Beacuase it is one of the best conductors after silver and gold. And you can forge pennies.

1. A student attempts to make a saline solution by adding salt to water. How much water did

dexar [7]

111.1 mL of water

Explanation:

Weight per volume concentration (w/v %) is defined as

weight per volume concentration = (mass of solute (g) / volume of solution (mL)) × 100

volume of solution = (mass of solute × 100) / weight per volume concentration

volume of solution = (1 × 100) / 0.9 = 111.1 mL

volume of water = volume of solution = 111.1 mL

Hydrogen gas (a potential future fuel) can be formed by the reaction of methane with water according to the following equation:

rusak2 [61]

Answer:

60.42% is the percent yield of the reaction.

Explanation:

Moles of methane gas at 734 Torr and a temperature of 25 °C.

Volume of methane gas = V = 26.0 L

Pressure of the methane gas = P = 734 Torr = 0.9542 atm

Temperature of the methane gas = T = 25 °C = 298.15 K

Moles of methane gas = n

$PV=nRT$

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9542 atm\times 26.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 298.15 K}=1.0135 mol$

Moles of water vapors at 700 Torr and a temperature of 125 °C.

Volume of water vapor = V' = 23.0 L

Pressure of water vapor = P' = 700 Torr = 0.9100 atm

Temperature of water vapor = T' = 125 °C = 398.15 K

Moles of water vapor gas = n'

$P'V'=n'RT'$

$n'=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.9100 atm\times 23.0L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 398.15 K}=0.6402 mol$

$CH_4(g)+H_2O(g)\rightarrow CO(g)+3H_2(g)$

According to reaction , 1 mol of methane reacts with 1 mol of water vapor. As we can see that moles of water vapors are in lessor amount which means it is a limiting reagent and formation of hydrogen gas will depend upon moles of water vapors.

According to reaction 1 mol of water vapor gives 3 moles of hydrogen gas.

Then 0.6402 moles of water vapor will give:

$\frac{3}{1}\times 0.6402 mol=1.9208 mol$ of hydrogen gas
