Help me out will ya?
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

  1. Option C) the chance of water-borne diseases.

Explanation:

When a <em>flood </em>happens, water will lpotentially get contaminated by several causes which include the overflow of untreated wastewater, the decomposition of the carcasses of animals and people, and the chemical contamination from industries.

In general, biochemical and chemical hazards are present in the water, after a flood, which means that the authorities and population should take extreme care for the use and intake of water: chemical treatment (use of chlorine), boil water. As usual, children and the elderly are the most at risk in those conditions.

The actual yield of a certain reaction is 34.0 g, while the theoretical yield is 50.0 g. Calculate the percent yield.
anyanavicka [17]
The percent yield formula is % yield= (actual yield/theoretical yield) x 100 
34.0g/50.0g= .68 x 100 = 68.0% (theres three sig. figs.)

PLEASE HELP!!! The image represents the reaction between a certain number of molecules of N2 and H2.
77julia77 [94]

Answer:

  • <u><em>The leftover reactant is the nitrogen gas, N₂.</em></u>

Explanation:

As per your description:

<u>1. Square on the left: N₂(g)</u>

  • 3 units of two joint circles: this represents 3 molecules of nitrogen gas, N₂(g).

<u>2. Square on the right: H₂(g)</u>

  • 3 units of two joint circles: this represents 3 molecules of hydrogen gas, H₂(g).

<u>3. Reaction</u>

If the maximum possible amount of NH₃ is formed during the reaction, you assume that the reaction goes to completion.

The chemical equation that represents the reaction is:

  • N₂(g) +  H₂(g) → NH₃(g)

Which must be balanced:

  • N₂(g) +  3H₂(g) → 2NH₃(g)

That means that 1 molecule (or 1 mol) of N₂(g) reacts with 3 molecules (or 3 moles ) of  H₂(g) to produce 2 molecules (or 2 moles) of NH₃(g).

Since, the squares show that there are 3 molecules of each reactant, the 3 molecules of hydrogen gas will be able to react with 1 molecule of nitrogen gas. When that happens, all the hydrogen gas is consumend and yet two molecules of nitrogen gas will remain unreacted. Hence, the nitrogen gas is the leftover reactant.
