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.

For the following reaction, 22.9 grams of nitrogen monoxide are allowed to react with 5.80 grams of hydrogen gas. nitrogen monox

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

1) Maximun ammount of nitrogen gas: $m_{N2}=10.682 g N_2$

2) Limiting reagent: $NO$

3) Ammount of excess reagent: $m_{N2}=4.274 g$

Explanation:

The reaction

$2 NO (g) + 2 H_2 (g) \longrightarrow N_2 (g) + 2 H_2O (g)$

Moles of nitrogen monoxide

Molecular weight: $M_{NO}=30 g/mol$

$n_{NO}=\frac{m_{NO}}{M_{NO}}$

$n_{NO}=\frac{22.9 g}{30 g/mol}=0.763 mol$

Moles of hydrogen

Molecular weight: $M_{H2}=2 g/mol$

$n_{H2}=\frac{m_{H2}}{M_{H2}}$

$n_{H2}=\frac{.5.8 g}{2 g/mol}=2.9 mol$

Mol rate of H2 and NO is 1:1 => hydrogen gas is in excess

1) Maximun ammount of nitrogen gas => when all NO reacted

$m_{N2}=0.763 mol NO* \frac{1 mol N_2}{2 mol NO}*\frac{28 g N_2}{mol N_2}$

$m_{N2}=10.682 g N_2$

2) Limiting reagent: $NO$

3) Ammount of excess reagent:

$m_{N2}=(2.9 mol - 0.763 mol NO* \frac{1 mol H_2}{1 mol NO})*\frac{2 g H_2}{mol H_2}$

$m_{N2}=4.274 g$

Which term represents the fixed proportion of elements in a compound

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

Chemical formula.

Explanation:

A chemical formula have fix proportion of atoms of elements.

Chemical formula:

A chemical formula is the way of presenting the chemical proportion of atoms of those elements, that combine to form a compound.

For example:

Water consist of two atom of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen. The atoms of both elements combine to form a compound i.e water. The atoms of both elements always combine in a fixed ratio which is 2:1 in molecule of water.

H₂O

2:1

Carbon dioxide consist of two atom of oxygen and one atom of carbon. The atoms of both elements combine to form a compound i.e carbon dioxide. The atoms of both elements always combine in a fixed ratio which is 1:2 in molecule of carbon dioxide .

CO₂

1;2

How do moss leaves and fish differ? How are they the same?

Lapatulllka [165]

Moss leaves and fish are different in that, the moss leave is a producer, that is, it produces its own food through photosynthesis while the fish is a consumer, it feeds on foods that are not produced by it.
Both moss and fish are the same in the sense that both have cell as their basic unit of life, that is, they both possess cells.
