4.1g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of carbon dioxide = 15g

Mass of oxygen gas = 11g

Unknown:

Mass of carbon consumed = ?

Solution:

   Equation of the reaction:

                                              C +  O₂   →   CO₂

    To solve this problem from the balanced equation,  we have to use the amount of product formed and work to Carbon. This is because, we are sure of the amount of carbon dioxide formed but the amount of the given oxygen gas used is not precise.

  Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (16 x2) = 44g/mol

   Number of moles of CO₂ = \frac{15}{44} = 0.34mole

From the equation of the reaction;

              1 mole of CO₂  is produced from 1 mole of C

           0.34mole of CO₂  will produce 0.34mole of C

Mass of carbon reacting = number of moles x molar mass = 0.34 x 12 = 4.1g

A solution prepared by mixing 10 ml of 1 m hcl and 10 ml of 1.2 m naoh has a ph of
blagie [28]

Answer: pH of resulting solution will be 13

Explanation:

pH is the measure of acidity or alkalinity of a solution.

Moles of H^+ ion = Molarity\times {\text {Volume in L}}=1M\times 0.01L=0.01mol

Moles of OH^- ion = Molarity\times {\text {Volume in L}}=1.2M\times 0.01L=0.012mol

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

For neutralization:

1 mole of H^+ ion will react with 1 mole of OH^- ion

0.01 mol of H^+  ion will react with =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.01mole of OH^- ion

Thus (0.012-0.01)= 0.002 moles of OH^- are left in 20 ml or 0.02 L of solution.

[OH^-]=\frac{0.002}{0.02L}=0.1M

pOH=-log[OH^-]

pOH=-log[0.1]=1

pH+pOH=14

pH=14-1=13

Thus the pH of resulting solution will be 13

Compute the reactance of a 0.450 H inductor at the frequency of 60.0 Hz. Express your answer in ohms.
vlada-n [284]

Answer:

169.67Ω

Explanation:

This question is asking for the inductive reactance, which is calculated as follows:

X(L) = 2πfL

Where;

X(L) = inductive reactance (Ω)

f = frequency (Hz)

π = 3.142

L = inductance (Henry)

Given the information provided, f = 60Hz, L = 0.450H

X(L) = 2πfL

X(L) = 2 × 3.142 × 60 × 0.450

X(L) = 6.284 × 60 × 0.450

X(L) = 6.284 × 27

X(L) = 169.668

X(L) = 169.67Ω

Diagram of the outermost shell of fluorine atom?
Rufina [12.5K]

Orbital diagram:

\text{Energy}\left \uparrow \begin{array}{ccccc}2p & &\uparrow\downarrow&\uparrow\downarrow&\uparrow\\2s&\uparrow\downarrow\end{array}\right.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Fluorine F is found in the second column from the right end of a modern periodic table. Fluorine is next to and on the left of the noble gas element neon. A neutral fluorine atom is one electron short of neon, which contains 8 electrons in the outermost shell when neutral. As a result, there are 7 electrons in the outermost shell of a fluorine atom.

Fluorine is in period 2. Its electrons occupy two main shells. The second main shell is the outermost shell of F. There are two subshells in the second main shell:

  • 2s, which holds up to two electrons, and
  • 2p, which holds up to six electrons.

A 2s electron carries less energy than a 2p electron. By Aufbau principle, the seven electrons will fill the two spaces in 2s before moving on the 2p. Among the 7 outermost shell electrons, 7 - 2 = 5 will end up going to 2p.

The only 2s orbital is filled with two electrons. The two 2s electrons will pair up with opposite spins, as seen with the two arrows. Two of the 2p orbitals will contain two electrons. Those electrons will also pair up. The third 2p orbital will contain only one electron. That electron can spin either \uparrow or \downarrow. Here that electron is shown as an upward arrow.
