Answer:

The chemical reaction in which solid calcium oxide is treated liquid water is an example of Synthesis reaction. Hence, the answer is (D) Synthesis.

Explanation:

The formula of Calcium Oxide is CaO.

The formula of liquid water is H₂O.

Calcium Oxide reacts with water and forms Calcium Hydroxide. The Chemical equation is shown below.

CaO + H₂O --> Ca(OH)₂.

This is a Synthesis reaction because Ca(OH)₂ is synthesized by using Calcium Oxide and water.

The product of this reaction is calcium hydroxide, also known as slaked lime.

Thus, when calcium oxide reacts with water, slaked lime is produced.  

Calcium oxide is also known as lime and is most commonly used for many purposes. It can be used for pH correction of water or for its disinfection (with excess lime).

How much heat is required to warm 1.50L of water from 25.0C to 100.0C? (Assume a density of 1.0g/mL for the water.)
Masteriza [31]

<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat required to warm given amount of water is 470.9 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of water, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of water = 1 g/mL

Volume of water = 1.50 L = 1500 mL    (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{1500mL}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(1g/mL\times 1500mL)=1500g

To calculate the heat absorbed by the water, we use the equation:

q=mc\Delta T

where,

q = heat absorbed

m = mass of water = 1500 g

c = heat capacity of water = 4.186 J/g°C

\Delta T = change in temperature = T_2-T_1=(100-25)^oC=75^oC

Putting values in above equation, we get:

q=1500g\times 4.186J/g^oC\times 75^oC=470925J=470.9kJ

Hence, the amount of heat required to warm given amount of water is 470.9 kJ

How many moles of Carbon are in 3.06 g of Carbon
natta225 [31]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.255 \ mol \ C }}

Explanation:

If we want to convert from grams to moles, the molar mass is used. This is the mass of 1 mole. They are found on the Periodic Table as the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).

Look up the molar mass of carbon.

  • Carbon (C): 12.011 g/mol

Set up a ratio using the molar mass.

\frac {12.011 \ g \ C}{ 1 \ mol \ C}

Since we are converting 3.06 grams to moles, we multiply by that value.

3.06 \ g \ C*\frac {12.011 \ g \ C}{ 1 \ mol \ C}

Flip the ratio. This way, the ratio is still equivalent, but the units of grams of carbon cancel.

3.06 \ g \ C* \frac{1 \ mol \ C}{12.011 \ g\ C}                      

3.06 * \frac{1 \ mol \ C}{12.011 }    

\frac {3.06}{12.011 } \ mol \ C                                

0.25476646 \ mol \ C

The original measurement of grams (3.06) has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place.

  • 0.25476646

The 7 in the ten-thousandth place tells us to round the 4 up to a 5.

0.255 \ mol \ C

3.06 grams of carbon is approximately <u>0.255 moles of carbon.</u>

The human eye is a complex sensing device for visible light. The optic nerve needs a minimum of 2.0 × 10−17 J of energy to trigg
AveGali [126]
Number of photons can be calculated by dividing the needed energy by the energy per photon.

The minimum energy needed is given as 2 x 10^-17 joules
Energy per photon = hc / lambda where h is planck's constant, c is the speed of light and lambda is the wavelength
Energy per photon = (<span>6.626 x 10^-34 x 3 x 10^8) / (475 x 10^-9)
                              = 4.18 x 10^-19 J

number of photons = (2 x 10^-17) / (4.18 x 10^-19)
                               = 47.79 photons which is approximately 48 photons</span>
