It turns chemical into electricity
Answer:
a. 2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)
b. 0.957 g
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced equation
2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)
Step 2: Convert 130.0 °C to Kelvin
We will use the following expression.
K = °C + 273.15
K = 130.0°C + 273.15
K = 403.2 K
Step 3: Calculate the moles of O₂
We will use the ideal gas equation.
P × V = n × R × T
n = P × V/R × T
n = 1 atm × 0.0730 L/0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 403.2 K
n = 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol
Step 4: Calculate the moles of HgO that produced 2.21 × 10⁻³ moles of O₂
The molar ratio of HgO to O₂ is 2:1. The moles of HgO required are 2/1 × 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol = 4.42 × 10⁻³ mol.
Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 4.42 × 10⁻³ moles of HgO
The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol.
4.42 × 10⁻³ mol × 216.59 g/mol = 0.957 g
Number one would be Decades
57.1g * 6.022*10^23 / 22.9 * 2 = 7.51*10^23 molecules
