Which of the following is the best example of chemical weathering?

Chemistry
1 answer:
shepuryov [24]4 years ago
4 0

Answer: A. Limestone rocks dissolving in water

Explanation:

B: This is a physical change; it changes an object physically rather than chemically. It does not change the composition of the concrete, only the shape.

C: This is also a physical change because the water is just dragging sand with it, but not actually changing the composition of it.

D: Similar to option B, this is an example of physical weathering because the ice only divides the rock into different parts but doesn't change the composition or complexity of it.

Balance these chemical equations mg(s)_ + _N2(g) = _mg3N2
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

3 Mg(s) + N_2(g) = Mg_3N_2(s)

Explanation:

The valance of magnesium atom is  +2

While the valence of nitrogen atom is - 3

Let us first write the first  half-reactions

Mg ---> Mg^{2+} + 2e^{-}

The second half reaction is

2N + 6e^-  -----> N_2

Adding the above two reactions and writing the final reaction, we get -

Mg + N2 = Mg_3N_2

The balance equation is

3 Mg(s) + N_2(g) = Mg_3N_2(s)

Mg (50.0 g) and HCI (75.0 g) were added together to produce MgCl2 and H2
zimovet [89]

Answer:

Mass of hydrogen produced  = 2.1 g

Mass of excess reactant left = 25.2 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Mg = 50.0 g

Mass of HCl = 75.0 g

Mass of hydrogen produced = ?

Mass of excess reactant left = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Mg + 2HCl      →       MgCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Mg:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g/ 24 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.1 mol

Number of moles of HCl:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 75 g/ 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.1 mol

now we will compare the moles of hydrogen gas with both reactant.

                     Mg       :        H₂

                       1          :       1

                     2.1         :     2.1

                   HCl         :        H₂

                      2          :          1

                    2.1          :        1/2×2.1 = 1.05 mol

HCl is limiting reactant and will limit the yield of hydrogen gas.

Mass of hydrogen:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass=  1.05 mol ×2 g/mol

Mass = 2.1 g

Mg is present in excess.

Mass of Mg left:

         HCl            :           Mg

             2             :            1

            2.1            :         1/2×2.1 = 1.05

Out of 2.1 moles of Mg 1.05 react with HCl.

Moles of Mg left = 2.1 mol - 1.05 mol = 1.05 mol

Mass of Mg left:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 1.05 mol × 24 g/mol

Mass = 25.2 g

What is the pH of ammonia? I know the pH of ammonia varies depending on concentration, so what's the pH of pure ammonia?
musickatia [10]
NH3 is a gas at room temperature. Solutions of "ammonia" are made by bubbling NH3 through water, so there's no "pure ammonia" unless you are talking about the gas.

What is the mass (g) of 500.ml water if the density is 0.9901 g/ml?
kow [346]

Explanation:

Mass = Density × Volume

where volume = 500ml and....

Density = 0.9901 g/ml

Mass = 0.9901 × 500

Mass = 495.05 g
