The steel in nail contains iron. Oxygen and water react with the iron to form rust. (oxidation i believe. i may be wrong) 
Minerals in rocks undergo chemical changes when they react with water and air. is the breakdown of rocks by chemical reactions that change the rocks' makeup, or composition.

What volume of nitrogen gas at STP is produced when 68.2 g of trinitrotoluene, C7H5(NO2)3 reacts?
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

10.07 L is the volume for the produced N₂

Explanation:

This is a question for the Ideal Gases Equation:

P . V = n . R . T

In STP conditions, the pressure is 1 atm and the T° is 273K

Let's determine the moles of produced N₂  by the decomposition of TNT

The reaction is:

2 C₇H₅(NO₂)₃ (s) → 7 C (s) + 7 CO (g) + 3 N₂ (g) + 5 H₂O (g)

We convert the mass to moles (mass / molar mass)

68.2 g . 1 mol / 227.13 g = 0.300 moles

Ratio is 2:3. 2 moles of TNT can produce 3 moles of N₂

Then, 0.300 moles will produce (0.300 . 3) / 2 = 0.450 moles

We replace data:

1 atm . V = 0.450 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273K

V = (0.450 mol . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 273K) / 1 atm

V = 10.07 L

Choose the correct total number of electron domains (bonding and nonbonding) about a central atom if the angle(s) between the el
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The central atom has 3 electron domains.

Explanation:

According to the Valence Shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) put forward by Gillespie and Nyholm in 1957, the shape of a molecule is determined by repulsion between all the electron pairs (electron domains) present in the valence shell.

The electron pairs or electron domains are known to position themselves as far apart in space as possible in order to minimize repulsions.

Hence, when the central atom of a molecule contains three electron domains, they are positioned at an angle of 120° from each other to minimize repulsions. Hence the answer.
