The  tendency  of  iron  to  rust   depend  on  the  Ph   of solution

 The   formation  of  rust  increases  as  the  PH  decreases.  This  led  agent  of  rusting  that  is  oxygen  gets  more  positive  as  H+  ions  increase   which  facilitate     rusting. The    lower  the  Ph  level  the   quick  the   corrosion.

Rust occurs when an area of  an iron or a ferrous allow such as steel drops below a pH of about 8.2 or 8.3. 
Formation of rust increases as the pH decreases.
Rust is chemically known as hydrated iron (iii) oxide, oxygen gets more positive as H+ increases.

When it comes to equilibrium reactions, it useful to do ICE analysis. ICE stands for Initial-Change-Equilibrium. You subtract the initial and change to determine the equilibrium amounts which is the basis for Kc. Kc is the equilibrium constant of concentration which is just the ratio of products to reactant. 

Let's do the ICE analysis

      2 NH₃ ⇄ N₂ + 3 H₂
I         0        1.3    1.65
C     +2x       -x      -3x
-------------------------------------
E       0.1        ?        ?

The variable x is the amount of moles of the substances that reacted. You apply the stoichiometric coefficients by multiplying it by x. Now, we can solve x by:

Equilibrium NH₃ = 0.1 = 0 + 2x
x = 0.05 mol
Therefore,
Equilibrium H₂ = 1.65 - 3(0.05) = 1.5 mol
Equilibrium N₂ = 1..3 - 0.05 = 1.25 mol

For the second part, I am confused with the given reaction because the stoichiometric coefficients do not balance which violates the law of conservation of mass. But you should remember that the Kc values might differ because of the stoichiometric coefficient. For a reaction: aA + bB ⇄ cC, the Kc for this is

K_{C} = \frac{[ C^{c} ]}{[ A^{a} ][ B^{b} ]}

Hence, Kc could vary depending on the stoichiometric coefficients of the reaction.

If you want 2 miles of Silver (Ag) from the reaction below, how many grams of copper should you start with? Reaction: Cu + 2AgNO
RSB [31]

Answer:

You should start with 63.54 grams of copper.

Explanation:

The chemical reactions are processes in which the nature of the substances changes, that is, from some initial substances called reactants, totally different ones called products are obtained.

In the chemical reaction, the formulas of reagents and products appear preceded by numbers (the stoichiometric coefficients) that indicate the proportions according to which the transformation occurs. So you can say that stoichiometry establishes relationships between the molecules or elements that make up the reactants of a chemical equation with the products of said reaction. The relationships that are established are MOLAR relationships between the compounds or elements that make up the chemical equation: always in MOLES.

The stoichiometric coefficients of a chemical equation are due to the fact that the atoms present before the reaction must be the same after the reaction, although they will have been rearranged to produce new substances.

If you want 2 moles of silver (Ag), for stoichiometry of the reaction you need a moles of copper Cu. Being the molar mass of copper Cu 63.54 g / mole, then:

1 mole*63.54 g/mole= 63.54 g

<u><em> You should start with 63.54 grams of copper.</em></u>

How are the properties of organic compounds determined?
Harman [31]

Explanation:

The physical properties of organic compounds typically of interest include both quantitative and qualitative features. Quantitative information includes a melting point, boiling point, and index of refraction. Qualitative properties include odor, consistency, solubility, and color.

A boy swings a rubber ball attached to a string over his head in a horizontal, circular path. The piece of string is 1.15 m long
gregori [183]

Answer:

v = 16.49 m/s

Explanation:

Given that,

Length of the string, l = 1.15 m

The ball makes 137 complete turns each minute.

We know that, 1 turn = 6.28 rad

137 turns = 860.79 rad

1 min = 60 s

\omega=\dfrac{860.79\ rad}{60\ s}\\\\=14.34\ rad/s

We need to find the tangential velocity of the ball. It can be given by

v=r\omega\\\\=1.15\times 14.34\\\\v=16.49\ m/s

So, the tangential velocity of the ball is 16.49 m/s.
