A small helium tank measures about two feet high. Yet it can fill over 50 balloons! How can such a small tank contain enough hel

ium to fill so many balloons?

It will only take a small amount of helium when inflating balloons. For example, an 11" balloon only needs 0.015 m3 of helium. So it make sense, why a two feet helium tank can inflate at about 50 balloons. Also, the size tank (2 ft. high) does not define the capacity of helium it contains.

50.0 ml of 0.010m naoh was titrated with 0.50m hcl using a dropper pipet. if the average drop from the pipet has a volume of 0.0
creativ13 [48]

25 drops of acid is required to neutralize the 50.0 ml of 0.010m of NaOH in the experiment.

The equation of the reaction is;

NaOH(aq) + HCl(aq) ---------> NaCl(aq) + H2O(l)

We can use the titration formula;

CAVA/CBVB = NA/NB

CA= concentration of acid

VA = volume of acid

CB = concentration of base

VB = volume of base

NA = number of moles of acid

NB = number of moles of base

CB = 0.010 M

VB = 50.0 ml

CA = 0.50 M

VA = ?

NA = 1

NB = 1

Substituting values;

CAVANB = CBVBNA

VA =  0.010 ×  50.0 × 1/ 0.50 × 1

VA = 1 ml

Since the total volume of acid used is 1 ml and each drop contains 0.040 ml

The number of drops required is 1ml/0.040 ml = 25 drops

A student constructs a galvanic cell that has a strip of iron metal immersed in a solution of 0.1M Fe(NO3)2 as one half-cell and
MrMuchimi

Answer:

Fe

Explanation:

The cell potential is:

ΔE°cell = E°red(red) - E°red(oxid)

Where, E°red(red) is the reduction potential of the substance that is reducing, and E°red(oxid) is the reduction potential of the substance that is oxidizing. For the reaction be spontaneous and happen, ΔE°cell > 0.

The reduction takes place in the cathode, which is the negative pole, and the oxidation in the anode, which is the positive pole. So, the electrons flow from the positive pole to the negative pole (anode to cathode).

Then, if the voltmeter measured a negative potential, it means that is was attached incorrectly. So, the anode is Fe.

Solid calcium carbonate breaks down into carbon dioxide gas, oxygen gas, and solid calcium, write an equation for described reac
Savatey [412]

Answer:

CaCO₃ ------> CaO + CO₂

<em>Note: The breakdown products of solid calcium carbonate is not carbon dioxide gas, oxygen gas, and solid calcium. Rather, it is calcium oxide and carbon dioxide as shown in the reaction equation above.</em>

Explanation:

Calcium carbonate is a mineral which occurs in nature in rocks as calcite and limestone. It is also the main component of eggshells, snail shells, seashells and pearls. It has the molecular formula CaCO₃.

Calcium carbonate or limestone decomposes into calcium oxide and carbon dioxide when heated and the reaction is used to make quicklime and carbon dioxide gas. The equation of the reaction is given below:

CaCO₃ ------> CaO + CO₂

Calcium oxide, one of the products of The decomposition reaction is known as lime and is an important mineral used for many purposes such as reducing the acidity of soils, in the production of limelight, as well as serving as the main ingredient in cement.

The main use of calcium carbonate is in the construction industry as an ingredient of cement. Calcium carbonate is also an important mineral required by sea organisms for making their shells.
