A mineral is a naturally occurring chemical compound,
usually of crystalline form and abiogenic in origin. A mineral has one specific
chemical composition. Coal is not a mineral because it is organic while a
mineral is inorganic that have repeating crystalline structure.
Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
If two balloons are filled with hydrogen gas and helium gas respectively, then we want to identify what gas is in each balloon, we have to do so by exposing the both balloons to flame in an oxygen atmosphere.
Hydrogen combines with oxygen in the presence of a flame with quite a loud sound and the flame is sustained but when a flame is brought near helium gas in a balloon, the gas will only make a little sound when exposed to the flame and extinguish the flame.
The reason for the explosion of the gas in the hydrogen balloon is that combustion of hydrogen gas is exothermic. The heating up of surrounding air molecules leads to a sudden explosion.
However, the helium balloon makes a little sound when the balloon is ruptured releasing helium gas which extinguishes the flame.
Answer:
The reaction is endothermic.
Yes, absorbed
3.06x10¹kJ are absorbed
Explanation:
In the reaction:
2HgO(s) → 2Hg(l) + O₂(g) ΔH = 182kJ
As ΔH >0,
<em>The reaction is endothermic</em>
<em />
As the reaction is endothermic, when the reaction occurs,
<em>the heat is absorbed.</em>
<em></em>
Now, based on the equation, when 2 moles of HgO (Molar mass: 216.59g/mol), 182kJ are absorbed.
72.8g are:
72.8g * (1mol / 216.59g) = 0.3361 moles HgO.
that absorb:
0.3361 moles HgO * (182kJ / 2 moles) =
<h3>3.06x10¹kJ are absorbed</h3>
Answer:
295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .
Explanation:
Let the volume of 24% trichloroacetic acid solution be x
Volume of required 10% trichloroacetic acid solution =8 bottles of 3 ounces
= 24 ounces = 709.68 mL
(1 ounces = 29.57 mL)
Amount of trichloroacetic acid in 24% solution of x volume of solution will be equal to amount of trichloroacetic acid in 10% solution of volume 709.68 mL.
x = 295.7 mL
295.7 mL of 24% trichloroacetic acid (tca) is needed .
