In one of his experiments, Lavoisier placed 10.0 grams of mercury (II) oxide into a sealed container and heated it. The mercury

(II) oxide then reacted in the presence of heat to produce 9.3 grams of mercury. Oxygen gas was another product in the reaction. According to the law of conservation of mass, how much oxygen gas would have been produced?

Oxygen gas produced : 0.7 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

10.0 grams HgO

9.3 grams Hg

Required

Oxygen gas produced

Solution

Reaction⇒Decomposition

2HgO(s)⇒2Hg(l)+O₂(g)

Conservation of mass applies to a closed system, where the masses before and after the reaction are the same

mass of reactants = mass of products

mass  HgO = mass Hg + mass O₂

10 g = 9.3 g + mass O₂

mass O₂ = 0.7 g

DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Option D. ZnCl₂ and H₂

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following equation was obtained:

2HCl + Zn —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

Products =?

In a chemical equation, reactants are located on the left side while products are located on the right side i.e

Reactants —> Products

Now, considering the equation from the question i.e

2HCl + Zn —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

The products are ZnCl₂ and H₂ because from our discussion above, we said that products are only located on the right side of chemical equation.

Thus, option D gives the correct answer to the question.

enmoles of helium gas and one mole of solid argon are in thermal equilibrium with each other at 10 K. Both helium and argon are
oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

Average speed of helium is higher than argon.

Explanation:

The average speed of helium is higher than argon atom under the conditions specified because of lower mass of the helium atom as compared to argon atom. Average speed of an atom is inversely proportional to mass of the atom. If mass of an atom decreases, the atom moves with higher speed while on the other hand, if the mass of an atom increases the average speed of an atom decreases.

Which color in the rainbow has the longest wavelength? 1. orange 2. blue3. yellow4.green 5. red
rodikova [14]

In rainbow, the color that has the longest wavelength is red which means option 5 is the correct choice.

Dispersion is described to be the spreading of white mild into its complete spectrum of colors, in truth we also can say a complete spectrum of wavelengths. The white mild turns into from solar and includes seven colors. On one end of the spectrum is red with the longest wavelength. Blue or violet mild has the shortest wavelength. White mild is a aggregate of all hues withinside the color spectrum. The colors of the rainbow are: Red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

Therefore, option 5 is the correct choice.
