Chemistry
1 answer:

8 0

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.

Answer:

Option A.

2Na + 2H2O —> 2NaOH + H2

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, we shall do a head count of the number of atoms present on both side to see which of them is balanced. This is illustrated below below:

For Option A:

2Na + 2H2O —> 2NaOH + H2

Reactant >>>>>>> Product

2 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 2 Na

4 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 4 H

2 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 2 O

Thus, the above equation is balanced.

For Option B:

2Na + 2H2O —> NaOH + H2

Reactant >>>>>>> Product

2 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 1 Na

4 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 3 H

2 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 1 O

Thus, the above equation is not balanced.

For Option C:

2Na + H2O —> 2NaOH + H2

Reactant >>>>>>> Product

2 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 2 Na

2 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 4 H

1 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 2 O

Thus, the above equation is not balanced.

For Option D:

Na + 2H2O —> NaOH + 2H2

Reactant >>>>>>> Product

1 Na >>>>>>>>>>> 1 Na

4 H >>>>>>>>>>>> 5 H

2 O >>>>>>>>>>>> 1 O

Thus, the above equation is not balanced.

From the illustrations made above, only option A is balanced.

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

2 water + sugar + lemon juice → 4 lemonade

Moles of water present in 946.36 g of water=\frac{946.36 g}{236.59 g/mol}=4 mol=

236.59g/mol

946.36g

=4mol

Moles of sugar present in 196.86 g of water=\frac{196.86 g}{225 g/mol}=0.8749 mol=

225g/mol

196.86g

=0.8749mol

Moles of lemon juice present in 193.37 g of water=\frac{193.37 g}{257.83 g/mol}=0.7499 mol=

257.83g/mol

193.37g

=0.7499mol

Moles of lemonade in 2050.25 g of water=\frac{2050.25 g}{719.42 g/mol}=2.8498 mol=

719.42g/mol

2050.25g

=2.8498mol

As we can see that number of moles of lemon juice are limited.

So, we will consider the reaction will complete in accordance with moles of lemon juice.

1 mole lemon juice reacts with 2 mol of water,then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will react with:

\frac{2}{1}\times 0.7499 mol = 1.4998 mol

1

2

×0.7499mol=1.4998mol of water

Mass of water used = 1.4998 mol × 236.59 g/mol=354.8376 g

Water remained unused = 946.36 g - 354.8376 g =591.5223 g

1 mole lemon juice reacts with mol of sugar,then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will react with:

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.7499 mol = 0.7499 mol

1

1

×0.7499mol=0.7499mol of water

Mass of sugar used = 0.7499 mol × 225 g/mol = 168.7275 g

Sugar remained unused = 196.86 g - 28.1325 g

1 mole of lemon juice gives 4 moles of lemonade.

Then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will give:

\frac{4}{1}\times 0.7499 mol=2.996 mol

1

4

×0.7499mol=2.996mol of lemonade

Mass of lemonade obtained = 2.996 mol × 719.42 g/mol = 2157.9722 g

Theoretical yield of lemonade = 2157.9722 g

Experimental yield of lemonade = 2050.25 g

Percentage yield of lemonade:

\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}}\times 100

theoretical yield

Experimental yield

×100

\frac{2050.25 g}{2157.9722 g}\times 100=95.00\%

2157.9722g

2050.25g

×100=95.00%
