Properties of non-metals :

  • They are non-lustrous.
  • They are brittle and hard in nature.
  • They do not conduct heat and electricity.
  • The non-metallic oxides are acidic in nature.
  • They form anions in an aqueous solution.

Hence, from the given options the correct option for metal is, Malleable, shiny, and able to conduct heat or electricity.

Keq for the reaction below is 2400. If the initial conditions of the reaction are a 1.0 L flask that contains 0.024 mol NO (g),
podryga [215]

Answer:

The answer to your question is it is not at equilibrium, it will move to the products.

Explanation:

Data

Keq = 2400

Volume = 1 L

moles of NO = 0.024

moles of N₂ = 2

moles of O₂ = 2.6

Process

1.- Determine the concentration of reactants and products

[NO] = 0.024 / 1 = 0.024

[N₂] = 2/1 = 2

[O₂] = 2.6/ 1= 2.6

2.- Balanced chemical reaction

                     N₂ + O₂    ⇒   2NO

3.- Write the equation for the equilibrium of this reaction

                     Keq = [NO]²/[N₂][O₂]

- Substitution

                    Keq = [0.024]² / [2][2.6]

-Simplification

                    Keq = 0.000576 / 5.2

-Result

                    Keq = 1.11 x 10⁻⁴

Conclusion

It is not at equilibrium, it will move to the products because the experimental Keq was lower than the Keq theoretical-

                         1.11 x 10⁻⁴ < 2400

Which contains more molecules; a mole of Chlorine gas (Cl2 ) or a mole of glucose (C6H1206) ?
Elodia [21]
This is a tricky question. a mole of any compound contains the same number of molecules of that certain compound. so, one mole of chlorine gas has the same number of molecules as one mole of glucose, which is 6.02 x 10^23.

this is avogadro's number and it applies for any mole of molecules. 

the question is tricky because it is like asking. " what weighs more, a pound of feathers or a pound of rocks?" the both weigh the same, a pound. when ewe talking about moles, same as pounds, it is a quantity unit. one mole will aways be equal to 6.02 x 10^23 molecules.
