<span>To solve this we need to balance the equations first.
 So Hg + S --> HgS is balanced
 One mole of Hg requires one mole of S to form one mole of HgS.
 Number of moles of Sulphur = mass/ molar mass = 157/32 = 4.906
So 4.90 moles of S reacts with 4.90 moles of Hg.
Hence there are 4.90 moles of 4.90 of Hg.
 Mass = number of moles * molar mass of Hg
Mass = 4.906 * 200.59 = 982.891g</span>

Answer:

983 g

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

Hg + S → HgS

The molar mass of S is 32.07 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 157 g are:

157 g × (1 mol/32.07 g) = 4.90 mol

The molar ratio of Hg to S is 1:1. The moles of Hg that react are 4.90 moles.

The molar mass of Hg is 200.59 g/mol. The mass corresponding to 4.90 moles is:

4.90 mol × (200.59 g/mol) = 983 g

An empty beaker weighs 39.09 g
Vinvika [58]
<span>To work out the volume of something from its density, use the compound measures triangle: mass over density and volume. To find volume that the beaker holds, divide the mass by the density. V = (388.15 - 39.09)/1. V = 349.06g/cm3. To find the weight of the beaker and the contents, first work out the weight (mass) of the mercury, with this formula: mass = d x v. M = 13.5 x 349.06. M = 4712.31. Then add on the weight of the beaker (39.09g). The total weight is 4751.40g.</span>

Latent heat is used to: 1. form chemical bonds. 2. change molecular structure. 3. change states of matter. 4. change the tempera
likoan [24]

Answer : The correct option is, (3) change states of matter.

Explanation :

Latent heat : It is defined as the heat required to convert the solid into liquid or vapor and a liquid into a vapor without changing the temperature.

There are two types of latent heat.

(1) Latent heat of fusion

(2) Latent heat of vaporization

Latent heat of fusion : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the solid converted to liquid at atmospheric pressure at its melting point.

Latent heat of vaporization : It is defined as the amount of heat energy released or absorbed when the liquid converted to vapor at atmospheric pressure at its boiling point.

Hence, latent heat is used to change states of matter.
