What is wrong with the following explanation of an experiment? When it was heated, the sample of carbon decomposed.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Drupady [299]3 years ago

"Carbon" is an element. It is found in the fourth group of the periodic table, and it is a stable element. This means that it can not be decomposed via heating, because if an element were to break down, it would release its subatomic particles. The explanation was probably one used to describe the thermal decomposition of a compound into smaller compounds.

How does a Camel prevent the loss of water from their body?​
Schach [20]

Camels lose less water through their urine and feces than many other mammals. Their kidneys concentrate water heavily, leading to salty urine. The intestines also reabsorb water from intestinal material as it is digested, so dry feces are produced.

Lana balanced an equation so that the result was 2C2H3Br + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O + 2HBr. Which most likely represents the starting e
seropon [69]

Answer:

C2H3Br + O2 → CO2 + H2O + HBr

Explanation:

The term balancing of chemical reaction equation has a unique meaning in chemistry. What it actually means is to ensure that the number of atoms of each element on the left hand side of reaction equation becomes equal to the number of atoms of the same element on the right hand side of the reaction equation.

When we look at the equation; C2H3Br + O2 → CO2 + H2O + HBr, the number of atoms of each element on the left and right hand sides of the given equation are not the same hence the equation is unbalanced.

If we look at the equation; 2C2H3Br + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O + 2HBr, the number of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction equation are now equal, thus the later equation is the balanced version of the former.

In the decomposition potassium nitride, 10.65 g of nitrogen form. How much potassium nitride was present initially ?
leonid [27]

Answer:

Mass =  99.8 g  

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of potassium nitride = ?

Mass of nitrogen produced = 10.65 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2K₃N→ 6K + N₂

Moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles =  10.65 g / 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.38 mol

Now we will compare the moles of nitrogen with potassium nitride.

                        N₂              ;         K₃N

                         1               :            2

                         0.38          :          2×0.38 =0.76

Mass of potassium nitride:

Mass = molar mass × number of moles

Mass =    131.3 g/mol ×   0.76 mol

Mass =  99.8 g
