Answer: A

Explanation: mechanical weathering —Water gets into the cracks, freezes and expands making the cracks bigger. When there is thawing, the ice melts into water and more water gets into the rock. Freezing can happen again and the cracks get bigger.

Draw the lewis structure for bef2 in the box at the right, including lone pairs.

Kamila [148]

Answer :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

The given molecule is, $BeF_2$

Beryllium has '2' valence electrons and fluorine has '7' valence electrons. Beryllium is the central atom and fluorine is the terminal atom.

Total number valence electrons in $BeF_2$ = 2 + 2(7) = 16

According to the Lewis-dot structure, there are '4' number of bonding electrons and 12 number of non-bonding electrons (lone-pair).

The Lewis-dot structure is shown below.

Which pair of samples contains the same number of oxygen atoms in each compound?0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO40.20 mol Br2O

Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

0.20 mol Br2O and 0.20 mol HBrO have the same number of oxygen atoms

Explanation:

0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO4

In Ba(OH)2 there are 2 moles of O atoms in every mol of Ba(OH)2.

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles Ba(OH)2 = 2*0.20 = 0.40 moles O atom

In H2SO4 there are 4 moles of O atoms for every mol of H2SO4.

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles H2SO4 = 4*0.20 = 0.80 moles O atom

⇒ 0.20 mol Ba(OH)2 and 0.20 mol H2SO4 do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

0.20 mol Br2O and 0.20 mol HBrO

In Br2O there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol Br2O

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles Br2O = 0.20*1 = 0.20 moles O atom

In HBrO there is 1 mol of O atom in every mol HBrO

Number of O atoms in 0.20 moles HBrO = 0.20 *1 = 0.20 moles O atom

⇒ in 0.20 moles Br2O and 0.20 moles HBrO we have the same number of oxygen atoms

0.20 moles of Oygen contains: = 0.20 * 6.022*10^23 = 1.2 *10^23 O atoms

0.10 mol Fe2O3 and 0.50 mol BaO

In Fe2O3 there are 3 moles of O atoms in every mol of Fe2O3

Number of O atoms in 0.10 moles Fe2O3 = 0.10 * 3 = 0.30 moles O atom

In BaO there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol BaO

Number of O atoms in 0.50 mol BaO = 1*0.50 = 0.50 moles O atom

⇒ 0.10 mol Fe2O3 and 0.50 mol BaO do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

0.10 mol Na2O and 0.10 mol Na2SO4

In Na2O there is 1 mol of O atoms in every mol of Na2O

Number of O atoms in 0.10 mol Na2O = 1*0.10 = 0.10 moles O atom

In Na2sO4 there are 4 moles of O atoms in every mol of Na2SO4

Number of O atoms in 0.10 mol Na2SO4 = 4*0.10 = 0.40 moles O atom

⇒ 0.10 mol Na2O and 0.10 mol Na2SO4 do not have the same number of oxygen atoms.

A sample of gas contains 0.1700 mol of NH3(g) and 0.2125 mol of O2(g) and occupies a volume of 17.8 L. The following reaction ta

telo118 [61]

Answer:

The volume of the sample after the reaction takes place is 19.78 L.

Explanation:

The given variables are;

Number of moles of NH₃(g) = 0.1700 mol

Number of moles of O₂(g) = 0.2125 mol

Volume occupied by the mixture = 17.8 L

The reaction

4NH₃(g) + 5O₂(g) → 4NO(g) + 6H₂O(g)

Then takes place

That is 4 moles of NH₃(g) reacts with 5 moles of O₂(g) to produce 4 moles of NO(g) and 6 moles of H₂O(g).

Since there are less number of moles of NH₃(g) (= 0.1700 mol) in the mixture, we factor the above equation by the number of moles of NH₃(g) present.

That is,

1 moles of NH₃(g) reacts with 5/4 moles of O₂(g) to produce 1 moles of NO(g) and 3/2 moles of H₂O(g).

Therefore,

0.1700 mol of NH₃(g) reacts with 5/4×0.1700 moles of O₂(g) to produce 0.1700 moles of NO(g) and 3/2×0.1700 moles of H₂O(g).

Which gives

0.1700 mol of NH₃(g) reacts with 0.2125 moles of O₂(g) to produce 0.1700 moles of NO(g) and 0.255 moles of H₂O(g).

Therefore, all of the NH₃(g) and O₂(g) are consumed in the reaction and the present gases in sample then becomes

0.1700 moles of NO(g) and 0.255 moles of H₂O(g).

Total number of moles of reactant = 0.17 + 0.2125 = 0.3825

Total number of moles of product formed = 0.17 + 0.255 = 0.425

However, Avogadro's law states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contains equal number of molecules.

That is volume occupied by 0.3825 moles of gas = 17.8 L

Therefore the volume occupied by 0.425 moles of gas = 17.8×0.425/0.3825 L = 19.78 L

Alexxx [7]

The normality that would be calculated will be to high because the change in volume will be greater than the actual change in volume. if the buret tip is not filled when reading the initial volume, the actual volume should be lesser with that reading. so if you will you the higher reading the change in volume or the volume you use in titration will be higher than the actual
