Answer:  subscript 3 mean 3 oxygen atoms

Explanation:  NaHCO3 is an ionic compound which when dissolved in water gets dissociated into its constituent ions that are Na+ and HCO3- .

Thus the subscript 3 explains the number of oxygen that are attached to the carbon in the hydrogen carbonate ion.

The structure of the following is given below -

One method for preparing pure iron from Fe2O3 is by reaction with carbon monoxide.Fe2O3(s)+CO(g)→Fe(s)+CO2(g) How many moles of
larisa [96]

Answer:

The 2292 moles of CO are needed to react completely with 122 Kg of Fe₂O₃.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Fe₂O₃ = 122 Kg ( 122×1000 =  122000 g)

Moles of CO = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Fe₂O₃ + 3CO  → 2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of  Fe₂O₃:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 122000 g /159.69 g/mol

Number of moles = 764 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Fe₂O₃ with CO.

                               Fe₂O₃            :            CO  

                                  1                  :             3

                               764                :             3×764  =2292 mol

The 2292 moles of CO are needed to react completely with 122 Kg of Fe₂O₃.

Which metal will react spontaneously with Cu2+ (aq) at 25°C?
Gwar [14]

Answer:

Mg  

Explanation:

The standard reduction potentials are

                                              <u>E°/V </u>

Au³⁺(aq ) + 3e⁻  ⟶  Au(s);     1.42

Hg²⁺(aq)  + 2e⁻  ⟶  Hg(l);     0.85

Ag⁺(aq)    +   e⁻  ⟶  Ag(s);    0.80

Cu²⁺(aq)   + 2e⁻ ⟶  Cu(s);   0.34

Mg2+(aq) + 2e- ⟶  Mg(s);   -2.38

The more negative the standard reduction potential, the stronger the metal is as a reducing agent.

Mg is the only metal with a standard reduction potential lower than that of Cu, so

Only Mg will react spontaneously with Cu²⁺.

An excess of mg(s) is added to 100.ml of 0.400 m hcl. at 0c and 1 atm pressure, what volume of h 2 (g) can be obtained?
ra1l [238]
The balanced equation for the reaction between Mg and HCl is as follows
Mg + 2HCl --> MgCl₂ + H₂
stoichiometry of HCl to H₂ is 2:1

number of HCl moles reacted - 0.400 mol/L x 0.100 L = 0.04 mol of HCl
since Mg is in excess HCl is the limiting reactant 
number of H₂ moles formed - 0.04/2 = 0.02 mol of H₂

we can use ideal gas law equation to find the volume of H₂
PV = nRT 
where 
P - pressure - 1 atm x 101 325 Pa/atm = 101 325 Pa
V - volume
n - number of moles - 0.02 mol
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature in Kelvin - 0 °C + 273 = 273 K
substituting these values in the equation 

101 325 Pa x V = 0.02 mol x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 273 K
V = 448 x 10⁻⁶ m³
V = 448 mL 
therefore answer is 
c. 448 mL

How many moles are there in 2.30 x 1024 atoms of silver?
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Step 1 should be convert atoms to moles (n). Step 2 should be convert moles (n) to mass (m).

Step 1

Use dimensional analysis to convert the number of atoms to moles.

1 mole atoms = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

n(Ag) = 2.3 × 10²⁴ Ag atoms × (1 mol Ag/6.022 × 10²³ Ag atoms) = 3.8193 mol Ag

Step 2

Convert the moles of Ag to mass.

mass (m) = moles (n) × molar mass (M)

n(Ag) = 3.8193 mol Ag

M(Ag) = atomic weight on the periodic table in g/mol = 107.868 g Ag/mol Ag

m(Ag) = 3.8193 mol × 107.868 g/mol = 412 g Ag = 410 g Ag rounded to two significant figures

The mass of 2.3 × 10²⁴ Ag atoms is approximately 410 g.
