Answer:

1. The balanced equation is given below:

CaCO3 —> CaO + CO2

2. The coefficients are: 1, 1, 1

Explanation:

Step 1:

The word equation is given below:

calcium carbonate decomposes to produce calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.

Step 2:

The elemental equation. This is illustrated below:

Calcium carbonate => CaCO3

calcium oxide => CaO

carbon dioxide => CO2

CaCO3 —> CaO + CO2

A careful observation of the above equation shows that the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 1, 1, 1

Answer this correctly, only sincere answers please. I really need help. I will do all I can to make someone answer this. Thanks!
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Let us recall that;

[H^+] [OH^-] = 1 * 10^-14

Where;

[OH^-] = 1 x 10^-11

Then;

[H^+] = 1 * 10^-14/1 x 10^-11

[H^+] = 1 * 10^-3

pH = -log [H^+]

pH = -log(1 * 10^-3)

pH = 3

Also;

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH

pOH = 14 -3

pOH = 11

At 1000 K, a sample of pure NO2 gas decomposes. 2 NO2(g) equilibrium reaction arrow 2 NO(g) + O2(g) The equilibrium constant KP
kirill115 [55]

<u>Answer:</u> The pressure of NO and NO_2 in the mixture is 0.58 atm and 0.024 atm respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Equilibrium partial pressure of O_2 = 0.29 atm

For the given chemical equation:

                   2NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO(g)+O_2(g)

Initial:              a

At eqllm:        a-2x          2x          x

Calculating for the value of 'x'

\Rightarrow x=0.29

Equilibrium partial pressure of NO = 2x = 2(0.29) = 0.58 atm

Equilibrium partial pressure of NO_2 = a - 2x = a - 2(0.29) = a - 0.58

The expression of K_p for above equation follows:

K_p=\frac{p_{O_2}\times (p_{NO})^2}{(p_{NO_2})^2}

We are given:

K_p=158

Putting values in above expression, we get:

158=\frac{0.29\times (0.58)^2}{(a-0.58)^2}\\\\a=0.555,0.604

Neglecting the value of a = 0.555 because it cannot be less than the equilibrium concentration.

So, a=0.604

Equilibrium partial pressure of NO_2 = (a - 0.58) = (0.604 - 0.58) = 0.024 atm

Hence, the pressure of NO and NO_2 in the mixture is 0.58 atm and 0.024 atm respectively.

If a gas at 740 mm Hg and 70c has its pressure lower to 720 mm Hg, what will it's temperature be if volume is held consistent
beks73 [17]
When the volume and quantity of the gas are held constant, we can use the Gay-Lussac's Gas Law expressed as
     P1/T1 = P2/T2
in which if the pressure of the gas decreases, we know that the temperature decreases.
We first convert the temperature to absolute temperature
     T1 = 70 + 273 = 343 K
Rearranging the Gay-Lussac's equation to solve for the final temperature 
     T2 = P2T1 / P1
           = (720 mmHg)(343 K) / 740 mmHg
           = 334 K = 61ºC
