Answer:

10 molecules of water of hydration surround each molecule of sodium carbonate. That's why it is known as sodium carbonate decahydrate.

Explanation:

When the soluble compound sodium carbonate dissolves in water, the partial negatively charged side of the polar water molecules surround the positively charged sodium ions, while the partial positively charged side of the polar water molecules surround the negatively charged carbonate ions.

yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

a. 2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)

b. 0.957 g

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)

Step 2: Convert 130.0 °C to Kelvin

We will use the following expression.

K = °C + 273.15

K = 130.0°C + 273.15

K = 403.2 K

Step 3: Calculate the moles of O₂

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V/R × T

n = 1 atm × 0.0730 L/0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 403.2 K

n = 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol

Step 4: Calculate the moles of HgO that produced 2.21 × 10⁻³ moles of O₂

The molar ratio of HgO to O₂ is 2:1. The moles of HgO required are 2/1 × 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol = 4.42 × 10⁻³ mol.

Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 4.42 × 10⁻³ moles of HgO

The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol.

4.42 × 10⁻³ mol × 216.59 g/mol = 0.957 g

How do cells use lipids and carbohydrates?

Nata [24]

Answer:

Animals tend to use carbohydrates primarily for short-term energy storage, while lipids are used more for long-term energy storage. Carbohydrates are stored as glycogen in animals while lipids are stored as fats (in plants carbohydrates are stored as cellulose and lipids as oils)

A gas used to extinguish fires is composed of 75 % CO2 and 25 % N2. It is stored in a 5 m3 tank at 300 kPa and 25 °C. What is th

tatyana61 [14]

Answer : The partial pressure of the $CO_2$ in the tank in psia is, 32.6 psia.

Explanation :

As we are given 75 % $CO_2$ and 25 % $N_2$ in terms of volume.

First we have to calculate the moles of $CO_2$ and $N_2$ .

$\text{Moles of }CO_2=\frac{\text{Volume of }CO_2}{\text{Volume at STP}}=\frac{75}{22.4}=3.35mole$

$\text{Moles of }N_2=\frac{\text{Volume of }N_2}{\text{Volume at STP}}=\frac{25}{22.4}=1.12mole$

Now we have to calculate the mole fraction of $CO_2$ .

$\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }CO_2}{\text{Moles of }CO_2+\text{Moles of }N_2}$

$\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2=\frac{3.35}{3.35+1.12}=0.75$

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of the $CO_2$ gas.

$\text{Partial pressure of }CO_2=\text{Mole fraction of }CO_2\times \text{Total pressure of gas}$

$\text{Partial pressure of }CO_2=0.75mole\times 300Kpa=225Kpa=225Kpa\times \frac{0.145\text{ psia}}{1Kpa}=32.625\text{ psia}$

conversion used : (1 Kpa = 0.145 psia)

Therefore, the partial pressure of the $CO_2$ in the tank in psia is, 32.6 psia.
