Answer:

FeCl_{3}

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

mass of Fe = 55.85 g

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol

<u>Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1</u>

mass of Cl = 106.5 g

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3

Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:

1 : 3

The empirical formula is = FeCl_{3}

A graph with horizontal axis time (seconds) and vertical axis position (meters). An orange line runs straight upward from 0 seco
OLga [1]

Answer:

Let's start by using the definition of acceleration. Acceleration is defined as the change in velocity over the change in time. In equation, that would be Δvelocity/Δtime. Based on the axes of the given graph, it shows the trend of position over time. So, the slope of the line and the curve shows the change of position over change of time, Δdistance/Δtime. In physics, this is the definition of speed or velocity. So, Maia is incorrect. Both curves show the speed or velocity of the object, and not acceleration.  If the graph used a y-axis of velocity instead of position, then only at that instance, would be Maia be correct.

The difference between the two is, the straight line shows constant velocity while the curve line shows changing velocity.

What important points do you need to remember about combustion?
goldenfox [79]

Explanation:

A substance burning in the presence of oxygen and leads to the formation of heat and light is called combustion.

Some important points about combustion are as follows:

  • Fuel should be present for burning.
  • Air should be present for the supply of oxygen.
  • There should be heat (or ignition temperature) to initiate the chemical reaction.

Silver nitrate reacts with calcium to make calcium nitrate and silver. The reaction is exothermic and produces 18.7 kJ/mol of en
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

1.63 kilo Joules of energy will be produced when 14.8 g of silver nitrate react.

Explanation:

AgNO_3+Ca\rightarrow Ag+CaNO_3,\Delta H_{rxn}=-18.7 kJ/mol

Mass of silver nitrate = 14.8 g

Moles of silver nitrate = \frac{14.8 g}{170 g/mol}=0.08706 mol

According to reaction, when 1 mole of silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of calcium it gives 18.7 kJ of heat.

Then amount of heat released when 0.08706 moles of silver nitrate reacts :

0.08706\times 18.7 kJ=1.628 kJ\approx 1.63 kJ

1.63 kilo Joules of energy will be produced when 14.8 g of silver nitrate react.
