Answer:

2 Hertz

Explanation:

The frequency would be 2 Hertz.

The frequency of a wave is defined as the rate at which the particles of a medium vibrates when the wave is passed through it while the period of a wave is the time it takes the particles to make a complete cycle of vibration.

The frequency of a wave is inversely related to its period and is defined by the following equation:

f = 1/t, where f is the frequency (in hertz) and t is the period (in seconds).

Hence, if the period of a ripple is 1/2 or 0.5 seconds, the frequency becomes;

f = 1/0.5 = 2 Hertz

One: looks to be correct for both answers. Certainly the first one is. The second depends on your other choices. But military use is one.

Two: is correct. Pd has (in this case) an atomic mass of 114 and its number is 46

Three: Even with my slop numbers, 4.98 is the answer (although I get 4.99 but again, my numbers are pretty sloppy).

Four: Slop numbers say 78.3, but 78 is the right answer.

Five: Slop numbers agree with Al2S3. I think that's D

They are all correct. Very Fine Work.

Identify the following redox reactions by type. Check all that apply. (a) Fe + H2SO4 → FeSO4 + H2 combination decomposition disp

EastWind [94]

Answer :

(a) displacement reaction

(b) combination reaction

(c) disproportionation reaction

(d) displacement reaction

Explanation :

(a) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe+H_2SO_4\rightarrow FeSO_4+H_2$

This reaction is a single replacement reaction or displacement in which the the more reactive element (Fe) replace the less reactive element (H).

(b) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$S+3F_2\rightarrow SF_6$

This reaction is a combination reaction in which the two reactants molecule combine to form a large molecule or single product.

(c) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2CuCl_2\rightarrow Cu+CuCl_2$

This reaction is a disproportionation reaction in which the chemical species gets oxidized and reduced simultaneously. It is also considered as a redox reaction.

(d) The given balanced chemical reaction is,

$2Ag+PtCl_2\rightarrow 2AgCl+Pt$

This reaction is a single replacement reaction or displacement in which the the more reactive element (Ag) replace the less reactive element (Pt).

When 3243. grams of iron (III) chloride are reacted with 511.8 grams of hydrosulfuric acid, which is the limiting reactant?

AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

Hydrosulfuric acid will act as limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron(III) chloride = 3243.0 g

Mass of hydrosulfuric acid = 511.8 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2FeCl₃ + 3H₂S → Fe₂S₃ + 6HCl

Number of moles of iron(III) chloride:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3243.0 g/ 162.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 20 mol

Number of moles of hydrosulfuric acid:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 511.8 g/ 34.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 15 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with products

FeCl₃ : Fe₂S₃

2 : 1

20 : 1/2 ×20 = 10

FeCl₃ : HCl

2 : 6

20 : 6/2 ×20 = 60

H₂S : Fe₂S₃

3 : 1

15 : 1/3 ×15 = 5

H₂S : HCl

3 : 6

15 : 6/3 ×15 = 30

Hydrosulfuric acid producing less number of moles of product thus, it will act as limiting reactant.
