<u><em>1.5 grams of glucose is produced from 2.20 g of CO₂.</em></u>

To find the mass of glucose produced, first you must know the balanced reaction. For this, the Law of Conservation of Matter is followed.

The law of conservation of matter states that since no atom can be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction, the number of atoms that are present in the reagents has to be equal to the number of atoms present in the products.

So, in this case, the balanced reaction is:

6 CO₂ + 6 H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the amounts of moles of each reactant and product participate in the reaction:

  • CO₂: 6 moles
  • H₂O: 6 moles
  • C₆H₁₂O₆: 1 mole
  • O₂: 6 moles

So, you know that 2.20 g of CO₂ react, whose molar weight is 44.01 g/mole. By definition of molar mass, 1 mole of CO₂ has 44.01 g. So, the number of moles that 2.20 grams of the compound represent is calculated as:

moles of CO_{2} =2.20 grams*\frac{1 mole}{44.01 grams}

moles of CO₂= 0.05 moles

Now you must follow the following rule of three: if by stoichiometry of the reaction 6 moles of CO₂ produce 1 mole of C₆H₁₂O₆, 0.05 moles of CO₂ produce how many moles of C₆H₁₂O₆?

moles of C_{6} H_{12} O_{6} =\frac{0.05moles of CO_{2} *1 mole of C_{6} H_{12} O_{6}}{6moles of CO_{2}}

moles of C₆H₁₂O₆= 8.33*10⁻³

Being the molar mass of glucose 180.18 g/mole, the mass that 8.33*10⁻³ moles of the compound represent is calculated as:

mass of glucose =8.33*10^{-3} moles*\frac{180.18 grams}{1 mole}

<em>mass of glucose= 1.5 grams</em>

Then, <u><em>1.5 grams of glucose is produced from 2.20 g of CO₂.</em></u>

How did Thomson discover the electron?
Hoochie [10]

J. J. Thomson discovered electron by performing an experiment using cathode ray tubes. High voltage across is applied across two electrodes at that  causes a beam of particles to flow from the the negatively-charged electrode that is  cathode to  the positively-charged electrode that is anode. Properties of the particles, are tested using two oppositely-charged electric plates around the cathode ray. The cathode ray was deflected away from the negatively-charged electric plate and towards the positively-charged plate. This indicated that the cathode ray was composed of negatively-charged particles. And these negatively charged particles are called electrons.

The value of the solubility product constant for Ag2CO3 is 8.5 × 10‒12 and that of Ag2CrO4 is 1.1 × 10‒12. From this data, what
Lena [83]

Answer:

B) 7.7

Explanation:

For the reaction    Ag2CO3(s) + CrO42‒(aq) → Ag2CrO4(s) + CO32‒(aq)

Kc = (CO₃²⁻) / (CrO₄²⁻)

and the Ksp given are

Ag₂CO₃    ⇒  2 Ag⁺(aq) + CO₃²⁻(aq)    Ksp₁ = (Ag⁺)²(CO₃²⁻)  

Ag₂CrO₄   ⇒  2 Ag⁺(aq)+ CrO₄²⁻(aq)   Ksp₂ = (Ag⁺)²(CrO₄²⁻)

Where (...) indicate concentrations M

Notice if we divide the expressions for Ksp we get:

Ksp₁/Ksp₂ = (CO₃²⁻)  / (CrO₄²⁻) = 8.5 x 10⁻¹² / 1.1 x 10⁻¹² = 7.7

which is the desired answer.

Consider the double replacement reaction given below: HgNO3(aq) + KBr(aq) → HgBr (??) + KNO3(??)The state of matter for HgBr wou
Andreas93 [3]

Answer: The state of maater for HgBr is solid.

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble in water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.  

A double displacement reaction in which one of the product is formed as a solid is called as precipitation reaction.  

The balanced chemical equation is:

HgNO_3(aq)+KBr(aq)\rightarrow HgBr(s)+KNO_3(aq)
