<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

All physical changes can be identified at the macroscopic level. true or false
Aliun [14]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The physical changes are reversible in most cases and these changes are not the chemical changes which means that it is only the change in its state not in their nature. Just take the example of water, on cooling it becomes solid and change in color can be seen which is white in solid form and colorless in liquid form. This is also reversible and is a physical change. This means that physical changes can be identified at macroscopic level. Hence the answer is true.

The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be prod
Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The grams that would be produced  from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol is 7.923grams

calculation

Step 1: write the chemical equation for the reaction

CH3CH2CH2COOH + CH3CH2OH →  CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3  +H2O

step 2: find the moles of butanoic acid

moles= mass/ molar mass

=  7.70 g/ 88 g/mol=0.0875 moles

Step 3:  use the mole ratio to determine the moles of ethyl butyrate

moles ratio of CH3CH2CH2COOH :CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3  is 1:1 therefore the moles of CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 = 0.0875  x78/100=0.0683moles

step 4: find mass = moles x molar mass

 =  0.0683 moles  x116 g/mol=7.923grams

<u>answer</u> 1<u> </u><u>:</u>

Law of conservation of momentum states that

For two or more bodies in an isolated system acting upon each other, their total momentum remains constant unless an external force is applied. Therefore, momentum can neither be created nor destroyed.

<u>answer</u><u> </u><u>2</u><u>:</u><u> </u>

When a substance is provided energy<u> </u>in the form of heat, it's temperature increases. The extent of temperature increase is determined by the heat capacity of the substance. The larger the heat capacity of a substance, the more energy is required to raise its temperature.

When a substance undergoes a FIRST ORDER phase change, its temperature remains constant as long as the phase change remains incomplete. When ice at -10 degrees C is heated, its temperature rises until it reaches 0 degrees C. At that temperature, it starts melting and solid water is converted to liquid water. During this time, all the heat energy provided to the system is USED UP in the process of converting solid to the liquid. Only when all the solid is converted, is the heat used to raise the temperature of the liquid.

This is what results in the flat part of the freezing/melting of condensation/boiling curve. In this flat region, the heat capacity of the substance is infinite. This is the famous "divergence" of the heat capacity during a first order phase transition.

There are certain phase transitions where the heat capacity does not become infinitely large, such as the process of a non-magnetic substance becoming a magnetic substance (when cooled below the so-called Curie temperature).

a metal forms two oxides. The higher oxide contains 80% metal. 0.72g of the lower oxide gave 0.8g of the higher oxide when oxidi
zzz [600]

Answer:

0.72 g of the lower oxide gave 0.8 g of higher oxide when oxidised. ... Thus, 90g of lower oxide contains as much metal as 100g of higher oxide, i.e., 80g (given). Hence, 80g of metal combines with 10g of oxygen in the lower oxide and 20g of oxygen in the higher oxide.
