Be sure to answer all parts. Nitric oxide, NO·, is a radical thought to cause ozone destruction by a mechanism similar to that o

f hydrofluorocarbons. One source of NO· in the stratosphere is supersonic aircraft whose jet engines convert small amounts of N2 and O2 to NO.
Write the propagation steps for the reaction of O3 with NO·.

Answer:

See image attached and explanation

Explanation:

The stratospheric ozone layer is very important in absorbing high-energy ultraviolet radiation that is harmful to living systems on earth. The concentration of ozone in the stratosphere is determined by both thermal and photochemical pathways for its decomposition. Nitric oxide, NO, is a trace constituent in the stratosphere that reacts with ozone to form nitrogen dioxide, NO2, and the diatomic oxygen molecule. The nitrogen-oxygen bond in NO2 is relatively weak. When an NO2 molecule encounters an oxygen atom, it transfers an oxygen, forming O2 and NO. The chemical reactions involved are formations of NO2 following by reaction of NO2 with atomic oxygen for form NO and O2. The sum of both reactions show that the overall reaction is simply the reaction of ozone with atomic oxygen to form two molecules of molecular oxygen. Hence, NO only serves as a catalyst, it does not undergo a permanent change itself.

Chamber 1 and Chamber 2 have equal volumes of 1.0L and are assumed to be rigid containers. The chambers are connected by a valve
vitfil [10]
1) At tne same temperature and with the same volume, initially the chamber 1 has the dobule of moles of gas  than the chamber 2, so the pressure in the chamber 1 ( call it p1) is the double of the pressure of chamber 2 (p2)

=> p1 = 2 p2

Which is easy to demonstrate using ideal gas equation:

p1 = nRT/V = 2.0 mol * RT / 1 liter

p2 = nRT/V = 1.0 mol * RT / 1 liter

=> p1 / p2 = 2.0 / 1.0 = 2 => p1 = 2 * p2

2) Assuming that when the valve is opened there is not change in temperature, there will be 1.00 + 2.00 moles of gas in a volumen of 2 liters.

So, the pressure in both chambers (which form one same vessel) is:

p = nRT/V = 3.0 mol * RT / 2liter

which compared to the initial pressure in chamber 1, p1, is:

p / p1 = (3/2) / 2 = 3/4 => p = (3/4)p1

So, the answer is that the pressure in the chamber 1 decreases to 3/4 its original pressure.

You can also see how the pressure in chamber 2 changes:

p / p2 = (3/2) / 1 = 3/2, which means that the pressure in the chamber 2 decreases to 3/2 of its original pressure.

A compound is 2.00% H by mass, 32.7% S by mass, and 65.3% O by mass. What is its empirical
Katarina [22]

Answer:

empirical formula: H_2SO_4

2 g H

32.7 g S

65.3 g O

Explanation:

Like the problem said, the first thing we can do is calculate the mass of each of the 3 elements in a 100-gram sample:

- 2.00% * 100g = 2 g H

- 32.7% * 100g = 32.7 g S

- 65.3% * 100g = 65.3 g O

Now we need to find the empirical formula from these. To do so, convert all of those masses into moles by using the molar mass for each element:

- the molar mass of H is 1.01 g/mol

- the molar mass of S is 32.06 g/mol

- the molar mass of O is 16 g/mol

2 g H ÷ 1.01 g/mol = 1.98 mol H

32.7 g S ÷ 32.06 g/mol = 1.02 mol S

65.3 g O ÷ 16 g/mol = 4.08 mol O

Our ratio of H : S : O is now:

1.98 mol : 1.02 mol : 4.08 mol

Divide them all by the smallest number, which is 1.02:

1.98/1.02  :  1.02/1.02  :  4.08/1.02

1.94 : 1 : 4

1.94 ≈ 2

So:

2 : 1 : 4

Thus, the empirical formula is: H_2SO_4.

Which pair of elements form an ionic bond?
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

As an example I can say sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl).

Explanation:

An ionic bond occurs when a metal element reacts with a nonmetal element. Therefore in the answer given above the Na is metal and Cl is nonmetal and they form a molecule through ionic bonding.

Nat2105 [25]

Answer: Wind current

Explanation:

The wind current is the main driving force along with the water currents when one reaches to the seashore. The wind currents above surface of water generates due to the evaporation of water.

The strong wind currents can pull any animal or human walking or running near the sea shore. These currents bring the animal or human towards the sea.
