Concentrated hydrogen peroxide solutions are explosively decomposed by traces of transition metal ions (such as Mn or Fe): 2H2O2

(aq) ---> 2H2O(l) + O2(g)
What volume of pure O2(g), collected at 27C and 746 torr, would be generated by decomposition of 125 g of a 50.0% by mass hydrogen peroxide solution?

Answer:

23.0733 L

Explanation:

The mass of hydrogen peroxide present in 125 g of 50% of hydrogen peroxide solution:

Mass=\frac {50}{100}\times 125\ g

Mass = 62.5 g

Molar mass of H_2O_2 = 34 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus, moles are:

moles= \frac{62.5\ g}{34\ g/mol}

moles= 1.8382\ mol

Consider the given reaction as:

2H_2O_2_{(aq)}\rightarrow2H_2O_{(l)}+O_2_{(g)}

2 moles of hydrogen peroxide decomposes to give 1 mole of oxygen gas.

Also,

1 mole of hydrogen peroxide decomposes to give 1/2 mole of oxygen gas.

So,

1.8382 moles of hydrogen peroxide decomposes to give \frac {1}{2}\times 1.8382 mole of oxygen gas. Moles of oxygen gas produced = 0.9191 molGiven: Pressure = 746 torr
The conversion of P(torr) to P(atm) is shown below:
[tex]P(torr)=\frac {1}{760}\times P(atm)

So,

Pressure = 746 / 760 atm = 0.9816 atm

Temperature = 27 °C

The conversion of T( °C) to T(K) is shown below:

T(K) = T( °C) + 273.15  

So,  

T₁ = (27 + 273.15) K = 300.15 K

Using ideal gas equation as:

PV=nRT

where,  

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature  

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

0.9816 atm × V = 0.9191 mol × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 300.15 K

<u>⇒V = 23.0733 L</u>

The elements from this section of the periodic table all belong to the same
krok68 [10]

Answer:

Option C = same period.

Explanation:

All these elements belongs to second period of periodic table. This period consist of eight elements lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon.

Electronic configuration of lithium:

Li₃ = [He] 2s¹

Electronic configuration of beryllium:

Be₄ = [He] 2s²

Electronic configuration of boron:

B₅ = [He] 2s² 2p¹

Electronic configuration of carbon:

C₆ = [He] 2s² 2p²

Electronic configuration of nitrogen:

N₇ = [He] 2s² 2p³

Electronic configuration of oxygen:

O₈ = [He] 2s² 2p⁴

Electronic configuration of fluorine:

F₉ = [He] 2s² 2p⁵

Electronic configuration of neon:

Ne₁₀ = [He] 2s² 2p⁶

All these elements present in same period having same electronic shell.

However their families, valance electrons and group are different. Boron have three valance electrons and belongs to group 3A. Carbon belongs to group 4A and have 4 valance electrons. Nitrogen belongs to group 5A and have five valance electrons. Oxygen belongs to group 6A and have six valance electrons. Fluorine belongs to group 7A and have seven valance electrons.

Lisa [10]

Nuclear fusion in the sun involves hydrogen (H) atoms combining to form helium (He). A student claims that since the atmosphere contains hydrogen, any fusion reaction on Earth would result in an uncontrolled chain reaction. What is wrong in the student’s reasoning is that the uncontrolled chain reactions can only happen during nuclear fission.

What is the difference between alkali metals and halogens?
Airida [17]
<h3>→soft and reactive metals. </h3>

Explanation:

<h3>Alkali metals are soft and reactive metals. They react vigorously with water and become more reactive. And other hand halogens are reactive non metals. ... Halogens can be solid, liquid, gaseous at room temperature and the melting point increase when they get bigger.</h3>

A gas occupies 547 L at 331K. Find its volume at 376K. You must show all of your work to receive credit. Also, name the gas law
zysi [14]

621.4L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume = 547L

Initial temperature = 331K

Final temperature = 376K

Unknown:

Final volume = ?

Solution:

The appropriate gas law to use is the Charles's law.

The Charles's law shows the relationship between the volume and temperature of a gas under constant pressure.

The law states that "The volume of a fixed of a gas varies directly as its absolute temperature if the pressure is constant".

Mathematically;

    \frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} }  = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }

 V₁ is the initial volume

 T₁ is the initial temperature

 V₂ is the final volume

 T₂ is the final temperature

Since the unknown is the final volume, we make it the subject of the expression;

   V₂ = \frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} }  x T_{2}  = \frac{547}{331 }  x 376

 V₂ =  621.4L
