Answer:

Chloride (Cl⁻) and sodium (Na⁺) ions.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the aqueous species are actually dissociated when reacting and the solid species (ferric carbonate) remains undissolved, we can modify the given reaction as follows:

$FeCl_2(aq) + Na_2CO_3(aq) \rightarrow FeCO_3(s) + 2NaCl(aq)$

In such a way, dissociating the aqueous species we obtain:

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+2Cl^-(aq) + 2Na^+(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq) \rightarrow FeCO_3(s) + 2Na^+(aq)+2Cl^-(aq)$

It means that the net ionic equation is:

$Fe^{2+}(aq)+CO_3^{2-}(aq) \rightarrow FeCO_3(s)$

Therefore, the spectator ions are those were cancelled out, chloride (Cl⁻) and sodium (Na⁺).

Best regards.

Assume the volume of the crew cabin is 74,000 L. The pressure is maintained at around 1.00 atm, ideally with an 80% nitrogen and

hjlf

Answer:

The number of moles of oxygen present in the crew cabin at any given time is 615.309 moles

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

Volume of the crew cabin = 74,000 L

Pressure of the crew cabin = 1.00 atm

Percentage of nitrogen in the mixture of gases in the cabin = 80%

Percentage of oxygen in the mixture of gases in the cabin = 20%

Temperature of the cabin = 20°C = 293.15 K

Therefore, volume of oxygen in the crew cabin = 20% of 74,000 L

Hence, volume of oxygen in the crew cabin = $\frac{20}{100} \times 74,000 \, L = 14,800 \, L$

From the universal gas equation, we have;

$n = \frac{P \times V}{R \times T}$

Where:

n = Number of moles of oxygen

P = Pressure = 1.00 atm

V = Volume of oxygen = 14,800 L

T = Temperature = 293.15 K

R = Universal Gas Constant = 0.08205 L·atm/(mol·K)

Plugging in the values, we have;

$n = \frac{1 \times 14,800 }{0.08205 \times 293.15 } = 615.309 \, moles$

The number of moles of oxygen present in the crew cabin at any given time = 615.309 moles.

chlorine has two naturally occurring isotopes, Cl-35 and Cl-37. The atomic mass of chlorine is 35.45. Which of these two isotope

Sliva [168]

Cl-35, as the atomic mass of Chlorine (35.45) is closer to the number 35 than to the number 37. A higher abundance of CL-35 isotope would have caused the atomic number (which is an average of the values of all isotopes of a substances taking relative abundance into consideration) to decrease from 36, which would appear to be the average.

An adult mosquitoes lifespan is about 16 days how many minutes is that

AVprozaik [17]

The answer is 23, 040 minutes. To solve this you can start by changing days in to hours. We know that there are 24 hours in a day. To find how many hours are in 16 days you multiply 24 by 16 which is 384. Next you must find out how many minutes are in 384 hours. we know there are 60 minutes per hour. To find how many minutes are in 384 hours, you multiply 384 by 60. To this you get 23, 040 which is your answer.
