The chemical equation without coefficients is:


Ca + CO2 + O2 --------> Ca CO3


You can balance that equation by trial an error.


This is the chemical equation balanced:


2Ca + 2CO2 + O2 --------> 2Ca CO3


Count the atoms on each side to check the balance


Atom    Left side         right side

Ca         2                     2 

C           2                     2

O          2*2 + 2 = 6       2*3 = 6


Then those are the coefficients:

a0 = 2

a1 = 2

a2 = 1

a3 = 2

In an experiment, 2.54 grams of copper completely reacts with sulfur, producing 3.18 grams of copper(I) sulfide.
kozerog [31]

Answer:

               0.64 g of S

Solution:

               The balance chemical equation is as follow,

                                           2 Cu + S ----> Cu₂S

According to equation,

                        127 g (2 mole) Cu produces = 159 g (1 mole) of Cu₂S

So,

                                 2.54 g Cu will produce = X g of Cu₂S

Solving for X,

                     X = (2.54 g * 159 g) / 127 g

                     X = 3.18 g of Cu₂S

Now, it is confirmed that the reaction is 100% ideal. Therefore,

As,

                       127 g (2 mole) Cu required = 32 g (1 mole) of S

So,

                                2.54 g Cu will require = X g of S

Solving for X,

                      X = (2.54 g * 32 g) / 127 g

                      X = 0.64 g of S

In which way would a drought affect how rodents get their energy?
love history [14]

Answer:

<h3>When a drought occurs, their food supply can shrink and their habitat can be damaged. ... Losses or destruction of fish and wildlife habitat. Lack of food and drinking water for wild animals. Increase in disease in wild animals, because of reduced food and water supplies.</h3><h3>While insects and cacti might provide a meagre supply of water, most desert animals survive by being what Price calls "water misers". ... To perform this feat, they have evolved specialized kidneys with extra microscopic tubules for extracting water from urine.</h3>

Answer:

Rubidium-85=61.2

Rubidium-87=24.36

Atomic Mass=85.56 amu

Explanation:

To find the atomic mass, we must multiply the masses of the isotope by the percent abundance, then add.

<u>Rubidium-85 </u>

This isotope has an abundance of 72%.

Convert 72% to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal two places to the left.

  • 72/100= 0.72      or        72.0 --> 7.2 ---> 0.72

Multiply the mass of the isotope, which is 85, by the abundance as a decimal.

  • mass * decimal abundance= 85* 0.72= 61.2

Rubidium-85=61.2

<u>Rubidium-87</u>

This isotope has an abundance of 28%.

Convert 28% to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal two places to the left.

  • 28/100= 0.28       or        28.0 --> 2.8 ---> 0.28

Multiply the mass of the isotope, which is 87, by the abundance as a decimal.

  • mass * decimal abundance= 87* 0.28= 24.36

Rubidium-87=24.36

<u>Atomic Mass of Rubidium:</u>

Add the two numbers together.

  • Rb-85 (61.2) and Rb-87 (24.36)
  • 61.2+24.36=85.56 amu
