The reaction between calcium carbonate and hydrochloric acid can be expressed through the chemical reaction,
CaCO3 + 2HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The molecular weight of calcium carbonate is 100 g/mol while that of hydrochloric acid is 36.45. The equation above depicts that 100 g of calcium carbonate can be dissolved in 72.9 g of hydrochloric acid.
x = (4 g HCl)(100 g CaCO3 / 72.9 HCl)
x = 5.49 g
Answer: 5.49 g
2.41 molecules, should be it
Answer:
Option B will require a shorter wave length of light.
Explanation:
The bonding between Ozone (O3) and Oxygen (O2) can be used to explain why the breaking of oxygen into Oxygen radicals will require a shorter wave length.
- The bond between Oxygen (O2) is a double bond while Ozone (O3) has an intermediate bond between a double bond and a single bond.
- The bond order of Oxygen (O2) is equals 2 while that of Ozone (O3) is 1.5. Since the bond order of oxygen is higher, it will require more energy to break the bond compared to breaking the Ozone (O3) bond.
- Recall that Energy is inversely proportional to wave length.
- So it will require a shorter wave length to break the Oxygen (O2) into its radicals.
When 2 elements are combined it creates an ionic compound
