Answer:

Ca(ClO₃)₂(s) → CaCl₂(s) + 3O₂(g)

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Ca(ClO₃)₂(s) → CaCl₂(s) + O₂(g)

Balance chemical equation:

Ca(ClO₃)₂(s) → CaCl₂(s) + 3O₂(g)

Step 1:

Ca(ClO₃)₂(s) → CaCl₂(s) + O₂(g)

Left hand side Right hand side

Ca = 1 Ca = 1

Cl = 2 Cl = 2

O = 6 O = 2

Step 2:

Ca(ClO₃)₂(s) → CaCl₂(s) + 3O₂(g)

Left hand side Right hand side

Ca = 1 Ca = 1

Cl = 2 Cl = 2

O = 6 O = 6

At 700 K, the reaction 2SO2(g) + O2(g) <====> 2SO3(g) has the equilibrium constant Kc = 4.3 x 106. At a certain instant, f

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The system is not in equilibrium and will evolve left to right to reach equilibrium.

Explanation:

The reaction quotient Qc is defined for a generic reaction:

aA + bB → cC + dD

$Q=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are not those of equilibrium, but other given concentrations

Chemical Equilibrium is the state in which the direct and indirect reaction have the same speed and is represented by a constant Kc, which for a generic reaction as shown above, is defined:

$Kc=\frac{[C]^{c} *[D]^{d} }{[A]^{a}*[B]^{b} }$

where the concentrations are those of equilibrium.

This constant is equal to the multiplication of the concentrations of the products raised to their stoichiometric coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentrations of the reactants also raised to their stoichiometric coefficients.

Comparing Qc with Kc allows to find out the status and evolution of the system:

If the reaction quotient is equal to the equilibrium constant, Qc = Kc, the system has reached chemical equilibrium.

If the reaction quotient is greater than the equilibrium constant, Qc> Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. In this case the direct reaction predominates and there will be more product present than what is obtained at equilibrium. Therefore, this product is used to promote the reverse reaction and reach equilibrium. The system will then evolve to the left to increase the reagent concentration.

If the reaction quotient is less than the equilibrium constant, Qc <Kc, the system is not in equilibrium. The concentration of the reagents is higher than it would be at equilibrium, so the direct reaction predominates. Thus, the system will evolve to the right to increase the concentration of products.

In this case:

$Q=\frac{[So_{3}] ^{2} }{[SO_{2} ]^{2}* [O_{2}] }$

$Q=\frac{10^{2} }{0.10^{2} *0.10}$

Q=100,000

100,000 < 4,300,000 (4.3*10⁶)

Q < Kc

A calorimeter measures the Choose... involved in reactions or other processes by measuring the Choose... of the materials Choose

yuradex [85]

Answer:

heat; temperature; surrounding; insulated.

Explanation:

A calorimeter can be defined as a scientific instrument (device) that is designed and developed for measurement of the heat involved in chemical reactions or other processes, especially by taking the measurement of the temperature of the materials surrounding the process.

Basically, a calorimeter is insulated using materials with a very high level of resistivity, so as to prevent heat transfer to the outside of the device (calorimeter).

Some of the components that make up a simple calorimeter are; thermometer, an interior styrofoam cup, an exterior styrofoam cup, cover, etc.

Additionally, a calorie refers to the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of a gram of water by one degree Celsius (°C)

Vanillin (used to flavor vanilla ice cream and other foods) is the substance whose aroma the human nose detects in the smallest

balu736 [363]

Answer:

Cost to supply enough vanillin is $3.2\$$

Explanation:

Threshold limit of vanillin in air is $2.0\times 10^{-11}g$ per litre means there should be $2.0\times 10^{-11}g$ of vanillin in 1L of air to detect aroma of vanillin.

$1ft^{3}=28.32L$

So, $5.0\times 10^{7}ft^{3}=(5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)L$

So amount of vanillin should be present to detect = $(2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)g$

As cost of 50 g vanillin is $112\$$ therefore cost of $(2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32)g$ vanillin = $(2.0\times 10^{-11}\times 5.0\times 10^{7}\times 28.32\times 112)\$ = 3.2\$$

Where on earth did people decide they wanted to go many years ago

adell [148]

Answer:

Many years ago, people living on the Earth, desired to go to the outer space.

Explanation:

When man initiate to go outer space:

Many times ago, people used to think about the world out of Earth, the space and the sky. These thoughts generated the idea of thinking and imagining the space and the moon.

The idea turned into a movie by Georges Méliès, which was inspired by a book written by Jules Verne. The movie gave the idea to Konstantin Tsiolkovsky, a Russian man to develop many ideas which were implemented by Russia and America to build airplanes and rockets that we see launching at present.

A small though became an idea which gave birth to a new invention through which people live their dreams of going in the outer space. Incredible!
