Stalactites and stalagmites form as ________ precipitates out of the water evaporating in underground caves.
Group of answer choices
hydrochloric acid
sodium bicarbonate
calcium carbonate
sodium chloride
sodium hydroxide
Answer:
calcium carbonate
Explanation:
A stalactite is an icicle-looking mould that is formed by the precipitation of natural minerals as a result of water dripping from the ceiling, hanging from a cave.
A stalagmites in the other hand, grows upwards and is also a mound that is formed by the deposits of minerals gotten by the water dripping on the floor of a cave.
Therefore, stalactites and stalagmites form as calcium carbonate precipitates out of the water evaporating in underground caves.
Answer:
the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is 116 g
Explanation:
The computation of the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is shown below
As we know that
Mole = mass ÷ molar mass
where,
Moles be 2.9
And, we know that the molar mass of calcium be 40g/mol
Now put the values to the above formula
2.9 = Mass ÷ 40
So, the mass would be
= 40 × 2.9
= 116 g
Hence, the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is 116 g
Almost always oxidation,

Combustion equation of n-hexane:
2C₆H₁₄ + 19O₂ → 12CO₂ + 14H₂O
a)
Assuming we have 100 moles of air,
Oxygen = 20.9 moles
n-hexane required = 20.9/19 x 2
= 2.2 moles
LFL = Half of stoichometric amount = 2.2 / 2 = 1.1
LFL n-hexane = 1.1%
b)
1.1 volume percent required for LFL
1.1% x 1
= 0.0011 m³ of n-hexane required
