A low-pressure area, or "low", is a region where the atmospheric pressure at sea level is below that of surrounding locations. Low-pressure systems form under areas of wind divergence that occur in upper levels of the troposphere.

identify each material as a compound or a mixture. Caffeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed rat

vitfil [10]

Answer: caffeine is a compound.

Explanation:

1) As stated c<span>affeine contains hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen atoms in a fixed ratio.

2) The definition of compound is a pure substance formed by chemical bonding of two or more fifferent elements. That means a defined ratio of the elements in the compound, which conferes uniform and equal properties to every part of the compound.

Some examples of compounds are salt (NaCl), water (H2O), vinegard (CH3 COOH).

A mixture combines several elements or compounds, not bonded by chemical bonds but mixed in ratios which may vary.

2. What mass of sodium chloride is produced when chlorine gas reacts with 2.29 grams of sodium iodide? The unbalanced equation i

Damm [24]

Answer:

0.88g

Explanation:

The reaction equation:

2NaI + Cl₂ → 2NaCl + I₂

Given parameters:

Mass of Sodium iodide = 2.29g

Unknown:

Mass of NaCl = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we work from the known to the unknown.

First find the number of NaI from the mass given;

Number of moles = $\frac{mass}{molar mass}$

Molar mass of NaI = 23 + 126.9 = 149.9g/mol

Now insert the parameters and solve;

Number of moles = $\frac{2.29}{149.9}$ = 0.015mol

So;

From the balanced reaction equation;

2 moles of NaI produced 2 moles of NaCl

0.015mole of NaI will produce 0.015mole of NaCl

Therefore;

Mass = number of moles x molar mass

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

Now;

Mass of NaCl = 0.015 x 58.5 = 0.88g
