Jacob takes 7 classes, each 50.00 minutes long every day for the 5 day school week. How many hours per week does he spend in cla

Zina [86]

Answer: He spends 29.17 hours per week

Explanation:

1 class = 50mins

7 classes = 7 x 50mins = 350mins

For 5 days in a week, we have

5 x 350mins = 1750mins

Converting to hours, we have

1750 /60 = 29.17 hours

Aqueous acetic acid is neutralized by aqueous barium hydroxide. express your answer as a balanced molecular equation. identify a

Studentka2010 [4]

The balanced molecular equation for the given reaction is:

$2CH_3COOH(aq) \ + \ Ba(OH)_2(aq) \rightarrow \ Ba(CH_3COO)_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l).$

<h3>FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>

To check that the equation is balanced count how many atoms are present for each element in the reactant and product side. If they are the same before and after reaction for all elements, then the reaction is deemed balanced.

The atom counting for the equation is shown below:

$2CH_3COOH(aq) \ + \ Ba(OH)_2(aq) \rightarrow \ Ba(CH_3COO)_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l).$

<u>Reactants </u> → <u>Products</u>

C: (2 x 2) =4 C: (2 x 2) = 4

H: (2 x 4) + (1 x 2) =10 H: (3 x 2) + (2 X 2) = 10

O: (2 x 2) + (1 x 2) = 6 O: (2 x 2) + (2 x 1) = 6

Ba: 1 Ba: 1

Since the number of atoms of each element are similar in the reactants and products, the equation is balanced.

To determine the state of the substances, consider their solubility.

The reactants are both aqueous (aq) as indicated in the problem.

The first product, $Ba(CH_3COO)_2$ is aqueous (aq) because based on the solubility rule, it will dissolve in water. Acetates are generally soluble.
