Answer:

48 grams of sulfur trioxide.

Explanation:

The equation of reaction involves the decomposition of 2 moles of sulfur trioxide (SO3) to produce 2 moles of atomic sulfur (S) and 3 moles of molecular oxygen (O2).

From the equation of reaction above,

3 moles of molecular oxygen (96 g) was produced from 2 moles of sulfur trioxide (160 g)

Mass of sulfur trioxide needed to produce 28.8 g of oxygen = 28.8×160/96 = 48 grams

How does the mass of an electron compare to the mass of a proton and a
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

C. The mass of an electron is much less than the mass of a proton or

a neutron.

Explanation:

When we compare the mass of an electron to that of proton or neutron, the mass of an electron is much less than the mass of a proton or a neutron.

Electrons are negatively charged particles in an atom

Protons are positively charged particles

Neutrons do not carry any charges.

  • The relative mass of an electron compared to that of a proton is \frac{1}{1840}
  • This is a very small value
  • Electrons generally have mass of 9.11 x 10⁻³¹kg
  • Protons weigh 1.67 x 10⁻²⁷kg
  • Neutrons weigh  1.68 x 10⁻²⁷kg

We can see that electrons have very small mass and this is why when calculating the mass of an atom, we use the sum of the number of protons and neutrons.

Which of the following is NOT soluble in water?
GrogVix [38]
C6H6 is the most insoluble in water as it is non polar in nature. HCL is highly soluble in water as it is an electrolyte. Kbr is also highly soluble in water. NaCl dissolves in water very quickly. CH3CH3OH is also totally soluble in water because of the Hydrogen bonding formation. It is a well known fact that the hydrocarbons do not easily mix with water. C6H6 being a strong hydrocarbon does not mix with water. So among NaCl, KBr, CH3CH3OH, HCl and C6H6, the hydrocarbon is the least soluble in water.

Why do living things need carbon
soldier1979 [14.2K]
Animals use oxygen to convert this food into energy they can use, and to maintain a steady supply of carbon atoms that are necessary for building any animal cells. Respiration also returns carbon dioxide back to the atmosphere as a waste product, where plants can reabsorb it in the process of photosynthesis. hope I helped.
