1 answer:

5 0

This is a combustion reaction. Any reaction in which a hydrocarbon decomposes into carbon dioxide and water is classified as combustion. The energy used for the decomposition usually comes from intense heat, which is why combustion of a hydrocarbon almost always is associated with a source of fire.

Describe the observation Robert Brown made.

12345 [234]

Answer:

In 1827, Brown observed, using a microscope, that small particles ejected from pollen grains suspended in water executed a kind of continuous and jittery movement, this was named “Brownian motion”. ... This random movement of particles suspended in a fluid is now called after him.

A student wants to make a 0.600 M aqueous solution of barium sulfate, BaSO4, and has a bottle containing 12.00 g of barium sulfa

love history [14]

<u>Answer: </u>The volume of the solution is 85.7 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molarity is defined as the amount of solute expressed in the number of moles present per liter of solution. The units of molarity are mol/L. The formula used to calculate molarity:

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Given mass of solute}\times 1000}{\text{Molar mass of solute}\times \text{Volume of solution (mL)}}$ .....(1)

We are given:

Molarity of solution = 0.600 M

Given mass of $BaSO_4$ = 12.00 g

We know, molar mass of $BaSO_4=[(1\times 137.33)+(1\times 32.07)+(4\times 16)]=233.4g/mol$

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.600=\frac{12.00\times 1000}{233.4\times \text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{12.00\times 1000}{233.4\times 0.600}=85.68mL=85.7mL$

The rule of significant number that is applied for the problems having multiplication and division:

The least number of significant figures in any number of the problem determines the number of significant figures in the answer.

Here, the least number of significant figures is 3 that is determined by the number, 0.600. Thus, the answer must have these many significant figures only.

Hence, the volume of the solution is 85.7 mL

What is the main difference between electron configuration and orbital notation?

8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

Orbital Notation is more specific on where exactly the electron is placed.

Explanation:

When writing an electron configuration for an atom, rather than writing out the occupation of each and every orbital specifically, you instead lump all the core electrons together and designate it with a symbol of the corresponding noble gas on the Periodic Table.

the arrangement of electrons in the orbitals of an atom or molecule

While Orbital Notation is a visual transformation of the electron configuration. It shows you where each specific electron is placed and what its "spin" is.
