Answer: expanding gases

Explanation:

Under the Earth's crust the rocks are held in liquid form under high pressure and temperature. As the magma rises the dissolved gases in the magma expands and the magma forces out of the magma chamber through a pipe and out the vent of a volcano as lava.

i really hope this is right :/

A chemical equation is shown below. KNO3 → KNO2 + O2 What are the coefficients that should be added to balance this equation? Us

uysha [10]

20) Balanced chemical equation: 2KNO₃ → 2KNO₂ + O₂.

Potassium nitrate is decomposed on potassium nitrite and oxygen.

According to principle of mass conservation, number of atoms must be equal on both side of chemical reaction.

There are two potassium atoms, two nitrogen atoms and six oxygen atoms on both side of balanced chemical reaction.

Decomposition is reaction where one substance (in this example potassium nitrate) is broken down into two or more simpler substances (potassium nitrite and oxygen).

21) The answer is:

Balanced chemical reaction: double recplacement reaction.

MgCl₂(aq) + Na₂CO₃(aq) → MgCO₃(s) + 2NaCl(aq).

The magnesium (Mg) and the sodium (Na) replace each other making this a double replacement reaction.

Reactivity series is an empirical progression of a series of metals, arranged by their reactivity from highest to lowest (alkaline metals have highest reactivity and Noble metals lowest reactivity):

K > Ba > Sr > Na > Ca > Mg > Be > Al > Mn > Zn > Cr> Fe > Cd > Co > Ni > Sn > Pb > H(in acids) > Cu > Hg > Ag.

Metal higher in the reactivity series will displace another and it will be oxidized.

Magnesium is higher it this series than aluminium and aluminium is higher than copper.

22) The answer is: half life is 22 years.

Half-life is the time required for a quantity (in this example mass of the element) to reduce to half its initial value and is independent of initial concentration.

Mass of the element is reduced by half in 22 years from 45 grams to 22.5 grams.

First calculate the radioactive decay rate constant λ:

λ = 0.693 ÷ t.

λ = 0.693 ÷ 22 y.

λ = 0.0315 1/y.

ln(m/m₀) = -λ·t₁.

ln(4.8125/308) = -0.0315 1/y · t₁.

t₁ = 132.02 y.

What is the difference between a quantity and a unit?

Irina-Kira [14]

$Question$

What is the difference between a quantity and a unit?

Answer:

Physical quantities are a characteristic or property of an object that can be measured or calculated from other measurements. Units are standards for expressing and comparing the measurement of physical quantities. All units can be expressed as combinations of four fundamental units.

Hope this helps!!!

A 0.245-L flask contains 0.467 mol co2 at 159 °c. Caculate the pressure using Van der Walls equation

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

The right answer is "60.56 atm".

Explanation:

As we know,

Vander wall's equation is:

⇒ $(P+\frac{n^2 a}{v^2} )(v-nb)=nRT$

or,

⇒ $P=\frac{nRT}{(v-nb)}-\frac{n^2 a}{v^2}$

Here,

a = 3.59 L² atm mol⁻²

b = 0.0427 L mol⁻¹

By putting the values in the above equation, we get

⇒ $P=\frac{0.467\times 0.0821\times 432}{0.245-0.467\times 0.0427}$

$=\frac{(0.467)^2\times 3.49}{(0.245)^2}$

$=73.61-13.05$

$=60.56 \ atm$

(40 Points) Complete, balance, compute the amounts of the products assuming 100% yield. 12g Zinc Solid + 24g Silver Nitrate

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

Zn + 2AgNO₃ → Zn(NO₃)₂ +2Ag

13.34g Zn(NO₃)₃ and 15.24g Ag are formed if reaction is 100% complete.

Explanation:

molar mass of Zn=65 g

molar mass of AgNO₃=170 g

molar mass of Zn(NO₃)₂ =189 g

molar mass of Silver = 108 g

Zn + 2 AgNO₃ → Zn(NO₃)₂ +2 Ag eq(1)

1 mole Zn reacts with 2 moles Silver nitrate to give 1 mole Zinc nitrate and 2 moles Silver

65 g Zn reacts with 2×170 g of AgNO₃ → 189 g Zn(NO₃)₂ and 2×108 g Ag - eq(2)

First find limiting reagent of the reaction

65g Zn reacts with 2×170g of AgNO₃

12 g Zn reacts with (12÷65)×2×170 g AgNO₃

=62.7 g AgNO₃

For the reaction to go to 100% yield 12 g Zn will need 62.7 g AgNO₃

but amount of AgNO₃ is 24 g

So the reaction yields is limited by amount of AgNO₃.

AgNO₃ is the limiting reagent.

So calculate the yield of products with the amount of AgNO₃

by eq(2)

2× 170 gAgNO₃ gives 189 g Zn(NO₃)₃

=340 g AgNO₃ gives 189 g Zn(NO₃)₃

24 g AgNO₃ gives (24÷340) ×189 g Zn(NO₃)₃

=13.34g Zn(NO₃)₃

again by eq2

2×170 g AgNO₃ gives 2×108 g Ag

= 340 g AgNO₃ gives 216 g Ag

24 g AgNO₃ gives (24÷340)×216 g Ag

= 15.24g Ag
