Answer: A) 3.21 g

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side.

Fe+S\rightarrow FeS

We are given:

Mass of iron = 5.58 g

Mass of iron sulphide = 8.79 g

Mass of sulphur = x g

Total mass on reactant side = 5.58 + x

Total mass on product side = 8.79 g

Applying law of conservation of mass, we get:

5.58+x=8.79\\\\x=3.21g

Hence, the mass of reacting sulfur is 3.21 g.

Fluoride is moderately basic, by far the most basic of the halides. It is a terrible leaving group. Fluoride is many orders of m
TEA [102]

Answer:   Bromide is many orders of magnitude better than fluoride in leaving group ability

Explanation:

As Size of an atom  Increases,  the Basicity Decreases this is because  if we move downwards  from the top of the periodic table to the bottom of the periodic table, the size of an atom increases. As size increases, basicity will decrease, meaning the element  will be less likely to act as a base implying that the element will be less likely to share its electrons.

in the same vein. With an increase in size, basicity decreases, making the ability of the leaving group to leave increase to increase . This can be seen in the halogens going down the group  from

F--- worst

Cl----fair

Br ----good

 I-----excellent

with fluorine having the worst ability to leave than Bromine which is better in terms of the leaving group ability.

The reaction of Pb+4 and O-2 produces the compound of
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

Pb₂O₄

                               

Explanation:

The given species are:

        Pb⁴⁺               O²⁻  

Now, to solve this problem, we use the combining powers which corresponds to the number of electrons usually lost or gained or shared by atoms during the course of a chemical combination.

                                          Pb⁴⁺               O²⁻  

Combining power               4                    2

Exchange of valencies        2                    4

Now the molecular formula is  Pb₂O₄

SKILL: MAKING VALID GENERALIZATIONS Use the paragraph below to answer the following questions. The Chinese people also call the
miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

Hope this helps

Explanation:

A generalization I can make about the Huang River is that the Huang River is the most important river in China. Also called the Yellow River, it is where historians believe ancient Chinese people settle in to develop its civilization on the banks of the river for the many benefits it had for life and agriculture. However, early Chinese people had to learn how to control the floods of the river in order to survive ad prosper.

12.<br> An object with a mass of 3 kg has a momentum of 75 kg•m/s. What is the velocity?
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:

the velocity is 25 m/s

Explanation:

The computation of the velocity is shown below:

As we know that

Magnitude of Momentum = (mass) × (speed)

75 kg. m/s = 3 kg × speed

So, the speed is

= 75 ÷ 3

= 25 m/s

hence, the velocity is 25 m/s

Charles's law is an experimental gas law that shows the relationship between the temperature of a gas and its corresponding volu
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is (b)

Explanation:

Charles law describes the behavior of gases when heated. Charles law states that the volume of a given mass of gas would increase as its Kelvin temperature increases provided the pressure is held constant. That is the volume of a given mass of gas is directly proportional to its Kelvin temperature at constant pressure
