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

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter c

Explanation:

Data

V1 = 612 ml n1 = 9.11 mol

V2 = 123 ml n2 = ?

Formula

$\frac{V1}{n1} = \frac{V2}{n2}$

$n2 = \frac{n1V2}{V1}$

$n2 = \frac{(9.11)((123)}{(612)}$

n2 = 1.83 mol

How many moles in 4.3 x 1024 atoms of sodium (Na)?

wel

Answer:How many ions are in 2 moles of NaCl?

2 mol NaCl = 2 x 6.02 x 10 23 = 1.204 x 10 24 NaCl formula units 2 mol NaCl = 2 (2 x 6.02 x 10 23 )= 2 (1.204 x 10 24) = 2.408 x 10 24 atoms *2 moles of sodium chloride contains 2.408 x 10 24 ions (combination of Na + ions & Cl – ions). H

If you start with 0.020 g of Mg, how many moles of H2 will you make if the reaction is complete?

irina [24]

If one starts with 0.020 g of Mg, 0.0008 moles of H2 would be made if the reaction is complete.

Going by the balanced equation of reaction in the image, 1 mole of Mg will produce 1 mole of H2 in a complete reaction.

If 0.020 g of Mg is started with:

mole of Mg = mass/molar mass

= 0.020/24.3

= 0.0008 moles
