Sea level increased and river planes drowned

Kaylis [27]3 years ago

3 0

As glaciers melted at the end of the last Ice Age worldwide sea level increased immensely and river plains were flooded. Glaciers are floating bodies of ice. Ice is frozen water. When glaciers started melting water that had been frozen for decades or centuries was released back into the ocean. That lead to an increase in sea level. This also led to river plains being drowned/flooded. Therefore, the answer is 1 and 2.

Of the following gases which will have the lowest rate of effusion at a given temperature?A. SO3B. CH4C. NH3D. HBr E. HCl

egoroff_w [7]

Answer: HBr has the lowest rate of effusion at a given temperature.

Explanation: The effusion rate usually increases with increase in temperature because the kinetic energy of the gaseous molecules increases. But it was not true for gases having heavier mass. This was explained by Graham's Law.

Graham's Law states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its molecular weight.

$(\text{Rate of effusion})_A\propto \frac{1}{\sqrt{\text{Mol. mass}_A}}$

We are given different gases with different Molecular masses. The gas having larger Molecular mass will have the lowest rate of effusion.

Mol. Mass of $SO_3$ = 80 g/mol

Mol. Mass of $CH_4$ = 16 g/mol

Mol. Mass of $NH_3$ = 17 g/mol

Mol. Mass of HBr = 81 g/mol

Mol. Mass of HCl = 36 g/mol

As, Mol. mass of HBr is the highest, so its rate of effusion will be the lowest.

Calculate the mass of excess reagent remaining at the end of the reaction in which 90.0 g of SO2 are mixed with 100.0 g of O2

Radda [10]

We have to first write a balanced equation.
so2 + o2 -> so3

this is not balanced though. we have 3 oxygen on right and 4 on left
2so2 + o2 -> 2so3

now it is same on both sides. we have to figure out which is limiting reagent with the given amounts of reagents. we do this by comparing the ratio between them in terms of moles. we see that so2 has a coefficient of 2 and o2 has none which implies 1 and so3 has 2. this means that for every 2 moles of so2 reacting with 1 mole of o2, we get 2 moles of so3.

lets convert the given values to moles. to do this we know that molecular weight is measured in grams per mole. we are given grams and need to cancel out the grams to get moles. so the molecular weight:
so2 =32.1 + 2 * 16 = 64.1 g/mol
o2 = 2 * 16 = 32 g/mol
so3 = 32.1 + 3 * 16 = 80.1 g/mol

now to convert 90 g of 2so2 under ideal conditions.
90g / 64.1g/mol = 1.404 moles

convert this amount of moles of so2 to moles of o2. we have 2 moles of so2 to 1 of o2
1.404moles so2 / 2 moles so2 * 1 mole o2= 0.702 moles o2

so we see under ideal conditions that 90g of so2 would react with .702g of o2. lets see how many we actually have with 100g of o2
100g / 32g/mol =3.16 mol.

so we have a lot more o2 than needed. we are looking for how much is left in grams. we have to figure out how much was used. to do this convert our ideal moles of o2 into grams.
.702 moles o2 * 32g/mol = 22.5g o2

so what we startrd with (100g) minus what we needed (22.5g) is what we have left
100 - 22.5 = 77.5g o2

A catalyst of copper mixed with zinc oxide and alumina is used in industry for this production of methanol. Explain the function

arsen [322]

Answer:Copper oxide + Hydrogen → Copper + Water

Copper sulfate + Zinc → Zinc sulfate + copper

Aluminium + Copper chloride → Aluminium chloride + copper

Copper + Oxygen → Copper oxide

Explanation:

Chemical reactions involves chemical combination of compounds or elements as reactants to form other compounds or elements.

In this case, various reactants given will react exhibiting different types of chemical reactions to form products.

First reaction

Aluminium + Copper chloride → Aluminium chloride + Copper

This is a single displacement reaction in which aluminium which is a more reactive element than copper displaces copper from its salt.

Second reaction

Copper oxide + Hydrogen → Copper + water

It is another example of a single replacement reaction. Hydrogen displaces less reactive metals from their oxide to form water and the metal.

Third reaction

Copper sulfate + Zinc → Zinc sulfate + copper

It is another single replacement reaction.

Zinc is more reactive than copper and therefore replaces copper from its salt solution.

Fourth reaction

Copper + Oxygen → Copper oxide

It is a synthesis reaction.

A synthesis reaction is a reaction in which elements or small compounds combine to form single compound.
