Answer:

% purity of limestone = 96.53%

Explanation:

Question (4).

Weight of impure CaCO₃ = 25.9 g

Molecular weight of CaCO₃ = 40 + 12 + 3(16)

= 100 g per mole

We know at S.T.P. number of moles of CO₂ = 1 and volume = 22.4 liters

From the given reaction, 1 mole of CaCO₃ reacts with 1 mole or 22.4 liters of

CO₂.

∵ 22.4 liters of CO₂ was produced from CaCO3 = 100 g

∴ 1 liter of CO₂ will be produced by CaCO₃ = $\frac{100}{22.4}$

∴ 5.6 liters of CO₂ will be produced by CaCO₃ = $\frac{100\times 5.6}{22.4}$

= 25 g

Therefore, % purity of CaCO₃ = $\frac{\text{Weight calculated}}{{\text{Weight given}}}\times 100$

= $\frac{25}{25.9}\times 100$

= 96.53 %

Atoms of which two elements have a combined total of 23 protons?

Alik [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

Sodium has 11 electrons and Magnesium has 12 electrons. Since here you need to consider atoms, they must have equal amount of protons as electrons to be considered neutral, and so an atom.

So simply 11+12 =23

germanium -66 has a half-life of 2.5 hours. you have 35 grams of radioactive material. after 16 days, how much radioactive mater

Maru [420]

Hey there!

A half-life means after a certain amount of time, half of that substance will be gone/changed after that time.

How many half-lives are in 16 days?

Multiply 16 by 24 (to get the total hours) and divide that by 2.5.

That is 153.6 half-lives.

35(0.5)^(153.6) represents the equation for this.

Simplify this and get 8.88 x 10^(-45).

There will be 2.02 x 10^(-45)g of germanium-66 sample remaining after 16 days.

Hope this helps!

What is the density ρh of hot air inside the balloon? assume that this density is uniform throughout the balloon. express the de

enyata [817]

Answer 1) : The density of the hot air inside the balloon can be found out by using ideal gas equation;

PV = nRT;

As n is number of moles and in gases, number of moles along with mass per mole is equal to the density of the gas.

If the moles in the gas are more the density will be more.

here, density (ρ) = mass (m) / volume (V); substituting in the ideal gas equation we get,

ρ = mP / RT

Answer 2) ρ (hot air) = ρ (cold air) X $\frac{T_{h}}{T_{c}}$

Here according to the formula because T(hot air) >T(cold air),

So, the density of hot air greater than the density of cold air.

The relationship between the ρ (h) = ρ(c) X $\frac{T_{h}}{T_{c}}$
