Answer:

2H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Hydrogen sulfide = H2S

Oxygen = O2

sulfur dioxide = SO2

water = H2O

Step 2: The unbalanced equation

H2S + O2 → SO2 + H2O

Step 3: Balancing the equation

H2S + O2 → SO2 + H2O

On the left side we have 2x O (in O2) and on the right side we have 3x O (2x in SO2 and 1x in H2O). To balance the amount of O, we have to multiply O2 (on the left side) by 3 and SO2 and H2O on the right side by 3.

H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O

On the right side we have 4x H and on the left side we have 2x H. To balance the amount of H, we have to multiply H2S by 2.

Now the equation is balanced.

2H2S + 3O2 → 2SO2 + 2H2O

A physical change will not change the chemical make-up of the material. the change will not produce a new substance.

On a summer day early in the moming, a balloon is filled with helium when the temperature
MAXImum [283]

Based on the data provided;

  • number of moles of helium gas is 1.25 moles
  • pressure at peak temperature is 259.3 kPa
  • internal pressure is above 256 kPa, therefore, the balloon will burst.
  • pressure should be reduced to a value less than 256 kPa by reducing the temperature

<h3>What is the ideal has equation?</h3>

The ideal gas equation relatesthe pressure, volume, moles and temperature of a gas.

The moles of helium gas is calculated using the Ideal gas equation:

  • PV = nRT

n is the number of moles of gas

R is molar gas constant = 8.314 L⋅kPa/Kmol

P is pressure = 239 kPa

T is temperature = 21°C = 294 K

V is volume = 12.8 L

Therefore;

n = PV/RT

n = 239 × 12.8 / 8.314 × 294

n = 1.25 moles

The number of moles of helium gas is 1.25 moles

At peak temperature, T = 46°C = 319 K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

P2 = P1T2/T1

P2 = 239 × 319/294

P2 = 259.3 kPa

The pressure at peak temperature is 259.3 kPa

At 42°C, T = 315 K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

P2 = P1T2/T1

P2 = 239 × 315/294

P2 = 256.07 kPa

Since the internal pressure is above 256 kPa, the balloon will burst.

The pressure should be reduced to a value less than 256 kPa by reducing the temperature.

Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium with hydrochloric acid (HCI (aq) to form Magnesium chloride and
ivann1987 [24]
Mg (s)       +    HCl (aq)    →  MgCl₂(s)   + H₂(g)

Looking at the equation :

We have 1 Mg at the left hand side and 1 Mg as well on the right hand side.
So that is balanced. 

We have 1 H at the left hand side and 2 H on the right hand side.
So that is not balanced.  Same for Chlorine. Cl.

We add 2 to the HCl on the left hand side and that balances it.

Mg(s)       +    2HCl(aq)    →  MgCl₂(s)  + H₂(g)

Now that Snape and Dumbledore has taught you the finer points of hydration calculations they have a slightly more challenging pr
Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

The value of an integer x in the hydrate is 10.

Explanation:

Molarity=\frac{Moles}{Volume(L)}

Molarity of the solution = 0.0366 M

Volume of the solution = 5.00 L

Moles of hydrated sodium carbonate = n

0.0366 M=\frac{n}{5.00 L}

n=0.0366 M\times 5 mol=0.183 mol

Mass of hydrated sodium carbonate = n= 52.2 g

Molar mass of hydrated sodium carbonate = 106 g/mol+x18 g/mol

n=\frac{\text{mass of Compound}}{\text{molar mass of compound}}

0.183 mol=\frac{52.2 g}{106 g/mol+x\times 18 g/mol}

106 g/mol+x\times 18 g/mol=\frac{52.2 g}{0.183 mol}

Solving for x, we get:

x = 9.95 ≈ 10

The value of an integer x in the hydrate is 10.
