Answer:

it is organic

Coal is classed as an organic sedimentary rock and rocks are made from inorganic (not from living) material such as minerals. Coal is made from decomposed plants that are organic (were living)

What does the sun do to generate energy?

Kruka [31]

Within the core of the Sun, temperatures and pressures are high enough to fuse hydrogen atoms into helium, which is the Sun's main form of energy production. Assuming there was a slight mistake in where you have copied the results here the correct answer is the third option.
Hope this helps!

an aqueous solution contains 1.2mM of total ions. if the solution is NaCl (aq), what is the concentration of chloride ions?

Genrish500 [490]

Explanation:

As the total concentration is given as 1.2 mM. And, it is also given that salt present in the solution is NaCl.

As sodium chloride is an ionic compound so, when it is added to water then it will dissociate into sodium and chlorine ions as follows.

$NaCl \rightarrow Na^{+} + Cl^{-}$

So, it means in total there will be formation of 2 ions when one molecules of NaCl dissociates.

Therefore, concentration of chlorine ions will be calculated as follows.

Concentration of $Cl^{-}$ ions = $\frac{1.2mM}{2}$

= 0.6 mM

Thus, we can conclude that the concentration of chloride ions is 0.6 mM.

Be sure to answer all parts. calculate δg ocell for the reaction between cr(s) and cu2+(aq). e ocell = 1.08 j/c. enter your answ

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$\boxed{-6.29 \times10^{5}\text{ J}}$

Explanation:

Step 1. Determine the cell potential

E°/V

2×[Cr ⟶ Cr³⁺ + 3e⁻] 0.744 V

3×[Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu] 0.3419 V

2Cr + 3Cu²⁺ ⟶ 3Cu + 2Cr³⁺ 1.086 V

Step 2. Calculate ΔG°

$\Delta G^{\circ} = -nFE_{\text{cell}}^{^{\circ}} = -6 \times 96 485 \times 1.086 = \text{-629 000 J}\\\\= \boxed{-6.29 \times10^{5}\text{ J}}$

When 8.21 l of c3h8 (g) burn in oxygen, how many liters of oxygen are consumed? all gas volumes are measured at the same tempera

just olya [345]

8.21 L of C3H8(g) Lets take c as the molar volume at that temperature.
c L <><> 5c L
C3H8 (g) + 5O2 (g) --> 3CO2 + 4H2O + Q
8.21 L <><> x L
x = (8.21 * 5c)/c = 8.21 * 5 = 41.05 L O2 consumed for a 100% yield.
