Why do fire accidents take place in mines? What are the diseases caused?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Lorico [155]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Mining accidents can occur from a variety of causes, including leaks of poisonous gases such as hydrogen sulfide or explosive natural gases, especially firedamp or methane, dust explosions, collapsing of mine stopes.Dust: Very fine mineral dust particles from blasting and drilling can accumulate in the lungs, causing a disease called pneumoconiosis. An irreversible, disabling form of this disease called silicosis can occur when a miner inhales excessive amounts of crystalline silica, or quartz

Hello!
blondinia [14]

Answer:

[CO]=[Cl_2]=0.01436M

[COCl_2]=0.00064M

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given chemical reaction at equilibrium, we can set up the equilibrium expression as follows:

K=\frac{[CO][Cl_2]}{[COCl_2]}

Which can be written in terms of x, according to the ICE table:

0.32=\frac{x^2}{0.015M-x}

Thus, we solve for x to obtain that it has a value of 0.01436 M and therefore, the concentrations at equilibrium turn out to be:

[CO]=[Cl_2]=0.01436M

[COCl_2]=0.015M-0.01436M=0.00064M

Regards!

If the vapor's volume were to be incorrectly recorded as 125ml, how will this error affect the calculated molar mass of the unkn
pishuonlain [190]
Since you didn't give the actual volume (or any of the experimental values) I can only tell you how to do it. Do the calculation using the real (determined) volume of the flask. Then, re-do the calculation with v = 125ml. Take the two values and calculate % error; m = measured vol; g = guessed vol. 

<span>[mW (m) - mW (g)]/mW (m) x 100% </span>

<span>(they want % error so, if it is negative, just get rid of the sign) </span>

hat is the percentage of water in the following compound? Answer using three significant figures. Sodium carbonate decahydrate,
BigorU [14]
You need to find the whole molar mass of the compound using the periodic table to add the values. 

Na2CO3= (2 x 23.0) + 12.0 + (3 x 16.0)= 106 g/mol
H2O= 10 x [ (2 x 1.01 ) + (16.0) ]= 180.2 g/mol

the total molar mass is 106 + 180.2 = 286.2 g/mol

the percentage of water you can find by doing "parts over the whole"

H2O%= 180.2 / 286.2 X 100= 63.0%
