How are coefficients used to balance chemical equations?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Zepler [3.9K]3 years ago
4 0
According to the law of conservation of mass, the quantity of the elements, involved in chemical reactions does not change. For example,
H2O2 - > H2O + O2
is wrong, because there are two O atoms on the first side of the equation, and three on the other. To correct it, coefficients must be added, until the amount of both H and O atoms is equal on both sides.
2H2O2 - > 2H2O + O2

Find the density of a material, given that a 5.01 g sample occupies 3.46 mL
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>1.45 g/mL</h2>

Explanation:

The density of a substance can be found by using the formula

density =  \frac{mass}{volume}

From the question

mass of material = 5.01 g

volume = 3.46 mL

The density of the material is

density =  \frac{5.01}{3.46}  \\  = 1.44797687...

We have the final answer as

<h3>1.45 g/mL</h3>

Hope this helps you

What is the quantity of heat (in kJ) associated with cooling 185.5 g of water from 25.60°C to ice at -10.70°C?Heat Capacity of S
Cerrena [4.2K]

Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, sensible heat and latent heat,  the amount of heat required is 37.88 kJ.

<h3>Calorimetry</h3>

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

<h3>Sensible heat</h3>

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

<h3>Latent heat</h3>

Latent heat is defined as the energy required by a quantity of substance to change state.

When this change consists of changing from a solid to a liquid phase, it is called heat of fusion and when the change occurs from a liquid to a gaseous state, it is called heat of vaporization.

  • <u><em>25.60 °C to 0 °C</em></u>

First of all, you should know that the freezing point of water is 0°C. That is, at 0°C, water freezes and turns into ice.

So, you must lower the temperature from 25.60°C (in liquid state) to 0°C, in order to supply heat without changing state (sensible heat).

The amount of heat a body receives or transmits is determined by:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

  • c= Heat Capacity of Liquid= 4.184 \frac{J}{gC}
  • m= 185.5 g
  • ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 0 °C - 25.60 °C= - 25.6 °C

Replacing:

Q1= 4.184 \frac{J}{gC}× 185.5 g× (- 25.6 °C)

Solving:

<u><em>Q1= -19,868.98 J</em></u>

  • <u><em>Change of state</em></u>

The heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to

Q = m×L

where L is called the latent heat of the substance and depends on the type of phase change.

In this case, you know:

n= 185.5 grams× \frac{1mol}{18 grams}= 10.30 moles, where 18 \frac{g}{mol} is the molar mass of water, that is, the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

ΔHfus= 6.01 \frac{kJ}{mol}

Replacing:

Q2= 10.30 moles×6.01 \frac{kJ}{mol}

Solving:

<u><em>Q2=61.903 kJ= 61,903 J</em></u>

  • <u><em>0 °C to -10.70 °C</em></u>

Similar to sensible heat previously calculated, you know:

  • c = Heat Capacity of Solid = 2.092 \frac{J}{gC}
  • m= 185.5 g
  • ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= -10.70 °C - 0 °C= -10.70 °C

Replacing:

Q3= 2.092 \frac{J}{gC} × 185.5 g× (-10.70) °C

Solving:

<u><em>Q3= -4,152.3062 J</em></u>

<h3>Total heat required</h3>

The total heat required is calculated as:  

Total heat required= Q1 + Q2 +Q3

Total heat required=-19,868.98 J + 61,903 J -4,152.3062 J

<u><em>Total heat required= 37,881.7138 J= 37.8817138 kJ= 37.88 kJ</em></u>

In summary, the amount of heat required is 37.88 kJ.

Why does the mixture of Fe and S have different reactions than the compound FeS?
mario62 [17]

Answer:

fe+s is a mixture of iron and sulphur and it can be separated by magnetic separation. But FeS is a compound formed by heating iron and sulphur together.it can't be separated by any method.

Here are some of the differences between a mixture of iron and sulfur, and iron sulfide: the mixture can contain more or less iron, but iron sulfide always contains equal amounts of iron and sulfur. the iron and sulfur atoms are not joined together in the mixture, but they are joined together in iron sulfide.

What force attracts any two pieces of matter in the universe?
Darya [45]
Hi,

The answer is gravity.
The bigger the object is the more are other smaller objects attracted to it. The opposite of gravity is dark energy which keeps objects apart and accelerates expansion of the universe.

Hope this helps.
