2. When heated above 500 ºC, potassium nitrate decomposes according to the equation below. 4KNO3 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2A.If oxygen is

AysviL [449]

Answer:

(a) The rate of formation of K2O is 0.12 M/s.

The rate of formation of N2 is also 0.12 M/s

(b) The rate of decomposition of KNO3 is 0.24 M/s

Explanation:

(a) From the equation of reaction, the mole ratio of K2O to O2 is 2:5.

Rate of formation of O2 is 0.3 M/s

Therefore, rate of formation of K2O = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s

Also from the equation of reaction, mole ratio of N2 to O2 is 2:5.

Rate of formation of N2 = (2×0.3/5) = 0.12 M/s

(b) From the equation of reaction, mole ratio of KNO3 to O2 is 4:5.

Therefore, rate of decomposition of KNO3 = (4×0.3/5) = 0.24 M/s

An atom has a mass number of 22 and an atomic number of 12. How many neutrons<br> does it have?

tia_tia [17]

Answer:

this isn't correct answer but the equation is correct by using this methid you can got your answer .

Explanation:

Given - Mass number of atom = 23

Atomic number of atom = 11

As, no. of electrons in an atom is equal to an atomic number of the element.

So, number of electrons = 11

Secondly , number of protons are equal to number of electrons.

so, number of protons = 11

And number of neutrons = mass number - atomic number = 23−11 = 12

so, number of neutrons = 12

So , the atom contains 11 protons, 11 electrons, 12 neutrons.

How many liters of h2 gas, collected over water at an atmospheric pressure of 752 mmhg and a temperature of 21.0°c, can be made

Shalnov [3]

The answer is V = 0.6 L

The explanation:

1- First we will get P (H) :

p (H) = p total - p (H2O)

= 752 mmHg - 18.65 mmHg

= 733 mmHg

= 733 mmHg X (1 atm / 760 atm) = 0.964 atm

2- then when the reaction equation is:

Zn(s)+2HCl(aq) -> H2(g)+ZnCl2(aq)

so, then 1 mole of Zn will produce 1 mole of H2.

so, we need to get first the mole of Zn:

mole Zn = mass / molar mass

= 1.566g / 65.38g/mol

= 0.02395mol

∴ 0.02395 mol of Zn will produce 0.02395 mol of H2

by using the ideal gas equation we can get the volume V :

when :

PV = nRT

when T is the temperature = 21 + 273 = 294 K

and R is the ideal gas constant = 0.0821 L atm /K mol

and n is the number of moles = 0.2395 mol

and P is the pressure = 0.964 atm

so, by substitution:

V = (0.02395 moles H2)(0.0821 L atm / K mole)(294 K) / (0.964 atm)

= 0.6 L
