When calcium metal is placed in water, hydrogen gas bubbles out, leaving a highly alkaline (basic) solution. Write the balanced

chemical equation for this reaction. Phases are optional. Do not write an ionic equation (i.e., the answer should not show any charges).

Answer:

Ca (s) + 2H₂O (l) →  Ca(OH)₂ (aq)  +  H₂ (g)

Explanation:

When solid calcium reacts with water, it produces the correspondent hydroxid and hydrogen gas.

The hydroxid which is produced, is the calcium hydroxid which is a strong base, that's why you talk about a highly alkaline solution.

Ca (s) + 2H₂O (l) →  Ca(OH)₂ (aq)  +  H₂ (g)

Calcium hydroxide is a strong base, that dissociates in water, as this:

Ca(OH)₂  →  Ca²⁺ (aq)  + 2OH⁻ (aq)

It's a basic solution,  is providing hydroxyl ions to the medium

What will be the pressure of 2.00 mol of an ideal gas at a temperature of 20.5 degrees Celsius and a volume of 62.3L?
erastova [34]

.774atm

First, look at what you have and look at the equations you can use to solve this problem. The best equation would be PV=nRT.

P being pressure, V being volume, n being moles, R being the gas constant, and T being temperature.

Before you start doing any of the math, make sure of two things. Since you're looking for pressure, you'll need a gas constant. When I did the problem, I used the gas constant of atm or atmospheres which is .0821.

Also! Remember to always convert celsius into kelvin, to do this, add 273 to the given celsius degree. After this is all set and done, your equation should look like this:

P = \frac{2 x .0821 x 293.5}{62.3}

The reason that the equation is divided by the volume is due to the fact that you need to isolate the variable or pressure.

Multiply everything on the top and divide by the bottom and you should receive the final answer of .774atm.

Hope this helps!

If 16 moles of al react with 3 moles of S8 how many moles of Al2 S3 will be formed
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

8 moles

Explanation:

Al reacts with S_8 to produce Al_2S_3 as

Al+S_8\rightarrow Al_2S_3

The balanced chemical equation is

16Al+3S_8\rightarrow 8Al_2S_3

In the reaction, 16 moles of Al react with 3 moles of S_8 to produce 8 moles of Al_2S_3.

Labels of many food products have expiration dates, at which point they are typically removed from the supermarket shelves. A pa
White raven [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Since it first order, we use order rate equation

In ( \frac{A1}{A0}) = -kt where A1 is the final quality = 0.8 (80%), A0 is the initial quality = 1 ( 100%)

also, t half life = \frac{In2}{k} where k is rate constant

k = \frac{In 2}{45 days} = 0.0154

In ( \frac{0.8}{1}) = - 0.0154 t

-0.223 / -0.0154 = t

t = 14.49 approx 14.5 days from the date the yogurt was packaged
