. Copper(I) oxide, Cu2O, is reduced to metallic copper by heating in a stream of hydrogen gas. What mass of water is produced wh

maksim [4K]

Answer: 0.07868 mol H₂O

Explanation:

1) Chemical equation:

Cu₂O +H₂ → 2Cu + H₂O

2) mole ratios:

1 mol Cu₂O : 1 mol H₂ : 2 mol Cu : 1 mol H₂O

3) Convert 10.00 g of Cu to grams, using the atomic mass:

Atomic mass of Cu: 63.546 g/mol

number of moles = mass in grams / atomic mass = 10.00g / 63.546 g/mol

number of moles = 0.1574 mol

4) Use proportions

2mol Cu 0.1574 mol Cu
--------------- = ---------------------
1 mol H₂O x

⇒ x = 0.1574 mol Cu × 1 mol H₂O / 2mol Cu = 0.07868 mol H₂O

That is the answer

What effect does adding a neutron have on the atoms identity

Sergeu [11.5K]

Neutrons don’t carry an electrical charge, meaning that adding or subtracting them from the nucleus will not change the electrical charge of the nucleus of an atom. But, adding/removing neutrons changes the mass of the nucleus. This is how isotopes are formed.

A gas at 400 k is placed in a 4.0 l moveable piston. The gas is cooled to 252 k. What is the new volume of the piston?

katrin [286]

Answer:

2.52L

Explanation:

Given parameters:

T₁ = 400K

V₁ = 4L

T₂ = 252K

unknown

V₂ = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we are going to apply charle's law. The law states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to temperature provided pressure is constant.

Mathematically,

$\frac{V_{1} }{T_{1} } = \frac{V_{2} }{T_{2} }$

Substitute and solve for V₂

$\frac{4}{400} = \frac{V_{2} }{252}$

V₂ = 2.52L

For the following systems at equilibrium C: CaCO3(s) ⇌ CaO(s)+CO2(g) ΔH=+178 kJ/mol D: PCl3(g)+Cl2(g) ⇌ PCl5(g) ΔH=−88 kJ/mol cl

Rama09 [41]

Explanation:

C: $CaCO_3(s)\rightleftharpoons CaO(s)+CO_2(g)$ ΔH=+178 kJ/mol

For an endothermic reaction, heat is getting absorbed during a chemical reaction and is written on the reactant side.

$A+\text{heat}\rightleftharpoons B$

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle. This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

Treat heat as a reactant and on increasing a reactant at equilibrium, shifts the reaction in the forward direction.

Increase temperature → increase in heat → forward direction

Decrease temperature → decease in heat → backward direction

System C - Increase temperature : Reaction will move forward

System C - Decrease temperature : Reaction will move backward

D: $PCl_3(g)+Cl_2(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_5(g)$ ΔH=−88 kJ/mol

The total enthalpy of the reaction comes out to be negative .

The temperature of the surrounding will increase.

For an exothermic reaction, heat is released during a chemical reaction and is written on the product side.

$A\rightleftharpoons B+\text{ heat}$

Any change in the equilibrium is studied on the basis of Le-Chatelier's principle. This principle states that if there is any change in the variables of the reaction, the equilibrium will shift in the direction to minimize the effect.

Treat heat as a product and on increasing a product at equilibrium, shifts the reaction in the backward direction.

Increase temperature → increase in heat → backward direction

Decrease temperature → decease in heat → forward direction

System D - Increase temperature : Reaction will move backward

System D - Decrease temperature : Reaction will move forward
