taurus [48]4 years ago
6 0

Acid rain is caused by a chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as acid rain.

A solution contains 25 grams of KNO3 dissolved in 200. grams of H2O. What is the percent by mass of potassium nitrate in this so
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Percent mass of KNO3 in solution = 11% (Approx)

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of KNO3 = 25 grams

Mass of H2O = 200 grams

Find:

Percent mass of KNO3 in solution

Computation:

Mass of solution = 25 + 200 = 225 grams

Percent mass of KNO3 in solution = [25/225]100

Percent mass of KNO3 in solution = 11.111%

Percent mass of KNO3 in solution = 11% (Approx)

Fe2O3 (s) + 2 Al (s) ---> 3 Fe (l) + Al2O3 (s) Based on the thermite reaction, how much aluminum oxide (Al2O3) is formed from
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

15.3 g

Explanation:

  • Fe₂O₃ (s) + 2Al (s) → 3Fe (l) + Al₂O₃ (s)

First we convert 8.0 grams of aluminum into moles, using its molar mass:

  • 8.0 g Al ÷ 27 g/mol = 0.30 mol Al

Then we <u>convert 0.30 moles of aluminum into moles of aluminum oxide</u>, using the<em> stoichiometric coefficients</em>:

  • 0.30 mol Al * \frac{1molAl_2O_3}{2molAl} = 0.15 mol Al₂O₃

Finally we convert 0.15 moles of Al₂O₃ into grams, using its molar mass:

  • 0.15 mol Al₂O₃ * 102 g/mol = 15.3 g Al₂O₃

PLEASE NEED HELP QUICK DEADLINE SOON
Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

D. Protons ; neutrons.

Explanation:

For a given element the number of protons is fixed, but the number of neutrons differ because the element usually consist of a number of isotopes.

For example Carbon has isotopes which contain 12, 13 and 14 neutrons.

So that is why you average the number of neutrons to find the approximate atomic mass..
