Since the new oceanic crust is created at the mid-ocean ridges, then the Earth is getting bigger.

Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

It is true that new crust is being created at the mid-oceanic ridges, but this does not make the Earth any bigger despite the the growth of oceanic crusts in these regions.

The reason that Earth does not get bigger is because the same plates that are being created at the divergent plate boundaries are recycled into the mantle at the subduction zones. Because of this, the surface area of the Earth remains the same.

For the following reaction, 6.94 grams of water are mixed with excess sulfur dioxide . Assume that the percent yield of sulfurou

Alexxx [7]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

#a. Theoretical yield = 31.6 g

#b. Actual yield = 25.72 g

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

The equation for the reaction between sulfur dioxide and water to form sulfurous acid is given by the equation;

SO₂(g) + H₂O(l) → H₂SO₃(aq)

The percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 81.4%

Mass of water that reacted is 6.94 g

#a. To get the theoretical yield of H₂SO₃ we need to follow the following steps

Step 1: Calculate the moles of water

Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol

Mass of water = 6.94 g

But, moles = Mass/molar mass

Moles of water = 6.94 g ÷ 18.02 g/mol

= 0.385 mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of H₂SO₃

From the equation, the mole ratio of water to H₂SO₃ is 1 : 1

Therefore, moles of water = moles of H₂SO₃

Hence, moles of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol

Step 3: Theoretical mass of H₂SO₃

Mass = moles × Molar mass

Molar mass of H₂SO₃ = 82.08 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol

Therefore;

Theoretical mass of H₂SO₃ = 0.385 mol × 82.08 g/mol

= 31.60 g

Thus, the theoretical yield of H₂SO₃ is 31.6 g

<h3>#b. Calculating the actual yield</h3>

We need to calculate the actual yield

Percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 81.4%

Theoretical yield is 31.60 g

But; Percent yield = (Actual yield/theoretical yield)×100

Therefore;

Actual yield = Percent yield × theoretical yield)÷ 100

= (81.4 % × 31.6) ÷ 100

= 25.72 g

The percent yield of H₂SO₃ is 25.72 g

If 16.00 g of O₂ reacts with 80.00 g NO, how many the excess reactant are left over? (enter only the value, round to whole numbe

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Explanation:

We will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.

1. Gather all the information in one place with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.

Mᵣ: 30.01 32.00 46.01

2NO + O₂ ⟶ 2NO₂

Mass/g: 80.00 16.00

2. Calculate the moles of each reactant

$\text{moles of NO} = \text{80.00 g NO} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol NO}}{\text{30.01 g NO}} = \text{2.666 mol NO}\\\\\text{moles of O}_{2} = \text{16.00 g O}_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}} = \text{0.5000 mol O}_{2}$
