Answer:

Protons have a much larger volume than neutrons.

Explanation:

Protons have a slightly smaller mass than neutrons.

Protons have a positive charge.

Protons and neutrons make up the nucleus.

onsider the following reaction: CaCN2 + 3 H2O → CaCO3 + 2 NH3 105.0 g CaCN2 and 78.0 g H2O are reacted. Assuming 100% efficiency

mestny [16]

Answer : The excess reactant is, $H_2O$

The leftover amount of excess reagent is, 7.2 grams.

Solution : Given,

Mass of $CaCN_2$ = 105.0 g

Mass of $H_2O$ = 78.0 g

Molar mass of $CaCN_2$ = 80.11 g/mole

Molar mass of $H_2O$ = 18 g/mole

Molar mass of $CaCO_3$ = 100.09 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $CaCN_2$ and $H_2O$ .

$\text{ Moles of }CaCN_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }CaCN_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }CaCN_2}=\frac{105.0g}{80.11g/mole}=1.31moles$

$\text{ Moles of }H_2O=\frac{\text{ Mass of }H_2O}{\text{ Molar mass of }H_2O}=\frac{78.0g}{18g/mole}=4.33moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$CaCN_2+3H_2O\rightarrow CaCO_3+2NH_3$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $CaCN_2$ react with 3 mole of $H_2O$

So, 1.31 moles of $CaCN_2$ react with $1.31\times 3=3.93$ moles of $H_2O$

From this we conclude that, $H_2O$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $CaCN_2$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Left moles of excess reactant = 4.33 - 3.93 = 0.4 moles

Now we have to calculate the mass of excess reactant.

$\text{ Mass of excess reactant}=\text{ Moles of excess reactant}\times \text{ Molar mass of excess reactant}(H_2O)$

$\text{ Mass of excess reactant}=(0.4moles)\times (18g/mole)=7.2g$

Thus, the leftover amount of excess reagent is, 7.2 grams.

What happens to the speed of motion of the particles of a gas when a certain volume of the gas is heated at constant pressure? E

Vitek1552 [10]

As the gas is heated, the particles will begin to move faster. Likewise if you start to cool a gas, the particles will move slower. Because the gas remains at a constant pressure and volume, the particles cannot spread out so they simply move around the container even faster.

Hope this helps :)

Arrange the molecules H2O, NH3, Ar, NaCl in order of expected increasing boiling points. 1. None of these 2. NaCl, H2O, NH3, Ar

Aleks04 [339]

Answer:

Option (4) is correct

Explanation:

NaCl is an ionic solid. $Na^{+}$ and $Cl^{-}$ ions are held together by strong coloumbic attractive force. Hence NaCl has highest boiling point'
Ar is a monoatomic molecule. Hence only weak london dispersion force exists between Ar atom/molecules. Hence it requires lowest amount of energy to boil and thereby possess lowest boiling point.
$NH_{3}$ and $H_{2}O$ are polar protic molecules. Hence they possess london dispersion force, dipole-dipole force and hydrogen bonding as intermolecular forces.
Dipole-dipole force is stronger in $H_{2}O$ than $NH_{3}$ due to more polar O-H bond than N-H bond. Also molecular weight of $H_{2}O$ is higher than $NH_{3}$ . So, more energy is required to boil $H_{2}O$ . So, $H_{2}O$ has higher boiling point than $NH_{3}$

Hence order of boiling point : $NaCl>H_{2}O>NH_{3}>Ar$

How are minute and seconds are related to degrees

jekas [21]

These minutes are further divided into sixty parts called seconds. The words minute and second used in this context have no immediate connection to how those words are usually used as amounts of time. In a full circle there are 360 degrees. Each degree is split up into 60 parts, each part being 1/60 of a degree.

No then contact me about that

When aqueous solutions of potassium cyanide and hydrobromic acid are mixed, an aqueous solution of potassium bromide and hydrocy

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

hey there

Explanation:

CN- (aq) + H+ (aq) → HCN(I)

The reactants are aqueous solutions:

NaCN(aq) and HBr(aq)

When you mix these compounds you make pure HCN (I)

The molecular equation is:

NaCN(aq) + HBr(aq) → NaBr(aq) + HCN(I)

When you dissociate the reactants, you have: Nat(aq) +CN¯(aq) + H*(aq) + Br−(aq) → Nat(aq) + ->

Br (aq) + HCN(I)

Sodium bromide, it is a salt, that can also be

dissociated in the solution

To make, the net ionic equation you remove the repeated ions

CN- (aq) + H+ (aq) → HCN(I)
