Answer:
2HgO → 2Hg + O₂
The reaction is a decomposition reaction because from one reactant two products were obtained
Explanation:
The problem here involves balancing the chemical reaction given and also classifying the reaction.
The unbalanced expression is given as:
HgO → Hg + O₂
Assign the alphabets a,b and c as coefficients that will balance the equation
aHgO → bHg + cO₂
Conserving Hg: a = b
O: a = 2c
So, let c = 1, a = 2 b = 2
Therefore;
2HgO → 2Hg + O₂
The reaction is a decomposition reaction because from one reactant two products were obtained
I’m sorry I didn’t understand can you please add more details please thank you
It’s a liquid because it can form any shape to fit container but the amount of liquid always stayed the same unless dropped some.
Answer:
The volume is increased.
Explanation:
According to <em>Charles' Law</em>, " <em>at constant pressure the volume and temperature of the gas are directly proportional to each other</em>". Mathematically this law is presented as;
V₁ / T₁ = V₂ / T₂ -----(1)
In statement the data given is,
T₁ = 10 °C = 283.15 K ∴ K = 273.15 + °C
T₂ = 20 °C = 293.15 K
So, it is clear that the temperature is being increased hence, we will find an increase in volume. Let us assume that the starting volume is 100 L, so,
V₁ = 100 L
V₂ = Unknown
Now, we will arrange equation 1 for V₂ as,
V₂ = V₁ × T₂ / T₁
Putting values,
V₂ = 100 L × 293.15 K / 283.15 K
V₂ = 103.52 L
Hence, it is proved that by increasing temperature from 10 °C to 20 °C resulted in the increase of Volume from 100 L to 103.52 L.
