Answer:

15.63 moles of HgO are needed to produce 250.0 g of O_{2}

Explanation:

According to given balanced equation, 1 mole of O_{2} is produced from 2 moles of HgO.

Number of moles =\frac{mass}{molar mass}

So 250 g of O_{2} =\frac{250}{32}moles O_{2}

So moles of HgO needed =2\times \frac{250}{32}moles HgO

                                                   =15.63 moles HgO

Phoenix [80]

Answer: Oil: covalent

Cornstarch: Covalent

Sodium chloride: Ionic

Sodium bicarbonate: Ionic

Explanation: Covalent compounds are formed by sharing of electrons between non metals whereas ionic compounds are formed by transfer of electrons from metals to non metals.

1. Oil, which is built from the nonmetals hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen: forms a covalent compound by sharing of electrons between non metals hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. Covalent compounds are insoluble in water.

2. Cornstarch, a carbohydrate consisting of hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen: forms a covalent compound by sharing of electrons between non metals hydrogen, carbon, and oxygen. Covalent compounds are insoluble in water.

3. Sodium chloride (table salt), whose formula is NaCl is formed by transfer of electrons from sodium to chlorine.Ionic compounds are soluble in water.

4. Sodium bicarbonate, whose formula is NaHCO_3 is formed by transfer of electrons from sodium to HCO_3.Ionic compounds are soluble in water.

ivanzaharov [21]
Answer: option <span>D. be given a positive charge produced by the movement of electrons to the other end of the ball.
</span>

Explanation:


This phenomenon is called electrostatic induction.


The excess of negative charge on the end of the rod will repel the electrons on the side of the pith ball that have been approached to it.

Then the electrons on the pith ball will move far away from this end with it will be left an excess of positive charge.

In this way the rod has induced that the ball acquires a positive charge on one end and a negative charge on the other end.

How do I balance these equations? Please explain so I can learn how.
labwork [276]

One mole of CS₂ and two moles of H₂S are formed as products and 3 moles of CH₄ are leftover.

<h3>What is the limiting reagent?</h3>

A limiting reagent is a reactant that is fully exhausted from the reaction mixture at the completion of a  reaction. The limiting reactant will decide the maximum amount of product.

Given, a balanced chemical equation of the reaction between methane and sulphur is:

CH_4 + 4S\longrightarrow CS_2 +2H_2S

Given, the number of moles of the sulphur = 4

The number of moles of methane = 4

From the chemical reaction, one mole of methane reacts with four moles of sulphur. Therefore, four moles of sulphur fully react with one mole of methane and three moles of methane leftover.
