NaCl + H2SO4 ---&gt; Na2SO4 + HCl<br> Balance the double replacement chemical reaction.
VikaD [51]

Answer:

2NaCl+H2SO4-->Na2SO4+2HCl

Explanation:

There are two Na on the right, so put a 2 in front of NaCl on the left. This makes 3 Cl also, so put a 2 in front of HCl on the right. There are already 2 H on the left, so the equation is balanced.

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.

Identify the only polyatomic ion below that is NOT an oxyanion. Your answer: A Cyanide B Nitrate C Hydroxide D Sulfate​
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Cyanide

Explanation:

<em>Molecular Structure of Each Answer</em>

A:  CN-

B: NO3-

C: OH-

D: SO4 2-

As you can see, only A (Cyanide) is the only compound that does not contain oxygen, meaning it is NOT an oxyanion.
