Suppose that you measure a pen to be 10.5 cm long. Convert this to meters.
Svetach [21]
If the pen is 10.5cm long, it is 0.105 meters. This can be worked out by considering that there are 100cm's in 1 meter, so you need to divide 10.5 by 100. You then move the decimal place 2 places to the right (because of the two zeros), which leads you to your answer of 0.105.

Chlorine can be prepared in the laboratory by the reaction of manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid. true or false
JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The given statement is true.

Explanation:

Chlorine gas is prepared by heating manganese dioxide with hydrochloric acid.T he reaction takes place in two steps

1) Reaction between manganese dioxide and HCl gives manganese(II) chloride along with water and nascent oxygen.

MnO_2+2HCl\rightarrow MnCl_2+H_2O+O...[1]

2) Then this nascent oxygen formed in above reaction oxidizes HCl into water and chlorine gas.

2HCl+O\rightarrow Cl_2+H_2O..[2]

So , the net chemical reaction comes out to be:

MnO_2+4HCl\rightarrow MnCl_2+H_2O+Cl_2

Fe2O3(s) + 3CO(g) ---> 2Fe(l) + 3CO2(g) Steve inserts 450. g of iron(III) oxide and 260. g of carbon monoxide into the blast
baherus [9]

Answer: Theoretical yield is 313.6 g and the percent yield is, 91.8%

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Fe_2O_3=\frac{450}{160}=2.8moles

\text{Moles of} CO=\frac{260}{28}=9.3moles

Fe_2O_3(s)+3CO(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(l)+3CO_2(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of Fe_2O_3 require 3 moles of CO

Thus 2.8 moles of Fe_2O_3 will require=\frac{3}{1}\times 2.8=8.4moles  of CO

Thus Fe_2O_3 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and CO is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of Fe_2O_3 give = 2 moles of Fe

Thus 2.8 moles of Fe_2O_3 give =\frac{2}{1}\times 2.8=5.6moles of Fe

Mass of Fe=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=2.6moles\times 56g/mol=313.6g

Theoretical yield of liquid iron = 313.6 g

Experimental yield = 288 g

Now we have to calculate the percent yield

\%\text{ yield}=\frac{\text{Actual yield }}{\text{Theoretical yield}}\times 100=\frac{288g}{313.6g}\times 100=91.8\%

Therefore, the percent yield is, 91.8%

What is the mass percent of vitamin C in a solution made by dissolving 5.20 g of vitamin C, C6H8O6, in 55.0 g of water
DiKsa [7]

Answer:

The correct answer is 8.4 %

Explanation:

The mass percent of a compound in a solution is calculated as follows:

<em>mass percent = mass of solute/mass of solution x 100</em>

The <u>solute</u> is vitamin C, so its mass is:

mass of solute = 5.20 g

The <u>solvent</u> is water, and its mass is 55.0 g. The mass of the solution is given by the sum of solute + solvent:

mass of solution= 5.20 g + 55.0 g = 60.2 g

Finally we calculate the mass percent:

mass percent = 5.20 g/60.2 g x 100 = 8.64%
