Answer: The correct answer is decreasing temperature.

Explanation:

The relation between pressure, temperature, volume and number of moles of gas is given by the equal known as ideal gas equation:

$PV=nRT$

or,

$P=\frac{nRT}{V}$

where,

P = Pressure of the gas

V = Volume of the gas

n = Number of moles of gas

R = Gas constant

T = Temperature of gas

From the above relation, it is visible that pressure is directly related to number of moles and temperature of the gas. So, if pressure decreases, the number of moles and temperature of the gas also decreases.

Also, pressure is inversely related to volume of the gas. So, if pressure gets decreased, the volume of the gas must increase.

And, pressure is directly related to number of collisions of the particles. Thus, if the pressure decreases, this means that number of collisions between the particles must also decrease.

Hence, the correct answer is decreasing temperature.

Answer:

Mass = 14.3 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Mg(OH)₂ = 16.0 g

Mass of HCl = 11.0 g

Mass of MgCl₂ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Mg(OH)₂ + 2HCl → MgCl₂ + 2H₂O

Number of moles of Mg(OH)₂ :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 16.0 g/ 58.3 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.274 mol

Number of moles of HCl :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 11.0 g/ 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.301 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Mg(OH)₂ and HCl with MgCl₂.

Mg(OH)₂ : MgCl₂

1 : 1

0.274 : 0.274

HCl : MgCl₂

2 : 1

0.301 : 1/2×0.301 = 0.150

The number of moles of MgCl₂ produced by HCl are less so it will limiting reactant.

Mass of MgCl₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.150 × 95 g/mol

Mass = 14.3 g

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The net ionic equation is written below.

Explanation:

Net ionic equation of any reaction does not include any spectator ions.

Spectator ions are defined as the ions which does not get involved in a chemical equation. They are found on both the sides of the chemical reaction when it is present in ionic form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of sodium carbonate and nickel (II) chloride is given as:

$Na_2CO_3(aq.)+NiCl_2(aq.)\rightarrow 2NaCl(aq.)+NiCO_3(s)$

Ionic form of the above equation follows:

$2Na^{+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)+Ni^{2+}(aq.)+2Cl^{-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)+2Na^+(aq.)+2Cl^-(aq.)$

As, sodium and chloride ions are present on both the sides of the reaction. Thus, it will not be present in the net ionic equation and are spectator ions.

The net ionic equation for the above reaction follows:

$Ni^{2+}(aq.)+CO_3^{2-}(aq.)\rightarrow NiCO_3(s)$

Hence, the net ionic equation is written above.

What is 1 major discovery in cosmology that relies on improvement in existing apparatus?

never [62]

The most dramatic astronomical development of the century thus far is the detection of gravitational waves from merging black holes at a distance of 400 Mpc, during the first science run of the advanced Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory.

The telescope was also very important. Galileo Galilei was the first person to use a telescope to look at celestial bodies (though he did not invent the telescope) and discovered the four brightest moons of Jupiter, proving that there are things in the Solar System that don't revolve around the Sun.

Physical cosmology is the branch of physics and astrophysics that deals with the study of the physical origins and evolution of the Universe. It also includes the study of the nature of the Universe on a large scale. In its earliest form, it was what is now known as "celestial mechanics", the study of the heavens.

Hope this helps you :)
