Calcium carbonate can be decomposed by heating: CaCO3 - CaO + CO2

Chemistry
1 answer:
Galina-37 [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer: 13.888g

Explanation:

CaCO3 —> CaO + CO2

From the equation above, 1mole of CaCO3 produces 1mole of CaO. Since the answer is to be expressed in grams, let us covert this mole to grams. This is illustrated below:

MM of CaCO3 = 40 +12 + (16x3) = 40 + 12 + 48 = 100g/mol

MM of CaO = 40 + 16 = 56g/mol

From the equation,

100g of CaCO3 produced 56g CaO

Therefore, 24.8g of CaCO3 will produce Xg of CaO i.e

Xg of CaO = (24.8 x 56) / 100 = 13.888g

Therefore, the theoretical yield of CaO is 13.888g

As you move across the period on the periodic table what pattern can be described about the electron configurations?
xeze [42]

Answer:

Elements in the same period have same number of electronic shell and electron is increased by one in every coming element with in same electronic shell.

Explanation:

Consider the second period of periodic table. This period consist of eight elements lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine and neon.

Electronic configuration of lithium:

Li₃ = [He] 2s¹

Electronic configuration of beryllium:

Be₄ = [He] 2s²

Electronic configuration of boron:

B₅ = [He] 2s² 2p¹

Electronic configuration of carbon:

C₆ = [He] 2s² 2p²

Electronic configuration of nitrogen:

N₇ = [He] 2s² 2p³

Electronic configuration of oxygen:

O₈ = [He] 2s² 2p⁴

Electronic configuration of fluorine:

F₉ = [He] 2s² 2p⁵

Electronic configuration of neon:

Ne₁₀ = [He] 2s² 2p⁶

All these elements present in same period having same electronic shell and number of electron increased by 1.

Sulfur dioxide has a vapor pressure of 462.7 mm Hg at –21.0 °C and a vapor pressure of 140.5 mm Hg at –44.0 °C. What is the enth
stealth61 [152]

Answer : The value of \Delta H_{vap} is 28.97 kJ/mol

Explanation :

To calculate \Delta H_{vap} of the reaction, we use clausius claypron equation, which is:

\ln(\frac{P_2}{P_1})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{R}[\frac{1}{T_1}-\frac{1}{T_2}]

where,

P_1 = vapor pressure at temperature -21.0^oC = 462.7 mmHg

P_2 = vapor pressure at temperature -44.0^oC = 140.5 mmHg

\Delta H_{vap} = Enthalpy of vaporization = ?

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

T_1 = initial temperature = -21.0^oC=[-21.0+273]K=252K

T_2 = final temperature = 45^oC=[-41.0+273]K=232K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\ln(\frac{140.5mmHg}{462.7mmHg})=\frac{\Delta H_{vap}}{8.314J/mol.K}[\frac{1}{252}-\frac{1}{232}]\\\\\Delta H_{vap}=28966.6J/mol=28.97kJ/mol

Therefore, the value of \Delta H_{vap} is 28.97 kJ/mol

Calculate the molar mass for oxygen gas
Sladkaya [172]

For example, the atomic mass of an oxygen atom is 16.00 amu; that means the molar mass of an oxygen atom is 16.00 g/mol. Further, if you have 16.00 grams of oxygen atoms, you know from the definition of a mole that your sample contains 6.022 x 10^23 oxygen atoms.

What is the pressure in a gas container that is connected to an open-end U-tube manometer if the pressure of the atmosphere is 7
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The pressure in the gas is 656mmHg

Explanation:

In calculating the pressure of the gas;

step 1: convert the height of the mercury arm to mmHg

9.60cm = 96.0 mmHg

step 2: convert 752 torr to mmHg

I torr is 1 mmHg

752 torr = 752mmHg

Step 3: since the level of mercury in the container is higher than the level of mercury exposed to the atmosphere, we substrate the values to obtain our pressure.

So, 752mmHg - 96mmHg = 656mmHg

The pressure in the gas container is therefore 656mmHg.

N. B : if the mercury arm is in lower position, you add.
