Argon is a suitable choice for light bulbs because it's inert. Compared to a reactive gas like oxygen, the metal filimant would burn up in a reactive enviroment, which is why a noble gas is used.
Answer: 12g
Explanation:
The amount of energy (Q) required to raise the temperature of a substance depends on its Mass (M), specific heat capacity (C) and change in temperature (Φ)
Thus, Q = MCΦ
Given that:
Q = 216 joules
Mass of aluminium = ? (let unknown value be Z)
C = 0.90 JºC-1g-1
Φ = (Final temperature - Initial temperature)
= 35°C - 15°C = 20°C
Then, Q = MCΦ
216 J = Z x 0.90 JºC-1g-1 x 20°C
216 J = Z x 18 J°g-1
Z = (216J/18 J°g-1)
Z = 12g
Thus, the mass of the aluminium is 12grams
Answer:
2.05moles
Explanation:
The balanced chemical equation in this question is as follows;
Sn + 2H2SO4 → SnSO4 + SO2 + 2H2O
Based on the above equation, 2 moles of H2SO4 reacted to produce 1 mole of SnSO4
However, the mass of SnSO4 produced is 219.65 grams. Using mole = mass/molar mass, we can find the number of moles of SnSO4 produced.
Molar mass of SnSO4 where Sn = 118.7, S = 32, O = 16
= 118.7 + 32 + 16(4)
= 150.7 + 64
= 214.7g/mol
mole = 219.65/214.7
mole = 1.023mol
Therefore, if 2 moles of H2SO4 reacted to produce 1 mole of SnSO4
1.023 mol of SnSO4 produced will cause: 1.023 × 2/1
= 2.046moles of H2SO4 to react.
