S + O2 → SO2 
<span>z / (32.0655 g S/mol) x (1 mol SO2 / 1 mol S) x (64.0638 g SO2/mol) = (1.9979 z) g SO2 </span>

<span>C + O2 → CO2 </span>
<span>(9.0-z) / (12.01078 g C/mol) x (1 mol CO2 / 1 mol C) x (44.00964 g CO2/mol) = (32.9776 - 3.66418 z) g CO2 </span>

<span>Add the two masses of SO2 and CO2 and set them equal to the amount given in the problem: </span>
<span>(1.9979 z) + (32.9776 - 3.66418 z) = 27.9 </span>
<span>Solve for z algebraically: </span>
<span>z = 3.0 g S</span>

<span>In the field of science, usually, the product of an experiment is computed ahead to understand if it reached a specific objective. It would reach greater than 100% of percent yield if the factors include faster reaction rates; proper handling of the reactants, no outside contaminants, and the procedure of the experiment is followed smoothly. It would reach lesser than 100% percent yield if the experiment is not followed, external factors such as contamination from the environment (wind, moisture, etc). </span>

AlladinOne [14]

Answer is: because they were using simple chemical reactions to transform elements, but that is possible only with nuclear reactions, which in that time were not possible to conduct.

Nuclear reactions can produce new elements, because number of protons and neutrons is changed, lead and gold have different atomic and mass numbers.

The electrons of an atom participates in a chemical reaction, chemical reactions involve the rearrangement of electrons, because there is transfer, loss, gain and sharing of electrons in chemical reactions, new elements are not formed.

Plz help ASAP. thx for you answers​ ALGEBRA 2 sorry
iren [92.7K]

So, the answer to 27.) would be <em>2x.</em> Both 6x and 2x can be divided by 2x, but they can't go any higher without the end-answer becoming a fraction. As such, 2x is the greatest common factor.

For 28.), x and x^2 can't be like terms, since like terms have the same variable and exponent :)

Hope I could help!
