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

True, because most chemical reactions have more moles but not really.
Also that they decompose better. "not really"

Answer:

a) Neutralisation

b) Combustion

c) Synthesis

d) Decomposition

e) Neutralisation

f) Double Displacement Reaction

h) Single Displacement Reaction

i) Double Displacement Reaction

j) Combustion

Explanation:

Synthesis  is a reaction where various compounds/ elements react to form a totally new compound.

Decomposition is a reaction where a single compound breaks down into several components due to excessive heating or energy applied.

Single Displacement Reaction is a type of chemical reaction where an element reacts with a compound and takes the place of another element in that compound.

Double Displacement Reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds react, and the positive ions (cation) and the negative ions (anion) of the two reactants switch places, forming two new compounds or products.

Combustion is a reaction where a compound/ element oxidises in the presence of Oxygen.

Neutralisation reaction is a reaction where an acid reacts with a base to form a salt.

Why can’t you see the stars very well at night like you could 50 years ago
Elenna [48]

Answer:Artificial light from cities has created a permanent "skyglow" at night, obscuring our view of the stars. Here's their map of artificial sky brightness in North America, represented as a ratio of "natural" nighttime sky brightness. In the black areas, the natural night sky is still (mostly) visible.

If 4520 kj of heat is needed to boil a sample of water, what is the mass of water
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

1,085g of water

Explanation:

If we have the value 4520kj is because the question is related to Energy and heat capacity. In this case, the law and equation that we use is the following:

                                                  Q= m*C*Δt  where;

Q in the heat, in this case: 4520kj

m is the mas

Δt= is the difference between final-initial temperature (change of temperature), in this exercise we don´t have temperatura change.

In order to determine the mass, I will have the same equation but finding m

                                          m= Q/C*Δt    without   m=Q/C

So: m= 4,520J/4.18J/g°C

      m= 1,0813 g
