What is one major difference between volcanic activity on Earth and volcanic activity on Mars, Venus, and the moon? Explain.

1 answer:

8 0

While the Moon and Mercury have relatively small volcanoes, those on Venus, Earth and Mars are large and numerous. Earth's volcanoes are still active and Venus' may be, but scientists debate whether Mars' volcanic activity has finished.

Write a full chemical equation for the reactions between magnesium and sulfuric acid

melamori03 [73]

Answer:

magnesium + hydrochloric acid → hydrogen gas + magnesium chloride

explanation:

the nitrogen in HNO3 is in the +5 oxidation state and is easily reduced. The reduction would result in the oxidation of the hydrogen gas, forming the water once again.The sulfur in H2SO4 is also in its highest oxidation state, +6.

Hope this helps :)

Draw the condensed structural formula for the ester formed when each of the following reacts with methyl alcohol:

Vikki [24]

Answer:

1) HCOOCH3

2) CH3CH2COOCH3

3) CH3CH2CH2CH(CH3)COOCH3

Explanation:

In the reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid, an ester and water are formed. It is analogous to the inorganic neutralization reaction but this reaction is called esterification in organic chemistry. Esters contain the general formula RCOOR where the RCOO moiety was obtained from the acid and the other R moiety was obtained from the alcohol. The -COOR shows the ester linkage in the molecule. The condensed structural formulas shown in the answer reflects these facts.

If a 2.50 liter container is filled with Ne gas at a pressure of 650 mm Hg and at 25°C, what mass of Ne is in the container?

seraphim [82]

Answer:

1.76 g is the mass of Ne is in the container.

Explanation:

We use the equation given by ideal gas which follows:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P = pressure of the gas = 650 mm Hg

V = Volume of the gas = 2.50 L

T = Temperature of the gas = $25^oC=[25+273]K=298K$

R = Gas constant = $62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

n = number of moles of Ne gas = ?

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$650mmHg\times 2.50L=n\times 62.3637\text{ L.mmHg }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\n=\frac{650\times 2.50}{62.3637\times 298}=0.0874mol$

Also, molar mass of Ne = 20.1797 g/mol

So, $Mass = Moles\times Molar\ mass = 0.0874\times 20.1797 g = 1.76\ g$

1.76 g is the mass of Ne is in the container.

How you find a unknown element (just with the atomic emission spectrum)

Sliva [168]

Each natural element has a characteristic light spectrum that helps identify it in samples of unknown substances. Spectroscopy is the practice of examining spectra and comparing them to those of known elements. Using spectroscopy methods, scientists can identify pure substances or compounds and the elements in them.
