Passing an electric current through a sample of water (H2O) can cause the water to decompose into hydrogen gas (H2) and oxygen g

as (O2) according to the following equation.. . 2H2O= 2H2 + O2 . . The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O, in grams, must react to produce 50.00 g of O2?. 14.07. 23.05. 28.14. 56.28

The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>2H2O= 2H2 + O2
</span>
We are given the amount of oxygen to be produced in the reaction. The starting point for the calculations will be this amount.

50 g ( 1 mol O2 / 32 g O2 ) ( 2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2 ) ( 18.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O) = 56.28 g of H2O is needed.

Therefore, the correct answer is the last option.

What is formed when water chemically combines with carbon dioxide
solong [7]

When water chemically combines with carbon dioxide, a Carbonic acid is formed.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Carbon dioxide responds with water in a solution to form a weak acid, carbonic acid. Carbonic acid disassociates into hydrogen particles and bicarbonate particles. The hydrogen particles and water respond with the most basic minerals modifying the minerals.  
  • Carbon dioxide and the other atmospheric gases disintegrate in surface waters. Dissolved gases are in equilibrium with the gas in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide responds with water in a solution to form the weak acid, carbonic acid. Carbonic acid disassociates into hydrogen particles and bicarbonate particles.  
  • The hydrogen particles and water respond with the most basic minerals altering the minerals. The results of enduring are prevalently clays and soluble particles, for example, calcium, iron, sodium, and potassium. Bicarbonate particles additionally remain in solution; a remnant of the carbonic acid that was utilized to weather the rocks.

Explain why chemical equations have to be balanced
vivado [14]
Chemical equations are to be balanced to be able to follow the law of conservation of mass where it says that mass cannot be created or destroyed. Reactions should be that the mass of the reactants is equal to the mass of the products.

At STP, how many liters of oxygen are required to react completely with 3.6 liters of hydrogen to form water?
Delvig [45]
Should be 1.8L.
2 moles of hydrogen react with 1 mole of oxygen. If 2 moles of hydrogen is 3.6L, 1 mole of oxygen should be 1.8L.

The smallest ionic radius among the following. <br> Li<br> Mg<br> Na+<br> be+
dimaraw [331]
The correct answer is Be+

That is because it lost a single electron but still has the same number of protons, and thus the effective charge attracting each electron is greater, which in turn makes the radius even smaller

What is the mathematical relationship between color (wavelength) and energy
Setler [38]
The greater the energy, the larger the frequency and the shorter (smaller) the wavelength. Given the relationship between wavelength and frequency — the higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength — it follows that short wavelengths are more energetic<span> than long wavelengths.</span>
