A student attempted to identify an unknown compound by the method used in the experiment. She found that when she heated the sam

ple weighing 0.4862g, the mass barely changed, dropping to 0.4855g. When the product was converted to a chloride, the mass went up to 0.5247g. Is the sample a carbonate? What are the two compounds that might be the unknown?

Answer:

The sample is a carbonate.

The unknown samples are Na2CO3 and K2CO3.

Explanation:

Let's assume ,the sample is Na2CO3.

Na2CO3 produces 2 moles of NaCl via formation of Na2O

Number of moles of NaCO3= 0.48262g/106gmol= 4.586×10^-3mol

Mass of NaCl= 2(4.586×10^-3)×58.5=0.536g

Let's assume the sample is K2CO3

K2CO3 produces2 moles of KCl

Number of moles of K2CO3= 0.4862g/138.21gmol

Number of moles= 3.517×10^-3mol

Mass of KCl formed= 2(3.517×10^-3)×74.55=0.5246g

Na2CO3 + 2Cl- ⇒ 2NaCl + CO3^-2 
<span>
1 mole of Na2CO3 = 106 g </span>
<span>2 moles of NaCl     = 2 x 58.4
                               = 116.8 g 
</span>Na2CO3 would increase by 116.8 / 106 = 1.10 to form 2NaCl.
<span>0.4862 g x 1.10 = 0.515 grams of NaCl.
</span>
K2CO3 + 2Cl- ⇒ 2KCl + CO3^-2 
<span>1 mole of K2CO3 = 138.2 g </span>
<span>2 moles of KCl = 149.1 </span>
<span>
K2CO3 would increase by </span>149.1 /138.2 = 1.079 <span>to form 2KCl
</span>
<span> 0.4862 x 1.079 = 0.5246 g</span>

A sound wave is traveling at 331 m/s and has a frequency of 126 Hz. What is the wavelength?​
damaskus [11]
<h2>Answer</h2>

2.626984127 m

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

You have to know the equation that relates wavelength, frequency, and velocity (it's like speed but a bit different).

v = f x λ

where:

v = velocity

f = frequency

λ = Wavelength

Rearrange to make λ subject:

λ = v / f

We've been given 331 as the speed, 126 as the frequency. Sub it into the equation:

331 / 126 = 2.626984127 m

Which phrase best describes the light that plants transform into chemical energy by the process of photosynthesis?
Fed [463]

Answer:

C. red and blue light

Explanation:

Photosynthesis:

It is the process in which in the presence of sun light and chlorophyll by using carbon dioxide and water plants produce the oxygen and glucose.

Carbon dioxide + water + energy →   glucose + oxygen

water is supplied through the roots, carbon dioxide collected through stomata and sun light is capture by chlorophyll.  The light absorbed by chlorophyll is blue and red light and reflect the green light.

Chemical equation:

6H₂O + 6CO₂ + energy  →   C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

it is known from balanced chemical equation that 6 moles of carbon dioxide react with the six moles of water and created one mole of glucose and six mole of oxygen.
