(a)  (i) Zinc blende is mainly Zinc sulphide and in industry it is converted to ZnO by flames to burn off the sulphur as SO2 which is then used to make sulphuric acid.

(ii)   Reduction of ZnO to Zn:-

2ZnO + C = CO2 + 2Zn

(b) This is called sacrificial anodic protection.  The zinc ( which is more reactive than iron) when in contact with the oxygen in the air is oxidised and in the process loses its electrons. These travel  through the electrolyte to the iron. The electrons then reduce any iron oxide to iron: fe2+ + 2e  ---> Fe.

A sample of gas is held at 1000C at a volume of 20 L. If the volume is increased to 40 L, what is the new temperature of the gas
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The new temperature will be 2546 K or 2273 °C

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

The initial temperature = 1000 °C =1273 K

The volume = 20L

The volume increases to 40 L

Step 2: Calculate the new temperature

V1/T1 = V2/T2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 20L

⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 1273 K

⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 40L

⇒with T2 = the new temperature = TO BE DETERMINED

20L/ 1273 K = 40L / T2

T2 = 40L / (20L/1273K)

T2 = 2546 K

The new temperature will be 2546 K

This is 2546-273 = 2273 °C

Since the volume is doubled, the temperature is doubled as well

If a concentrated solution of acetic acid is 99.5 % HC2 H3 O2 and has a density of 1.05 g/mL, what is the concentration of this
cluponka [151]

Answer:

[CH₃COOH] = 17.4 M

Explanation:

Acetic acid → CH₃COOH

Molar mass → 60 g/mol

99.5% is percent by mass concentration. It means that 99.5 grams of solute are contained in 100g of solution.

Density → 1.05 g/mL. This data is always referred to solution, not solute!.

We determine solution's volume:

1.05 g/mL = 100 g / V → V = 100 g /1.05 g/mL → 95.2 mL

Now we know, that 99.5 g of acetic acid are contained in 95.2 mL

Let's convert to mmoles → 99.5 g / 60 g/mol = 1.66 moles

We convert solution's volume to L → 95.2 mL . 1L / 1000 mL = 0.0952 L

M (mol/L) = 1.66 mol / 0.0952 L = 17.4 M

Can someone help me please ? Click the picture
bixtya [17]

Answer:

Because it lose detectable mass.

Explanation:

Law of conservation of mass states that substances involved in chemical reaction do not lose or gain any mass. So the above reactions don't demonstrate the law of conservation of mass because it lose mass

If 7.6 moles of H2O are produced from the reaction how many moles of O2 were used?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

Number of moles of oxygen used=13.5moles

Explanation:

To know the number of moles of oxygen used, first calculate the molar mass of water.

H2O=(2*1)+(1*16)

=2+16

18g/mol of H2O

The moles of H2O is 7.6 moles

So first, find the molar mass of oxygen

O2=2*16

=32g/mol

Then, number of moles of oxygen is equal to molar mass of oxygen divide by the molar mass of water times the number of moles of water

No. moles of O2=[32g/mol]/[18g/mol] *7.6moles

Moles of O2=1.778*7.6moles

No.moles of O2=13.5 moles

Therefore, the number of moles of oxygen used was 13.5moles
