What chemical property must argon have to make it a suitable choice for light bulbs?

Chemistry

Argon is a suitable choice for light bulbs because it's inert. Compared to a reactive gas like oxygen, the metal filimant would burn up in a reactive  enviroment, which is why a noble gas is used.

An elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which an elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction
tresset_1 [31]
So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.

In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.

How many grams of benzene (C6H6) will produce 42 grams of CO2?
3241004551 [841]
The balanced chemical reaction is:<span>

</span><span>2C6H6 + 15O2 → 12CO2 + 6H2O</span><span>

We are given the amount of carbon dioxide to be produced for the reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculations.

</span>42 g CO2 ( 1 mol CO2 / 44.01 g CO2) ( 2 mol C6H6 / 12 mol CO2 ) (78.1074 g C6H6 / 1 mol C6H6) = 12.42 grams of C6H6

Magnesium burns in air with a dazzling brilliance to produce magnesium oxide: 2mg(s) + o2(g) → 2mgo(s) how many moles of o2 are
Naddik [55]
Answer is: 0,275 moles of oxygen are consumed.
Chemical reaction: 2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO.
n(Mg) = 0,550 mol.
n(O₂) = ?
from chemical reaction: n(Mg) : n(O₂) = 2 : 1.
0,550 mol : n(O₂) = 2 : 1.
2n(O₂) = 0,550 mol.
n(O₂) = 0,275 mol.
n - amount of substance.

If 10.0 moles of sulfur dioxide react with excess chlorine gas, what is the theoretical yield (in grams) of CI2O produced?
xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

869 g Cl₂O

Explanation:

To find the theoretical yield of Cl₂O, you need to (1) convert moles SO₂ to moles Cl₂O (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients) and then (2) convert moles Cl₂O to grams Cl₂O (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units (the desired unit should be in the numerator). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the sig figs of the given amount (10.0 moles).

1 SO₂ (g) + 2 Cl₂ (g) ----> 1 SOCl₂ (g) + 1 Cl₂O (g)

Molar Mass (Cl₂O): 2(35.453 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol

Molar Mass (Cl₂O): 86.904 g/mol

10.0 moles SO₂         1 mole Cl₂O            86.904 g
------------------------  x  ----------------------  x  ------------------  = 869 g Cl₂O
                                    1 mole SO₂              1 mole
