According to the equation for this chemical reaction, what does the 2 in front of 2Ag tell us?

Chemistry

the right answer is "Two atoms of silver are needed to complete the reaction." because two atoms of silver are needed to complete the reaction. The silver atoms are used to produce silver sulfide. There must be two atoms of silver on each side of the arrow to balance the equation. Atoms are never lost or gained in a chemical reaction.

Although the complete chemical equation was not stated in the question, I can infer that Ag or silver is one of the reactants. This is because silver is not typically produced by chemical reactions, rather, it is sourced from mining silver ores. Also, the last option mentions the production of silver sulfide. This means that the chemical reaction referred to is: 2Ag + H₂S →Ag₂S + H₂. Thus, the 2 in 2Ag tells us that t<span>wo atoms of silver are lost in this reaction.</span>

0.250 moles of NaCl is dissolved in 0.850 L of solution. What is the molar concentration?
Nuetrik [128]

Considering the definition of molarity, the molar concentration is 0.294 \frac{moles}{liter}.

Molarity reflects the concentration of a solution indicating the number of moles of solute that are dissolved in a given volume.

The molarity of a solution is calculated by dividing the moles of the solute by the volume of the solution:

molarity=\frac{amount of moles of solute}{volume}

Molarity is expressed in units \frac{moles}{liter}.

In this case, you know:

  • amount of moles of solute= 0.250 moles
  • volume= 0.850 L

Replacing in the definition of molarity:

molarity=\frac{0.250 moles}{0.850 L}

Solving:

molarity= 0.294 \frac{moles}{liter}

Finally, the molar concentration is 0.294 \frac{moles}{liter}.

1. Carson completed conductivity testing on the solutions shown in the data table below and recorded his findings in the conduct
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

See below :)

Explanation:

There is an evident reason why some of the solutions Carson's has listed and observed, does conduct electricity and some that do.

A flow of electrical charge is called an electric current. Ions are atoms, or sets of atoms, that contain an electrical charge. There are two types of ions, cation or a positively charged ion containing a deficiency of electrons, and anion or a negatively charged ion which contains a surplus of electrons. When a solution conducts electricity the charge is carried within by ions that move through the solution. The larger the number of ions in the solution, the better the conductivity of the solution is. Pure water does not conduct very well because it contains very few ions, but when table salt (NaCl) is dissolved in the water, this solution does conduct well because the solution contains a more abundance of ions. The majority of the ions come from the table salt, chemically names sodium chloride. Because Sodium contains its sodium ions, and these are positive charge and chloride ions which is a negative charge, it is called an ionic substance. Not every substance is made up of ions, one such example is sugar (C12H22O11). Sugar is made up of uncharged particles also called molecules. Although sugar is a substance its molecules do not hold a charge, thus when sugar is dissolved in water, the solution does not conduct electricity, due to the lack of ions in the solution.

Therefore, depending on the ions that make up the compound, the substance would or would not conduct electricity.

Ksju [112]

Answer:

A. It is exothermic

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with oxygen present in air to produce carbon (iv) oxide and water as well release  heat and light energy.Combustion is an exothermic process.

An exothermic reaction releases energy in the form of heat to the surroundings. The energy required to break bonds in the reactants is less than the energy required to form new bonds in the products in an exothermic reaction.

From the given options;

A. It is exothermic is determinable since the reaction is a combustion reaction

B. The bond making energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather it is composed of various substances.

C. It is endothermic. is wrong because combustion of wood is exothermic.

D. The bond breaking energy is more than 600 kJ is not certain because the mass of the wood being burnt is not given. Also, wood is not composed of a specific element that would be taking part in the reaction, rather is composed of many substances.
