Answer:

Explanation:

Groundwater is stored in the open spaces within rocks and within unconsolidated sediments. Rocks and sediments near the surface are under less pressure than those at significant depth and therefore tend to have more open space. For this reason, and because it’s expensive to drill deep wells, most of the groundwater that is accessed by individual users is within the first 100 m of the surface. Some municipal, agricultural, and industrial groundwater users get their water from greater depth, but deeper groundwater tends to be of lower quality than shallow groundwater, so there is a limit as to how deep we can go.

4Cr(s)+3O2(g)→2Cr2O3(s) calculate how many grams of the product form when 21.4 g of O2 completely reacts

weqwewe [10]

Answer:

= 67.79 g

Explanation:

The equation for the reaction is;

4Cr(s)+3O2(g)→2Cr2O3(s)

The mass of O2 is 21.4 g, therefore, we find the number of moles of O2;

moles O2 = 21.4 g / 32 g/mol

=0.669 moles

Using mole ratio, we get the moles of Cr2O3;

moles Cr2O3 = 0.669 x 2/3

=0.446 moles

but molar mass of Cr2O3 is 151.99 g/mol

Hence,

The mass Cr2O3 = 0.446 mol x 151.99 g/mol

<u> = 67.79 g </u>

A solution is made by mixing 34.5 g of sugar with 75.0 g of water. What is the mass percent of sugar in this solution?

lubasha [3.4K]

the mass percent of sugar in this solution is 46%.

Answer:

Solution given:

mass of solute=34.5g

mass of solvent=75g

mass percent= $\frac{mass\:of\:solute}{mass\:of \:solvent}*100\%$

= $\bold{\frac{34.5}{75.0}*100\%=46\%}$

Given the following table, which statement is true about atoms A and B?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

The statement true is A. A and B are isotopes of the same element.

Explanation:

Isotopes correspond to atoms of the same element with different mass numbers (A), that is to say they differ in the amount of neutrons in the nucleus. In the case of compound A it has 10 neutrons, and B has 11.

What substance would you add to KF(aq) to form a buffer solution? View Available Hint(s) What substance would you add to to form

AnnyKZ [126]

<h3>Answer</h3>

<h3>Explanation</h3>

A buffer solution contains <em>a weak acid</em> and<em> its conjugate base</em>. The two species shall have a similar concentration in the solution. It's also possible for <em>a weak base</em> and <em>its conjugate acid</em> to form a buffer solution.

The KF solution already contains large number of $\text{F}^{-}$ ions. The objective is to thus find its conjugate acid or base.

$\text{F}^{-}$ contains no proton $\text{H}^{+}$ and is unlikely to be a conjugate acid. Assuming that $\text{F}^{-}$ is a conjugate base. Adding one proton to $\text{F}^{-}$ would produce its conjugate acid.

$\text{H}^{+} \; (aq) + \text{F}^{-} \; (aq) \rightleftharpoons \text{HF}\; (aq)$

Therefore $\text{HF}$ is the conjugate acid of $\text{F}^{-}$ . $\text{HF}$ happens to be a weak acid. As a result, combining $\text{F}^{-}$ with $\text{HF}$ would produce a solution with large number of both the weak acid and its conjugate base, which is a buffer solution by definition.
