Answer:

6 oxygen atoms

Explanation:

From the equation,

2Fe(OH)₃ → Fe₂O₃ + 3H₂O

From the reactant (left hand side) we have 2 moles of Fe(OH)₃ having (2 * 3 = 6) atoms of oxygen and decomposed to give Fe₂O₃ which contains 3 atoms of oxygen and 3 moles of water that also contains 3 atoms of oxygen.

Since the number of oxygen participating in the reaction is independent on the product (not a reversible reaction) then the total number of oxygen atoms participating in the reaction is 6

If 190dm of hydrogen gas collected at 20°c and 760mmHg .Calculate it's volume at stp (standard pressure=760mmHg

Andrei [34K]

Answer:

177.1 L

Explanation:

The excersise can be solved, by the Ideal Gases Law.

P . V = n . R . T

In first step we need to determine the moles of gas:

We convert T° from, C° to K → 20°C + 273 = 293K

We convert P from mmHg to atm → 760 mmHg = 1atm

1Dm³ = 1L → 190L

We replace: 190 L . 1 atm = n . 0.082 . 293K

(190L.atm) / 0.082 . 293K = 7.91 moles.

We replace equation at STP conditions (1 atm and 273K)

V = (n . R .T) / P

V = (7.91 mol . 0.082 . 273K) / 1atm = 177.1 L

We can also make a rule of three:

At STP conditions 1 mol of gas occupies 22.4L

Then, 7.91 moles will be contained at (7.91 . 22.4) /1 = 177.1L

7. Explain how magnetic potential energy can be transformed into kinetic energy. (1 point)

Arisa [49]

The potential energy by the magnetic field can turn into kinetic energy once the field is moving from the S pole to the N pole when it reaches the N pole it is potential energy when it exits the S pole it is kinetic energy.

A solution is prepared by adding 0.0231moles of H3O+ ions to 3.33L of water. What is the pH of this solution

MrMuchimi

Answer:

2.15

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember the pH formula:

$pH~=~-Log[H_3O^+]$

By definition, the pH value is calculated when we do the -Log of the concentration of the hydronium ions ( $H_3O^+$ ). So, the next step is the calculation of the concentration of the hydronium ions. For this, we have to use the molarity formula:
