Answer:

Explanation:

For the balanced reaction:

4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Fe₂O₃(s).

It is clear that 4 mol of Fe react with 3 mol of O₂ to produce 2 mol of Fe₂O₃.

Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 35.8 grams of Fe metal:

no. of moles of Fe = mass/molar mass = (35.8 g)/(55.845 g/mol) = 0.64 mol.

Now, we can find the no. of moles of O₂ is needed to react with the proposed amount of Fe:

Using cross multiplication:

4 mol of Fe is needed to react with → 3 mol of O₂, from stichiometry.

0.64 mol of Fe is needed to react with → ??? mol of O₂.

∴ The no. of moles of O₂ needed = (3 mol)(0.64 mol)/(4 mol) = 0.48 mol.

Finally, we can get the volume of oxygen using the information:

It is known that 1 mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L at standard P and T (STP).

Using cross multiplication:

1 mol of O₂ occupies → 22.4 L, at STP conditions.

0.48 mol of O₂ occupies → ??? L.

∴ The no. of liters of O₂ = (0.48 mol)(22.4 L)/(1 mol) = 10.752 L.

What is the correct symbol of an ion containing 17 protons,20 neutrons and 18 electrons

Nataliya [291]

Answer:

The symbol of the ion is A^-

Explanation:

Let A be the symbol of the element.

Proton = 17

Electron = 18

Neutron = 20

Since the element has more electrons than protons, it means it has gain electrons.

From the question given,

The difference between the electron and proton = 18 — 17 = 1

So, the element has gain 1 electron.

Therefore the symbol of the ion is A^-

When an electron is displaced in a semiconductor, the hole that's left behind is

geniusboy [140]

answer is A : attracted to the negative terminal of the voltage source
I think, that the "hole"moves as it captures a free electron leaving another hole in a slightly different place. The electron leaving leaves a net + charge, which is attracted to the negative terminal. Because the "hole" behaves as a positive charge it is attracted towards the negative terminal.

What mass of water could be warmed from 21.4 degrees celsius to 43.4 degrees celsius by the pellet dropped inside it? Heat capac

Artist 52 [7]

42.34 g of water could be warmed from 21.4°C to 43.4°C by the pellet dropped inside it

Heat loss by the pellet is equal to the Heat gained by the water.

$q_{w} = -q_{p}$ ….(1)

where, $q_{w}$ is the heat gained by water

$q_{p}$ is the heat loss by pellet

$q_{w}$ = mCΔT

where m = mass of water

C = specific heat capacity of water = 4.184 J/g-°C

ΔT = Increase in temperature

ΔT for water = 43.4 - 21.4 = 22°C

$q_{w}$ = m × 4.184 × 22 …. (2)

Now

$q_{p}$ = $H_{c}$ ×ΔT

where $H_{c}$ = Heat capacity of pellet = 56J/°C

Δ T for pellet = 43.4 - 113 =- 69.6°C

$q_{p}$ = 56 × -69.6 = -3897.6 J

From equation (1) and (2)

-m× 4.184 × 22 =-3897.6

m= 42.34 g

Hence, 42.34 g of water could be warmed from 21.4 degrees Celsius to 43.4 degrees Celsius by the pellet dropped inside it.

A hollow conductor is positively charged. A small uncharged metal ball is lowered by a silk thread (insulating material) through

laiz [17]

Answer: Option (E) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Since, the conductor is hollow which means that it is opened on both the ends. Hence, when a small uncharged metal ball is passed through it with the help of a silk thread then due to the presence of this insulating thread the ball will not come directly in contact with the charged rod.

As a result, there will occur no formation of opposite charge on the metal ball. Therefore, the ball will remain uncharged in nature.

Thus, we can conclude that after the given ball is removed, it will have no appreciable charge.
