A 3.82L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 204.9K to 304.8 K.

likoan [24]

Given :

A 3.82L balloon filled with gas is warmed from 204.9K to 304.8 K.

To Find :

The volume of the gas after it is heated.

Solution :

Since, their is no information about pressure in the question statement let us assume that pressure is constant.

Now, we know by ideal gas equation at constant pressure :

$\dfrac{V_1}{V_2} = \dfrac{T_1}{T_2}\\\\\dfrac{3.82}{V_2}= \dfrac{204.9}{304.8}\\\\V_2 = \dfrac{304.8}{204.9} \times 3.82\\\\V_2 = 5.68 \ L$

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which compound contains both ionic and covalent

musickatia [10]

Answer:

(3) NaNO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Sodium nitrate has ionic bonds, because it consists of Na⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions.

However, the nitrate ions have covalent bonds between the O atoms and the central N atoms.

(1) and (2) are wrong. Both N₂O₅ and HCl consist of nonmetals, so they are covalent compounds.

(4) is wrong. NaCl has only ionic bonds between the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions

68.3 grams of sodium hydroxide reacts with 78.3 grams of magnesium nitrate. ____ grams of magnesium hydroxide will form from thi

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

30.8 grams of magnesium hydroxide will form from this reaction, and magnesium nitrate is the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

2NaOH + Mg(NO₃)₂ → 2NaNO₃ + Mg(OH)₂

Now we convert the given masses of reactants to moles, using their respective molar masses:

68.3 g NaOH ÷ 40 g/mol = 1.71 mol NaOH

78.3 g Mg(NO₃)₂ ÷ 148.3 g/mol = 0.528 mol Mg(NO₃)₂

0.528 moles of Mg(NO₃)₂ would react completely with (0.528 * 2) 1.056 moles of NaOH. There are more than enough NaOH moles, so NaOH is the reagent in excess and Mg(NO₃)₂ is the limiting reagent.

Now we calculate how many Mg(OH)₂ are produced, using the moles of the limiting reagent:

0.528 mol Mg(NO₃)₂ * $\frac{1molMg(OH)_2}{1molMg(NO_3)_2}$ = 0.528 mol Mg(OH)₂

Finally we convert Mg(OH)₂ moles to grams:

0.528 mol Mg(OH)₂ * 58.32 g/mol = 30.8 g

Which substance is a base? HCOOH RbOH H2CO3 NaNO3

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

RbOH

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember what is the definition of a base. A base is a compound that has the ability to produce hydroxyl ions $OH^-$ , so:
