Answer:

A) 3.17 g of Zn

Explanation:

Let's consider the reduction of Zn(II) that occurs in an electrolysis bath.

Zn⁺²(aq) + 2e⁻ → Zn(s)

We can establish the following relations:

  • 1 min = 60 s
  • 1 A = 1 C/s
  • The charge of 1 mole of electrons is 96,468 C (Faraday's constant).
  • When 2 moles of electrons circulate, 1 mole of Zn is deposited.
  • The molar mass of Zn is 65.38 g/mol

The mass of Zn deposited under these conditions is:

24min \times \frac{60s}{1min} \times \frac{6.5C}{s} \times \frac{1mol\ e^{-} }{96,468C} \times \frac{1molZn}{2mol\ e^{-}}  \times \frac{65.38g}{1molZn} = 3.17 g

Give the nuclide symbol for an atom that has<br> mass number 64 and 35 neutrons.
azamat
The mass number represents the summation of the number of protons and the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom.
We are given that the mass number is 64 and that the number of neutrons is 35. Therefore:
number of protons = 64 - 35 = 29 protons

In ground state, number of protons in an atom is equal to the number of electrons. Therefore,
number of electrons = 29 electron

Using the periodic table, we will find that the element that has 29 electrons in ground state is copper.
The nuclide symbol of copper is shown in the attached image.

For the reaction co(g)+2h2(g)&lt;-&gt;ch3oh(g) at 700. k, equilibrium concentrations are [h2] = 0.072 m, [co] = 0.020 m, and [ch
SVETLANKA909090 [29]
The balanced equation for the reaction is
CO(g) + 2H₂(g) ⇄ CH₃<span>OH(g)

Since given concentrations are at equilibrium state, the expression for the equilibrium constant, k can be written as
   k = [</span>CH₃OH(g)] / [CO(g)] [H₂(g) ]²

By substitution,
   k = 0.030 M / 0.020 M x (<span>0.072 M</span>)²
   k = 289.35 M⁻²

Methanol, CH3OH, is the simplest of the alcohols. It is synthesized by the reaction of hydrogen and carbon monoxide. Write chemi
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The limiting reactant is H₂

Explanation:

The reaction of hydrogen (H₂) and carbon monoxide (CO) to produce methanol (CH₃OH) is the following:

2H₂(g) + CO(g) → CH₃OH(g)

From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that 1 mol of CO reacts wIth 2 moles of H₂. So, the stoichiometric ratio is:

2 mol H₂/1 mol CO = 2.0

We have 500 mol of CO and 750 mol of H₂, so we calculate the ratio to establish a comparison:

750 mol H₂/500 mol CO = 1.5

Since 2.0 > 1.5, we have fewer moles of H₂ than are needed to completely react with 500 moles of CO. In fact, we need 1000 moles of H₂ and we have 750 moles. So, the limiting reactant is H₂.

balance the reaction equation describing the biological formation of glucose (c6h12o6) with the lowest set of whole number coeff
Ivan

The given reaction equation for photosynthesis whereby, in the presence of light energy from the Sun and chlorophyll, plants synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide and water.  As water is present as a reactant, it doesn’t also appear on the ’products’ side of the equation. So:

Water + carbon dioxide > glucose + oxygen.

As glucose contains 6 carbon atoms, these must be obtained from 6 molecules of CO2. So, overall:

6CO2(g) + 6H2O(l) > C6H12O6(aq) + 6O2(g).

What is photosynthesis?

Photosynthesis is the process  plants and other organisms use to convert light energy into chemical energy, which is later released through cellular respiration to power the activity of the organism.

Therefore, This is the equation for photosynthesis whereby, in the presence of light energy from the Sun and chlorophyll, plants synthesize glucose from carbon dioxide and water.
