What happens when balloon filled with CO2 is released in air

1 answer:

5 0

I don’t actually know for sure, but I think it would sink. Most of the mass of the molecule is from the oxygen.
Amu of O2 = 32
Amu of C = 12
And since most of the balloon is oxygen, it has no reason to actually float. It would be denser than the air, I’d imagine. I could be totally wrong here, I’m guessing based on my knowledge of chemistry

Use the following half-reactions to construct a voltaic cell:

velikii [3]

Answer: The correct answer is $3Ag^+(aq.)+Cr(s)\rightarrow 3Ag(s)+Cr^{3+}(aq.);E^o_{cell}=+1.53V$

Explanation:

We are given:

$Cr^{3+}(aq.)+3e^-\rightarrow Cr(s);E^o=-0.73V\\\\Ag^+(aq.)+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o=+0.80V$

The substance having highest positive $E^o$ potential will always get reduced and will undergo reduction reaction. Here, silver will always undergo reduction reaction will get reduced.

Chromium will undergo oxidation reaction and will get oxidized.

The half reactions for the above cell is:

Oxidation half reaction: $Cr(s)\rightarrow Cr^{3+}+3e^-;E^o_{Cr^{3+}/Cr}=-0.73V$

Reduction half reaction: $Ag^{+}+e^-\rightarrow Ag(s);E^o_{Ag^{+}/Ag}=0.80V$ ( × 3)

Net equation: $3Ag^+(aq.)+Cr(s)\rightarrow 3Ag(s)+Cr^{3+}(aq.)$

Oxidation reaction occurs at anode and reduction reaction occurs at cathode.

To calculate the $E^o_{cell}$ of the reaction, we use the equation:

$E^o_{cell}=E^o_{cathode}-E^o_{anode}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$E^o_{cell}=0.80-(-0.73)=1.53V$

Hence, the correct answer is $3Ag^+(aq.)+Cr(s)\rightarrow 3Ag(s)+Cr^{3+}(aq.);E^o_{cell}=+1.53V$

Which pair of elements have the same valence electronic configuration of np³?

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

We can determine the number of valence electrons of an element:

If it belongs to Groups 1 and 2, the number of valence electrons is equal to the number of group and the differential electron occupies the s subshell.

If it belongs to the groups 13-18, the number of valence electrons is equal to: "Number of group - 10" and the differential electron occupies the p subshell.

Which pair of elements have the same valence electronic configuration of np³?

(a) O and Se. NO. They belong to the group 16 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np⁴.

(b) Ge and Pb. NO. They belong to the group 14 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np².

(d) K and Mg. NO. They belong to the groups 1 and 2 and the valence electron configuration is ns¹ and ns².

(e) Al and Ga. NO. They belong to the group 13 and the valence electron configuration is ns² np¹.

A circle has a radius of 5 feet and a central angle AOB that measures 10°. What is the length of the intercepted arc AB? Use 3.1

algol [13]

We are asked to solve for the arc length of the intercepted arc and the formula is shown below:
Arc length = 2*pi*r(central angle/360°)
r = 5 feet
central angle = 10°

Solving for the arc length, we have:
Arc length = 2*3.14*5 (10/360)
Arc length = 0.872 feet

The arc length is 0.872 feet.
