Hydrogen sulfide gas gives rotten eggs their terrible odor. Hydrogen sulfide burns in air (O2) to produce sulfide dioxide gas an

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

2.07 mol O₂

Explanation:

First we need to write down the species present in the chemical equation, using the information given by the exercise:

H₂S + O₂ → SO₂ + H₂O

However this equation is not balanced, so now we balance it:

2H₂S + 3O₂ → 2SO₂ + 2H₂O

Now we can use the stoichiometric ratio to calculate the moles of oxygen from the moles of sulfide dioxide:

1.38 molSO₂ * $\frac{3molO_{2}}{2molSO_{2}}$ = 2.07 mol O₂

Why atoms in our body don’t eject electrons?

Zolol [24]

Answer:

When there are too many protons, some of the outer protons are loosely bound and more free to react with the electron. But most atoms do not have too many protons, so there is nothing for the electron to interact with. As a result, each electron in a stable atom remains in its spread-out wavefunction shape.

In an atom, there is a nucleus made up of neutral charged, neutrons, and positively charged protons. The reason why electrons which are negatively charged, don't fly off is due to its stronger attraction to the protons. ... This, however, still allows the electrons to move around the nucleus of an atom.

To measure the amount of calcium carbonate in a seashell, an analytical chemist crushes a sample of the shell to a fine powder a

andreyandreev [35.5K]

The given question is complete, the complete question is:

To measure the amount of calcium carbonate (CaCO) in a seashell, an analytical chemist crushes a 4.80 g sample of the shell to a fine powder and titrates it to the endpoint with 515. mL of 0.140 M hydrogen chloride (HCl) solution. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: 2HCI(a)Co (a) H2Co,(aq) + 2Cl (aq)

What kind of reaction is this?

If you said this was a precipitation reaction, enter the chemical formula of the precipitate.

If you said this was an acid-base reaction, enter the chemical formula of the reactant that is acting as the base.

If you said this was a redox reaction, enter the chemical symbol of the element that is oxidized

Calculate the mass percent of CaCO in the sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

It is an acid-base reaction and the mass percent of CaCo3 is 75.2%.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction in which an insoluble salt produces from two soluble salts is termed as precipitation reaction.

A reaction in which atleast exchange of one proton takes place between the two species is termed as an acid-base reaction.

A reaction in which any of the element has a change in oxidation state is termed as redox reaction.

In the mentioned reaction, there is a transfer of H⁺, no precipitation is forming, and no change in oxidation state taking place, thus, it is an acid-base reaction.

In the acid-base reaction, the base refers to the species that accepts hydrogen ion or proton. In the given case, CO₃²⁻ is accepting H+ ion to become H₂CO₃. Hence, CO₃²⁻ is the base.

In order to calculate mass percent of CaCO₃, first there is a need to find the moles of HCl reacted for a solution,

Moles = Molarity × Volume (L)

Moles = 0.140 mol/L × 515 × 10⁻³ L

Moles = 0.0721 mol

Now from the balanced equation, one mole of CaCO₃ needs two moles of HCl.

So, moles of CaCO₃ reacted will be,

= 1/2 × 0.0721 = 0.03605 mol

The mass of calcium carbonate taking part in reaction will be,

= Moles × Molar mass

= 0.03605 × 100 gram/mole

= 3.6086 gram

Mass% of CaCO₃ = Mass of CaCO₃/Mass of sample × 100

= 3.6086 grams/4.80 grams × 100

Mass % = 75.2%

How does the flame test results and spectrum results relate to quantum mechanics, specifically electron movement?

Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer: Many elements produce colors in the flame when heated.

Explanation:

The origin of this phenomenon lies in the arrangement, or “configuration” of the electrons in the atoms of the different elements In the flame test, if this energy has the form of visible light, the flame will produce a color characteristic of the element.

"The occurrence of the all-or-none ________________ results from depolarization in response to rapid entry of ____________ ions

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

The correct answer is

B.action potential; sodium

Explanation:

Action potential

Nerve action potentials are initiated and propagated in an all or nothing fashion. The all-or nothing action potential is initiated when the membrane potential threshold value is reached

Sodium

Voltage-gated Na⁺ ions membrane channels open enabling an influx of sodium ions to rapidly enter the cell, raising the membrane potential up to +40 mV

Depolarization in the neuron is based ion exchange channels opening to allow the rapid influx of sodium ions (Na⁺) and the efflux of potassium ions (K⁺)

The neuronal responds rapidly and for short periods to the activation of an ion channel receptor by a drug or natural neurotransmitter is rapid rel
