ANSWERS:

Group 2 metal carbonates, nitrates and hydroxides decompose to heat to give the corresponding metal oxide and release CO2, NO2 and O2, and H2O respectively. The thermal stability increases down the group as theionic character of the compounds increases down the group.

How many molecules are in 2.38g of SO2

Murrr4er [49]

2.63 x 10^22 molecules of SO2.

To find this, start with what you know.

2.38g of SO2.

You need to first convert this into Moles since you cannot directly convert grams into molecules. In order to convert grams to moles, you need to find the molecular mass of SO2 - 64.066.

This is because Sulfur has the mass of 32.066 and Oxygen has a mass of 16, but since there are two Oxygen atoms, it's going to be 32.

Your equation should currently appear as so:

2.38g of SO2 = 1 Mole of SO2 / 64.066

Now, you need to convert this to molecules.

Whenever you are searching for molecules without a given amount, you always use Avogadro's number: 6.02 x 10^23

Now, your equation should appear as so:

2.38g SO2 = 1 Mole of SO2 / 64.066 next to a new fraction which is 6.02 x 10^23 / 1 Mole of SO2

Now, multiply across (2.38 x 1 x 6.02 x 10^23). When using Avogadro's number, don't forget to place parenthesis around it.

Then, divide that number by the bottom: 64.066.

Thus, your final answer is that there is 2.63 x 10^22 molecules of SO2.

Don't forget your units!

Hope this helps!

If the pressure on a 1.04 L sample of gas is doubled at constant temperature, please compute the new volume of gas: __

natulia [17]

Answer:

0.52 L.

Explanation:

Let P be the initial pressure.

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial pressure (P1) = P

Initial volume (V1) = 1.04 L

Final pressure (P2) = double the initial pressure = 2P

Final volume (V2) =?

The new volume (V2) of the gas can be obtained by using the the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P1V1 = P2V2

P × 1.04 = 2P × V2

1.04P = 2P × V2

Divide both side by 2P

V2 = 1.04P /2P

V2 = 0.52 L

Thus, the new volume of the gas is 0.52 L.

Consider dissolving sugar in water and magnesium sulfate in water. is any new substance being produced? what happens after sodiu

Olenka [21]

Answer:

Here's what I get

Explanation:

1. Sugar

(a) Dissolving in water

The white solid dissolves in water to give a colourless solution. There is no evidence that a new substance is being produced.

(b) Addition of sodium hydroxide

Adding the colourless solution of sodium hydroxide to the colourless sugar solution gives a colourless solution. There is no evidence that a new substance is being produced.

2. Magnesium sulfate

(a) Dissolving in water

The colourless crystals dissolve in water to give a colourless solution. There is no evidence that a new substance is being produced.

(b) Addition of sodium hydroxide

Adding the colourless solution of sodium hydroxide to the colourless solution of magnesium sulfate gives a white precipitate (see image). This is evidence that a new substance is being produced.
