If you are told that one of them is Cr2O3 and the other is OsO4, which one do you expect to be the yellow solid?

From own experience, I know that OsO4 is colorless, but Cr2O3 is actually a solid green from what I have seen. but I guess it could appear yellow-greenish.

Answer is: OsO₄ (osmium tetroxide or osmium(VIII) oxide).

Osmium(VIII) is colourless, but most samples appear yellow, because of the presence of the impurity OsO₂ (osmium(IV) oxide), which is yellow-brown in colour.

Cr₂O₃ (chromium(III) oxide) is light to dark green compound. It is used as a pigment. In this chemical compound chromium has oxidation number +3.

Calculate the total pressure in a 10.0 liter flask at 27°C of a sample of gas that contains 6.0 grams of hydrogen, 15.2 grams of
motikmotik

Answer:

The total pressure is 27.8 atm

Explanation:

From the ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

P (total pressure) = nRT/V

n (total moles of gases) = (6/1 moles of hydrogen) + (15.2/14 moles of nitrogen) + (16.8/4 moles of helium) = 6+1.1+4.2 = 11.3 moles

R = 0.082057L.atm/gmol.K, T = 27°C = 27+273K = 300K, V = 10L

P = 11.3×0.082057×300/10 = 27.8 atm

Nitrogen and hydrogen combine to form ammonia in the Haber process. Calculate (in kJ) the standard enthalpy change ∆H° for the r
Kazeer [188]

Answer:

∆H° rxn = - 93 kJ

Explanation:

Recall that a change in standard in enthalpy, ∆H°, can be calculated from the inventory of the energies, H, of the bonds  broken minus bonds formed (H according to Hess Law.

We need to find in an appropiate reference table the bond energies for all the species in the reactions and then compute the result.

              N₂ (g)   +            3H₂ (g)   ⇒                          2NH₃ (g)

1 N≡N = 1(945 kJ/mol)     3 H-H = 3 (432 kJ/mol)       6 N-H = 6 ( 389 kJ/mol)

∆H° rxn = ∑  H bonds broken  - ∑ H bonds formed

∆H° rxn = [ 1(945 kJ)   + 3 (432 kJ) ] - [ 6 (389 k J]

∆H° rxn = 2,241 kJ -2334 kJ = -93 kJ

be careful when reading values from the reference table since you will find listed N-N bond energy (single bond), but we have instead a triple bond,  N≡N,  we have to use this one .

This represents three steps of the rock cycle. The sediments are layered and compressed in sedimentary rock. The sedimentary roc
Ber [7]

ANSWER: C) Law of Conservation of Mass

EXPLANATION: In the given cycle, it is seen that th sediments are layered and gets compressed into sedimentary rocks which eventually gets heated and compressed to form metamorphic rocks. But, the total amount of minerals present in the sediments remains the same throughout any stage of the cycle.

This proves the law of conservation of mass which states that mass can not be created nor be destroyed, it can only be transferred from one form to another. So, in this case, only phase transition occurred but the component which is mineral inside the sediments remains constant.

Therefore, the answer is law of conservation of mass.
