The question is asking us to determine what gives the Amethyst its purplish color. Amethyst colors range from light to dark purple. The most highly regarded are the transparent deep purple colors. Amethyst ( chemical formula: Si O2 ) is the purple variety of the mineral Quartz.The pure Quartz is often colorless. Amethyst gets its purplish color because of the presence of Iron ( Fe ) and other impurities in the gem. Answer: C. Iron.<span /><span />

How many grams of Kr are in a 9.59 L cylinder at 46.0 'C and 4.62 atm?<br> mass:
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Mass = 141.6 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Kr in gram =  ?

Volume in L = 9.59 L

Temperature = 46.0°C

Pressure = 4.62 atm

Solution:

The given problem will be solve by using general gas equation,

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

46.0+273 = 319 K

4.62 atm × 9.59 L = n× 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  ×319 K

44.3 atm.L = n×26.19 atm.L/ mol

n = 44.3 atm.L / 26.19 atm.L/ mol

n = 1.69 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.69 mol × 83.79 g/mol

Mass = 141.6 g

When hydrochloric acid is poured over potassium sulfide, 42.5 mL of hydrogen sulfide gas is produced at a pressure of 756 torr a
EastWind [94]
<h2>Answer:</h2>0.1899grams

<h2>Explanations:</h2>

The balanced chemical reaction between hydrochloric acid and potassium sulfide is as shown:

K_2S+2HCl\to H_2S+2KCl

Based on stoichiometry, we can see that 1 mole of potassium sulfide reacted to form 1 mole of hydrogen sulfide.

Get the mole of hydrogen sulfide gas (H2S) using the ideal gas equation expressed as:

\begin{gathered} PV=\text{nRT} \\ n=\frac{PV}{RT} \end{gathered}

P is the pressure of the gas (in atm) = 0.994737atm (756torr)

V is the volume of the gas = 42.5mL = 0.0425L

T is the temperature (in Kelvin) = 26 + 273 = 299K

R is the gas constant = 0.0821 L*atm/mole * K

Substitute these values into the formula as shown:

\begin{gathered} n=\frac{0.994737\cancel{\text{atm}}\times0.0425\cancel{L}}{0.0821\frac{\cancel{L}\cdot\cancel{\text{atm}}}{\text{mole}\cdot\cancel{K}}\times299\cancel{K}} \\ n=\frac{0.994737\times0.0425}{0.0821\times299} \\ n=\frac{0.0422763225}{24.5479} \\ n=0.00172\text{moles} \end{gathered}

Since the number of moles of hydrogen sulfide is 0.00172moles, the number of moles of potassium sulfide will also be 0.00172 moles (based on stoichiometry)

Get the mass of potassium sulfide that reacted using the formula:

\text{Mass}=number\text{ of moles}\times molar\text{ mass}

Number of moles of K2S = 0.00172 moles

Molar mass of K2S = 110.262 g/mol

Substitute into the formula for calculating the mass;

\begin{gathered} \text{Mass}=0.00172\cancel{\text{moles}}\times\frac{110.262g}{\cancel{\text{mole}}} \\ \text{Mass}=0.1899\text{grams} \end{gathered}

Therefore the mass of potassium sulfide that reacted (in grams) is approximately 0.1899grams
