2. Why are there so many volcanoes in California? <br>

Kruka [31]

Answer:

Most higher risk volcanoes are far from California’s largest cities and several produce heat that’s used to generate electricity in what are the world’s most productive geothermal power plants, such as the Salton Buttes, 160 miles southeast of Los Angeles, and the Clear Lake Volcanic Field 85 miles north of San Francisco that powers the Geysers steam field.

What is the % composition of Carbon in Chromium (iii) Carbonate

photoshop1234 [79]

Step 1 - Discovering the ionic formula of Chromium (III) Carbonate

Chromium (III) Carbonate is formed by the ionic bonding between Chromium (III) (Cr(3+)) and Carbonate (CO3(2-)):

$Cr^{3+}+CO^{2-}_3\rightarrow Cr_2(CO_3)_3$

Step 2 - Finding the molar mass of the substance

To find the molar mass, we need to multiply the molar mass of each element by the number of times it appears in the formula of the substance and, finally, sum it all up.

The molar masses are 12 g/mol for C; 16 g/mol for O and 52 g/mol for Cr. We have thus:

$\begin{gathered} C\rightarrow3\times12=36 \\ \\ O\rightarrow9\times16=144 \\ \\ Cr\rightarrow2\times52=104 \end{gathered}$

The molar mass will be thus:

$M=36+104+144=284\text{ g/mol}$

Step 3 - Finding the percent composition of carbon

As we saw in the previous step, the molar mass of Cr2(CO3)3 is 284 g/mol. From this molar mass, 36 g/mol come from C. We can set the following proportion:

$\begin{gathered} 284\text{ g/mol ---- 100\%} \\ 36\text{ g/mol ----- x} \\ \\ x=\frac{36\times100}{284}=\frac{3600}{284}=12.7\text{ \%} \end{gathered}$

The percent composition of Carbon is thus 12.7 %.

Draw the major product for the reaction of 1-butyne with water in the presence of catalytic TfOH (i.e., CF3SO3H). Then answer th

Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

2-Butanone

Explanation:

From the given information:

The presence of mercury as an acid catalyst brings about the addition of water to the triple bond which yields enol. Then, according to Markownikov's rule and after tautomerism has occurred, we have a methyl ketone ( 2- Butanone) as the product.

The answer regarding the transformation is addition and hydration.

The mole concept is important in chemistry because 1. it allows us to distinguish between elements and compounds. 2. it provides

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:
<span>The mole concept is important in chemistry because, "</span>Atoms and molecules are very small and the mole concept allows us to count atoms and molecules by weighing macroscopic amounts of material".

Explanation:
To understand this question lets take an example of Hydrogen atom. Let suppose you need to react Hydrogen with Oxygen. You need exactly Two Hydrogen atoms and one Oxygen atom to form one water molecule.
The mass of 1 hydrogen atom is 1.76 × 10⁻²⁴ grams. How will you count the Hydrogen atoms??? How can you measure exactly for 1 Million Hydrogen Atoms???
Answer to these questions and Calculations lies in Mole. It is found that 1 Mole of Hydrogen weights exactly 1.008 gram and contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms. Now, having this reference in hand you can calculate for any number of Hydrogen atoms.

Result:
So the Mole helps us to zoom a microscopic level to a macroscopic level. :)
