<h3>Answer:</h3>

Na₂S(s) → 2Na⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We need to know:

<h3>What are decomposition reactions?</h3>
  • Decomposition reactions are type of reactions in which a compound is broken down into two or more products.
  • When a soluble substance or a compound is dissolved in water it forms an aqueous solution.
  • When this happens the soluble compound such as ionic compounds ionizes to form ions.
  • This is an example of decomposition reaction, since the ionic compound decomposes it ions making it.
  • For example, sodium sulfide is an ionic compound that ionizes in water to form sodium and sulfide ions.
  • That is;

Na₂S(s) → 2Na⁺(aq) + S²⁻(aq)

A. 207 kJ<br> B. 4730 kJ<br> C. 9460 kJ<br> D. 414 kJ
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 9460 \ kJ}}

Explanation:

The formula we must use is given to us:

q=mL_{vapor}

q is the energy, m is the mass, and L(vapor) is the latent heat of vaporization.

The energy is what we calculate and the mass is 2 kilograms. We need to find the latent heat of vaporization, which is on the table.

  • We know the sample is copper.
  • Find that element on the table, then the third box tells us it's latent heat of vaporization is 4730 kJ/kg

Now we know:

m= 2 \ kg \\L_{vapor}=4730 \ kJ/kg

Substitute the values into the formula.

q=(2 \ kg ) * (4730 \ kJ/kg)

Multiply. Note that the kilograms (kg) will cancel each other out.

q= 2* 4730 \ kJ

q= 9460 \ kJ

<u>9460 kilojoules</u> are required to vaporize 2 kilograms of copper.

An unknown piece of metal weighing 95.0 g is heated to 98.0°C. It is dropped into 250.0 g of water at 23.0°C. When equilibrium i
lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

C_{metal}=126.6\frac{J}{g\°C}

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when two substances at different temperature are put in contact and an equilibrium temperature is attained, we can evidence that the heat lost by the hot substance (metal) is gained by the cold substance (water) and we can write:

Q_{metal}=-Q_{water}

Which can be also written as:

m_{metal}C_{metal}(T_{EQ}-T_{metal})=-m_{water}C_{water}(T_{EQ}-T_{water})

Thus, since we need the specific heat of the metal, we solve for it as shown below:

C_{metal}=\frac{m_{water}C_{water}(T_{EQ}-T_{water})}{-m_{metal}(T_{EQ}-T_{metal})} \\\\C_{metal}=\frac{250.0g*4.184\frac{J}{g\°C}(29.0\°C-98.0\°C)}{95.0g(29.0\°C-23.0\°C)} \\\\C_{metal}=126.6\frac{J}{g\°C}

Best regards.

A container holds 6.4 moles of gas. hydrogen gas makes up 25% of the total moles in the container. if the total pressure is 1.24
klio [65]
The total pressure of the mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressure of each gas as if it is alone in the container. The partial pressure of a component of the mixture is said to be equal to the product of the total pressure and the mole fraction of the component in the mixture.

Partial pressure of hydrogen gas = 1.24 atm x .25 = 0.31 atm
Partial pressure of the remaining = 1.24 atm x (1-.25) = 0.93 atm

saw5 [17]

So if you are trying to find the coffee with the highest concentration of sugar, the cup that has the highest concentration of sugar is the cup that Sarah made on Thursday.

Since there were sugar molecules remaining at the bottom of her coffee cup, that means that the coffee solution was completely saturated with sugar - no more sugar was able to dissolve in the coffee.
