Answer:

37064 J

Explanation:

Data Given:

mass of Steam (m) = 16.4 g

heat released (Q) = ?

Solution:

This question is related to the latent heat of condensation.

Latent heat of condensation is the amount of heat released when water vapors condenses to liquid.

Formula used

Q = m x Lc . . . . . (1)

where

Lc = specific latent heat of condensation

Latent heat of vaporization of water is exactly equal to heat of condensation with - charge

So, Latent heat of vaporization of water have a constant value

Latent heat of vaporization of water = 2260 J/g

Latent heat of condensation of water will be = - 2260 J/g

Put values in eq. 1

Q = (16.4 g) x (- 2260 J/g)

Q = - 37064 J

So, 37064 J of heat will be released negative sign indicate release of energy

Look at the following chemical reaction and determine what is true about Mg. Click 2 that apply.

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is b. Mg is being oxidized and c. Mg is the

reducing agent.

Explanation:

Reduction is the gain of electrons

Oxidation is the loss of electrons

Reducing agent is the element that oxidizes itself and reduces another element.

Oxidizing agent is the element the reduces itself and oxidizes another element.

In this reaction:

Magnesium loses electrons so it is being oxidized and it is the reducing agent.

In a neutral solution, the concentration of H+ is<br> Group of answer choices

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

equal to [OH-]

Hydrogen ion concentration is more conveniently expressed as pH, which is the logarithm of the reciprocal of the hydrogen ion concentration in gram moles per liter. Thus, in a neutral solution the hydrogen ion (H+) and the hydroxyl ion (OH−)

How many grams of cucl2 are required to prepare 1250. g of a 1.25% (by mass) cucl2 solution?

liberstina [14]

The grams of CuCl2 required to prepare 1250g of 1.25% by mass is calculated as follow

1250 = 100%

what about 1.25%

by cross multiplication

= 1.25 x1250/100 = 15.63 grams

Debora [2.8K]

The complete balanced chemical equation is:
4 NH3 (g) + 5 O2 (g) → 4 NO (g) + 6 H2O (g)

In statement form: 4mol NH3 reacts with 5 mol O2 to produce 6 mol H2O

First let us find for the limiting reactant:
>molar mass NH3 = 17 g/mol
moles NH3 = 54/17 = 3.18 mol NH3
This will react with 3.18*5/4 = 3.97 mol O2

>molar mass O2 = 32g/mol
moles O2 = 54/32 = 1.69 mol O2
We have insufficient O2 therefore this is the limiting reactant

From the balanced equation:
For every 5.0 mol O2, we get 6.0 mol H2O, therefore

moles H2O formed = 1.69 mol O2 * 6/5 = 2.025 mol
Molar mass H2O = 18g/mol
<span>mass H2O formed = 2.025*18 = 36.45 grams H2O produced</span>
