Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.98 g of H₂

Explanation:

Data

mass of H₂ = ?

mass of Zn = 31.8 g

Balanced chemical reaction

Zn + H₂SO₄ ⇒ ZnSO₄ + H₂

Process

1.- Calculate the molar mass or atomic mass of Zinc and hydrogen

The Atomic mass of zinc = 65 g

The Molar mass of H₂ = 2 g

2.- Use proportions and cross multiplication to find the mass of H₂ formed.

65 g of Zn ----------------- 2 g of H₂

31.8 g of Zn -------------- x

x = (31.8 x 2) / 65

x = 63.6/65

-Result

x = 0.98 g of H₂

Answer: I would go with B

Explanation: The motor in a circuit isn't moving. That's very vague, but it doesn't show any evidence that an electrical current is going through it, likewise it doesn't show that an electrical current ISN'T going through it. However in regards to this question I would go with B.

Consider the following reaction:

NeX [460]

For the given reaction, according to the Law of Conservation of Energy, the energy required to decompose Hcl and produce $H_{2}+c l_{2}$ are equal.

Answer: Option C

Explanation:

According to law of conservation's of energy, energy can only be transferred from reactants to product side. So in this process, it is stated that 185 kJ of energy will be needed to decompose it. So that 185 kJ of energy will be getting transferred to produce the creation of hydrogen and chloride in the product side.

So if we see from the reactants side, the energy of 185 kJ is required for decomposition of hydrogen chloride. Similarly, if we see from the product side, the 185 kJ utilized for decomposition is transferred as energy required to create hydrogen and chlorine atoms. This statement will be in accordance with the law of conservation's of energy.

PLSSS HELP MEE 100 POINTS!!!!!!! How many atoms of each element does magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2, contain? Magnesium = 1 atom,

Basile [38]

It would be Magnesium = 1 atom, Oxygen = 2 atoms, Hydrogen = 2 atoms. It has 5 atoms total. There is 1 magnesium and you multiply each element by the the 2 outside the parenthesis to get 2 oxygen and 2 hydrogen.

In the early 1960s, radioactive strontium-90 was released during atmospheric testing of nuclear weapons and got into the bones o

Advocard [28]

Answer:

52.54 %

Explanation:

Half life = 29 years

$t_{1/2}=\frac {ln\ 2}{k}$

Where, k is rate constant

So,

$k=\frac {ln\ 2}{t_{1/2}}$

$k=\frac {ln\ 2}{29.0}\ {years}^{-1}$

The rate constant, k = 0.023902 hour⁻¹

From 1964 to 1991:

Time = 27 years

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

$[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}$

Where,

$[A_t]$ is the concentration at time t

$[A_0]$ is the initial concentration

So,

$\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-0.023902\times 27}$

$\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=0.5245$

The strontium-90 remains in the bone = 52.54 %

Which question cannot be answered by science?

Bumek [7]

Hi!

The question that science cannot answer is any question which is opinionated. It cannot have one true answer because it is simply subjective.

Other examples would be any question which cannot successfully follow the scientific method.

So, in the case of the question - the answer is going to be whichever question is opinionated. Just as a hint, not everyone thinks endangered animals should be protected.

Hopefully, this helps! =)
