Acetylene gas, C2H2, releases large quantities of heat when it burns, making it ideal for welding applications. This gas is gene

rated by reacting calcium carbide with excess water. Calcium hydroxide is a byproduct of this reaction. If you needed 26kg of acetylene to fill a cylinder, how many kg calcium carbide would you need to order?

Answer:

64 kg

Explanation:

The computation of the number of kg need to ordered is shown below:

As we know that

CaC_2 + 2H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)^2   + C_2H_2

Now as we know that

1  mole of C_2H_2 generated from 1 mole of CaC_2

Now

26g of C_2H_2 generated from 64g of CaC_2

And,

26kg of C_2H_2 generated from

= \frac{64g\times26Kg}{26g}

= 64kg CaC_2

Hence, the number of kg that required for ordering the calcium carbide is 64 kg

13. Would you expect oxygen to form a cation or anion? How many electrons would it gain or lose? Why?
netineya [11]

Answer: C)Anion, it would gain 2 electrons to satisfy the octet rule.

Explanation:

Electronic configuration represents the total number of electrons that a neutral element contains. We add all the superscripts to know the number of electrons in an atom.

The electrons are filled according to Afbau's rule in order of increasing energies and thus the electronic configuration of oxygen with 8 electrons is

O:8:1s^22s^22p^4

The cation is formed by loss of electrons and anions are formed by gain of electrons.  

In order to complete its octet and get stable, it gains 2 electrons and thus would form an anion.

O^{2-}:10:1s^22s^22p^6

Why are silver, lead, and mercury so special? (why do they always precipitate out and never dissolve) PLEASE BE DETAILED BUT SIM
lara [203]
Silver and lead are special elements, where silver is insoluble in all halogen anions (like AgCl, AgI, AgBr)
and lead is insoluble in sulphates and halogen anions ( PbSO4, PbCl2, etc.)
Mercury is special because it is the only metal that is a liquid at room temperature
hope this helps!!

Umnica [9.8K]

Temperature, cloud cover and thunder are all examples of weather.  

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Weather is described as conditions that prevail for a short period of time and the above-mentioned factors change variably throughout the day. Cloud cover simply describes the clouds coverage in the sky. It is one factor that is used to describe weather conditions since the type of clouds indicates prevailing weather.

For example, the presence of cirrus means there will be a storm in 24 to 48 hours. Weather conditions characterized by thunder is said to be stormy and it also has other conditions such as lightning, wind and fast rain with heavy raindrops. Temperature affects the warmness and coldness of the air and its movement. Moreover, it also affects all other aspects of weather conditions.
