If an isotope of iron (Fe) has 23 electrons, what charge does it have?

nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

$a)\ 2FeSO4 \xrightarrow{\text{Heat}} SO_3+SO_2+Fe_2O_3\\b)\ Decomposition\ Reaction$

Explanation:

Ferrous Sulphate $(FeSO4)$ is generally found as Lime-Green Crystals. On heating, these crystals almost immediately turn white-yellow. They then, break down to produce an anhydrous mixture of Sulphur Trioxide $(SO_3)$ , Sulphur Dioxide $(SO_2)$ as well as Ferric Oxide $(Fe_2O_3)$ .

We can hence, frame a skeletal equation of this reaction and try to balance it.

Hence,

$FeSO4 \xrightarrow{\text{Heat}} SO_3+SO_2+Fe_2O_3$

Now,

a)In order to balance it through the 'Hit &Trial Method', we'll follow a series of steps:

1. First, lets compare the number of Fe (Iron) atoms on the RHS and LHS. We find that, the no. of Fe Atoms on the RHS is twice the number of Fe Atoms on the LHS. We hence, add a co-effecient 2 beside $FeSO_4$ .

2. Now, Iron atoms, Sulphur Atoms and Oxygen atoms occur 2, 2, 8 respectively on both the sides:

Hence, As all the other elements as well as iron, balance, we've arrived upon our Balanced Equation :

$2FeSO4 \xrightarrow{\text{Heat}} SO_3+SO_2+Fe_2O_3$

b) We know that, decomposition reactions are [generally] endothermic reactions in which Large Compounds decompose into smaller elements and compounds. Here, as Ferrous Sulphate decomposes into Sulphur Dioxide, Sulphur Trioxide and Ferric Oxide, the reaction that occurs here is Decomposition Reaction.

Two substances A and B, initially at different temperatures, are thermally isolated from their surroundings and allowed to come

Elden [556K]

Answer:

B

Explanation:

For solving this we need a heat balance

$Q_{a} = Q_{b}\\m_{a}*C_{a}*\Delta T_{a} = m_{b}*C_{b}*\Delta T_{b}$

By changing the corresponding relations, we have

$m_{a}*C_{a}*\Delta T_{a} = \frac{1}{2}m_{a}*4C_{a}*\Delta T_{b} \\\\\\$

By cancelling similar factor, we obtain

$\Delta T_{a} = 2 \Delta T_{b}\\\frac{\Delta T_{a}}{\Delta T_{b}} = 2\\$

Which means that the change of temperature in A is twice the change of B

7.The equation below shows a process that occurs in all green plants.

pychu [463]

Answer:

Ⓓ The process follows the law of conservation of mass and energy is found in the product

Explanation:

This question depicts PHOTOSYNTHESIS, which is the process employed by green plants to manufacture their food in form of sugars (glucose). The general equation, which was given in the question is as follows:

6CO2 + 6H2O + energy → C6H12O6 + 6O2

This chemical reaction follows the LAW OF CONSERVATION OF MASS, which states that the amount of matter in reactant must equate that of the product. In this case, each element contains the same number of atoms in both reactant side and product side.

Also, energy is contained in the product but stored in the chemical bonds of the glucose molecule formed.

The reaction is endothermic as energy is absorbed to break a bond.
