We are given with the mass of  pure iron that reacts with oxygen to form an oxide which has a given mass as well. the mass of oxygen reacted is 8.15-6.25 g or 1.9 grams. THen we convert the mass of the reactants to moles. Iron is equal to 0.1119 moles and oxygen is equal to 0.1188. We divide each number to the less amount. Hence iron is 1 and oxygen is approx 1. The empirical formula hence is FeO or ferrous oxide or Iron (II) oxide.

By increasing the length of heat exchanger, the effectiveness and cold stream output temperature of the heat exchanger
Dominik [7]

Answer:

Effectiveness and cold stream output temperature of the heat exchange Increases. So, Answer is b) Increases.

Explanation:

We have a heat exchanger, and it is required to compare the effectiveness and cold stream output if the length is increased.

Heat exchangers are engineering devices used to transfer energy. Thermal energy is transferred from Fluid 1 - Hot fluid (HF) to a Fluid 2 - Cold Fluid (CF). Both fluids 1 and 2 can flow with different values of mass flow rate and different specific heat. When the streams go inside the heat exchanger Temperature of Fluid 1 (HF) will decrease, at the same time Temperature of the Fluid 2 (CF) will increase.

In this case, we need to analyze the behavior taking into account different lengths of heat exchangers. If the length of the heat exchanger increases, it means the transfer area will increases. Heat transfer will increase if the transfer area increases. In this sense, the increasing length is the same than increase heat transfer.

If the heat transfer increases, it means Fluid 1 (HF) will reduce its temperature, and at the same time Fluid 2 (CF) will increase its temperature.

Finally, Answer is b) Effectiveness and cold stream output temperature increases when the length of the heat exchanger is increased.

A mixture of gaseous CO and H2, called synthesis gas, is used commercially to prepare methanol (CH3OH), a compound considered an
mr_godi [17]

Answer : The value of equilibrium constant (K) is, 424.3

Explanation :  Given,

Concentration of H_2 at equilibrium = 0.067 mol

Concentration of CO at equilibrium = 0.021 mol

Concentration of CH_3OH at equilibrium = 0.040 mol

The given chemical reaction is:

CO+2H_2\rightarrow CH_3OH

The expression for equilibrium constant is:

K_c=\frac{[CH_3OH]}{[CO][H_2]^2}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get:

K_c=\frac{(0.040)}{(0.021)\times (0.067)^2}

K_c=424.3

Thus, the value of equilibrium constant (K) is, 424.3

Part A Which acid in each of the following pairs has the stronger conjugate base? Match the words in the left column to the appr
vichka [17]

Answer:

HF

H₂S

H₂CO₃

NH₄⁺

Explanation:

<em>Which acid in each of the following pairs has the stronger conjugate base?</em>

According to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, <em>the weaker an acid, the stronger its conjugate acid</em>. Especially for weak acids, pKa gives information about the strength of such acid. <em>The higher the pKa, the weaker the acid.</em>

<em />

  • Of the acids HCl or HF, the one with the stronger conjugate base is HF because it is a weak acid.
  • Of the acids H₂S or HNO₂, the one with the stronger conjugate base is    H₂S  because it is a weaker acid. pKa (H₂S) = 7.04 > pKa (HNO₂) = 3.39
  • Of the acids H₂CO₃ or HClO₄, the one with the stronger conjugate base is H₂CO₃ because it is a weak acid.
  • Of the acids HF or NH₄⁺, the one with the stronger conjugate base is NH₄⁺ because it is a weaker acid. pKa (HF) = 3.17 < pKa (NH₄⁺) = 9.25

Compound X has a molar mass of 316.25 g*mol^-1 and the following composition:
Leokris [45]

Answer:

Compound X has a molar mass of 316.25 g*mol^-1 and the following composition:

element & mass %

phosphorus & 39.18%

sulfur & 60.82%

Write the molecular formula of X.

Explanation:

The given molecule of phosphorus and sulfur has molar mass --- 316.25 g.

Empirical formula calculation:                      

element:              phosphorus                       sulfur

co9mposition:      39.185%                            60.82%

divide with

atomic mass:          39.185/31.0 g/mol           60.82/32.0g/mol

                              =1.26mol                           1.90mol

smallest mole ratio:   1.26mol/1.26mol =1      1.90mol/1.26 mol =1.50

multiply with 2:          2                                         3

Hence, the empirical formula is:

P2S3.

Mass of empirical formula is:

158.0g/mol

Given, molecule has molar mass --- 316.25 g/mol

Hence, the ratio is:

316.25g/mol/158.0 =2

Hence, the molecular formula of the compound is :

2 x (P2S3)

=P_4S_6

The following diagrams represent mixtures of NO(g) and O2(g). These two substances react as follows: 2NO(g)+O2(g)→2NO2(g) It has
Alja [10]

This is an incomplete question, here is a complete question and an image is attached below.

The following diagrams represent mixtures of NO(g) and O₂(g). These two substances react as follows:

2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)

It has been determined experimentally that the rate is second order in NO and first order in O₂.

Based on this fact, which of the following mixtures will have the fastest initial rate?

The mixture (1). The mixture (2). The mixture (3).

Answer : The mixture 1 has the fastest initial rate.

Explanation :

The given chemical reaction is:

2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)

The rate law expression is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Now we have to determine the number of molecules of NO\text{ and }O_2

In mixture 1 : There are 5 NO and 4 O_2 molecules.

In mixture 2 : There are 7 NO and 2 O_2 molecules.

In mixture 3 : There are 3 NO and 5 O_2 molecules.

Now we have to determine the rate law expression for mixture 1, 2 and 3.

The rate law expression for mixture 1 is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Rate=k(5)^2\times (4)

Rate=k(100)

The rate law expression for mixture 2 is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Rate=k(7)^2\times (2)

Rate=k(98)

The rate law expression for mixture 3 is:

Rate=k[NO]^2[O_2]

Rate=k(3)^2\times (5)

Rate=k(45)

Hence, the mixture 1 has the fastest initial rate.
