Answer:

Explanation:

To show the sequence of electrons filling sublevels in an atom, the Aufbau's principle is one of the tenets that must be satisfied to write a proper notation.

Aufbau's principle states that "the sublevels with lower energies are filled up before those with higher energies".
Note that based on this principle, we are not inferring that sublevels are filled in numerical order.
The patter of filling is shown below:

1s 2s 2p 3s 3p 4s 3d 4p 5s 4d 5p 6s 4f 5d 6p 7s 5f e.t.c

Balance the combustion eqation; __C5H + __O2 ---> __CO2+__H2O

stira [4]

This equation C5H + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O has a mistake.

C5H is wrong. You missed the subscript of H.

I will do it for you assuming some subscript to show you the procedure, but you have to use the right equation to get the right balanced equation.

Assuming the tha combustion equation is C5H12 + O2 ---> CO2 + H2O

First you need to balance C, so you put a 5 before CO2 and get

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + H2O

Now you count the hydrogens: 12 on the left and 2 on the right. So put a 6 before H2O and get:

C5H12 + O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O

Now count the oxygens: 2 on the left and 16 on the right, so put an 8 on before O2:

=> C5H12 + 8O2 ---> 5CO2 + 6H2O.

You can verify that the equation is balanced

For a trip to the Moon, a rocket must lift off from

VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

20 m/s^2

Explanation:

given,

final velocity (v) = 6000m/s

initial velocity (u) = 0m/s

time taken (t) = 5 minutes

= 5×60second

= 300second

acceleration(a) = ?

we know that,

a = (v-u)/t

= (6000-0)/300

= 20 m/s^2

A researcher placed 25.0 g of silver chloride, AgCl, in sunlight and allowed the substance to decompose completely to form silve

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

A. The law of definite proportions states that all pure samples of a particular chemical compound contain the same elements combines in the same proportion by mass.

B. The law of conservation of mass states that during ordinary chemical reactions, matter can neither be created or destroyed.

Note: The full question is as follows;

A researcher placed 25.0 g of silver chloride, AgCl, in sunlight and allowed the substance to decompose completely to form silver, Ag, with the release of chlorine gas, Cl2. The gas was collected in a container during the decomposition. The researcher determined that the mass of the silver formed was 18.8 g, and the mass of the chlorine gas formed was 6.2 g. The equation for the reaction is:

2AgCl ----> 2Ag + Cl2

a. State the law of definite proportions. Then use the researcher's data to confirm the law of definite proportions. Show your calculations.

b. State the law of conservation of matter. Then use the researcher's data to confirm the conservation of matter. Show your calculations.

Explanation:

A. Mass of silver obtained from AgCl = 18.8g.

Percentage mass of silver in the chloride = (18.8/25.0) * 100 = 75.2 %

Mass of chlorine obtained from AgCl = 6.2

Percentage mass of chlorine = (6.2/25) * 100 = 24.8 %

In one mole of AgCl with a molar mass of 143.3 g/mol; mass of silver = 107.8, mass of Cl = 35.5

Percentage mass of Ag = (107.8/143.3) * 100 = 75.2%

Percentage mass of Cl = (35.5/143.3) * 100 = 24.8%

Since the percentages by mass of Ag and AgCl obtained from the sample is the same to that obtained from a mole of AgCl, the law of definite proportions which states that all pure samples of a particular chemical compound contain the same elements combined in the same proportion by mass is verified.

B. Mass of reactant; AgCl sample = 25.0

Mass of products; At = 18.8 g; Cl = 6.2 g

Sum of products masses = 18.8 + 6.2 = 25.0 g

Therefore mass of reactant = mass of products.

This is in accordance with the law of conservation of mass which states that during ordinary chemical reactions, matter is neither created nor destroyed.
