Adding powdered limestone (calcium carbonate) to a lake affected by acid rain can decrease the availability of phosphate ion, an

important nutrient, but not nitrate ion another nutrient. Write a balanced equation and calculate the standard free energy change for the process to confirm its spontaneity.

Answer:

The reaction is:

                                    H⁺

CaCO₃ ⇄ Ca²⁺ + CO₃ ⇄ HCO₃

The standard free energy change is ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

Explanation:

Limestone is a mineral familiar with calcium carbonate, and being very common, the acid present in acid rain dissolves it reacting with carbonate, since the acids present in acid rain are characterized by being highly soluble in water and are also strong acids. The reaction is as follows:

                                    H⁺

CaCO₃ ⇄ Ca²⁺ + CO₃ ⇄ HCO₃

The spontaneity of the reaction is equal to:

ΔG = ΔH - TΔS

The sign of the standard free energy changes from positive to negative.

NISA [10]

Answer:

d. solar winds

Explanation:

Dr. Tate and Dr. Ramirez are observing solar winds coming from the sun. Solar winds occurs naturally in which the particles such as electrons and photons releases from the surface of the sun into the space. These solar winds moves in the solar system and interact with planets of the solar system. Dr. Tate and Dr. Ramirez are the two well known scientist observing the effects of solar winds that has reached the planet Jupiter.

If a gas occupies 4600 mL at 0.9 atm and 195°C, what is the new volume in ml
Bumek [7]

Answer:

The new volume is 2415 mL

Explanation:

The STP conditions refer to the standard temperature and pressure. Pressure values at 1 atmosphere and temperature at 0 ° C are used and are reference values for gases.

Boyle's law says that the volume occupied by a given gas mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure and is expressed mathematically as:

P * V = k

Charles's law is a law that says that when the amount of gas and pressure are kept constant, the ratio between volume and temperature will always have the same value:

\frac{V}{T} =k

Gay-Lussac's law indicates that when there is a constant volume, as the temperature increases, the gas pressure increases. And when the temperature is decreased, the gas pressure decreases. This can be expressed mathematically in the following way:

\frac{P}{T} =k

Combined law equation is the combination of three gas laws called Boyle's, Charlie's and Gay-Lusac's law:

\frac{P*V}{T} =k

Having two different states, an initial state and an final state, it is true:

\frac{P1*V1}{T1} =\frac{P2*V2}{T2}

In this case:

  • P1= 0.9 atm
  • V1=4,600 mL= 4.6 L (being 1 L=1,000 mL)
  • T1= 195 °C= 468 °K (being 0°C=273°K)

The final state 2 is in STP conditions:

  • P2= 1 atm
  • V2= ?
  • T2= 0°C= 273 °K

Replacing:

\frac{0.9 atm*4.6L}{468K} =\frac{1 atm*V2}{273K}

Solving:

V2=\frac{0.9 atm*4.6L}{468K}*\frac{273K}{1 atm}

V2= 2.415 L =2,415 mL

<u><em>The new volume is 2415 mL</em></u>

Calculate the mass of 20.0 moles of He (in g)
Daniel [21]

Explanation:

20.0 moles= 80.1 or 80.05g

5.00 moles= 20.0g

1.20×1025moles= 4923.2g

1.00 moles= 4.00g

80.0 moles= 320.2g

b) If 1.5 mole of oxygen reacted, how many mole of iron (III) oxide would be formed from the reaction?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

If there reacted 1.5 moles of O2, there will be produced 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles oxygen reacted = 1.5 moles

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Fe + 3O2 → 2Fe2O3

Step 3: Calculate moles of Fe2O3

For 4 moles Fe consumed, we need 3 moles of O2 to produce 2 moles of Fe2O3

For 1.5 moles O2 consumed, we'll have 2/3 * 1.5 = 1.0 mol of Fe2O3

If there reacted 1.5 moles of O2, there will be produced 1.0 mol of Fe2O3
