Answer:

Barometric pressure is 942.3 cm of column of water.

Explanation:

We can measure barometric pressure by measuring the height h of a column of fluid (this column of fluid exerts the same pressure as the column of air of which we are measuring pressure) using the following formula:

P = \rho*g*h\\

Where ρ is the density of the fluid used and g the acceleration of gravity.

Knowing that both the column of mercury (to match units, we know that 698 mmHg are the same as 69.8 cmHg) and the column of water are representing the same pressure, we can match expressions and find h for the column of water:

\rho_{Hg} *g*h_{Hg} =\rho_{Water} *g*h_{Water}\\ \\h_{Water}=\frac{rho_{Hg} *g*h_{Hg}}{\rho_{Water} *g} = \frac{13.5g/mL *9.8m/s^{2} *69.8cm}{1g/mL *9.8m/s^{2}}=942.3 cmH_{2}O

Hydrogen iodide, HI, is formed in an equilibrium reaction when gaseous hydrogen and iodine gas are heated together. If 20.0 g of
Kaylis [27]

Answer: D. 19.9 g hydrogen remains.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of H_2

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{20.0g}{2g/mol}=10.0moles

b) moles of I_2

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{20.0g}{254g/mol}=0.0787moles

H_2(g)+I_2(g)\rightarrow 2HI(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of I_2 require 1 mole of H_2

Thus 0.0787 moles of l_2 require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0787=0.0787moles of H_2

Thus l_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and H_2 acts as the excess reagent. (10.0-0.0787)= 9.92 moles of H_2are left unreacted.

Mass of H_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=9.92moles\times 2.01g/mol=19.9g

Thus 19.9 g of H_2 remains unreacted.

A strontium-90 atom that has a lost two electrons has __________ protons, __________ neutrons, and __________ electrons.
MAXImum [283]
<span><em>Answer:</em>
A strontium-90 atom that has a lost two electrons has <u>38</u> protons, <u>52</u> neutrons, and <u>36</u> electrons.

<em>Explanation:
</em>Atomic number<em> of </em>Strontium (Sr) is 38. 
<em>Atomic number = number of protons 
</em>Hence, Strontium has 38 protons.

If the element is in neutral state,
                number of protons = number of electrons. 
Then, neutral Strontium atom should have 38 electrons. 
But the question says Sr has lost 2 electrons. Hence, number of electrons should be 38 - 2 = 36.

Mass number = number of protons + number of neutrons.

The given mass number is 90. Hence, number of neutrons should be 90 - 38 = 52.</span>

The concentration of hydronium ions is greater than 1 × 10–7 for basic solutions. True False
Nataly [62]

Answer : The given statement is, false.

Explanation :

Ionic product of water : It is defined as the product of the concentration of hydrogen ion and the concentration of hydroxide ion.

The mathematical expression will be,

[H^+][OH^-]=10^{-14}

When the concentration of hydrogen ion and hydroxide ion are equal then the solution is neutral and the value will be, 1\times 10^{-7}. And the pH of the solution is, 7.

When the concentration of hydrogen ion is greater than 1\times 10^{-7} then the solution is acidic in nature. And the pH of the solution is, less than 7.

When the concentration of hydrogen ion is less than 1\times 10^{-7} then the solution is basic in nature. And the pH of the solution is, greater than 7.

Hence, the given statement is false.
