Do you think the continents will ever rejoin to form another supercontinet like pangaea? why or why not?

If 12.6 grams of iron (III) oxide reacts with 9.65 grams of carbon monoxide to produce 7.23 g of pure iron, what are the theoret

Mariana [72]

The balanced equation is Fe₂O₃ + 3 CO = 2 Fe + 3 CO₂.
Next step is to convert everything to moles.
12.6g Fe₂O₃ x (1 mol Fe₂O₃ / 159.7g Fe₂O₃) = 0.07890 mol Fe₂O₃
9.65g CO x (1 mol CO / 28.01g CO) = 0.3445 mol CO
The third step is to determine the limiting and excess reactants.
0.07890 mol Fe₂O₃ x (3 mol CO/1 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.2367 mol CO
Therefore Fe₂O₃ is the limiting reagent while CO is in excess.

0.07890 mol Fe x (2 mol Fe(s) / 1 mol Fe₂O₃) = 0.1578 mol Fe(s)
0.1578 mol Fe x (55.84g Fe / mole Fe) = 8.812g Fe is the theoretical yield
%yield = (7.23g / 8.812g) x 100% = 82.0% is the percent yield

which gas law would you use to calculate the new pressure for a gas when the volume of the trapped gas changes while the tempera

meriva

Answer: Boyle's Law

-----

Boyle's Law is the pressure-volume law and it relates pressure and volume at constant temperature. Boyle's law states that pressure and volume vary inversely, meaning that as one goes up, the other one goes down.

Which kind of atoms would typically form an ionic bond?

Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

An ionic bond is a type of chemical bond formed through an electrostatic attraction between two oppositely charged ions. Ionic bonds are formed between a cation, which is usually a metal, and an anion, which is usually a nonmetal. A covalent bond involves a pair of electrons being shared between at

Electrons returning to the ground state from varying excited states always:

nata0808 [166]

Answer:

produce characteristic sets of energies, depending on the differences in energy between the excited states and ground state

Explanation:

The electron is jumped into higher level and back into lower level by absorbing and releasing the energy.

The process is called excitation and de-excitation.

Excitation:

When the energy is provided to the atom the electrons by absorbing the energy jump to the higher energy levels. This process is called excitation. The amount of energy absorbed by the electron is exactly equal to the energy difference of orbits. For example if electron jumped from K to L it must absorbed the energy which is equal the energy difference of these two level. The excited electron thus move back to lower energy level which is K by releasing the energy because electron can not stay longer in higher energy level and comes to ground state.

De-excitation:

When the excited electron fall back to the lower energy levels the energy is released in the form of radiations. this energy is exactly equal to the energy difference between the orbits. The characteristics bright colors are due to the these emitted radiations. These emitted radiations can be seen if they are fall in the visible region of spectrum

1. A gas having the following composition is burnt under a boiler with 50% excess air.

jeka94

The composition of the stack gas are :

$CH_4$ = 0.8713

$C_3H_8$ = 0.0202

CO = 0.107

<h3 /><h3>What is a mole fraction?</h3>

The ratio of the number of moles of one component of a solution or other mixture to the total number of moles representing all of the components.

Assuming 100 g of the stack gas. Calculate the mass of each species in this sample according to their percentages.

Mass of $CH_4$ : 70% of 100 g = 70 g

Mass of $C_3H_8$ : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Mass of CO : 15% of 100 g = 15 g

Now calculate the number of moles of each species:

Number of moles of $CH_4$ : $\frac{70 g}{16.04 g/mol}$ = 4.3 mole
