Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid calcium carbonate (CaCO₃) i

nto solid calcium oxide and gaseous carbon dioxide. Suppose 23.0 L of carbon dioxide gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 380.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of calcium carbonate that must have reacted. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

CaCO3 (s)  → CaO (s) + CO2 (g)

The mass of carbonate that must have reacted was 43.03 grams

Explanation:

CaCO3  → CaO + CO2

Relation between reactant and product is 1:1

Let's apply the Ideal Gas Law to find out the moles of CO2 which were produced.

P . V = n . R . T

1 atm . 23 L = n . 0.082 L.atm/mol.K . 653K

(1atm . 23L) / (0.082 mol.K/L.atm . 653K) = n

0.43 moles = n

0.43 moles of CO2, were produced from 0.43 moles of CaCO3.

Molar weight of CaCO3 = 100.08 g/m

Mass = Molar weight . moles

Mass = 100.08 g/m 0.43 m = 43.03 g

This decomposition is first order with respect to phosphine, and has a half‑life of 35.0 s at 953 K. Calculate the partial press
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

0.57 atm

Explanation:

When a a reaction is first order, we have from calculus the following relation:

ln[A]t/[A]₀ = - kt

where [A]t is the concentration of A ( phosphine in this case ) after a time, t

           [A]₀ is the initial concentration of A

           k is the rate constant, and

           t is the time

We also know that for a first order reaction

           k = 0.693/ t 1/2

wnere t 1/2 is the half-life.

This equation is derived for the case when A]t/= 1/2 x [A]₀ which occurs at the half-life.

Thus, lets first find k from the half life time, and then solve for t = 70.5 s

k = 0.693 /  35.0 s = 0.0198 s⁻¹

ln [ PH₃ ]t / [ PH₃]₀ = - kt

from the ideal gas law we know pV = nRT, so the volumes cancel:

ln (pPH₃ )t / p(PH₃)₀ = - kt

taking inverse log to both sides of the equation:

(pPH₃ )t / p(PH₃)₀  = - kt

thus:

(pPH₃ )t  = 2.29 atm x e^(- 0.0198 s⁻¹ x 70.5 s ) = 0.57 atm

3.
belka [17]

Answer:

3. Inverse 1. Direct

Explanation:

P- pressure

V - volume

T - temperature

P1*V1 / T1 = P2*V2 / T2 ...... (1)

That's the general gas law with the combined ideas of charles, boyle & lussac.

Whenever you are restricted as "constant" temperature, volume, or pressure...cancel them off of your equation.

in this case 3. is indirectly telling us to cancel the temperature (T).

so we'll be left w P1*V1 = P2*V2

now notice that any relation ship that is multiplied like the one above consists of inversely related quantities. & so we conclude that-

P & V are inversely proportional or have an inverse relationship.

similarly in 1. we'll cancel p off of the general formula (1)

to be left with V1/T1 = V2/T2

also note that quantities involved in division are directly related to each other & hence the answer.

The tendency of an element to react is closely related to
Bad White [126]
C. The number of Valence electrons,
Every atom tries to follow the Octet rule i.e To have 8 electrons in its Valence shell.
Every atom tries to accomodate 8 electrons in its Valence shell to stabilize themselves, Metals usually have 1-3 eletrons in their Valence shell which they donate to non metals so their Valnce shell has 8 electroons, (The previous will now be the Valence shell and it will be full)
Similarly Non metals have 4-7 electrons, they accept electrons from metals so they can have 8 electrons in their Valence shell.
Noble gases already have 8 electrons in their Valance shell, so they do not react and stable.

Hope it helps :)

Define physical properties, and give two types of physical properties in your answer. Thx so much!
Elza [17]

Answer:

A physical property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance. Physical properties include color, density, hardness, and melting and boiling points. A chemical property describes the ability of a substance to undergo a specific chemical change.
