Answer:

See the answer below , please.

Explanation:

In a decomposition reaction, a certain compound is "broken" to give two or more different products.

An example for compound AB, giving as products A and B:

AB -> A + B

In the case of water:

2H20 -> 2H2 + 02, water decomposes giving Hydrogen and Oxygen

Answer:

The answer is 2 KClO₃ → 2 KCl + 3 O₂

Explanation:

In a decomposition reaction, a single substance decomposes, producing two or more different substances. That is, two or more substances are formed in this type of reactions from a compound. The atoms that form a compound are separated to give the products according to the formula:

AB → A + B

This type of reactions can occur spontaneously or caused by certain external factors that promote the breakdown of the molecule into simpler substances.

So in this case 2 KClO₃ → 2 KCl + 3 O₂ is a decomposition reaction. Potassium chlorate decomposes to give potassium chloride and oxygen gas as a product.

What is the difference in mass between 3.01×10^24 atoms of gold and a gold bar with the dimensions 6.00 cm X 4.25 cm X 2.00 cm

Zanzabum

Answer:

The difference in mass between 3.01×10^24 atoms of gold and a gold bar with the dimensions 6.00 cm X 4.25 cm X 2.00 cm is :

Difference in mass = 985.32 - 984.5 = 0.82 g

Explanation:

Part I :

$n =\frac{3.01\times 10^{24}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}$

n = 4.9983

n = 4.99 moles

(Note : You can also take n = 5 mole )

Molar mass of gold = 196.96 g/mole

This means, 1 mole of gold(Au) contain = 196.96 grams

So, 4.99 moles of gold contain = $5\times 196.96$ g

4.99 moles of gold contain = 984.8 g

Mass of ${3.01\times 10^{24}}$ atoms of gold = 984.5 g

Part II :

Density of Gold = $19.32 g/cm^{3}$

Volume of the cuboid = $length\times breadth\times height$

Volume of the gold bar = $6.00\times 4.25\times 2.00$

Volume of the gold bar = 51 $cm^{3}$

Using formula,

$Density = \frac{mass}{Volume}$

$Mass = Density\times Volume$

$Mass = 19.32 \times 51$

Mass = 985.32 g

So, A gold bar with the dimensions 6.00 cm X 4.25 cm X 2.00 cm has mass of 985.32 g

Difference in mass = 985.32 - 984.5 = 0.82 g

Why are most organic compounds nonconducting and insoluble in water?

maksim [4K]

I think the correct answers from the choices listed above are the second and the last options. Organic compounds are nonducting and insoluble in water because of the bonds that these compounds contain. Most organic compounds don't dissolve in water because they are nonpolar. They don't conduct electricity because they are covalent, not ionic.

The molarity (M) of an aqueous solution containing 22.5 g of sucrose (C12H22O11) in 35.5 mL of solution is ________.

Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

1.86 M

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of sucrose (C12H22O11) = 22.5 g

Volume of solution = 35.5 mL

Molarity of solution =?

Next, we shall determine the number of mole in 22.5 g of sucrose (C12H22O11). This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of sucrose (C12H22O11) = 22.5 g

Molar mass of C12H22O11 = (12×12) + (22×1) + (16×11)

= 144 + 22 + 176

= 342 g/mol

Mole of C12H22O11 =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Mole of C12H22O11 = 22.5 /342

Mole of sucrose (C12H22O11) = 0.066 mole

Next, we shall convert 35.5 mL to litres (L). This can be obtained as follow:

1000 mL = 1 L

Therefore,

35.5 mL = 35.5 mL × 1 L / 1000 mL

35.5 mL = 0.0355 L

Thus, 35.5 mL is equivalent to 0.0355 L.

Finally, we shall determine the molarity of the solution as follow:

Mole of sucrose (C12H22O11) = 0.066 mole

Volume of solution = 0.0355 L.

Molarity of solution =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Molarity of solution = 0.066/0.0355

Molarity of solution = 1.86 M

Therefore, the molarity of the solution is 1.86 M.
