Answer:

Chemical formula of the precipitate is Fe(OH)₃

Explanation:

Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are strong electrolytes and completely dissociates in water. Carbonate ions is a weak base and combines with water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻), as follows

CO₃²⁻ +  H₂O <---------------->  HCO₃⁻ + OH⁻

Ferric, Fe (III), combines with these hydroxide ions to form insoluble precipitates. Fe(OH)₃ is only partially soluble i.e., it does not completely dissociate in water. When the solutions of Fe(NO₃)₃ and K₂CO₃ are mixed together, Fe(OH)₃ precipitates out due to the strong electrostatic attraction between Fe (III) and hydroxide ions.

Given the following balanced equation, if the rate of O2 loss is 3.64 × 10-3 M/s, what is the rate of formation of SO3? 2 SO2(g)
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Rate of formation of SO₃ [\frac{d[SO_{3}] }{dt}] = 7.28 x 10⁻³ M/s

Explanation:

According to equation   2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 SO₃(g)

Rate of disappearance of reactants = rate of appearance of products

                     ⇒ -\frac{1}{2} \frac{d[SO_{2} ]}{dt} = -\frac{d[O_{2} ]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2} \frac{d[SO_{3} ]}{dt}  -----------------------------(1)

    Given that the rate of disappearance of oxygen = -\frac{d[O_{2} ]}{dt} = 3.64 x 10⁻³ M/s

             So the rate of formation of SO₃ [\frac{d[SO_{3}] }{dt}] = ?

from equation (1) we can write

                                   \frac{d[SO_{3}] }{dt} = 2 [-\frac{d[O_{2}] }{dt} ]

                                ⇒ \frac{d[SO_{3}] }{dt} = 2 x 3.64 x 10⁻³ M/s

                                ⇒ [\frac{d[SO_{3}] }{dt}] = 7.28 x 10⁻³ M/s

∴ So the rate of formation of SO₃ [\frac{d[SO_{3}] }{dt}] = 7.28 x 10⁻³ M/s

Draw the structure of 2 methyl,but-3-ene
Maslowich

Answer:

Please find the structure attached as an image

Explanation:

Based on the characteristics ending name (-ene) of the organic compound above, it belongs to the ALKENE GROUP. Alkenes are characterized by the possession of a carbon to carbon double bond (C=C) in their structure.

- But-3-ene tells us that the organic compound has four straight carbon atoms with the C=C (double bond) located on the THIRD carbon depending on if we count from right to left or vice versa.

- 2 methyl indicates that the methyl group (-CH3) is located as an attachment on the second carbon (carbon 2).

N.B: In the structure attached below, the counting is from the left to right (→).

Elenna [48]

Li2S + 2 HNO3 --> 2 LiNO3 + H2S

Li2 S  +   H2 N2 O2  -->   Li2 N2 O5   +   H2 S

Li S + H2 N2 O5 -> Li N2 O5 + H2 S

Li2 S2 + H4 N4 O10 -->  Li2 N4 O10 + H4 S2

Li^2  S^2  +  H^4 N^4 O^10  --> Li^2 N^4  O^10  +  H^4 S^2

Which statements are true?
schepotkina [342]

Explanation:

  • Evaporation is defined as a process in which liquid state of water is changing into vapor state.

So, we need to break the bonds of liquid substance in order to convert it into vapor state. And, energy is absorbed for breaking of bonds which means that evaporation is an endothermic process.

Hence, the statement evaporation of water is an exothermic process is false.

  • When a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen and leads to the formation of carbon dioxide and water then this type of reaction is known as combustion reaction.

A combustion reaction will always release heat energy. Hence, combustion reaction is exothermic in nature.

  • When energy is transferred as heat from the surroundings to the system then it means energy is being absorbed by the system. And, absorption of heat is an endothermic process for which \Delta H is positive.
  • Whereas when energy is transferred from system to the surrounding then it means energy is released by the system which is an exothermic process.

Hence, for an exothermic process value of \Delta H is negative.

Thus, we can conclude that statements which are true are as follows.

  • A combustion reaction is exothermic.
  • When energy is transferred as heat from the system to the surroundings, \Delta H is negative.
  • For an endothermic reaction Deta H is positive.
