A reaction in which Oxygen (O₂) is produced from Mercury Oxide (HgO) would be a decomposition reaction.
           2HgO    →    2Hg    +    O₂

If 250g of O₂ is needed to be produced,
then the moles of oxygen needed to be produced = 250g  ÷  32 g/mol
                                                                                     = 7.8125 mol

Now, the mole ratio of Oxygen to Mercury Oxide is  1  :  2
∴ if the moles of oxygen =  7.8125 mol
then the moles of mercury oxide = 7.8125 mol × 2
                                                        = 15.625 mol


Thus the number moles of HgO needed to produce 250.0 g of O₂ is 15.625 mol

What is the redox half equation for 3Ag2S + 2Al --> 6Ag + Al2, and identity which material is oxidized and which is reduced?
marta [7]

Answer:

Al is oxidized while Ag is reduced.

Explanation:

The complete molecular equation is;

3Ag2S + 2Al --> 6Ag + Al2S3

Oxidation half equation;

2Al ------> 2Al^3+ + 6e

Reduction half equation;

6Ag^+ + 6e -------> 6Ag

Overall redox reaction equation;

2Al + 6Ag^+ ----->2Al^3+ + 6Ag

Hence; Al is oxidized while Ag is reduced.

What is the molarity of a NaCl stock used to make 750 ml of a dilute 10 mM solution if 5 ml of the concentrated solution was use
ch4aika [34]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

          M_{1} = 10 mM = 10 \times 10^{-3} M

          V_{1} = 750 ml,           V_{2} = 5 ml

          M_{2} = ?

Therefore, calculate the molarity of given NaCl stock as follows.

                  M_{1} \times V_{1} = M_{2} \times V_{2}

                  10 \times 10^{-3} \times 750 ml = M_{2} \times 5 ml

                   M_{2} = 1.5 M

Thus, we can conclude that molarity of given NaCl stock is 1.5 M.

You conduct an experiment in which you measure the temperature (T) and volume (V) of a mysterious sphere of gas at several diffe
____ [38]

Volume of the gas is 525 L.

<u>Explanation:</u>

It is given that the volume of the gas divided by the temperature is 1.75.

V/T = 1.75

As per the Charles law, volume is proportional to the temperature.

V ∝ T

V/T = constant

Now we have to find V, and T is given as 300 K.

So plugin the values as,

V/300 = 1.75

Rearranging the equation to get V as,

V = 1.75×300

  = 525 L

what does the statment mean. The properties of salts are different from the properties of the elements that go into making them
Olegator [25]
Think of it this way,
Mix Iron and sulphur in a bowl. How do you separate them? Use a magnet right. Yes.

Now, mix the iron and sulphur together but know, heat them up. Let them cool for a while. After that, use a magnet to separate. You cant. This is because the compound (FeS) now has a different property from its original components.

Apply this theory onto salts.
