Answer: 10.2 grams

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is :

CaH_2(s)+2H_2O(l)\rightarrow Ca(OH)_2(aq)+2H_2(g)

According to the ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

P = Pressure of the gas = 740 torr =  0.97 atm    (760torr=1atm)

V= Volume of the gas = 12.0 L

T= Temperature of the gas = 19°C = 292 K    0^0C=273K

R= Gas constant = 0.0821 atmL/K mol

n= moles of gas

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.97\times 12.0}{0.0821\times 292}

n=0.48

According to stoichiometry:

2 moles of hydrogen are generated by = 1 mole of CaH_2

Thus 0.48 moles of hydrogen are generated by =\frac{1}{2}\times 0.48=0.24 moles of CaH_2

Mass of  CaH_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.24mol\times 42g/mol=10.2g

Thus 10.2 grams of CaH_2 are needed to generate 12.0 L of hydrogen gas if the pressure of hydrogen is 740. torr at 19°C

Below is a bar graph on candy allowance compared to the child's happiness.
rjkz [21]

Answer:

There is no bar graph attached to this question, however, the question can be answered based on the information given in the question.

The answer is A) average level of happiness

Explanation:

In an experiment, the dependent variable is the variable which is measured by the experimenter. It is the variable that responds to changes made to another variable called independent variable.

In the case of this question, it can be determined, even without the bar graph, that the experiment entails how candy allowance affects a child's happiness. Hence, the candy allowance is changed to influence or cause a response in the child's happiness, which is then measured. Therefore, the AVERAGE LEVEL OF HAPPINESS is the dependent variable.
