Answer:

The empirical formula is = NiO

Explanation:

Given that:- Mass of nickel = 2.241 g

Mass of the oxide formed = 2.852 g

Mass of the oxygen reacted = Mass of the oxide formed - Mass of nickel  = 2.852 g - 2.241 g = 0.611 g

Molar mass of nickel  = 58.6934 g/mol

Moles of nickel = \frac{2.241}{58.6934}\ mol = 0.03818 mol

Molar mass of oxygen  = 15.999 g/mol

Moles of nickel = \frac{0.611}{15.999}\ mol = 0.03818 mol

Taking the simplest ratio for Ni and O as:

0.03818 : 0.03818 = 1 : 1

<u>The empirical formula is = NiO </u>

List the 3 ways carbon can enter the ocean?
prohojiy [21]

Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in the surface waters of the ocean. Some of the carbon dioxide stays as dissolved gas, but much of it gets turned into other things. Photosynthesis by tiny marine plants (phytoplankton) in the sunlit surface waters turns the carbon into organic matte

Which orbital is partially filled in the Zirconium (ZI) atom?
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

4d orbital.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since zirconium's atomic number is 40, we fill in the electron configuration up to 40 as shown below:

1s^2,2s^2,2p^6, 3s^2,3p^6,4s^2,3d^{10},4p^6,5s^2,4d^2

Thus, the orbital 4d is partially filled.

Best regards!

In a solution, when the suspension of one kind of molecules is blended or dissolved with another, the ________ properties are no
Sidana [21]

Answer:

chemical

Explanation:

The chemical properties determine the identity of a substance and are not changed when there is no reaction. In the solution, what takes place is a physical change, which is a change of state (for example, going from solid to aqueous form).

How much heat must your body transfer to 500.0g of water to heat it from 25.0°C to body temperature, 37.0°C?
shtirl [24]

Answer : The heat your body transfer must be, 25.1 kJ

Explanation :

Formula used :

Q=m\times c\times \Delta T

or,

Q=m\times c\times (T_2-T_1)

where,

Q = heat = ?

m = mass of water = 500.0 g

c = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

T_1 = initial temperature  = 25.0^oC

T_2 = final temperature  = 37.0^oC

Now put all the given value in the above formula, we get:

Q=500.0g\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (37.0-25.0)K

Q=25080J=25.1kJ

Therefore, the heat your body transfer must be, 25.1 kJ
