Answer:

The mass of iodine produced will be 79.46 kg .

Explanation:

Let us calculate the mole ratio of potassium and iodine formed when first sample was decomposed.

Atomic mass of potassium =39 g/mol

Atomic mass of iodine = 127 g/mol

Moles of K produced = \frac{mass}{atomicmass}=\frac{13}{39}= 0.33

Moles of I produced =  \frac{mass}{atomicmass}=\frac{42.3}{127}= 0.33

The mole ration of K :I = 1:1

The moles of K produced by second sample = \frac{mass}{molarmass}=\frac{24.4X10^{3}}{39}= 0.626X10^{3} mol

The same moles of I must have been produced.

The mass of Iodine produced = moles X atomic mass = 0.626  X 127=79.46 kg

const2013 [10]

Answer: 4KO_2+2CO_2\rightarrow 2K_2CO_3+3O_2

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced chemical equation for reaction of potassium superoxide  with carbon dioxide to produce oxygen and potassium carbonate will be:

4KO_2+2CO_2\rightarrow 2K_2CO_3+3O_2

Why is earth's surface warmer in the northern hemisphere when it is summer there
RideAnS [48]
 <span>By definition, summer is the portion of the year in which the hemisphere is tilted toward the sun, so that sunlight strikes the surface more directly. When it is summer in the northern hemisphere, it is winter in the southern hemisphere, and vice versa</span>

Cite two important quantum-mechanical concepts associated with the Bohr model of the atom.(b) Cite two important additional refi
Alenkinab [10]

Answer: Bohr postulated that electronic energy levels are quantized. Secondly, a photon of light of a particular frequency is emitted when electrons move from a higher to a lower energy levels.

Explanation:

The Bohr model of the atom is the immediate predecessor of the wave mechanical model of the atom. The wave mechanical model refined the Bohr's model by treating the electron as a wave having a wave function psi. The wave function describes the identity of the electron. From Heisenberg uncertainty principle, the position of a particle cannot be accurately and precisely measured. Hence the wave mechanical model added that electrons are not localized in orbits according to Bohr's model but the integral of psi squared dx gives the probability of finding the electron within a given space.
