SnO2 + 2 H2 ——> Sn + 2 H2O
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

0.15g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules of water = 1.2 x 10²¹ molecules

Unknown:

Mass of SnO₂  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we have to work from the known to the unknown specie;

             SnO₂   +    2H₂    →   Sn  +   2H₂O

Ensure that the equation given is balanced;

       

Now,

          the known species is water;

                  6.02 x 10²³ molecules of water  = 1 mole

                   1.2 x 10²¹ molecules of water  = \frac{1.2 x 10^{21} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }    = 0.2 x 10⁻²moles

Number of moles of water  = 0.002moles

           From the balanced chemical equation:

         

             2 mole of water is produced from 1 mole of    SnO₂  

           0.002 moles of water will be produced from \frac{0.002}{2}  = 0.001moles

To find the mass;

           Mass  = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of  SnO₂ = 118.7 + 2(16) = 150.7g/mol

        Mass  =  0.001 x 150.7 = 0.15g

Explain the measures that can be taken to ensure safety in a storm.

If your in a city, go inside a building immediately. most buildings have lightening rod, so the lightening voltage won't hit on you.
if you're in an open area, don't go under a tree, or it'll hit you and the tree, even if it doesn't hit you, you still cannot take the impact by the exploding tree. leave the water or metal bicycle or stuff that conducts electricity.

Why can’t you see the stars very well at night like you could 50 years ago
Elenna [48]

Answer:Artificial light from cities has created a permanent "skyglow" at night, obscuring our view of the stars. Here's their map of artificial sky brightness in North America, represented as a ratio of "natural" nighttime sky brightness. In the black areas, the natural night sky is still (mostly) visible.
