if a 1.85g mass of zinc produces 475 mL og gas and your balloon weighs 0.574 g and the room temperature is 20.5°C. calculate the

amount of zinc needed to produce enough gas to get your balloon airborne by adding 1 mL to the required balloon volume so that its density is less than that of the surrounding air.

<span>You will use an ideal gas equation here. Let us denote 'x' as the unknown sample of zinc if another 1 ml of it is added to make a total of 476mL gas. The ideal gas equation is PV = nRT. Assume atmospheric conditions and then substitute everything to the equation.

(1atm)(0.476L) = (1.85 + x)(0.08206 L-atm/mol-K)(20.5+273K)
x = 1.83 g of zinc</span>

A solution is 5.00% potassium chloride by mass. How much potassium chloride would you expect to collect by evaporating 150.0 g o
stepan [7]

Answer:

C. 7.50g

Explanation:

The percent (%) by mass of a solute in a solution refers to the number of grams contained in 100g of solution by that solute. In this case, 5% by mass of pottasium chloride (KCl) means 5g of KCl is contained in 100g of solution.

Therefore, in 150g of solution, there would be:

5g/100g × 150g

= 0.05 × 150

= 7.50g of KCl solute.

Hence, 7.50g of pottasium chloride would be expected to be collected by evaporating 150.0 g of the solution.

Can you describe the situations when Greek prefixes are used?
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

At the introductory level of chemistry, I can think of only two situations when you use Greek prefixes.

They indicate the number of atoms or groups in a molecule when you are naming a compound.

1. Binary covalent compounds

For example, P₂S₅ is diphosphorus pentasulfide.

2. Hydrates

For example, Na₂SO₄·10H₂O is sodium sulfate decahydrate.

How is CCl4 non polar?
Vinvika [58]
The four bonds of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4<span>) are </span>polar, but the molecule isnonpolar<span> because the bond polarity is canceled by the symmetric tetrahedral shape. When other atoms substitute for some of the Cl atoms, the symmetry is broken and the molecule becomes </span>polar

If you want to melt ice into liquid water, does the ice absorbs heat or release heat? Is this endothermic or exothermic?
kherson [118]

Answer:

Endothermic

Explanation:

This would be an endothermic reaction, due to the fact that the water would be signifigantly warmer then the ice cube, which causes it to melt.
