Answer is: mass of unused sulfur is 5.87 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: C + 2S → CS₂.

m(C) = 12.0 g; mass of carbon.

m(S) = 70.0 g; mass of sulfur.

n(C) = m(C) ÷ M(C).

n(C) = 12 g ÷ 12 g/mol.

n(C) = 1 mol; amount of substance.

n(S) = m(S) ÷ M(S).

n(S) = 70 g ÷ 32.065 g/mol.

n(S) = 2.183 mol.

From chemical reaction: n(C) : n₁(S) = 1 : 2.

n₁(S) = 1 mol · 2 = 2 mol.

Δn(S) = n(S) - n₁(S).

Δn(S) = 2.183 mol - 2 mol.

Δn(S) = 0.183 mol; amount of unused sulfur.

Δm(S) = 0.183 mol · 32.065 g/mol.

Δm(S) = 5.87 g.

Decide which element probably forms a compound with chlorine that has a chemical formula most and least similar to the chemical
Degger [83]

Answer:

Most similar - Lithium

Least similar - Phosphorus

Explanation:

Rubidium is an element in group 1A of the periodic table. It is a metal and forms an ionic compound with chlorine. The formula of the compound is RbCl.

If we look at the options, Lithium is also a group 1A element and forms an ionic compound with chlorine having the formula LiCl which is very much similar to RbCl chemically.

Phosphorus is a nonmetal. Its compounds with chlorine, PCl3 and PCl5 are covalent and does not resemble RbCl in any way.

What makes the shadow during a solar eclipse
Damm [24]
Well, if you have a light bulb (turned on) n u put a little gulf ball in front of it it will make a shadow.
In this case the light bulb is the Sun and the gulf ball is the Moon.
So the Moon causes the shadow because it covers the light.

I really hope my explanation helps you out!

The ph of 0.015 m hno2 (nitrous acid) aqueous solution was measured to be 2.63. what is the value of pka of nitrous acid?
Licemer1 [7]
Nitrous acid<span> dissociates as follows:
</span>
HNO₂(s) ⇄ H⁺(aq) + NO₂⁻(aq) 
           
According to the equation, an acid constant has the following form:

Ka = [H⁺] × [NO₂⁻ ] / [HNO₂] 

From pH, we can calculate the concentration of H⁺ and NO₂⁻:

[H⁺] = 10^-pH = 10^-2.63 = 0.00234 M = [NO₂⁻]

Now, the acid constant can be calculated:

Ka = 0.00234 x 0.00234 / 0.015  = 3.66 x 10⁻⁴

And finally,

pKa = -log Ka = 3.44

Concept Review<br> 14.11. Can a reaction that is not reversible achieve chemical equilibrium?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Chemical equilibrium is reached by the forward reaction rate equaling the reverse reaction rate. If the reaction is not reversible, this could not occur.

Put the following elements into five pairs of elements that have similar chemical reactivity: F, Sr, P, Ca, O, Br, Rb, Sb, Li, S
kirill115 [55]

Explanation:

Given elements:

  F, Sr, P, Ca, O, Br, Rb, Sb, Li, S

Elements with the same chemical reactivity will belong to the same group on the periodic table. This implies that elements in the same column will have the same reactivity;

  Li and Rb are both alkali metals in group 1

  Ca and Sr are both alkali earth metals in group 2

  F and Br are halogens in group 7

  O and S are group 6 elements

 P and Sb are both in group 5 on the periodic table

So these groupings show elements with the same chemical properties.
