Answer:

1. Iron(iii) hydroxide

2. It is a base

Explanation:

To determine the name of the compound, we must find the oxidation number Fe in the compound since the oxidation number of O is —2 in all its compound except for peroxide where it —1 and the oxidation number of Hydrogen is always +1 in all its compounds except for hydrides where it is —1. The oxidation number of Fe can calculated as follows:

Fe(OH)3 = 0

O = —2

H = +1

Fe =?

Fe + 3( —2 + 1) = 0

Fe + 3(—1) = 0

Fe —3 = 0

Fe = 3

The oxidation number of Fe in Fe(OH)3 is 3.

Therefore, the name of Fe(OH)3 is Iron(iii) hydroxide

Fe(OH)3 is a base since it contains the OH group

If an ultraviolet photon has a wavelength of 77.8 nm calculate the energy of one mole ultraviolet photon.
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

Explanation:

E = (hc)/(λ)

E = (6.624x10^(-27))Js x ((3×10^8)ms^(-1)) /

(77.8x10^(-9)m)

E = 2.55 x 10^(-11) J

A boy with pneumonia has lungs with a volume of 1.7 L that fill with 0.070 mol of air when he inhales. When he exhales, his lung
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

0.053moles

Explanation:

Hello,

To calculate the number of moles of gas remaining in his after he exhale, we'll have to use Avogadro's law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its number of moles provided that temperature and pressure are kept constant. Mathematically,

V = kN, k = V / N

V1 / N1 = V2 / N2= V3 / N3 = Vx / Nx

V1 = 1.7L

N1 = 0.070mol

V2 = 1.3L

N2 = ?

From the above equation,

V1 / N1 = V2 / N2

Make N2 the subject of formula

N2 = (N1 × V2) / V1

N2 = (0.07 × 1.3) / 1.7

N2 = 0.053mol

The number of moles of gas in his lungs when he exhale is 0.053 moles
