Coal is not a mineral. It's not a mineral because minerals are inorganic. Coal is organic because it comes from decayed living matter.

A 1.00 liter container holds a mixture of 0.52 mg of He and 2.05 mg of Ne at 25oC. Determine the partial pressures of He and Ne
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

pHe = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm

pNe = 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm

P = 5.7 × 10⁻³ atm

Explanation:

Given data

Volume = 1.00 L

Temperature = 25°C + 273 = 298 K

mHe = 0.52 mg = 0.52 × 10⁻³ g

mNe = 2.05 mg = 2.05 × 10⁻³ g

The molar mass of He is 4.00 g/mol. The moles of He are:

0.52 × 10⁻³ g × (1 mol / 4.00 g) = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol

We can find the partial pressure of He using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P × 1.00 L = 1.3 × 10⁻⁴ mol × (0.082 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

P = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm

The molar mass of Ne is 20.18 g/mol. The moles of Ne are:

2.05 × 10⁻³ g × (1 mol / 20.18 g) = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ mol

We can find the partial pressure of Ne using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

P × 1.00 L = 1.02 × 10⁻⁴ mol × (0.082 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K

P = 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm

The total pressure is the sum of the partial pressures.

P = 3.2 × 10⁻³ atm + 2.5 × 10⁻³ atm = 5.7 × 10⁻³ atm

What does the number above the symbol represent?
forsale [732]

Answer:

D. The ionic number.

Explanation:

Whenever an element losses or gains an electron; it becomes charged, thus turns to an ion. The ion can either be positively charged when it losses an electron or negarively charged when it gains an electron. The number shows the required number of electrons gained (negative) or lost (positive).

Acetone is a common solvent that has a density of 0.7899 g/mL. What volume of acetone, in milliliters, has a mass of 44.2 g
balu736 [363]

The volume of acetone, in milliliters, has a mass of 44.2 g is 55.96mL.

<h3>HOW TO CALCULATE VOLUME?</h3>

The volume of a substance can be calculated by dividing the mass by its density. That is;

Volume (mL) = mass (g) ÷ density (g/mL)

According to this question, acetone is a solvent with density of 0.7899g/mL and mass of 44.2g. The volume is calculated as follows:

Volume = 44.2g ÷ 0.7899g/mL

Volume = 55.96mL

Therefore, the volume of acetone, in milliliters, has a mass of 44.2g is 55.96mL.

What is the oxidation state of the underlined atom in the reaction:
kvasek [131]

Answer:

+5

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

Mn(NO₃)₂ + 2 HCl --> MnCl₂ + 2 HNO₃

We can determine the oxidation number of N in (NO₃)₂²⁻ taking into account that the sum of the oxidation numbers of the elements present in a chemical species is equal to this overall charge. For this compound we know:

  • The oxidation number of O is -2.
  • The overall charge is 2-.
  • We have 2 atoms of N and 2× 3 = 6 atoms of O.

2 N + 6 O = 2-

2 N + 6 (-2) = 2-

2 N = +10

N = +5
