What is the maximum mass of s8 that can be produced by combining 89.0 g of each reactant?
lidiya [134]

Answer : We can produce 125.7 g of S_{8}.


Explanation : The reaction will be

8SO_{2} + 16H_{2}S -----> 3S_{8} + 16H_{2}O


The molecular mass of SO_{2} is 64.1 g/mol

and molecular mass of H_{2}S is 34.1 g/mol


For every mole of SO_{2} we would need twice of H_{2}S moles, so for every 3 moles of S_{8} we need 16 moles of H_{2}S


Now, we can calculate number of moles S_{8}

2.61 X (3/16) = 0.49 moles


Here, the molecular mass of S_{8} is 256.8 g


multiplying it with the number of 0.49 moles we get, 256.8 X 0.49 = 125.7 g of S_{8}.


Hence, 125.7 g of S_{8} will be produced.

A buffer is a solution that is a mixture of either a weak acid and its conjugate base or a weak base and its conjugate acid. Whe
babymother [125]

Answer:

b. The weak base of an alkaline buffer will accept hydrogen protons when a strong acid is added to the solution

d.The conjugate acid of an alkaline buffer will donate hydrogen protons when a strong base is added to the solution.

Explanation:

A buffer is a solution that resist pH change, it shows minimal change upon addition of small amount of strong acid or strong base. An alkaline buffer will have a  basic pH, above 7. It is made by mixing a weak base and its salt with a strong acid. An example of an alkaline buffer is carbonate-bicarbonate buffer that is prepared using varying amount of anhydrous sodium carbonate and volume of solution of sodium bicarbonate to get pH range between 9.2 to 10.7

Within the buffer,the salt is completely ionized while the weak base is partly ionized. on addition of acid, the released protons will be removed by the bicarbonate ion to form sodium carbonate; on addition of base, the hydroxide ion released by the base will be removed by the hydrogen ions to form water and the pH remains relatively the same

Imagine a 15kg block moving with a speed of 20m/s. Calculate the kinetic energy of this block.
SSSSS [86.1K]

The kinetic energy formula is;

  • KE=\frac{m.v^2}{2}

The variable m represents the mass. Its unit is kilogram. We are informed that the mass of the object is 15kg. The variable v represents the linear velocity. Its unit is meter per second. We are informed that the linear velocity of the object is 20m/s. Let's find the kinetic energy of the object by substituting these values in the formula.

  • KE=\frac{15kg.(20m/s)^2}{2}
  • 2.KE=15kg.400m^2/s^2
  • 2.KE=(6000)kgm^2/s^2
  • KE=(3000)kgm^2/s^2=3000J
