The question is incomplete, complete question is:

When copper(I) sulfide is partially roasted in air (reaction with oxygen), copper(I) sulfite is formed first. subsequently, upon heating, the copper sulfite thermally decomposes to copper(I) oxide and sulfur dioxide. Write balanced chemical equations for these two reactions.

Answer:

The balanced chemical equations for these two reactions:

2Cu_2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Cu_2SO_3(s)

Cu_2SO_3(s)\overset{heat}\rightarrow Cu_2O(s)+SO_2(g)

Explanation:

On  partial roasting of copper sulfide in an air. The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

2Cu_2S(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Cu_2SO_3(s)

On further heating of copper(I) sulfite it get decomposes into copper oxide and sulfur dioxide. The balanced chemical reaction is given as:

Cu_2SO_3(s)\overset{heat}\rightarrow Cu_2O(s)+SO_2(g)

g A high altitude balloon is filled with 1.41 x 104 L of hydrogen gas (H2) at a temperature of 21oC and a pressure of 745 torr.
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

1.27 × 10⁵ L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

  • Initial pressure (P₁): 745 Torr
  • Initial volume (V₁): 1.41 × 10⁴ L
  • Inital temperature (T₁): 21 °C
  • Final pressure (P₂): 63.1 Torr
  • Final volume (V₂): ?
  • Final temperature (T₂): -48 °C

Step 2: Convert the temperatures to the Kelvin scale

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15

K = 21 °C + 273.15 = 294 K

K = -48 °C + 273.15 = 225 K

Step 3: Calculate the final volume of the balloon

We will use the combined gas law.

P₁ × V₁ / T₁ = P₂ × V₂ / T₂

V₂ = P₁ × V₁ × T₂/ T₁ × P₂

V₂ = 745 Torr × 1.41 × 10⁴ L × 225 K/ 294 K × 63.1 Torr

V₂ = 1.27 × 10⁵ L

Carbon is important to the structure of macromolecules because it has a valence of 4. what does this mean?
gogolik [260]
The valence part is referring to the outer most ring of electrons.  Carbon only has four on the 'valence' or outer most ring helping it to form bonds with other things.  I hope this helps!! Good Luck!!! :)

What is the limiting reactant for the following balanced equation when 9 moles of AlF3 are mixed with 12 miles of O2?
tamaranim1 [39]
<h2>Answer:AlF_{3} </h2>

Explanation:

The chemical equation of the reaction that occurs when AlF_{3} reacts with O_{2} is

4AlF_{3}+3O_{2}→2Al_{2}O_{3}+6F_{2}

4 moles of AlF_{3} requires 3 moles of O_{2}.

1 mole of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4} moles of O_{2}.

Given that we have 9 moles of AlF_{3}.

9 moles of AlF_{3} requires \frac{3}{4}\times 9=6.75 moles of O_{2}.

But we have 12 moles of O_{2}.

So,AlF_{3}  will be consumed first.

So,AlF_{3}  is the limiting reagent.

ANYONE THATS GOOD WITH CHEMISTRY PLEASE HELP!
sergejj [24]

CH2O. You can reduce 8, 16, and 8 to 1, 2, and 1. You just simplify the numbers. When there is no number after an element, it means that there is one of them.
