a minute planet; a body that could or did come together with many others under gravitation to form a planet. Planetesimals are small rock fragments that combined together to eventually form planets
Alpha, beta and gamma radiation are all types of radiation that can be emitted from the nucleus of an atom. Apart from this they are different. Alpha radiation consists of a helium nucleus, beta radiation consists of an electron (or positron) and gamma radiation consists of very high energy electromagnetic radiation.
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:
<span>4C(s) + S8(s) → 4CS2(l)
We are given the amount of carbon and sulfur to be used in the reaction. We need to determine first the limiting reactant to be able to solve this correctly.
</span>7.70 g C ( 1 mol / 12.01 g) =0.64 mol C
19.7 g S8 ( 1 mol / 256.48 g) = 0.08 mol S8
The limiting reactant would be S8. We use this amount to calculate.
0.08 mol S8 ( 4 mol CS2 / 1 mol S8 ) ( 256.48 g / 1 mol ) = 78.8 g CS2
Remember that density refers to the "mass per unit volume" of an object.
So, if an object had a mass of 100 grams and a volume of 100 milliliters, the density would be 100 grams / 100 ml.
In the question, water on the surface of the scale would add weight, so the mass of the object that you're weighing would appear to be heavier than it really is. If that happens, you'll incorrectly assume that the density is GREATER than it really is
As an example, suppose that there was 5 ml of water on the surface of the scale. Water has a density of 1 gram per milliliter (1 g/ml) so the water would add 5 grams to the object's weight. If we use the example above, the mass of the object would seem to be 105 grams, rather than 100 grams. So, you would calculate:
density = mass / volume
density = 105 grams / 100 ml
density = 1.05 g/ml
The effect on density would be that it would erroneously appear to be greater
Hope this helps!
Good luck
Correct Question: what is the oxidizing agent in the reaction.
2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Answer: MnO4-is the oxidizing agent
Explanation:
In the reaction 2MnO4–(aq) +10Cl–(aq) + 16H+(aq) --------> 5Cl2(g) + 2Mn2+(aq) +8H2O(l)
Oxidizing agent oxidizes other molecules while the themselves get reduced.
oxidizing agents give away Oxygen to other compounds.
MnO4-is the oxidizing agent because
On the reactants side
Oxidation number of Mn in 2MnO4- is +7
Oxidation number of Cl- is -1
On the products side
Oxidation number of Mn is +2
While oxidation number of Cl is zero
Therefore the oxidizing agent is 2MnO4 because is oxidizes Chlorine from -1 to 0 while itself got reduced from oxidation state of +7 to +2
