<span>Nuclear fission is either a nuclear reaction or radio active decay process in which nucleus (the center) of an atom splits into smaller parts called nuclei. This is an extremely exothermic reaction (i.e a reaction which produces heat) resulting into release of massive amount of energy in the form of heat and sometimes light. The reaction produces much more energy as compared to a similar mass of a conventional fuel, such as Petrol/Kerosene/Petroleum Gas etc. This makes Nuclear fission an extremely dense and at times very destructive source of energy. Some common elements capable of Nuclear fission are Uranium, Plutonium etc. Though in modern days Nuclear Fission are finding application in being a source of energy (such as a Nuclear power plant), but they are also used in destructive format as Nuclear Bombs and it's one of the top most imminent threats to the existence of humanity in future (in the event of a Nuclear war).</span>

Consider the following reaction.Cr2O3(s) + 3CCl4(l) 2CrCl3(s) + 3COCl2(g). When the green solid is mixed with the colorless liq
Elena L [17]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter B

Explanation:

Reaction

                 Cr2O3(s)   +   3CCl4(l)   ⇒  2CrCl3(s)  +   3COCl2(g)

From the information given and the reaction, we can conclude that:

Green solid = Cr2O3 (s)     "s" means solid

Colorless liquid = CCl4 (l)    "l" means liquid   and is the other reactant

Purple solid = CrCl3(s)        CrCl3 is purple and "s" solid

Then, as a green specks remains it means that the excess reactant is Cr2O3, so, CCl4 is the limiting reactant.

What is the mass of oxygen in 3.34 g of potassium permanganate?
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

1.35 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

mass of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) = 3.34 g

Mass of Oxygen: ?

Solution:

First find the percentage composition of Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄)

So,

Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 39 + 55 + 4(16)

Molar Mass of KMnO₄ = 158 g/mol

Calculate the mole percent composition of  Oxygen in Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄).

Mass contributed by Oxygen (O) = 4 (16) = 64 g

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

                        Percent of Oxygen (O) = 64 / 158 x 100

                        Percent of Oxygen (O) = 40.5 %

It means that for ever gram of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) there is 0.405 g of Oxygen (O) is present.

So,

for the 3.34 grams of Potassium Permagnate (KMnO₄) the mass of Oxygen will be

                  mass of Oxygen (O) = 0.405 x 3.34 g

                  mass of Oxygen (O) = 1.35 g

In a chemical reaction, mass is conserved. this means that...
sergij07 [2.7K]
Atoms are the smallest particales of an element that can take part in a chemical reaction. During a chemical reaction no particles are created or destroyed. The atoms are simply rearranged from the reactants to the products, mass is NEVER lost or gained in chemical reactions...Mass is ALWAYS conserved. :) Hope this helped
