Why can we see light from a lightbulb?

Chemistry

inessss [21]3 years ago

Answer:

When a light bulb connects to an electrical power supply, an electrical current flows from one metal contact to the other. As the current travels through the wires and the filament, the filament heats up to the point where it begins to emit photons, which are small packets of visible light.

Sulfur and oxygen react to produce sulfur trioxide. In a particular experiment, 7.9 grams of SO3 are produced by the reaction of
shutvik [7]

Answer:

  • <u>79%</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Balanced chemical equation:</u>

  • 2S + 3O₂ → 2SO₃

<u>2) Mole ratio:</u>

  • 2 mol S : 3 mol O₂ : 2 mol SO₃

<u>3) Limiting reactant:</u>

  • Number of moles of O₂

        n = 6.0 g / 32.0 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O₂

  • Number of moles of S:

         n = 7.0 g / 32.065 g/mol = 0.2183 mol S

  • Ratios:

        Actual ratio: 0.1875 mol O₂ / 0.2183 mol S =0.859

        Theoretical ratio: 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol S = 1.5

Since there is a smaller proportion of O₂ (0.859) than the theoretical ratio (1.5), O₂ will be used before all S be consumed, and O₂ is the limiting reactant.

<u>4) Calcuate theoretical yield (using the limiting reactant):</u>

  • 0.1875 mol O₂ / x = 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol SO₃

  • x = 0.1875 × 2 / 3 mol SO₃ =  0.125 mol SO₃

<u>5) Yield in grams:</u>

  • mass = number of moles × molar mass = 0.125 mol × 80.06 g/mol =  10.0 g

<u>6) </u><em><u>Percent yield:</u></em>

  • Percent yield, % = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100
  • % = (7.9 g / 10.0 g) × 100 = 79%

3 Cells use oxygen to release energy during
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Explanation: Cellular respiration is the process that occurs in the mitochondria of organisms (animals and plants) to break down sugar in the presence of oxygen to release energy in the form of ATP. This process releases carbon dioxide and water as waste products.

Round the following numbers to the number of significant figures indicated:
Kruka [31]
  1. 3.5
  2. 9
  3. 24.7
  4. 8.01
  5. 0.006
  6. 13(1.25×1012=12.65)

Explanation:

Above we have simply looked the condition that where we put decimal point that gives your needed answer after round off.

For example:

we have to make 2 s.f from 345 so we kept decimal after 3 and we rounded off to make 3.5 from 3.45

Hope you got it
