A major computer chip manufacturer has lost its supplier of silicon. Silicon is widely used in the semiconductor industry becaus

e its electrical conductivity is in between that of a conductor and that of an insulator.

-BARSIC- [3]3 years ago
6 0
We know, silicon is a natural semi-conductor, if manufacturer has lost its supplier then they can look for another element which is quite similar to silicon in electronic configuration. 
We should go down the group, next element in 14th group is "Germanium" so we can use that for that purpose.

In short, Your Answer would be "Germanium"

Hope this helps!

write a balanced chemical equation for each single replacement reaction that takes place in aqueous solution. write no reaction
Illusion [34]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Write a balanced chemical equation for each single replacement reaction that takes place in aqueous solution. write no reaction if a reaction does not occur

1.) Zn + PbCl₂

2.) Cu + Fe(NO₃)₂

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The reaction does occur.

<u>For 2:</u> The reaction does not occur.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Single displacement reaction is defined as the reaction in which more reactive element displaces a less reactive element.

The reactivity of metal is determined by a series known as reactivity series. The metals lying above in the series are more reactive than the metals which lie below in the series.

A+BC\rightarrow AC+B

For the given options:

  • <u>For 1:</u>

Zinc is more reactive than lead as it lies above in the series. So, it will displace lead from its chemical equation.

The chemical equation for the reaction of zinc and lead chloride follows:

Zn+PbCl_2\rightarrow ZnCl_2+Pb

  • <u>For 2:</u>

Copper is less reactive than iron as it lies below in the series. So, it will not displace iron from its chemical equation.

The chemical equation for the reaction of copper and iron (II) nitrate follows:

Cu+Fe(NO_3)_2\rightarrow \text{No reaction}

A container of N, 03(9) has a pressure of 0.490 atm. When the absolute temperature of the N, O2(g) is tripled, the gas
spayn [35]

Answer: 1.59atm

Explanation:

We have that for the Question "Calculate the final pressure of the gas mixture, assuming that the container volume does not change."

it can be said that

The final pressure of the gas mixture, assuming that the container volume does not change =

From the question we are told

A container of N2O3(g) has a pressure of 0.265 atm. When the absolute temperature of the N2O3(g) is tripled, the gas completely decomposes, producing NO2(g) and NO(g).

If you have 250 mL of 0.75 M LINO2.<br> How many grams of this substance<br> would you have?
Vesna [10]

Mass of this substance = 9.928 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Molarity is a way to express the concentration of the solution

Molarity shows the number of moles of solute in every 1 liter of solute or mmol in each ml of solution

\large{\boxed {\bold {M ~ = ~ \frac {n} {V}}}

Where

M = Molarity

n = Number of moles of solute

V = Volume of solution

So to find the number of moles can be expressed as

\boxed{\bold{n=V\times M}}

mol of substance -Lithium nitrite - LiNO₂ :

V = 250 ml = 0.25 L

M = 0.75 M

\tt n=0.25\times 0.75=0.1875

So mass of this substance -  LiNO₂ (MW=52,947 g/mol) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=0.1875\times 52,947 g/mol\\\\mass=9.928~g
