(Answer) (d) Chemical reaction rates vary with the conditions of the reaction, but nuclear decay rates do not.
Rate of a chemical reaction refers to rate of formation of products from reactions during a chemical reaction. The rates of chemical reactions depend on various factors such as temperature, pressure, concentration of reactants, presence of catalyst etc. For this reason, chemical reaction rates vary with the conditions of the reaction.
Nuclear decay rate refers to the constant ratio of the number of atoms of radioactive nucleus that decay during a certain interval of time to the total number of radioactive atoms at the beginning of the time interval. Nuclear decay rates are constant and do not vary with the conditions of the reaction.
The mass in grams of nitric acid that is required to react with 454g C7H8 is 932.72 grams
calculation
find the moles of C7H8 used
moles = mass/molar mass
= 454 g/92 = 4.935 moles
balanced reacting equation
C7H8 +3 HNO3 = C7H5N3O6 +3 H20
by use of mole ratio between C7H8 to HNo3 which is 1:3 the moles of HNO3 =4.935 x3 = 14.805 moles
mass of HNo3 = moles x molar mass
= 14.805 x 63 = 932.72 grams
part B
the mass of C7H5N3o6 = 2045.5 grams
calculate the moles of C7H8
= 829 g/92 g/mol = 9.011 moles
by use of mole ratio between C7H8 to C7H5N3O6 which is 1:1 the moles of C7H5N3O6 is also = 9.011 moles
mass of C7H5N3O6 is therefore = moles x molar mass
=9.011 x227 = 2045.5 grams
Answer: B. 1:2
Explanation: Beryllium and chlorine forms a binary ionic compound. Ionic compound is formed when a metal loses its electrons to a receiving non metal. Beryllium (metal) has two valence electrons while chlorine (nonmetal) has seven valence electrons, and so a beryllium atom has to give out its two valence electrons to attain a duplet stable structure while a chlorine atom will gain one electron to attain its stable octet structure. In the reaction between beryllium and chlorine, two atoms of chlorine have to accept the two electrons from one beryllium atom to attain their stable octet structure.
The formula of the compound formed is BeCl2.
