To get the empirical formula of this compound, we take a basis of 100 grams which means each percentage is equivalent to 1 gram. Hence there is 32.39 grams sodium, 22. 53 grams sulfur and 45.07 grams oxygen. We convert each mass to their moles by dividing by their respective molar mass. Na: 1.408, S:0.704 and O:2.82. divide each with the lowest: Na: 2: S: 1 and O:4. Hence the formula is Na2SO4.

How many mL of 0.506 M HClare needed to dissolve 9.85 g of BaCO3?
Blababa [14]

Answer:

197mL of 0,506M HCl

Explanation:

The reaction of HCl + BaCO₃ is:

BaCO₃(s) + 2HCl → BaCl₂(aq) + CO₂ + H₂O.

The moles of BaCO₃ in 9,85 g are:

9,85 g of BaCO₃ × \frac{1mol}{197,34 g} = <em>0,0499 moles of BaCO₃</em>

As 1 mol of BaCO₃ reacts with two moles of HCl, for a complete reaction of BaCO₃ to dissolve this compound in water you need:

0,0499 moles of BaCO₃ × \frac{2molHCl}{1molBaCO_{3}} =<em> 0,0998 moles of HCl</em>

If you have a 0,506M HCl, you need to add:

0,0998 moles of HCl× \frac{1L}{0,506moles} = 0,197 L ≡ 197mL

I hope it helps!

Match the following chemical reactions:
S_A_V [24]

Answer:

Synthesis - 4

reversible- 2

exchange- 1

decomposition-3

Explanation:

In synthesis reaction two or more components combines to form a single product. example 2H2+O2⇒2H2O

In reversible reaction two reactants combine to form two products . The products then reacts and forms back the reactants. example N2 +3H2 ⇒2NH3

In exchange reaction there is an alternation of ions of reactants to form new products. AB+CD ⇒AC + BD

In decomposition reaction, molecules of a compound break down by the action of heat or light or catalyst. example CaCO3 ⇒CaO +CO2

We have 1700 Tonnes of Amoniac every day. How many tonnes of 63% Nitrogen soda we can get?

There are 3 equations involved in manufacturing Nitric Acid from Ammonia. 

First the ammonia is oxidized:
4NH3 + 5O2 = 4NO + 6H2O

Then for the absorption of the nitrogen oxides.
2NO + O2 = N2O4

Lastly, the N2O4 is further oxidized into Nitric acid.
3N2O4 + 2H2O = 4HNO3 + 2NO

Then run stoichiometry through these equations.
The first equation produces roughly 271,722,938 grams of NO
The second equation produces roughly 416,606,944 grams of N2O4
The last equation produces roughly 380,412,294 grams of HNO3 (nitric acid)

Convert the exact number back into tons, and your answer is: 419.332775 tons.

Rounded, I'm going to say that's 419.33 tons.
Hope this helps! :)

Also, it seems that commercially, Nitric Acid is commonly made by bubbling NO2 into water, rather than using ammonia.

Which of the following is NOT true of white dwarfs?
liq [111]

Answer:

A white dwarf is what stars like the Sun become after they have exhausted their nuclear fuel. Near the end of its nuclear burning stage, this type of star expels most of its outer material, creating a planetary nebula. Only the hot core of the star remains. ... That means a white dwarf is 200,000 times as dense.

Explanation:

they are cold

they are about the size of Earth

these both are not true
