Karolina [17]3 years ago
8 0
Cataclysmic is an adjective used to describe something that is violently destructive. This word is often used in natural disasters like an earthquake, volcanic eruption, floods and tornado. But the use of this word is not limited to these events. It can also be used in emphasizing how something badly turned out.

A student collects 629ml of oxygen at 0.500at, the student collected 0.0337 moles. At what temperature did the student collect t
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

114 K

Explanation:

Given data

  • Volume of oxygen (V): 629 mL = 0.629 L
  • Pressure of oxygen (P): 0.500 atm
  • Moles of oxygen (n): 0.0337 mol
  • Temperature (T): ?

We can calculate the temperature at which the student collected the oxygen using the ideal gas equation.

P \times V = n \times R \times T\\T = \frac{P \times V}{n \times R}  = \frac{0.500atm \times 0.629L}{0.0337mol \times 0.0821atm.L/mol.K} = 114 K

The oxygen gas was collected at 114 K.

The concentration of ozone in ground-level air can be determined by allowing the gas to react with an aqueous solution of potass
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

a) 2KI + O₃ + H₂O ----> I₂ + O₂ + 2KOH

b) Ozone concentration = 0.246 ppb

Explanation:

a) The balanced equation for the reaction is

2KI + O₃ + H₂O ----> I₂ + O₂ + 2KOH

b) We first convert 17 μg of KI to number of moles

Number of moles = (mass)/(molar mass)

Molar mass of KI = 166 g/mol

Mass of KI that reacted = 17 μg = (17 × 10⁻⁶) g

Number of moles = (17 × 10⁻⁶)/166

Number of moles of KI that reacted = (1.0241 × 10⁻⁷) moles

From the stoichiometric balance of the reaction,

2 moles of KI reacts with 1 mole of O₃

Then, (1.0241 × 10⁻⁷) moles of KI will react with (1.0241 × 10⁻⁷ × 1/2) moles of O₃

Number of moles of O₃ that reacted = (5.12 × 10⁻⁸) moles.

To express the amount of O₃ in 10.0 L of air in ppb, we need to convert the amount of O₃ that reacted.

Mass = (number of moles) × (molar mass)

Molar mass of O₃ = 48 g/mol

Mass of O₃ that reacted = (5.12 × 10⁻⁸) × 48 = 0.0000024578 g = (2.46 × 10⁻⁶) g

Concentration in ppb = (Mass of solute in μg)/(volume of solution in L)

Mass of solute = Mass of O₃ = (2.46 × 10⁻⁶) g = 2.46 μg

Volume of solution = 10.0 L

Concentration of O₃ in air in ppb = 2.46/10 = 0.246 ppb

How can valence electrons be used to predict the type of compounds formed?
Alex17521 [72]
Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell. Those are t<span>he electrons on an atom that can be gained or lost in a chemical reaction.
</span>Elements that are left on the periodic table <span> have relatively few </span>valence electrons<span>, and can form ions  more easily by losing their </span>valence electrons<span> to form positively charged cations.</span>
<span>Nonmetals are further to the right on the periodic table, so they gain electrons relatively easily and lose them with difficulty. </span>

drek231 [11]

Answer:

A chemical change is a change in the chemical makeup of a substance and results in a new substance. Ice and water both have the same chemical makeup - ice is just a different state and has the same atoms but in an expanded form.
