3 0

Metals are solids, non metals are gasses and metalloids are in between metals and non metals. Also, metals have there atoms all close and packed, non metals have there atoms far apart, and metalloids have there atoms either close or far apart. Metals are separated form the non metals in the periodic table.

An unknown amount of mercury (II) oxide was decomposed in the lab. Mercury metal was formed and 5.20 L of oxygen was released at

Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

68.3g

Explanation:

1. Word equation:

mercury(II) oxide → mercury + oxygen

2. Balanced molecular equation:

2HgO → 2Hg + O₂(g)

3. Mole ratio

Write the ratio of the coefficients of the substances that are object of the problem:

$2molHgO/1molO_2$

4. Calculate the number of moles of O₂(g)

Use the equation for ideal gases:

$pV=nRT\\\\\\n=\dfrac{pV}{RT}\\\\\\n=\dfrac{0.970atm\times5.20L}{0.08206atm.L/K.mol\times 390.0K}\\\\\\n=0.1576mol$

5. Calculate the number of moles of HgO

$\dfrac{2molHgO}{1molO_2}\times 0.1576molO_2=0.315molHgO$

6. Convert to mass

mass = # moles × molar mass

molar mass of HgO: 216.591g/mol

mass = 0.315mol × 216.591g/mol = 68.3g

An iron pipe has a density of 7.86 g/mL and a volume of 324.4 mL. What is the mass of the iron pipe?

wlad13 [49]

Answer:

$Mass=2549.784 \ g$

Explanation:

The equation for mass is:

$Mass = Density * Volume$

We plug in the given values into the equation:

$Mass = 7.86 \ g/mL * 324.4 \ mL$

$Mass=2549.784 \ g$

Food spoils because of chemical reactions. Many types of spoilage occur because of the actions of microorganisms, such as bacter

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

refrigerating food will lower its temperature.thsi will hence slow down the rate of reproduction of bacteria and hence slows down its process

The moisture-control available in many refrigerators also helps slow the deterioration of foods, so that two of the three favorable situations for microorganism growth are eliminated.

Though the microorganism growth is slowed down at low temperatures, it still can occur at the 38 degrees of an ordinary refrigerator. Hence, the mold that grows on forgotten leftovers in the back of a refrigerator.
