The mass of oxygen gas is released in the reaction of decomposition  of magnesium oxide  6.4 grams

calculation

mass of oxygen=mass of  magnesium oxide -mass of magnesium produced

that is  16.12-9.72=6.4 grams

Sulfur dioxide gas (SO2) and oxygen gas (O2) react to form the liquid product of sulfur trioxide (SO3). How much sulfur dioxide
taurus [48]
1) Balanced chemical equation:

2SO2 (g) +  O2 (g) -> 2SO3 (l)

2) Molar ratios

2 mol SO2 : 1 mol O2 : 2 mol SO3

3) Convert 6.00 g O2 to moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

number of moles = 6.00 g / 32 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O2.

4) Use proportions with the molar ratios

=> 2 moles SO2 / 1 mol O2 = x / 0.1875 mol O2

=> x = 0.1875 mol O2 * 2 mol SO2 / 1 mol O2 = 0.375 mol SO2.

5) Convert 0.375 mol SO2 to grams

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass SO2 = 32 g/mol + 2*16 g/mol = 64 g/mol

=> mass SO2 = 0.375 mol * 64 g / mol = 24.0 g

Answer: 24.0 g of SO2 are needed to react completely with 6.00 g O2.

The picture shows a contractile vacuole of a unicellular freshwater organism. The contractile vacuole regulates the flow of wate
yuradex [85]

Answer:

A.The concentration of water is greater outside the cell than inside the cell.

Explanation:

The contractile vacuole of certain organisms functions to regulate water flow in and out of the cell. It does this by storing excess water that comes into the cell. In the case of this organism with a filled up contractile vacuole, it means water is flowing into the cell.

Naturally, water will flow into a living cell when an osmotic gradient i.e. difference in concemtration, has been created between intracellular and extracellular solutions. Osmosis involves movement of substances from a region of high water concentration to a region of low water concentration. This means that if water is flowing into the cell, which is stored by the contractile vacuole, the concentration of water must be greater outside the cell than inside.

At high pressures and moderate temperatures nitric oxide gas disproportionates rapidly according to the reaction 3NO(g) ⇌ N2O(g)
Pie

Answer:

3.8 x 10⁵

Explanation:

For the equilibrium :  3NO(g) ⇌ N2O(g) + NO2(g), the equilibrium constant in the terms of the concentrations of the gases in mol/L is

Kc = (NO) (N2O)/ (NO) ³   where (NO), (N2O) , (NO2) are the concentrations of the gases in mol/L . So

K= (x mol/ 1 L) (x mol/1L) / (7.5 x 10⁻⁶ mol /1 L) ³

x  = mol of NO and NO2 at equilibrium

we have that

K = x²/ 7.5 x 10⁻⁶ = 1.9 x 10¹⁶

x = √ (7.5 x 10⁻⁶ x  1.9 x 10¹⁶) = 3.8 x 10⁵

∴ (N2O) = 3.8 x 10⁵
