6 0

<span>Calgon conditioning is better than phosphate conditioning because it forms a water soluble complex Na2[Ca2(PO3)6] and does not form even scales.
hope this helps</span>

Consider the reaction: HCN (aq) + H2O (l) ⇄ CN- (aq) + H3O + (aq) Which of the following statements will decrease the amount of

alekssr [168]

Answer: Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

The given chemical reaction shows that hydrogen cyanide acid has been added to water which results in the formation of hydronium ion and cyanide ion.

Also, when we add a base like sodium hydroxide (NaOH) to HCN then it will help in accepting a proton ( $H^{+}$ ) from hydrogen cyanide. As a result, formation of $CN^{-}$ anion will be rapid and easy.

This will make the system not to do any extra work. So, amount of work done by system will decrease.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, add solid NaOH to the reaction (assume no volume change) will decrease the amount of work the system could perform.

He balanced equation for the reaction of acetylene, c2h2, and oxygen in an acetylene torch is 2 c2h2 + 5 o2 → 4 co2 + 2 h2o. in

pickupchik [31]

Answer: 0.4 g

Explanation:

1) Balanced chemical equation:

2) 2C2H2 + 5 O2 → 4CO2 + 2 H2O

3) mole ratios:

2 mol C2h2 : 5 mol O2

4) Convert 0.13 g C2H2 into number of moles

n = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass C2H2 = 2 *12g/mol + 2*1 g/mol = 26 g/mol

n = 0.13 g / 26 g/mol = 0.005 mol

5) Set the proportion with the unknown

5 mol O2 x
----------------- = ---------------
2 mol C2H2 0.005 mol C2H2

x = 0.005 mol C2H2 * 5 mol O2 / 2 mol C2H2 = 0.0125 mol O2

6) Convert 0.0125 mol O2 to grams

mass = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of O2 = 32 g/mol

mass = 0.0125 mol * 32 g/mol = 0.4 g

Answer: 0.4 g
