MgCO3---> MgO +CO2  , x mol MgCO3       
M(MgCO3)=24.3+12.0+48.0=84.3 g/mol

CaCO3--->CaO+CO2   , y mol CaCO3   
M(CaCO3)=40.0+12.0+48.0=100g/mol     
M(CO2)=44.0

x*84.3 + y*100=24.00
x*44+y*44=12.00            x+y=12/44=0.2727, x=0.2727-y
(0.2727-y)*84.3 + y*100=24.00
22.99-84.3y+100y=24.00
22.99+15.7y= 24.00,     15.7y=1.01,    y=0.06430 mol CaCO3
x=0.2727-0.06430=0.2084 mol MgCO3
0.06430 mol CaCO3*100g/mol=6.43 g CaCO3
0.2084 mol MgCO3*84.3g/mol=17.57 g MgCO3
what does it mean express your answer u?

What mass of slaked lime is needed to decompose 10 g of ammonium chloride to give 100% yield? Ca(OH)2 + 2NH4Cl → CaCl2 + 2NH3 +
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer is: mass of slaked lime is 6.92 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: Ca(OH)₂ + 2NH₄Cl → CaCl₂ + 2NH₃ + 2H₂O.

m(NH₄Cl) = 10 g; mass of ammonium chloride.

M(NH₄Cl) = 14 + 1·4 + 35.5 · g/mol.

M(NH₄Cl) = 53.5 g/mol; molar mass of ammonium chloride.

n(NH₄Cl) = m(NH₄Cl) ÷M(NH₄Cl).

n(NH₄Cl) = 10 g ÷ 53.5 g/mol.

n(NH₄Cl) = 0.187 mol; amount of ammonium chloride.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(NH₄Cl) : n(Ca(OH)₂) = 2 : 1.

n(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.093 mol.

m(Ca(OH)₂) = n(Ca(OH)₂) · M(Ca(OH)₂).

m(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.093 mol · 74.1 g/mol.

m(Ca(OH)₂) = 6.92 g.

A(n) _______________ can be formed by linking together several monosaccharides via glycosidic bonds.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

A polysaccharide (n) can be formed by linking several monosaccharides through glycosidic linkages.

Explanation:

Polysaccharides are carbohydrates or complex carbohydrates, where monosaccharides join with glucosidic bonds to form a more complex structure that would be the polysaccharide.

An example of a polysaccharide is starch, or glycogen.

Starch is found in many foods such as potatoes or rice, and glycogen is a form of energy reserve of our organism housed in muscles and liver to fulfill locomotion, physical activity, and other activities that consist of glycolysis.

Polysaccharides are degraded in our body by different stages, and several enzymes unlike monosoccharides or disaccharides, since they have more unions and a more complex structure to disarm in our body and thus assimilate it.

Polysaccharides are also part of animal structures, such as insect shells or nutritional sources, among others.

If your in a city, go inside a building immediately. most buildings have lightening rod, so the lightening voltage won't hit on you.
if you're in an open area, don't go under a tree, or it'll hit you and the tree, even if it doesn't hit you, you still cannot take the impact by the exploding tree. leave the water or metal bicycle or stuff that conducts electricity.
