Meteor Showers and their. Relation to Comets. Meteors (or shooting stars) are very different from comets, although the two can be related. ... The dust and gas are pushed away from the Sun by the solar wind and radiation pressure, producing the comet's tail (which always points away from the Sun, by the way).

How many moles of H2O will be formed from the reaction of 80 g of
Roman55 [17]

Answer: 2 moles of H_2O will be formed.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} NaOH=\frac{80g}{40g/mol}=2moles

The balanced chemical equation is:

H_2SO_4+2NaOH\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of NaOH give = 2 moles of H_2O

Thus 2 moles of NaOH give =\frac{2}{2}\times 2=2moles of H_2O

Thus 2 moles of H_2O will be formed.

Determine the number of bonding electrons and the number of nonbonding electrons in the structure of cs2.
trapecia [35]
Carbon disulfide ( S=C=S)  is made up of one carbon atom and two sulfur atom. 
Carbon has 4 valence electrons while sulfur has 6 electrons. 
During bonding all the four carbon valence electrons are used in bonding while each sulfur atom contributes two electrons two the bond formation.
Therefore; 4 + 2(2) = 8 electrons are used for bonding, while 8 electrons ( four from each sulfur atom) are not used for bond formation.

Complete and balance each of the following equations for gas evolution reactions HCl(aq)+ZnS(s)>
DENIUS [597]

2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)

<h3>Further explanation  </h3>

Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:  

  • 1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.  
  • 2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product  
  • 3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1  

Reaction

HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)

1. give equation

aHCl(aq) + bZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + cH₂S(g)

2. make an equation

H, left=a, right=2c⇒a=2c(eq 1)

Cl, left=a, right=2⇒a=2⇒c=1(from eq 1)

Zn, left=b, right=1⇒b=1

So the equation :

2HCl(aq) + ZnS(s) ⇒ ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂S(g)

In a food chain, energy is passed through one link to another. When a herbivore eats only a certain fraction of the energy, (which comes from the food) it becomes new body mass; the rest of the energy is lost as waste or used up by the herbivore in order to carry out its life processes (ex. movement, digestion, reproduction). It doesn’t necessarily threaten the plants survival, there’s also a benefit. When a animals poops out the fruit (defecate) in another area those seeds get carried to new places with the help of a dab of fertilizer and a little bit of moisture. They also help supply nutrients when they die and decompose.
