Answer:

Moles of Hydrogen produced is 5 moles

Explanation:

The balanced Chemical equation for reaction between zinc and sulfuric acid is :

$Zn(s) + H_{2}SO_{4}(aq) \rightarrow ZnSO_{4}(aq) + H_{2}(g)$

This equation tells that ; when 1 mole of Zn react with 1 mole of sulfuric acid, it produces 1 mole of zinc sulfate and 1 mole of hydrogen.

Since sulfuric acid is in excess so Zinc is the limiting reagent

(Limiting reagent : Substance which get consumed when the reaction completes, limiting reagent helps in predicting the amount of products formed)

Limiting reagent (Zn) will decide the amount of Hydrogen produced

$Zn(s) + H_{2}SO_{4}(aq) \rightarrow ZnSO_{4}(aq) + H_{2}(g)$

$1\ mole\ zinc\rightarrow 1\ mole\ H_{2}$

So,

$5\ mole\ zinc\rightarrow 5\ mole\ H_{2}$

Hence moles of Hydrogen produced is 5 moles

A sample of salt (sodium chloride) is placed on the tip of a platinum wire. When the sample is heated on blue flame the flame tu

gulaghasi [49]

So platinum is a transition metal. In general transition metals are reducers, which means they can give the electrons they have, to the sodium atoms. Also in chemistry we look at sub orbitals rather that shells(2,8,8). So due to the energy from heat, the d orbital split as electrons move to a higher energy level. Some of the electrons are given to the sodium ions and therefore the flame changes colour to yellow.
The excitation of the electrons is caused by them getting energy and so moving up an energy level. This energy is released and the electron returns to it's original state. The energy released, however, does not release in the same direction, but in different/various directions. Therefore the colour of the light changes as some energy is released in the surrounding.

Which of the following statements about alkenes is not correct?

professor190 [17]

Option-C: They react mainly by substitution.

Explanation:
Alkene doesn't give substitution reactions because they are non polar in nature. The double bond in alkene is responsible for Electrophillic Addition reactions as it electron rich and nucleophilic in nature. Reaction of Alkene is given below,

When 1.98g of a hydrocarbon is burned in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature increases by 2.06∘C. If the heat capacity of the ca

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

8.3 kJ

Explanation:

In this problem we have to consider that both water and the calorimeter absorb the heat of combustion, so we will calculate them:

q for water:

q H₂O = m x c x ΔT where m: mass of water = 944 mL x 1 g/mL = 944 g

c: specific heat of water = 4.186 J/gºC

ΔT : change in temperature = 2.06 ºC

so solving for q :

q H₂O = 944 g x 4.186 J/gºC x 2.06 ºC = 8,140 J

For calorimeter

q calorimeter = C x ΔT where C: heat capacity of calorimeter = 69.6 ºC

ΔT : change in temperature = 2.06 ºC

q calorimeter = 69.60J x 2.06 ºC = 143.4 J

Total heat released = 8,140 J + 143.4 J = 8,2836 J

Converting into kilojoules by dividing by 1000 we will have answered the question:

8,2836 J x 1 kJ/J = 8.3 kJ

A sample of gas has an initial pressure of 1.5 atm, an initial volume of 3.0 L, and an initial temperature of 293K. If the final

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

1.9 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial pressure (P₁): 1.5 atm

Initial volume (V₁): 3.0 L

Initial temperature (T₁): 293 K

Final pressure (P₂): 2.5 atm

Final volume (V₂): ?

Final temperature (T₂): 303 K

Step 2: Calculate the final volume of the gas

If we assume ideal behavior, we can calculate the final volume of the gas using the combined gas law.

P₁ × V₁ / T₁ = P₂ × V₂ / T₂

V₂ = P₁ × V₁ × T₂ / T₁ × P₂

V₂ = 1.5 atm × 3.0 L × 303 K / 293 K × 2.5 atm = 1.9 L
