2HgO----->  2Hg  +  O2

find  the  moles  of  HgO,

moles=mass/molar  mass

1.19g/216.59(molar  mass  of  HgO) =   5.49  x10^-3moles

by  use   of  mole  ratio  between  HgO  and Hg  which  is  2:2    or  1:1  the moles   of  Hg  is  also   5.49  x10^-3  moles

mass  of  Hg  is  therefore  =  (5.49  x10^-3)  x  200.59  =  1.101  grams

Scientists are studying animals in a large lake area. In this lake area, both owls and raccoons eat ducks, and ducks eat frogs.
Stolb23 [73]

Answer:

Population of duck and frog will change with the change

Explanation:

The complete question is

Scientists are studying animals in a large lake area. In this lake area, both owls and raccoons eat ducks, and ducks eat frogs. The data shows that recently the size of the raccoon population decreased. How will the decrease in the raccoon population affect the other populations? Be sure to explain whether the owl population, the duck population, and the frog population will change, and why.

  1. Owl population will change
  2. Duck population will change
  3. Frog population will change

Solution

Raccoon eat duck and duck eat frog. Now if the population of Raccoon decreases then the number of predators of duck will decrease thereby increasing the population of duck.

The higher will be the number of ducks, the more frogs they will consume thereby decreasing the population of frogs

Hence both the population of duck and frog will change with the change

What is one benfit of using ph instead of molar concentrations?
puteri [66]

One benefit of using ph instead of molar concentrations is that since molarity is a rate of “ moles per liter" ,  Molarity (M) is used to measure the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution, which is used with pH applications. ... The H+ is the molarity number, which shows the concentration of hydrogen ions in the solution.

A mixture of 10 cm3 of methane and 10 cm3 of ethane was sparked with an excess of oxygen. After cooling to room temperature, thr
Tpy6a [65]
In the combustion process using excess oxygen, each mole of methane results to 1 mole of co2 while ethane produces 2 moles of Co2. Under same conditions, these can be translated to volume. Hence the total volume absorbed is 10 cm3 + 20 cm3 = 30 cm3.

A gaseous mixture of O2 and N2 contains 37.8% nitrogen by mass. What is the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the tot
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

Explanation:

mass of nitrogen = 37.8 g

mass of oxygen = (100-37.8) g = 62.2 g

Using the equation given by Raoult's law, we get:

p_A=\chi_A\times P_T

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of O_2 = ?

\chi_{O_2} = mole fraction of O_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }O_2}{\text{Total moles}}

P_{T} = total pressure of mixture  = 525 mmHg

{\text{Moles of }O_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{62.2g}{32g/mol}=1.94moles

{\text{Moles of }N_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{37.8g}{28g/mol}=1.35moles

Total moles = 1.94 + 1.35 = 3.29 moles

\chi_{O_2}=\frac{1.94}{3.29}=0.59

p_{O_2}=\chi_{O_2}\times P_T=0.59\times 525=310mmHg

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg
