Chemistry
1 answer:
meriva4 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Explanation:

Aqua regia is a strong and very concentrated acid formed by mixing Hydrochloric acid(HCl) and nitric acid.

The acid is very corrosive due to its formulation and it nearly reacts to dissolve all substances including the unreactive gold metal. It is formed by mixing the two acids in a proportion of 1:3, i.e HCl in 3 parts and nitric acid in 1 part.

The mixture dissolves a wide range of metals

a television remote control operates at 319 THz, what is the wavelength of the infrared light in nanometers?
AURORKA [14]

<u>Given:</u>

Frequency (ν) = 319 THz

<u>To determine:</u>

The wavelength corresponding to the given frequency

<u>Explanation:</u>

Wavelength (λ) and Frequency(ν) are related as:

λ = c/ν

where c = speed of light = 3*10⁸ m/s

Now:

SI unit of frequency is Hertz (Hz) also expressed as cycles per second

i.e 1 Hz = 1 s⁻¹

1 Terahertz (THz) = 10¹² Hz

therefore the given frequency ν = 319 *10¹² s⁻¹

λ = 3 * 10⁸ ms⁻¹/319 *10¹² s⁻¹ = 940 * 10⁻⁹ m

since 1 nanometer (nm) = 10⁻⁹ m

The wavelength is λ = 940 nm

Ans: The infrared wavelength = 940 nm

N2H4 + N2O4 --&gt; N2 + H2O
givi [52]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since this problem is incomplete, let us give a simple explanation to solve it.

In any reaction, we always have reactants that are in short supply and those that are in excess.

A reactant in short supply in a reaction is called the limiting reagent. This reactant will usually determine the extent of the reaction. When it is used up, the reaction will stop and will not proceed further.

To solve for the limiting reagent, convert the given mass to number of moles. Always work with number of moles.

Then write the balanced reaction equation.

Compare the moles from the balanced equation to that obtained. The reacting specie that is lesser in proportion is the limiting reagent

To solve the second part;

   Compare the number of moles of the limiting reactant to that of the product i.e H₂O;

Use this number of moles to find mass;

         Mass of H₂O = number of moles x molar mass
