Answer:

mixture

Explanation:

A mixture is something that can be separated, while a compound is something that can be separated (unless by chemicals).

An example of a mixture would be trail mix. You can separate the components without using chemicals.

Photosynthesis by land plants leads to the fixation each year of about 1 kg of carbon on the average for each square meter of an

Rama09 [41]

Answer:

a) mass of carbon directly above 1 ( each) square meter of the earth is 1.65kg

b) all CO₂ will definitely be used up from the atmosphere directly above a forest in 1.65 years

Explanation:

first we calculate the moles of carbon

moles = mass/molar mass

= 1kg/12gmol⁻¹

= 1000g/12gmol⁻¹

= 83.33 mol

now using the ideal gas equation

we find the volume of co₂required based on 83.33 moles

PVco₂ = nRT

Vco₂ = nRT/P

Vco₂ = (83.22mol × 0.0821L atm k⁻¹ mol⁻¹ 298 K) / 1 atm

Vco₂ = 2083.73 L

so since CO₂ in air is 0.0390% by volume in the atmosphere, we find the the total amount of air required to obtain 1kg carbon

therefore

Vair × 0.0390/100 = 2038.73L

Vair = (2038.73L × 100) / 0.0390

Vair = 5.23 × 10⁶L

therefore 5.23 × 10⁶ L of air will be required to obtain 1kg carbon

Here we calculate the mass of air over 1 square meter of surface.

Remember that atmospheric pressure is the consequence of the force exerted by all the air above the surface; 1 bar is equivalent to 1.020×10⁴kgm⁻²

NOW

mass of air = 1.020×10⁴kgm⁻² × 1m²

= 1.020×10⁴kg

= 1.020×10⁷g [1kg = 10³g]

we now find the moles of air associated with it

moles = mass/molar mass

= 1.020 × 10⁷g / ( 20%×Mo₂ + 80%×Mn₂)

= 1.020 × 10⁷g / ( 20%×32gmol⁻¹ + 80%×28gmol⁻¹)

= 1.020 × 10⁷g / 28.8 gmol⁻¹

= 354166.67mol

so based on the question, for each mole (air), there is 0.0390% of CO₂

now to calculate the moles of CO₂ we say;

MolesCo₂ = 0.0390/100 × 354166.67mol

= 138.125 moles

Now we calculate mass of CO₂ from the above findings

Moles = mass/molar mass

mass = moles × molar mass

= 138.125 moles × 12gmol⁻¹

= 1657.5g

we covert to KG

= 1657.5g / 1000

mass = 1.65kg

therfore mass of carbon directly above 1 ( each) square meter of the earth is 1.65kg

to find the number years required to use up all the CO₂, WE SAY

Number of years = total carbon per m² of the forest / carbon used up per m² from the forest per year

Number of years = 1.65kgm⁻² / 1kg²year⁻¹

Number of years = 1.65 years

Therefore all CO₂ will definitely be used up from the atmosphere directly above a forest in 1.65 years

the volume of gas in a container was originally 3.24L, while at standard pressure 1.00 atm. what will the volume be if the press

Simora [160]

Hello!

To solve this problem, we will use the Boyle's Law, which describes how pressure changes when volume changes and vice-versa. The equation for this law is the following one, and we'll clear for V2:

$P1*V1=P2*V2 \\ \\ V2= \frac{P1*V1}{P2}= \frac{3,24 L * 1 atm}{1,20 atm}= 2,7 L$

So, the final volume after increasing the pressure would be 2,7 L. That means that volume decreases when the pressure increases

Have a nice day!

You made hypochlorous acid (HOCI) by mixing bleach (NaOCI) with:

Annette [7]

<u>Answer:</u> When bleach is mixed with water, it produces hypochlorous acid.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical name for bleach is sodium hypochlorite. When this compound is reacted with water, it produces hypochlorous acid and sodium hydroxide.

The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium hypochlorite and water follows:

$NaOCl+H_2O\rightarrow HOCl+NaOH$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of sodium hypochlorite reacts with 1 mole of water to produce 1 mole of hypochlorous acid and 1 mole of sodium hydroxide.

Hence, when bleach is mixed with water, it produces hypochlorous acid.

If 15 grams of Carbon dioxide is produced in a chemical reaction, how many grams of Carbon must be consumed in the reaction if w

irinina [24]

Answer:

4.13 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

Amount of CO₂ Produced = 15 g

Amount of Oxygen = 11 g

Amount of Carbon used = ?

Solution:

Suppose Carbon dioxide (CO₂) is formed by the reaction of carbon and oxygen then the reaction will be as below

C + O₂ -------------> CO₂

1 mol 1 mol 1 mol

we come to know from the above reaction that

1 mole of carbon react with 1 mole of oxygen to produce 1 mol of carbon dioxide.

molar mass of C = 12 g/mol

molar mass of O₂ = 32 g/mol

molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + 2(16) = 44 g/mol

if we represent mole in grams then

C + O₂ -------------> CO 1 mol (12 g/mol) 1 mol (32 g/mol) 1 mol (44 g/mol)

C + O₂ -------------> CO₂

12 g 32 g 44 g

So,

we come to know that 32 g of Oxygen combine with 12 g of oxygen produce 44 g CO₂

So now how much of Carbon will be combine with 11 g of oxygen

apply unity formula

32 g of O₂ ≅ 12 g of C

11 g of O₂ ≅ g of C

by doing cross multiplication

g of C = 12 g x 11 g / 32 g

g of C = 132 g / 32 g

g of C = 4.13 g

So,

4.13 g of carbon will consume to produce 15 g of Carbon dioxide.

to check this answer

we use the above information

12 g of C ≅ 44 g of CO₂

4.13 g of C ≅ g of CO₂

by doing cross multiplication

g of CO₂ = 44 g x 4.13 g / 12 g

g of CO₂ = 15g

So it is confirmed that

4.13 g of carbon will consume to produce 15 g of Carbon dioxide.
