Answer:

147,558,601 sqkm

Explanation:

The earth is spherical in shape;

area of sphere = 4πr²

if 70.8% is covered by water then 100-70.8 will be land,

= 29.2%

area occupied by land = (29.2/100) * 4πr²

                                = 0.292*4*3.142*(6371)²

                        =147,558,601 sqkm

Zinc reacts with iron (iii) chloride yielding zinc chloride plus iron
olasank [31]

Answer:

I don't see a specific question, so I'll make a few comments and hope that answers the reason for the post.

Explanation:

Zinc(Zn) does react with iron chloride, since zinc is a more reactive metal than the iron.

When Zn is introduced to an iron (III) chloride solution, the Zn disoplaces the Fe atom in a displacement reaction.

The chemical equation of the reaction:

Zn + Fe(III)Cl3 → ZnCl3 + Fe

Energy is often realeased in this type of reaction, since the resulting chemical products have a lower energy that the reactants.

There are several metals more reactive than iron.  One of the more interesting examples of a highly exothermic reaction with iron chloride (rust) is the reaction of aluminum with iron chloride.  `This is highly exothermic and is labelled a thermite reaction.  It provides a spectacular flame that is not enough to weld railroad tracks together.

If the ionization constant of water, kw, at 40°c is 2.92 × 10-14, then what is the hydronium ion concentration and ph for an aci
charle [14.2K]

Answer is: the hydronium ion concentratio is 1.71×10⁻⁷ mol/dm³ and pH<6.76.

The Kw (the ionization constant of water) at 40°C is 2.94×10⁻¹⁴ mol²/dm⁶ or 2.94×10⁻¹⁴ M².

Kw = [H₃O⁺] · [OH⁻].

[H₃O⁺] = [OH⁻] = x.

Kw = x².

x = √Kw.

x = √2.94×10⁻¹⁴ M².

x = [H₃O⁺] = 1.71×10⁻⁷ M; concentration of hydronium ion.

pH = -log[H₃O⁺].

pH = -log(1.71×10⁻⁷ M).

pH = 6.76.

pH (potential of hydrogen) is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity an aqueous solution.
