Answer:

  • <u><em>B. The voltage is the same across all resistors in the circuit.</em></u>

<u><em></em></u>

Explanation:

The answer choices are:

  • A.The current is the same across all resistors in the circuit.
  • B.The voltage is the same across all resistors in the circuit.
  • C. As more resistors are added, the current will decrease.
  • D. The sum of the voltage drops will equal the total voltage.

<h2>Solution</h2>

In a simple <em>parallel circuit</em>, each component (resistor) is connected directly to the battery forming different branches or pathways to the current.

Thus, the ends of each resistor receives the total potential difference or <em>voltage</em> from the battery, which is what the <em>statement B</em>. asserts. Hence, <em>statement B is true</em>.

On the other hand, the current will split among the different pathways, following Ohm's law: the greater the resistance of the resistor the lower the current. Thus, the <em>statement A is false</em>.

For a parallel circuit, the total resistance decreases as more resistors are added, which means that, again following Ohm's law, the current will increase, contradicting the statement C. Thus, the <em>statement C is false. </em>

It is in the series circuit that 'the sum of the voltage drops will equal the total voltage"; in a parallel circuit the voltage drop is the just one and the same for each resistor. Thus, the <em>statement D is false,</em>too.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Answer: 1. 2Al+3CuCl_2\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3Cu

2. 3 moles of CuCl_2 : 2 moles of Al

3. 0.33 moles of CuCl_2 : 0.92 moles of Al

4. CuCl_2 is the limiting reagent and Al is the excess reagent.

5. Theoretical yield of AlCl_3 is 29.3 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Al=\frac{25.0g}{27g/mol}=0.92moles

\text{Moles of} CuCl_2=\frac{45.0g}{134g/mol}=0.33moles

The balanced chemical equation is:

2Al+3CuCl_2\rightarrow 2AlCl_3+3Cu  

According to stoichiometry :

3 moles of CuCl_2 require = 2 moles of Al

Thus 0.33 moles of CuCl_2 will require=\frac{2}{3}\times 0.33=0.22moles  of Al

Thus CuCl_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Al is the excess reagent.

As 3 moles of CuCl_2 give = 2 moles of AlCl_3

Thus 0.33 moles of CuCl_2 give =\frac{2}{3}\times 0.33=0.22moles  of AlCl_3

Theoretical yield of AlCl_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.22moles\times 133.34g/mol=29.3

Thus 29.3 g of aluminium chloride is formed.

Calculate the number of sucrose molecules in a 75.0 gram sample.
zzz [600]

Answer:

1.32*10^23 molecules

Explanation:

sucrose formula: C12H22O11

molar mass: 12(12.01)+22(1.01)+11(16.00)=342.34g/mol

75.0 g C12H22O11 * (1 mol C12H22O11)/(342.34g C12H22O11)=0.219 mol C12H22O11

0.219 mol * (6.022*10^23)/mol = 1.32*10^23 molecules (three sig. figures)
