Answer:

25.0 liter of nitrogen gas

Explanation:

1. Chemical equation

Ammonium nitrite is a solid compound that decomposes into nitrogen gas and water vapor as per this chemical equation:

$NH_4NO_2(s)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2H_2O(g)$

2. Mole ratio

$1molN_2(g)/2molH_2O(g)$

3. Volume ratio

Since, both species are gases and are at same temperature and pressure, the volume ratio is equal to the mol ratio.

Thus, the volume ratio is:

$1literN_2(g)/2literH_2O(g)$

4. Use the volume ratio with the known amount of water produced

$50.0literH_2O(g)\times 1literN_2(g)/2literH_2O(g)=25.0literN_2(g)$

Consider the balanced equation below.

Vikki [24]

Answer: The mole ratio of $PCl_3$ to $PCl_5$ is 1: 1

Explanation:

According to the balanced chemical equation ,the number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. The stoichiometric coefficients of the species represent their number of moles.

$PCl_3+Cl_2\rightarrow PCl_5$

Thus in the reactants, there is 1 mole of $PCl_3$ and 1 mole of $Cl_2$ molecule. And thus there is 1 mole of $PCl_5$ in the product as well.

Thus the mole ratio of $PCl_3$ to $PCl_5$ is 1: 1

C. FLOOD STAGE is reached when the water level of a stream or river exceeds its natural banks.

Flood stage is a level at which a body of water's surface has risen to a sufficient level to cause sufficient inundation in areas that are not normally covered by water, causing inconvenience or a threat to life and/or property.

In a certain chemical reaction, 2 solid Mg atoms bond with O2 gas to produce solid

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Option B. 2Mg(s) + O2 (g) —> 2MgO (s)

Explanation:

From the question given above,

We were told that:

2 solid Mg atoms bond with O2 gas to produce solid MgO.

This can be represented by an equation as follow:

2Mg(s) + O2 (g) —> MgO (s)

Next, we shall balance the above equation as follow:

2Mg(s) + O2 (g) —> MgO (s)

There are 2 atoms of Mg on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of MgO as shown below:

2Mg(s) + O2 (g) —> 2MgO (s)

Now, the equation is balanced.

Trimix 10/50 is a gas mixture that contians 10% oxygen and 50% helium, and the rest is nitrogen. If a tank of trimix 10/50 has a

Nataly_w [17]

Answer: 1.61 x 10⁴ kPa

Dalton's law states that the sum of the partial pressures of each gas equals the total pressure of the gas mixture. According to this law,

Pi = xi P

where Pi is the partial pressure of the gas i, xi is the mole fraction of the gas i in the gas mixture and P is the total pressure.

The mole fraction is defined as the quotient between the moles of solute (ni) and the total moles of the mixture (nt), which is calculated by adding the moles of all its components:

xi = $\frac{n_{i} }{n_{t} }$

In the Trimix 10/50 mix you have 10% oxygen, 50% helium and 40% nitrogen.

To calculate the total number of moles of the mixture and thus determine the molar fraction of helium, we consider 100 g and calculate the number of moles that represent 10 g of O₂ (n₁), 50 g of He (n₂) and 40 g of N₂ (n₃):

n₁ = 10 g x $\frac{1 mol}{31.998 g}$ = 0.313 mol
