Answer:

The collision of oceanic plates and any other plates in which the oceanic plate slides beneath the other plate creates the biggest earth quakes. Most of these earth quakes occur beneath the sea or oceans and can cause volcanic eruptions as well. Tsunami is another oceanic event that occurs due to earth quakes occurring due to shifting of plates beneath the sea.

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Cl2(g) (green/yellow mix) + 2KBr(s) (white) ---> 2KCl(s) (violet) + Br2(g) (reddish brown)

This chemical reaction is a redox type.

Explanation:

Look at the oxidation state, when the number increase your element gets oxidated, when the number decrease, the elements it's getting reduced.

A dilute solution of bromine in carbon tetrachloride behaves as an ideal-dilute solution. The vapour pressure of pure CCl4 is 33

ANEK [815]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Vapour pressure of pure $CCl_{4}$ = 33.85 Torr

Temperature = 298 K

Mole fraction of $Br_{2}$ = 122.36 torr

Therefore, calculate the vapor pressure of $Br_{2}$ as follows.

Vapour pressure of $Br_{2}$ = mole fraction of $Br_{2}$ x K of $Br_{2}$

= 0.050 x 122.36 Torr

= 6.118 Torr

So, vapor pressure of $Br_{2}$ is 6.118 Torr .

Now, calculate the vapor pressure of carbon tetrachloride as follows.

Vapour pressure of $CCl_{4}$ = mole fraction of $CCl_{4}$ x Pressure of $CCl_{4}$

= (1 - 0.050) × 33.85 Torr

= 32.1575 Torr

So, vapor pressure of $CCl_{4}$ is 32.1575 Torr .

Hence, the total pressure will be as follows.

= 6.118 Torr + 32.1575 Torr

= 38.2755 Torr

Therefore, composition of $CCl_{4}$ = $\frac{32.1575 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}$

= 0.8405

Composition of $CCl_{4}$ is 0.8405 .

And, composition of $Br_{2}$ = $\frac{6.118 Torr}{38.2755 Torr}$

= 0.1598

Composition of $Br_{2}$ is 0.1598 .

State the periodic law, and explain its relation to electron configuration. (Use Na and K in your explanation.)

mina [271]

Answer:

Explanation:

The period law state that when elements are listed in order of their atomic numbers, the elements fall into recurring groups, so that there is a recurrence of similar properties at regular intervals.

Na and K in the periodic table fall into the same group, this is because they both have one electrons in their outermost shell.

Na 11 -1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1

K 19 - 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 3p6 4s1

They share similar chemical and physical properties. Na and K are very reactive metals, they can loose/donate their outermost electron to non metals in other to attain stable octet state.

The form ionic compound when they react with non metals.

A 26.08 g mixture of zinc and sodium is reacted with a stoichiometric amount of sulfuric acid. The reaction mixture is then reac

Over [174]

Answer:

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is 88,50%

Explanation:

The last reaction is:

BaCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2 NaCl

The moles of BaCl₂ are:

0,132L × 3,80M = 0,502 moles of BaCl₂

As the amount of BaCl₂ is the maximum possible to produce BaSO₄, the moles of BaCl₂ must be the same than moles of Na₂SO₄.

0,502 moles of BaCl₂ ≡ 0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄

These moles of Na₂SO₄ comes from:

2 Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

As the reaction is in stoichiometric amounts, moles of Na are twice the moles of Na₂SO₄

0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄ × $\frac{2molesNa}{1moleNa_{2}SO_{4}}$ × 22,99 g/mole = 23,08 g of Na

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is:

$\frac{23,08g}{26,08g}*100$ = <em>88,50% </em>

I hope it helps
