Answer:The correct answer is option:

'A resource that cannot be replenished in a short period of time'.

Explanation:

Renewable resources: Resources which are capable of restoring themselves overtime through natural process.They never get exhausted completely.For example: bio mass energy, solar energy etc.

Non-Renewable resources: Resources that cannot be replenished overtime through natural process.These are the resources which are used in wise manner so that to prevent their exhaustion. For example: coal, petroleum etc.

Hence, from the given the options the correct answer is :

'A resource that cannot be replenished in a short period of time'.

In which compound is the percent by mass of oxygen greatest?

Licemer1 [7]

Answer: BeO

Explanation:

percent by mass of oxygen $=\frac{\text {mass of oxygen}}{\text {Total mass of substance}}\times 100\%$

percent by mass of oxygen in BeO $=\frac{16g}{25.01g/mol}\times 100=63.97\%$

percent by mass of oxygen in MgO $=\frac{16g}{40.30g/mol}\times 100=39.70\%$

percent by mass of oxygen in CaO $=\frac{16g}{56.08g/mol}\times 100=28.53\%$

percent by mass of oxygen in SrO $=\frac{16g}{103.62g/mol}\times 100=15.44\%$

2. 15.65 grams of KCl is formed if 25.0 g of Potassium Chlorate, KClO3, decompose.

3. 2.17 moles of H2 gas produced when 100.0 grams of Na is added to the reaction.

4. 7.5 moles of Hydrogen, H2, are needed to react with 2.5 moles of Nitrogen, N2.

Explanation:

2. The balanced equation for the chemical reaction is:

2KClO3 ⇒ 2KCl + 3O2

Data given:

mass of KClO3 = 25 grams, atomic mass of KClO3 = 122.55 grams/mole

KCl produced =? atomic mass of KCl = 74.55

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of one mole}$

= $\frac{25}{122.55}$

number of moles = 0.20 moles of KCO3

2 moles of KClO3 decomposes to give 2KCl

0.21 moles of KClO3 decomposes to give x moles of KCl

$\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{x}{0.21}$

x = 0.21 moles of KCl

mass of KCl = 0.21 x 74.55

= 15.65 grams of KCl is formed.

3. data given:

2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

mass of Na added = 100 grams, atomic mass of Na = 22.98 grams/mole

moles of H2 =?

Number of moles of Na = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of one mole}$

= $\frac{100}{22.98}$

number of moles of Na = 4.35 moles

2 moles of Na gives 1 mole of H2

4.35 moles of Na will give x moles

$\frac{1}{2}$ = $\frac{x}{4.35}$

2x = 4.35

x = 2.17 moles of hydroden gas is produced.

4. Data given:

the balanced chemical equation:

N2 + 3H2 → 2NH3

Number of moles of N2 2.5

from the reaction

1 mole of N2 reacts with 3 moles of H2

The molar ratio of the reactant is 1:3

so, $\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{2.5}{x}$

x = 7.5 moles of H2 will react with 2.5 moles of N2.
