Answer: The correct answer is option(A).

Explanation:

Regolith is defined as layer which is composed of heterogeneous, loose, uppermost deposits covering the solid rock. They complete different from soil. It includes dust, soil, broken rocks and other related material. They arenot only present on earth but on another terrestrial bodies also like : moon ,asteroids ,mars etc.

So, from the enlisted option the correct description of regolith is given by option(A). Hence, option(A) is correct.

During an investigation, a student burns magnesium to form magnesium oxide. The starting mass of magnesium is measured as 21.3 g
enot [183]

Answer:

Percentage yield = 85.2%

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Mg = 21.3 g

Actual yield of MgO = 30.2 g

Percentage yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO

Number of moles of Mg = mass/molar mass

Number of moles of Mg = 21.3 g / 24.3 g/mol

Number of moles of Mg = 0.88 mol

Now we will compare the moles of MgO with Mg.

                 Mg           :               MgO

                 2               :               2

                0.88             :             0.88

Mass of MgO:           

Mass of MgO= moles × molar mass

Mass of MgO= 0.88 mol × 40.3g/mol

Mass of MgO =  35.46 g

Actual yield of MgO = 30.2 g

Percentage yield:

Percentage yield = Actual yield/theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 30.2 g/ 35.46 g × 100

Percentage yield = 85.2%

The amount of heat required to convert H₂O to steam is :  382.62 kJ

<u>Given data :</u>

Mass of liquid water  ( m ) = 150 g

Temperature of liquid water = 43.5°C

Temperature of steam = 130°C

<h3 /><h3>Determine the amount of heat required </h3>

The amount of heat required = ∑ q1 + q2 + q3 ----- ( 1 )

where ;

q1 = heat required to change Temperature of water from 43.5°C to 100°C .  q2 = heat required to change liquid water at 100°C to steam at 100°C

q3 = heat required to change temperature of steam at 100°C to 130°C

  • For q1

M* S_{water}*ΔT

= 150 * 4.18 * ( 100 - 43.5 )

= 35425.5 J

  • For q2

moles * ΔHvap

= (150 / 18 )* 40.67 * 1000

=  338916.67 J

  • For q3

M * S_{steam} * ΔT

= 150 * 1.84 * ( 130 -100 )

= 8280 J

Back to equation ( 1 )

Amount of heat required = 35425.5  + 338916.67 + 8280 = 382622.17 J

                                                                                               ≈ 382.62 kJ

Hence we can conclude that The amount of heat required to convert H₂O to steam is :  382.62 kJ.
