I need help in balancing chemical equations

1 answer:

3 0

I can help. First you want to write out each reactant and product with enough space to write in coefficients. Then box the reactants and products to emphazise how the elements shouldnt change. Afterwards, draw a line in front of the box for you to write in the coefficients.Now we srart balancing. To make things easier, you should always follow the method of : (Metals, Nonmetals,Oxygen,Hydrogen) in that order. By balancing each elememt/chemical this way it should make balancing them easier.
So to acryally perform it you're going to look at your first element (while still following the method) and then look over onto the other side to see what coefficient to place. Then after that element is balanced, you move onto the next element. Remember that everytime you balance an element, start over to make sure all of the other elements are still balanced before proceeding.

You are given an unknown mixture containing NaCl and NaHCO3. When you carry out the heating exactly as described in part A, only

SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

1.52g NaHCO3 were in the original mixture.

Mass percent: 64.1%

Explanation:

When NaHCO3 heats it descomposition occurs as follows:

2 NaHCO3(s) → Na2CO3(s) + CO2(g) + H2O(g).

The loss in mass is because of the evaporization of CO2 and H2O. As both are in the same porportion, its molar mass is the sum of both compounds (44g/mol + 18g/mol = 62g/mol)

Loss in mass: 74.80g - 74.24g = 0.56g.

In moles:

0.56g * (1mol / 62g) = 0.00903 moles of gas.

As 1 mole of the gases comes from 2 moles of NaHCO3:

<em>Moles NaHCO3:</em>

0.00903 moles of gas * (2 moles NaHCO3 / 1 mole gas) = 0.018 moles NaHCO3.

In grams (Molar mass NaHCO3: 84g/mol):

0.018 moles NaHCO3 * (84g / mol) = 1.52g NaHCO3 were in the original mixture.

The mass of the mixture was:

74.80g - 72.428g = 2.372g

That means mass percent of NaHCO3 is:

(1.52g / 2.372g) * 100 = 64.1%

The most common isotopic forms of hydrogen are ordinary hydrogen (1H) and deuterium (2H), which have percent compositions of 99.

Alborosie

Answer:

0. 000115

Explanation:

A percentage is defined as a ratio with a basis of 100 as total substance. Convert a percentage to decimal implies to divide the percentage in 100 because decimal form has as basis 1.

For the isotopic forms:

1H: 99.98% → As percent.

99.98% / 100 = 0.9998 → As decimal form.

2H: 0.0115% → As percent.

0.0115% / 100 = <em>0. 000115</em>→ As decimal form.

What is polar satellites????

katrin [286]

Answer:

polar orbit is one in which a satellite passes above or nearly above both poles of the body being orbited (usually a planet such as the Earth, but possibly another body such as the Moon or Sun) on each revolution. It has an inclination of about 60 - 90 degrees to the body's equator.[1] A satellite in a polar orbit will pass over the equator at a different longitude on each of its orbits.

Launching satellites into polar orbit requires a larger launch vehicle to launch a given payload to a given altitude than for a near-equatorial orbit at the same altitude, due to the fact that much less of the Earth's rotational velocity can be taken advantage of to achieve orbit. Depending on the location of the launch site and the inclination of the polar orbit, the launch vehicle may lose up to 460 m/s of Delta-v, approximately 5% of the Delta-v required to attain Low Earth orbit. Polar orbits are a subtype of Low Earth orbits with altitudes between 200 and 1,000 kilometers.[1]
