Answer: Option (A) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A compound is a substance which contains two or more different atoms combined together.

Sodium is found as sodium chloride in nature. Sodium chloride is also known as common salt.

As it contains a sodium atom combined to a chlorine atom, therefore, it is a compound.

Thus, we can conclude that sodium is the element that is found in nature only in compounds.

Given the following information, what is the concentration of H2O(g) at equilibrium? [H2S](eq) = 0.671 M [O2](eq) = 0.587 M Kc =

MAVERICK [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The equilibrium concentration of water is 0.597 M

<u>Explanation:</u>

Equilibrium constant in terms of concentration is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants each raised to the power their stoichiometric ratios. It is expressed as $K_{c}$

For a general chemical reaction:

$aA+bB\rightleftharpoons cC+dD$

The expression for $K_{eq}$ is written as:

$K_{c}=\frac{[C]^c[D]^d}{[A]^a[B]^b}$

The concentration of pure solids and pure liquids are taken as 1 in the expression.

For the given chemical reaction:

$2H_2S(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2S(s)+2H_2O(g)$

The expression of $K_c$ for above equation is:

$K_c=\frac{[H_2O]^2}{[H_2S]^2\times [O_2]}$

We are given:

$[H_2S]_{eq}=0.671M$

$[O_2]_{eq}=0.587M$

$K_c=1.35$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$1.35=\frac{[H_2O]^2}{(0.671)^2\times 0.587}$

$[H_2O]=\sqrt{(1.35\times 0.671\times 0.671\times 0.587)}=0.597M$

Hence, the equilibrium concentration of water is 0.597 M

Zinc metal (Zn) will react with aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCI aq) to produce aqueous zinc chloride (ZnCl2 aq) and hydrogen gas

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

$5$

Explanation:

Here, we want to get the equation of the reaction between Hydrochloric acid and Zinc metal

Zinc metal displaces the hydrogen from hydrochloric acid to form zinc chloride

We have the equation of reaction as:

$2HCl_{(aq)}\text{ + Zn}_{(s)}\text{ }\rightarrow\text{ ZnCl}_{2(aq)}\text{ + H}_{2(g)}$

Calcium forms ions with a charge of +2. Iodine forms ions with a charge of -1. Which of the following would represent an ionic c

Stolb23 [73]

Well you know that you have to balance out the equation to 0. So if I is -1 and Ca is +2 you know that I had to equal to -2. So you can do that by having two of them. So Ca=+2 and I2=-2 so CaI2 would equal 0 meaning that would be the correct answer. Hope that I explained that correct :)
