An unknown gas Q requires 2.67 times as long to effuse under the same conditions as the same amount of nitrogen gas. What is the

Answer:

The correct answer is 199.66 grams per mole.

Explanation:

Based on law of effusion given by Graham, a gas rate of effusion is contrariwise proportionate to the square root of molecular mass, that is, rate of effusion of gas is inversely proportional to the square root of mass. Therefore,  

R1/R2 = √ M2/√ M1

Here rate is the rate of effusion of the gas expressed in terms of number of mole per uni time or volume, and M is the molecular mass of the gas.  

Rate Q/Rate N2 = √M of N2/ √M of Q

The molecular mass of N2 or nitrogen gas is 28 grams per mole and M of Q is molecular mass of Q and based on the question Q needs 2.67 times more to effuse in comparison to nitrogen gas, therefore, rate of Q = rate of N2/2.67

Now putting the values we get,  

rate of N2/2.67/rate of N2 = √28/ √M of Q

√M of Q = √ 28 × 2.67

M of Q = (√ 28 × 2.67)²

M of Q = 199.66 grams per mole

How is energy transferred and transformed
Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

Energy transfer takes place when energy moves from one place to another. … When energy in a battery is used to power an electronic device, chemical energy is transformed into electrical energy, which moves along wires. Three more ways energy can be transferred are through light, sound, and heat.

A 50.6 grams sample of magnesium hydroxide (Mg(OH)2) is reacted with 45.0 grams of hydrochloric acid (HCl). What is the theoreti
zysi [14]
            <span> Mg(OH)2(s) + 2HCl(aq) yield MgCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

grams HCl required = (50.6 grams Mg(OH)2) * (1 mol Mg(OH)2 / 58.3197 grams Mg(OH)2) * (2 mol HCl / 1 mol Mg(OH)2) * (36.453 grams HCl / 1 mol HCl) = 63.26 grams HCl required

Since there are only 45.0 grams HCl, then HCl is the limiting reactant.

theoretical yield MgCl2 = (45.0 grams HCl) * (1 mol HCl / 36.453 grams HCl) * (1 mol MgCl2 / 2 mol HCl) * (95.211 grams MgCl2 / 1 mol MgCl2) = 58.6 grams MgCl2 </span>

A scientist is trying to determine whether a certain substance is radioactive. Which question would be most helpful to ask?
oksian1 [2.3K]
Well a question to ask would be if the mass of the material has changed significantly as that would determine that the substance is radioactive or if there have been any high readings found by a Geiger meter in certain period of time

hope that helps

A fish is removed from a contaminated lake. You determine that a particular toxin (X) is present in its cells at concentration X
netineya [11]
The level of toxins in the fish's cell is equivalent to the level of toxins in the water. Therefore, in order to reduce the toxins further, we should replace the now contaminated water with clean water. After the level of toxins in the fish's cell stops reducing, we replace the water with clean water once again.

When 0.25 moles of NH3 are produced according to the reaction below, how many moles of H2 must have reacted?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

Explanation:

by stoichiometry

nNH3/2=nH2/3

0.25/2=nH2/3

nH2=0.25×3/2

nH2=0.375 mol

so its 0.38 mol
