Chemistry
1 answer:
vlada-n [284]3 years ago
7 0

1%

Explanation:

The crust is the thinnest layer of the earth accounting for only 1% total volume of the planets.

Compositionally, the earth is divided into three layers which are the crust, mantle and the core.

  • The crust is the outermost layer of the earth. It rich in silicate minerals. The rocks are classified into igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
  • The mantle takes up about 84% of the total volume of the earth. It is located in between the crust and the core. It is predominantly made up of ferro-magnesian silicate minerals.
  • The cores accounts for slightly 15% of the volume of the earth. It is the center of our geoid shaped earth. It is rich in iron and nickel metals.

Leviafan [203]

The answer is 33.33 %


The explanation:


According to the reaction equation:


MgCO3(s) + 2HCl (aq) --> MgCl2(aq) + H20(l) + CO2(g)


we can see that 1 mole of MCO3 will produce → 1 mole of CO2


-Now we need o get number of mole of CO2:


and when we have 0.22 g of CO2, so number of mole = mass / molar mass


moles = 0.22 g / 44 g/mol = 0.005 mole


∴ moles of Mg = moles of CO2 = 0.005 mole


∴ mass of Mg = moles * molar mass


= 0.005 * 84 /mol = 0.42 g


∴ Percent of MgCO3 by mass of Mg = 0.42 g / 1.26 * 100


= 33.33 %

Find the number of moles of water that can be formed if you have 210 mol of hydrogen gas and 100 mol of oxygen gas.
sukhopar [10]
<span>The answer is 200 mol of water. The balanced reaction is 2(H2) + (O2) = 2(H2O) The limiting reactant is O2 as it will be completely consumed first, before hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas would need at least 105 mol oxygen gas to be consumed; in excess of the 100 mol O2. Looking at the stoichiometric coefficients, the ratio between water and oxygen is 2:1. Therefore, the water produced would be 200 moles.</span>
