Which of the following is not a common use of gypsum? a. wallboard/drywall for homes b. a primary ingredient for toothpaste c. s
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

pH reducing agent for acidic soils

Explanation:

Gypsum is not used to reduce soil pH because it will displace the soil H+ but there's no means of extracting the H from the soil. So the pH of the soil remains the same.

I'm looking at the barometer in my lab as I type this question. It says the pressure is 968 torr. What is this pressure expresse
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer:

1.27 atm.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Pressure (P) in torr = 968 torr

Pressure (P) in atm =...?

Thus, we can convert from torr to atm by doing the following:

Recall:

760 torr = 1 atm

Therefore,

968 torr = 968/760 = 1.27 atm

Therefore, 968 torr is equivalent to 1.27 atm.

The Ostwald process for the commercial production of nitric acid from ammonia and oxygen involves the following steps:
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

12 NH_3 (g)+ 21 O_2 (g) + \longrightarrow  14 H_2O (l) + 8 HNO_3 (g) + 4 NO (g)

Explanation:

The steps of the Ostwald process:

4 NH_3 (g) + 5 O_2 (g) \longrightarrow 4 NO (g) + 6 H_2O (g)

2 NO (g) + O_2 (g) \longrightarrow 2 NO_2 (g)

3 NO_2 (g) + H_2O (l) \longrightarrow 2 HNO_3 (g) + NO (g)

Combinning the equations:

4 NH_3 (g) + 5 O_2 (g) \longrightarrow 4 NO (g) + 6 H_2O (g)

+

(2 NO (g) + O_2 (g) \longrightarrow 2 NO_2 (g))*2

+

(3 NO_2 (g) + H_2O (l) \longrightarrow 2 HNO_3 (g) + NO (g))*4/3

=

4 NH_3 (g)+ 4 NO (g)+ 7 O_2 (g) + 4 NO_2 (g) +4/3 H_2O (l) \longrightarrow 4 NO (g) + 6 H_2O (g) +  4 NO_2(g) + 8/3 HNO_3 (g) + 4/3 NO (g)

Simplifying:

4 NH_3 (g)+ 7 O_2 (g) + \longrightarrow  14/3 H_2O (l) + 8/3 HNO_3 (g) + 4/3 NO (g)

12 NH_3 (g)+ 21 O_2 (g) + \longrightarrow  14 H_2O (l) + 8 HNO_3 (g) + 4 NO (g)

The overall reaction is endothermic becuase the formation of new chemical bonds requires energy consumption.
