Answer:
116 g
Explanation:
From the question given above, the following data were obtained:
Number of mole of calcium = 2.9 moles
Mass of calcium =.?
The mole and mass of a substance are related according to the following formula:
Mole = mass / molar mass
With the above formula, we can obtain the mass of calcium. This can be obtained as follow:
Number of mole of calcium = 2.9 moles
Molar mass of calcium = 40 g/mol
Mass of calcium =.?
Mole = mass / molar mass
2.9 = mass of calcium / 40
Cross multiply
Mass of calcium = 2.9 × 40
Mass of calcium = 116 g
Therefore, the mass of 2.9 moles of calcium is 116 g.
White blood cells work in two ways; they can ingest or engulf pathogens and destroy them by digesting them. White blood cells can also produce antibodies to destroy particular pathogens by clumping them together and destroying them. They also produce antitoxins that counteract the toxins released by pathogens.
Answer:
47.2 g
Explanation:
Let's consider the following double displacement reaction.
3 FeCl₂ + 2 Na₃PO₄ → Fe₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 NaCl
The molar mass of Fe₃(PO₄)₂ is 357.48 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 44.3 g are:
44.3 g × (1 mol / 357.48 g) = 0.124 mol
The molar ratio of Fe₃(PO₄)₂ to FeCl₂ is 1:3. The moles of FeCl₂ are:
3 × 0.124 mol = 0.372 mol
The molar mass of FeCl₂ is 126.75 g/mol. The mass of FeCl₂ is:
0.372 mol × (126.75 g/mol) = 47.2 g
Answer:
Melting of snow
Evaporation of water from desk
Explanation:
Processes that increase the entropy of the universe are those processes that have an increased disorderliness. We should note that there are three principal states of matter which are the liquid, gas and solid. The gaseous state is the most disorderly while the solid is the least disorderly.
Now. We can see that the cooling of a hot cup of coffee is a process that needs or leads to a loss in temperature which obviously decreases disorderliness of the universe.
The melting of snow however is a process that leads to an increase in the disorderliness of the universe. It entails moving from the solid state to the liquid state. It tends to move to a more disordered state indicating an increase in the entropy of the universe.
The evaporation of water from the desk is quite similar to that above. Hence since we are moving from the liquid to the gaseous state via evaporation, we can state that the entropy of the universe has increased since we have moved from a state with a lesser degree of disorderliness to a state that is more disordered I.e from liquid to gaseous state.
