<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 1.18 g.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We are given a chemical equation:
We know that at STP conditions:
22.4L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas.
So, 2.21L of carbon dioxide is occupied by = 
of carbon dioxide gas.
By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:
1 mole of carbon dioxide gas is produced by 1 mole of carbon
So, 0.0986 moles of carbon dioxide is produced by = 
of carbon.
Now, to calculate the mass of carbon, we use the equation:
Moles of carbon = 0.0986 mol
Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the correct answer is 1.18 g.
Answer: Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one. Examples, of mass extinctions are Permian extinction of marine species, and Cretaceous extinction of various species, including dinosaurs.
Explanation:
the physical and chemical properties of an element are periodic functions of their atomic number.
Answer:
2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2
Explanation:
The reaction performed in the experiment is;
2 Cu(NO3)2 + 4 KI → 2 CuI (s) + 4 KNO3 + I2
The iodide ions reduces Cu^2+ to Cu^+ which is insoluble in water hence the precipitate. This is so because iodine is a good oxidizing agent seeing that it requires one electron to fill its outermost shell. Potassium on the other hand is a good reducing agent since it easily looses its one electron.
The oxidation - reduction equation is as follows;
2Cu2^+ + 2e ----> 2Cu^+ reduction half equation
2I^- ----> I2 + 2e. Oxidation half equation
Balanced redox reaction equation;
2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2
