Ice floats because it is about 9% less dense than liquid water. ... The heavier water displaces the lighter ice, so ice floats to the top. One consequence of this is that lakes and rivers freeze from top to bottom, allowing fish to survive even when the surface of a lake has frozen over

Nitroglycerin (c3h5n3o9) is a powerful explosive. its decomposition may be represented by 4c3h5n3o9 → 6n2 12co2 10h2o o2 this re
professor190 [17]
The balanced chemical reaction describing this decomposition is as follows:
<span>4c3h5n3o9 .............> 6N2 + 12CO2 +10H2O + O2

From the periodic table:
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of carbon = 12 grams
Therefore:
mass of </span><span>C3H5N3O9 = 3(12) + 5(1) + 3(14) + 9(16) = 227 grams
mass of O2 = 2(16) = 32 grams

From the balanced chemical equation:
4(227) = 908 grams of </span>C3H5N3O9 produce 32 grams of O2. Therefore, to know the amount of oxygen produced from 4.5*10^2 grams <span>C3H5N3O9, all we need to do is cross multiplication as follows:
amount of oxygen = (4.5*10^2*32) / (908) = 15.859 grams</span>

Atoms of iron (fe) and sulfur (s) form iron sulfide (fes) when the iron atom donates electrons to the sulfur atom. the type of b
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

               The type of bond formed in FeS would be <u>Polar Covalent Bond</u>.

Explanation:

Types of Bonds can be predicted by calculating the difference in electronegativity.

If, Electronegativity difference is,

               Less than 0.4 then it is Non Polar Covalent  Bond

               Between 0.4 and 1.7 then it is Polar Covalent  Bond

               Greater than 1.7 then it is Ionic  Bond

For Fe and S,

                   E.N of Sulfur           =   2.58

                   E.N of Iron              =   1.83

                                                  ________

                   E.N Difference            0.75          (Polar Covalent Bond)
