5. Sodium peroxide reacts vigorously with water in the following unbalanced equation:

Chemistry
1 answer:
Rasek [7]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

30.7 g of O₂ are produced

Explanation:

This is a redox reaction, where the peroxide is reduced to oxygen and oxidized to hydroxide. The equation is this one:

2Na₂O₂ + 2H₂O → 4NaOH + 3O₂

We assume that water is in excess, so the peroxide is the limiting reagent.

We convert the mass to moles: 50 g . 1mol / 78 g = 0.641 moles

2 moles of peroxide can produce 3 moles of oxygen (according to stoichiometry)

Then, 0.641 moles of peroxide will produce (0.641 . 3 ) /2 = 0.961 moles O₂

Finally, we convert the moles to mass: 0.961mol . 32 g / 1mol = 30.7 g of O₂

In acid rain, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides from emissions cause a change in the normal pH level. Which of the following is
kow [346]

The pH levels of acid rain are very acidic; in the range of 2.0-3.0, is not true for acid rain.

Answer: D

Explanation

Acid rain is termed for the rain which contains acidic precipitations.

The precipitations of acids are generally made up of sulfuring and nitric acid.

The sulfuric and nitric acids were formed by the chemical reaction occurring between the water, oxygen and other chemicals present in the atmosphere with the sulfur-di-oxide and nitrous oxide emitted in the atmosphere due to burning of natural resources, fossil fuels, etc.

The chemical reaction of these oxides with water, oxygen and other chemicals leads to formation of acids.

Some of the oxides are emitted from burning of natural resources while the major emissions occur from burning of fossil fuels.

Also the oxides react in atmosphere to form acids.

So the options (A),(B) and (C) are true for acid rain.

But the option (D) is not true as the acid rain is not much acidic in nature, as it is getting dissolved in water so the range of acidity is 4.2-4.4 and not 2.0-3.0.

Solutions can only be separated by using distillation not filtration. Why can't a solution be filtered? Explain using the terms
garri49 [273]
<h2>Solutions</h2>

Explanation:

  • Solutions are formed when a solute gets dissolved in a solvent. The solid that gets dissolved is called solute whereas the liquid in which the solid gets dissolved is called the solvent. On dissolving,  the particles of the solute  gets incorporated between the inter-particle space of the solvent. This means that there is no significant difference between the particle size of solute and solvent. However the boiling points of solutions can differ significantly. This is the reason, the solutions cannot be separated by the method of filtration but by the method of distillation.

Is glue a liquid or a solid
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

White school glue is liquid because its long polymers can slide over and along one another. It does not flow easily, though; it is quite viscous. The addition of some chemicals—such as a borax solution (or sodium tetraborate decahydrate dissolved in water)—can cause cross-links to form between the polymers.

Lana71 [14]

Answer:

Diamond - E

Sugar- C

Milk - M

Iron- E

Air- M

Sulfuric Acid- C

Gasoline - M

Electricity- X

Krypton- E

Bismuth - E

Uranium - E

Kool-Aid -M

Water - C

Alcohol - C

Pail of Garbage - M

Ammonia - C

Salt - C

Energy - X

Gold - E

Wood - M

Bronze - M

Ink - M

Pizza - M

Dry Ice - C

Baking Soda - C

Explanation:

An element is the smallest part of a substance that is capable of independent existence. An element cannot be broken down into any other substance. Krypton, Bismuth etc are all elements.

A compound is a combination of two or more elements which are chemically combined together e.g NH3, CO2 etc.

A mixture is any combination of substances that are not chemically combined together. E.g Pizza, milk etc

Consider the reaction 2 CO + O2 → 2 CO2 .What is the percent yield of carbon dioxide
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Y=50.9\%

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the reaction, we can directly compute the theoretically yielded grams of carbon dioxide, considering the 2:2 molar ratio between carbon monoxide (molar mass = 28 g/mol) and carbon dioxide (molar mass = 44 g/mol) and the initial reacting grams of carbon monoxide in excess oxygen:

m_{CO_2}^{theoretical}=10gCO*\frac{1molCO}{28gCO}*\frac{2molCO_2}{2molCO}*\frac{44gCO_2}{1molCO_2}   =15.7gCO_2

Thus, as only 8 g were actually yielded, we compute the percent yield:

Y=\frac{8g}{15.7g}*100\% \\\\Y=50.9\%

Best regards.
