Answer:

B. How many of each atom are present in the compound

D. the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other

Explanation:

In a chemical formula, chemical elements or atoms are represented by a chemical symbol for example Fe for iron and Na for sodium, and the number of each atom is represented by a subscript such as CO2, where 2 is a subscript representing 2 atoms of oxygen.

A subscript represents the number of each atom in the compound and the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other. The simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other means subscript shows the contribution of both the atoms in the compound, for example: N2 + 3H2 => 2NH3, it means the subscript showing the ratio or proportionate of atoms that is 2:2 for both nitrogen and hydrogen.

The subscript is always written below and to the right of the chemical symbol.

Hence, the correct answer is "B. How many of each atom are present in the compound and D. the simplified ratio of atoms in relation to each other"

g Gaseous ethane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 2.71 g of ethane i
Kamila [148]

Answer:

6.05g

Explanation:

The reaction is given as;

Ethane + oxygen --> Carbon dioxide + water

2C2H6 + 7O2 --> 4CO2 + 6H2O

From the reaction above;

2 mol of ethane reacts with 7 mol of oxygen.

To proceed, we have to obtain the limiting reagent,

2,71g of ethane;

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass = 2.71 / 30 = 0.0903 mol

3.8g of oxygen;

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass = 3.8 / 16 = 0.2375 mol

If 0.0903 moles of ethane was used, it would require;

2 = 7

0.0903 = x

x = 0.31605 mol of oxygen needed

This means that oxygen is our limiting reagent.

From the reaction,

7 mol of oxygen yields 4 mol of carbon dioxide

0.2375 yields x?

7 = 4

0.2375 = x

x = 0.1357

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass = 0.1357 * 44 = 6.05g

When a solid melts, why does it absorb energy?
yan [13]
In order for the molecules to actually separate from each other, more energy must be added. This energy, called heat of fusion or heat of melting, is absorbed by the particles as potential energy as the solid changes to a liquid. I hope this helps

Assume you have 4 solids (A, B, C and D) of similar mass. Which of these requires the greatest energy input to melt?
bazaltina [42]

The solid that require the greatest energy input to melt by mass is the option;

Covalent network

Solution Explanation

The elementary particles of a solid are held together by bonds that require an input of energy to unlock, and once broken, the particles are then able to change location within their containing vessels with less restrictions

Polar covalent molecular solids have the following characteristics;

a) Soluble in water b) Low melting point, b) Conduct electricity

Solids that are made up of a covalent network have the following characteristics

a) High melting point temperature b) Non conductive of electricity c) Not soluble in water

Solids of ionic compounds have the following characteristics;

a) High melting point temperature b) The liquid state and solution conducts electricity c) Soluble in water

Solids that have nonpolar covalent bonds have;

a) Low melting point b) Normally in the gaseous or liquid state b) Not water soluble

The covalent network, and the solids ionic compounds require the most energy to melt, however, the strength of the ionic bond in an ionic compound is a factor the charges present and the sizes of the atom, while the covalent network solid, are combined to <em>form essentially as a single molecule</em> and therefore require the greatest heat energy input to melt
