Which of these is a form of a chemical weathering

1 answer:

8 0

Chemical weathering is caused by rain water reacting with the mineral grains in rocks to form new minerals (clays) and soluble salts. These reactions occur particularly when the water is slightly acidic.

The "air bags" that are currently installed in automobiles to prevent injuries in the event of a crash are equipped with sodium

stellarik [79]

Answer:

0.0177 L of nitrogen will be produced

Explanation:

The decomposition reaction of sodium azide will be:

$2NaN_{3}(s)--->2Na(s)+3N_{2}(g)$

As per the balanced equation two moles of sodium azide will give three moles of nitrogen gas

The molecular weight of sodium azide = 65 g/mol

The mass of sodium azide used = 100 g

The moles of sodium azide used = $\frac{mass}{molarmass}=\frac{100}{65}=1.54mol$

so 1.54 moles of sodium azide will give = $\frac{3X1.54}{2}=2.31$ mol

the volume will be calculated using ideal gas equation

PV=nRT

Where

P = Pressure = 1.00 atm

V = ?

n = moles = 2.31 mol

R = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

T = 25 °C = 298.15 K

Volume = $\frac{P}{nRT}=\frac{1}{2.31X0.0821X298.15}=0.0177L$

Anestetic [448]

Answer: The equilibrium partial pressure of chlorine gas is 0.360 atm

Explanation:

For the given chemical equation:

$PCl_5(g)\rightleftharpoons PCl_3(g)+Cl2(g)$

The expression of $K_p$ for above reaction follows:

$K_p=\frac{p_{Cl_2}\times p_{PCl_3}}{p_{PCl_5}}$

We are given:

$K_p=0.497\\p_{PCl_3}=0.651atm\\p_{PCl_5}=0.471atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.497=\frac{p_{Cl_2}\times 0.651}{0.471}\\\\p_{Cl_2}=0.360atm$

Hence, the equilibrium partial pressure of chlorine gas is 0.360 atm

Four molecules have carbon as the central atom and hydrogen atoms around it. Which shape would give rise to a polar molecule?

zzz [600]

Four molecules have carbon as the central atom and hydrogen atoms around it. The shape that would give rise to a polar molecule is a bent shape. The bent shape will not be symmetrical which will result to being polar. Hope this answers the question.
