Answer:

mass ZnSO₄ = 50.2 gms (3 sig. figs.)

Explanation:

Pb(SO₄)₂(aq) + 2 Zn(s) => ZnSO₄(aq) + Pb(s)

=> Because coefficients of Zn and ZnSO₄ are the same, 0.311 mole Zn(s) yields the same 0.311 mol ZnSO₄(aq) .

=> Convert moles to grams by multiplying 0.311 moles ZnSO₄ by formula weight of ZnSO₄ (= 161.4 g/mol)

That is, grams ZnSO₄ = 0.311 mole ZnSO₄ x 161.4 g/mol = 50.1954 g ≅ 50.2 g (3 sig. figs.)

Answer: m = 50 g ZnSO4

Explanation: First is convert the moles of Zn to the moles of ZnSO4 by having their mole ratio which is 2:2 based from the balanced equation. Next is convert the moles of ZnSO4 to mass using its molar mass.

0.311 mole Zn x 2 moles ZnSO4 / 2 moles Zn

= 0.311 moles ZnSO4

0.311 moles ZnSO4 x 161 g ZnSO4 / 1 mole ZnSO4

= 50 ZnSO4

What volume of oxygen gas is released at STP if 10.0 g of potassium chlorate is decomposed? (The molar mass of KClO3 is 122.55 g

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

KClO3(s)+Δ→KCl(s)+32O2(g)

Approx. 3L of dioxygen gas will be evolved.

Explanation:

We assume that the reaction as written proceeds quantitatively.

Moles of KClO3(s) = 10.0⋅g122.55⋅g⋅mol−1 = 0.0816⋅mol

And thus 32×0.0816⋅mol dioxygen are produced, i.e. 0.122⋅mol.

At STP, an Ideal Gas occupies a volume of 22.4⋅L⋅mol−1.

And thus, volume of gas produced = 22.4⋅L⋅mol−1×0.0816⋅mol≅3L

Note that this reaction would not work well without catalysis, typically MnO2.

If the mixing ratio of a parcel of air is 6 grams per kilogram and the relative humidity is 25 percent, the saturation mixing ra

Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer: -

24 grams per kilogram.

Explanation: -

We know that

The mixing ratio = actual (measured) mass of water vapor (in parcel) in grams / mass of dry (non water vapor) air (in parcel) in kilogram

The saturation mixing ratio = mass of water vapor required for saturation (in parcel) in grams/ mass of dry (non water vapor) air (in parcel) in kilograms

Relative humidity = actual (measured) water vapor content/ maximum possible water vapor amount (saturation)

Thus saturation mixing ratio = Mixing ratio / relative humidity

= 6 / (25/100)

= 24

Compare and contrast diffusion and osmosis. Include at least one similarity and one difference between the two processes.

Softa [21]

Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a semipermeable membrane (usually cell membrane) from a region of low solute concentration to a more concentrated solution so it can reach equilibrium (balance).

Diffusion is a spontaneous movement of particles from an area of high concentration to an area of low concentration.

Both results in particles moving and help balance out the concentrations.
Also, in osmosis, the water molecules are moving. In diffusion, it is the solutes moving.

I hope this helps and explains well.

The psychoactive drug sold as a methamphetamine - "speed" (c10h15n) - undergoes a series of reactions in the body; the net resul

Phoenix [80]

Answer: The coefficient of nitrogen in the given equation is 2.

Explanation: The reaction for the oxidation of methamphentamine with oxygen gas in the body is given by:

$4C_{10}H_{15}N(s)+55O_2(g)\rightarrow 40CO_2(g)+30H_2O(l)+2N_2(g)$

By Stoichiometry,

4 moles of methamphentamine reacts with 55 moles of oxygen gas to produce 40 moles of carbon dioxide gas, 30 moles of water and 2 moles of nitrogen gas.

Coefficient of $C_{10}H_{15}N=4$

Coefficient of $O_2=55$

Coefficient of $CO_2=40$

Coefficient of $H_2O=30$

Coefficient of $N_2=2$

Hence, the coefficient of nitrogen in the given equation is 2.
