What is the gas produced when iron(II) sulfide is treated with a nonoxidizing acid?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Art [367]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Hydrogen sulfide

Explanation:

A nonoxidizing acid is the acid which cannot act as oxidizing agent and thus furnish hydrogen ions. Example: HCl

Iron(II) sulfide reacts with nonoxidizing acid, say hydrochloric acid to give rotten egg smelling gas, H₂S (Hydrogen sulfide).

The reaction is shown below:

FeS (s) + 2HCl (aq) ⇒ FeCl₂ (s) + H₂S (g)

A general reaction is also shown below of the reaction of Iron(II) sulfide with any nonoxidizing acid, HX as:

FeS (s) + 2HX (aq) ⇒ FeX₂ (s) + H₂S (g)

For which of the following will the entropy of the system increase?
snow_lady [41]

Answer :  The correct option is, (d) sublimation of dry ice.

Explanation :

Entropy : It is defined as the measurement of randomness or disorderedness in a system.

The order of entropy will be,

As we are moving from solid state to liquid state to gaseous state, the entropy will be increases due to the increase in the disorderedness.

As we are moving from gaseous state to liquid state to solid state, the entropy will be decreases due to the decrease in the disorderedness.

(a) Condensation of steam.

Condensation : It is a type of process in which the phase changes from gaseous state to liquid state at constant temperature.

In this process, phase changes from gaseous state to liquid state that means the degree of disorderedness decreases. So, the entropy will also decreases.

(b) Reaction of magnesium with oxygen to form magnesium oxide.

Mg(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow MgO(s)

In this reaction, the randomness of reactant molecules are more (solid+gas) and as we move towards the formation of product the randomness become less (solid) that means the degree of disorderedness decreases. So, the entropy will also decreases.

(d) Reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen to form ammonia.

N_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightarrow NH_3(g)

In this reaction, the randomness of reactant molecules are more (2 moles of gas) and as we move towards the formation of product the randomness become less (1 mole of gas) that means the degree of disorderedness decreases. So, the entropy will also decreases.

(d) Sublimation of dry ice.

Sublimation : It is a type of process in which the phase changes from solid state to gaseous state without passing through the liquid state at constant temperature.

In this process, phase changes from solid state to gaseous state that means the degree of disorderedness increases. So, the entropy will also increases.

grigory [225]
I believe sam's response is correct.
When human is riding a moving target with constant speed over a period of time, we tend to have  a visual acceleration perception due to our optical movement.
This make people such as Carrie believes that the carousel horses are accelerating while it actually stayed at constant pace.

The temparature of boiling water cannot be measured by _______ temparature
katrin [286]

Answer:

Temperature of boiling water cannot be measured by a Clinical thermometer The reason behind this is that the range of clinical thermometer varies between only 35° C to 42° C.
