The given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

Balance the following chemical equations: A) P4+ O2 → P406 B) _P406+ LO2 → P4010 a) A reaction container holds 5.33 g of P4 and 3.77 g of O2 and reaction A occurs. If enough oxygen is available then the P406 reacts further to undergo reaction B. What is the limiting reactant for the formation of P406? b) What mass of P406 is produced (theoretical yield in grams)? c) If 7.12g of P406 were obtained what is the percent yield? d) Will reaction B occur? Why or why not? What mass of excess reactant is left in the reaction container?

Answer:

The balanced reaction will be,

A) P₄ + 3O₂ ⇒ P₄O₆

B) P₄O₆ + 2O₂ ⇒ P₄O₆

a) Based on the given information, the reaction container holds 5.33 grams of P₄ and 3.77 grams of oxygen. Thus, the moles of P₄ will be,

Moles = mass of P₄/Molar mass of P₄ = 5.33 grams/124 g/mole = 0.043 mole

Now the moles of O₂ will be,

Moles = mass of O₂/Molar mass of O₂ = 3.77 grams/32 g/mol = 0.112 mole

Now the moles of P₄O₆ formed when 0.043 moles of P₄ react completely will be = 1/1 × 0.043 = 0.043 mole of P₄O₆

Similarly, the moles of P₄O₆ formed, when 0.112 moles of O₂ react completely will be = 1/3 × 0.112 = 0.0373 mole of P₄O₆

Thus, from the analysis, the maximum moles of P₄O₆ formed will be 0.0373 moles. Therefore, oxygen will be the limiting reagent, which will react completely in the reaction.

b) From the above findings, the maximum moles of P₄O₆ produced is 0.0373 mole. Thus, the theoretical yield of P₄O₆ produced will be,

= Moles of P₄O₆ × Molar mass of P₄O₆

Theoretical yield = 0.0373 mole × 220 g/mole = 8.206 grams

c) Based on the given information, the actual mass of P₄O₆ produced is 7.12 grams.

Hence, percent yield = Actual yield/Theoretical yield * 100

= 7.12/8.206 × 100 = 86.77 %

d) In the given case, reaction B will not take place. This is due to the fact that oxygen is not left for reaction B, which was the limiting regent for reaction A. Here P₄ is the excess reactant, which was left in the reaction.

The initial moles of P₄ is 0.043, O₂ is 0.112, and P₄O₆ is O. The final moles of P₄ is 0.043 -1/3 × 0.112 = 0.0057 mole, O₂ is 0, and P₄O₆ is 0.0373 mole.

Thus, moles of P₄ left is 0.0057 mole. Hence, the mass of P₄ left will be,

= 0.0057 mole × Molar mass of P₄

= 0.0057 mole × 124 g/mole = 0.7068 grams.

lora16 [44]
Hey there!:


density  = 3.51 g/cm³

Volume = 0.0270 cm³

Therefore:

D = m / V

3.51 = m / 0.0270

m = 3.51 * 0.0270

m = 0.09477 g

If a 12-volt battery produces a current of 20 amps, what is the resistance?
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

0.6 Ω

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Current (I) = 20 A

Resistance (R) =?

From Ohm's law,

V = IR

Where:

V => is the voltage

I => is the current

R => R is the resistance

With the above formula, we can obtain the resistance as follow:

Voltage (V) = 12 V

Current (I) = 20 A

Resistance (R) =?

V = IR

12 = 20 × R

Divide both side by 20

R = 12 / 20

R = 0.6 Ω

Thus the resistance is 0.6 Ω

Write the limiting forms (or Canonical forms) of the following ions:
nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

Canonical structures of a chemical specie explain its observed properties from a valence bond theory perspective.

Explanation:

Resonance is a valence bond concept introduced by Linus Pauling to explain the observed properties of certain chemical species such as bond lengths, bond angles, bond order , etc.

There are certain chemical species for which a single chemical structure does not suffice in explaining its observed properties. For instance, the bond order in CO3^2- is about 1.33. Its bond length, shows that the C-O bond present in CO3^2- is neither a pure C-O single bond nor a pure C-O double bond. Hence the structure of CO3^2- is 'somewhere in between' three contributing canonical structures as shown in the image attached to this answer. The resonance structures of NO3^- are also shown.

Pls answer this two ASAP PLSSSSSSSS
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

1. aa

2. They have similar DNA

Explanation:

1. According to the question 1, wrinkled seeds (A) are dominant over round seeds (a) in pea plants. This means that, based on the law of dominance proposed by Mendel, wrinkled seeds will be expressed over round seeds in a heterozygous state (Aa).

However, since the round seed phenotype is a recessive trait, it will only be expressed when the alleles for round seeds (a) are the same in the gene i.e. aa genotype.

2. Based on the information in question 2, Ricky, who is working on a family tree for his school project, realizes that his close relatives all look similar in the pictures he collected. This is possible because of the SIMILARITY OF THEIR DNA (genetic material). Note that, relatives are connected by the genes that are inherited from one another, hence, they possess a similar DNA, which is the most valid reason for the resemblance.
