Why is a triangle stronger than a square?

1 answer:

7 0

Answer: Triangles are the strongest shape because they have fixed angles and don't distort very easily. Much of that works because the results from the characteristics of triangles, which are the strongest of all shapes.

Explanation: Hope this helps and I can get brainliest :)

Which of the following is the balanced equation for P + O2 → P2O5? Question 3 options: A) 4P + O2 → 2P2O B) P + 5O2 → 2P2O5 C) 4

Luden [163]

Given equation:

P + O2 → P2O5

In order for the equation to be balanced, the stoichiometry of the atoms of one kind on the reactant side must be equal to that on the product

Reactants Products

P = 1 P = 2

O = 2 O = 5

The balanced equation would be:

4P + 5O2 → 2P2O5

Reactants Products

P = 4 P = 4

O = 10 O = 10

Ans: D)

Litmus is an indicator
Charged particles are ions
Acids contain H+ ions
Bases contain OH - ions
Hydronium ions are H3O+

Now, I have to take issue with the last one
A base of pH 14 is not a strong base, it would be a highly concentrated base. A strong base is a base that completely deionizes in water.

But technically, for the purpose of your answer strong base = pH 14

When magnesium reacts with hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is formed: 2HCl + Mg → H2 + MgCl2. What is the volume of hydrogen pro

Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:- C. 16.4 L

Solution:- The given balanced equation is:

$2HCl+Mg\rightarrow H_2+MgCl_2$

From this equation, there is 2:1 mol ratio between HCl and hydrogen gas. First of all we calculate the moles of hydrogen gas from given grams of HCl using stoichiometry and then the volume of hydrogen gas could be calculated using ideal gas law equation, PV = nRT.

Molar mass of HCl = 1.008 + 35.45 = 36.458 gram per mol

The calculations are shown below:

$49.0gHCl(\frac{1molHCl}{36.458gHCl})(\frac{1molH_2}{2molHCl})$

= $0.672molH_2$

Now we will use ideal gas equation to calculate the volume.

n = 0.672 mol

T = 25 + 273 = 298 K

P = 101.3 kPa = 1 atm

R = $0.0821\frac{atm.L}{mol.K}$

PV = nRT

1(V) = (0.672)(0.0821)(298)

V = 16.4 L

From calculations, 16.4 L of hydrogen gas are formed and so the correct choice is C.

What is the limiting reactant in a chemical reaction?

IgorC [24]

Answer:

D.) the reactants that runs out first

Explanation:

Limiting reactant is the reactant which is present in the smallest amount and thus limit the yield of product.

In any chemical reaction limiting reactant is identified by steps:

First we will calculate the number of moles of given amount of reactants.

Then we will find the number of moles of product by comparing with moles of reactant through balanced chemical equation.

Then we will identified the reactant which produced smaller amount of product.

It can be better understand by following problem.

Given data:

Mass of calcium carbonate = 25 g

Mass of hydrochloric acid = 13.0 g

Mass of calcium chloride produced = ?

Which is limiting reactant= ?

Chemical equation:

CaCO₃ + 2HCl → CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂

Number of moles of CaCO₃:

Number of moles of CaCO₃ = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles of CaCO₃= 25.0 g / 100.1 g/mol

Number of moles of CaCO₃ = 0.25 mol

Number of moles of HCl:

Number of moles of HCl = Mass /molar mass

Number of moles of HCl = 13.0 g / 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles of HCl = 0.36 mol

Now we will compare the moles of CaCl₂ with HCl and CaCO₃ .

CaCO₃ : CaCl₂

1 : 1

0.25 : 0.25

HCl : CaCl₂

2 : 1

0.36 : 1/2 × 0.36 = 0.18 mol

The number of moles of CaCl₂ produced by HCl are less it will be limiting reactant.

Mass of calcium chloride:

Mass of CaCl₂ = moles × molar mass

Mass of CaCl₂ =0.18 mol × 110.98 g/mol

Mass of CaCl₂ = 20 g
