Answer:

The correct option is : C) limestone.

Explanation:

Carbonate rocks are a type of sedimentary rocks. The carbonate rocks are composed of carbonate minerals. The carbonate minerals are the minerals containing carbonate ion (CO₃²⁻).

The most common type of carbonate rock is limestone. Limestone is composed of the minerals calcite and aragonite, which have a different crystal form of calcium carbonate.

Therefore, Limestone is the most common type of carbonate rock.

IS THIS A BALANCED EQUATION MgCl2 + Na2O -- > MgO + 2 NaCl

Dmitriy789 [7]

Yes, this is balanced. Each part of the substance (like Mg) has the same number on both sides.

Read that From picture and tell me the answer please

Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

1g Hydrogen

Explanation:

<h3>Getting to the equation:</h3>

Calcium in water reacts vigorously to give a cloudy white Precipitate (compound) called Calcium hydroxide alongwith the evolution of Hydrogen gas.

$\boxed{ \mathsf{Ca + H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2}}$

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Balancing the equation: </h3>

This reaction is not in it's balanced form! The number of atoms of Hydrogen on the left is 2 while that on the right is 4,I.e.,they're not equal.

Adding a 2 in front of H2O solves the problem by making the number of atoms of each element on both the sides equal.

$\mathsf{Ca +2 H_2O \rightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2}$

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Observations:</h3>

Looking into the equation more carefully, we see:

1 atom of Calcium reacts with 2 molecules of water to give 1 molecule of Calcium Hydroxide alongwith 1 molecule of Hydrogen gas.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Gram atomic and molecular masses </h3>

Mass of one atom of Calcium = it's gram atomic mass

= 40 g

Mass of one "molecule" of Hydrogen

= it's Gram molecular mass

= gram mass of one atom × number of atoms in one molecule

= 1 × 2

= 2 g

So,

according to our observation:

One atoms of Calcium gives one molecule of Hydrogen (during the particular reaction)

=> 40g of Calcium gives = 2g of Hydrogen

•°• 1 g of Calcium gives = $\frac{2}{40}$

= $\frac{1}{20}$ g Hydrogen

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

<h3>Answer:</h3>

We're provided with 20g of Calcium,

=> 20g of Calcium gives = 20 × $\frac{1}{20}$ g H2

= 1 g H2

Hope this helps!

How many grams of ethanol c2h5oh can be made by the fermentation of 1150 g of glucose?

ozzi

Answer is: 588.15 grams of ethanol.
Chemical reaction: C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2C₂H₅OH + 2CO₂.
m(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 1150 g.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = m(C₆H₁₂O₆) ÷ M(C₆H₁₂O₆).
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 1150 g ÷ 180.16 g/mol.
n(C₆H₁₂O₆) = 6.38 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(C₆H₁₂O₆) : n(C₂H₅OH) = 1 : 2.
n(C₂H₅OH) = 12.76 mol.
m(C₂H₅OH) = 12.76 mol · 46.07 g/mol.
m(C₂H₅OH) = 588.15 g.

When strongly electronegative atoms, like fluorine, bond to atoms with a lower electronegativity, like hydrogen, what's the resu

olganol [36]

When highly electronegative element like oxygen is directly attached to less electronegative element like hydrogen the electrons from less electronegative elements are attracted toward the highly electronegative element, making the less electronegative element deficient in electron density (partial positive) and a partial negative charge on more electronegative element is created. In such situation the intermolecular forces formed are dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen bond interaction like in HF.

How many joules are needed to melt 50 g of ice at 0°C?

Alexeev081 [22]

Answer:

You need the Delta H fusion for water. Multiply that by 50 grams. Then multiply 50 g x 4.184 x 65 to get joules to raise water to 65 degrees. Add these values together to get total joules.
