Answer:

34.9 g of Zn(OH)₂ is the maximum mass that can be formed

Explanation:

Let's state the reaction:

ZnO(s)  + H₂O(l) → Zn(OH)₂ (aq)

First of all, we need to determine the moles of each reactant and state the limiting:

28.6 g . 1mol /81.38 g = 0.351 moles of ZnO

9.54 g . 1mol /18 g = 0.53 moles of water

As ratio is 1:1, for 0.53 moles of water, we need 0.53 moles of ZnO, but we only have 0.351, so the limiting reactant is the ZnO.

Ratio with the product is also 1:1. From 0.351 moles of oxide we can produce 0.351 moles of hydroxide. Let's calculate the mass:

0.351 mol . 99.4 g /1mol = 34.9 g

if the density of a certain spherical atomic nucleus is 1.0x10^14 g cm^-3 and its mass is 2.0x10^-23 g, what is it radius in cm?
bagirrra123 [75]
Density as you should know is equal to mass/volume. Solve for the volume.

Now, you know that you are dealing with a sphere. You know the volume of a sphere is V= 4/3pi r ^3.

You know the volume so just solve for r

The value of ka for benzoic acid is 6.30×10-5. what is the value of kb, for its conjugate base, c6h5coo-?
Serggg [28]
Benzoic acid release protons in water:
C₆H₅COOH(aq) ⇄ C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq).
Benzoic acid conjugate base gain protons in water:
C₆H₅COO⁻(aq) + H⁺(aq) ⇄ C₆H₅COOH(aq).
Ka(C₆H₅COOH) = 6.3·10⁻⁵.
Ka · Kb = 1·10⁻¹⁴.
Kb(C₆H₅COO⁻) = 1·10⁻¹⁴ ÷ 6.3·10⁻⁵.
Kb(C₆H₅COO⁻) = 1.587·10⁻¹⁰.

The half-life of carbon-14 is 5730 years. therefore, 5730 years after being cut from a tree, a piece of wood will have 50.0% of
ddd [48]

For this problem, we use the formula for radioactive decay which is expressed as follows:<span>

An = Aoe^-kt

where An is the amount left after time t, Ao is the initial amount and k is a constant. </span>

<span>
</span>

<span>We can use the equation above to find the percent of the original substance at a given time. However, the time given here is equal to the half life of C-14. So the percent left would be 50% or half the original.
