Answer:

The reaction that occurs is a redox reaction. The Copper metal (Cu 0)on the copper pennies is oxidized in concentrated nitric acid to produce Cu2+ ions. Copper is easily oxidized to Cu2+, which is blue in aqueous solutions (water) so you should see the solution turn blue as the copper penny reacts.

Have a nice day ;)(^-^)

Using Dimensional Analysis

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Balanced] CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

[Given] 36 g H₂O

[Solve] x g O₂

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 2 mol O₂ → 2 mol H₂O

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mas of H - 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of O₂ - 2(16.00) = 32.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of H₂O - 2(1.01) + 16.00 = 18.02 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

Set up conversion: $\displaystyle 36 \ g \ H_2O(\frac{1 \ mol \ H_2O}{18.02 \ g \ H_2O})(\frac{2 \ mol \ O_2}{2 \ mol \ H_2O})(\frac{32.00 \ g \ O_2}{1 \ mol \ O_2})$
Divide/Multiply [Cancel Units]: $\displaystyle 63.929 \ g \ O_2$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.</em>

63.929 g O₂ ≈ 64 g O₂

The density of H2O2 is 1.407 g/mL, and the density of O2 is 1.428 g/L. How many liters of O2 can be made from 55 mL H2O2

balandron [24]

Explanation:

mass H2O2 = 55 mL(1.407 g/mL) = 80.85 g

molar mass H2O2 = 2(1.01 g/mol) + 2(16.00 g/mol) = 34.02 g/mol

moles H2O2 = 80.85 g/34.02 g/mol = 2.377 moles H2O2

For each mole of H2O2 you obtain 0.5 mole of O2 (see the equation).

moles O2 = 2.377 moles H2O2 (1 mole O2)/(2 moles H2O2) = 1.188 moles O2

Now, you need the temperature. If you are at STP (273 K, and 1.00 atm) then 1 mole of an ideal gas at STP has a volume of 22.4 L. Without temperature you are not really able to continue. I will assume you are at STP.

Volume O2 = 1.188 moles O2(22.4 L/mole) = 0.0530 L of O2.

which is 53 mL.

What is the polarity of black pepper

leva [86]

Answer:

Polarity in chemistry referred to physical properties of compounds related to solubility, melting and boiling properties.

Polarity of black pepper can be seen when black pepper is sprinkled on water. The balck pepper float on water and get displaced if touched.

It means black pepper is non-polar and have no difference in electronegativity between bonded atoms. Black pepper is so light in weight and non-polar, the surface tension of water keep it floating in the water.
