Answer:

B. 1.65 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇒ 2 SO₃(g)

Step 2: Calculate the moles of SO₂

The pressure of the gas is 1.20 atm and the temperature 25 °C (298 K). We can calculate the moles using the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V / R × T

n = 1.20 atm × 1.50 L / (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 298 K = 0.0736 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of SO₃ produced

0.0736 mol SO₂ × 2 mol SO₃/2 mol SO₂ = 0.0736 mol SO₃

Step 4: Calculate the volume occupied by 0.0736 moles of SO₃ at STP

At STP, 1 mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L.

0.0736 mol × 22.4 L/1 mol = 1.65 L

Why does waters boiling point decrease with increases in elevation

lesantik [10]

Answer:

Waters' boiling point decreases with increases in elevation because of the atmospheric pressure.

For example, the higher in elevation you are. The lower the atmospheric pressure is. In other words heated water reached boiling point quicker.

Why is U-235 the most common nuclear fuel instead of the more abundant U-238? State a clear topic sentence and support it with e

GREYUIT [131]

<h3>Answer and explanation;</h3>

The isotope U-235 is an important common nuclear fuel because under certain conditions it can readily be split, yielding a lot of energy. It is therefore said to be 'fissile' and use the expression 'nuclear fission'.
Uranium 238 on the other hand is not fissionable by thermal neutrons, but it can undergo fission from fast or high energy neutrons. Hence it is not fissile, but it is fissionable.
In a nuclear power station fissioning of uranium atoms replaces the burning of coal or gas. Heat created by splitting the U-235 atoms is then used to make steam which spins a turbine to drive a generator, producing electricity.

How can balancing equations support the law of conservation

amm1812

Answer:

detail is given below.

Explanation:

This law was given by French chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

For example:

In given photosynthesis reaction:

6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂

The given equation is balanced chemical equation of photosynthesis. There are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.

If equation is not balanced,

CO₂ + H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + O₂

It can not follow the law of conservation of mass because mass is not equal on both side of equation.
