Answer : The mass of O_2 required is, 61.82 grams.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of C_6H_{12}O_6

\text{Moles of }C_6H_{12}O_6=\frac{\text{Given mass }C_6H_{12}O_6}{\text{Molar mass }C_6H_{12}O_6}=\frac{58.0g}{180g/mol}=0.322mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of O_2.

The balanced chemical equation is:

C_6H_{12}O_6(aq)+6O_2(g)\rightarrow 6H_2O(l)+6CO_2(g)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of C_6H_{12}O_6 react with 6 mole of O_2

So, 0.322 moles of C_6H_{12}O_6 react with 0.322\times 6=1.932 moles of O_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of O_2

\text{ Mass of }O_2=\text{ Moles of }O_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }O_2

Molar mass of O_2 = 32 g/mole

\text{ Mass of }O_2=(1.932moles)\times (32g/mole)=61.82g

Therefore, the mass of O_2 required is, 61.82 grams.

What is the pH of KOH solution that has H+= 1.87 x10^-13
kakasveta [241]
The pH of a solution is calculated as pH = -log[H+], where [H+] is the concentration of H+ ions. Based on the given concentration in the problem,
pH = -log(1.87 x 10^-13 M) = 12.73
Therefore, the pH of the solution is 12.73, and this implies a strongly basic solution.

Which describes an atom that has fewer neutrons than protons and more electrons than protons?
Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Option d is correct = Negative ion

Explanation:

We know that an atom consist of electrons, protons and neutrons. Neutrons and protons are present inside the nucleus while electrons are present out side the nucleus. Electron has a negative charge and is written as e⁻. The mass of electron is 9.10938356×10⁻³¹ Kg . While mass of proton and neutron is 1.672623×10⁻²⁷Kg  and 1.674929×10⁻²⁷ Kg  respectively.

Symbol of proton= P⁺  

Symbol of neutron= n⁰  

The number of electron or number of protons are called atomic number while mass number of an atom is sum of protons and neutrons. The  umber of protons and electrons are always equal to make the atom electrically neutral and when an atom loses its valance electron the number of protons increases and thus positive charge increased and atom form cation.

When an atom gain electron negative charge increase because of more number of electron thus atom form negative ion or anion. For example,

Anion formation:

X + e⁻ → X⁻

Cation formation:

X → X⁺ + e⁻

Thus option d is correct option.

What describes how the bond between two oxygen atoms is formed
HACTEHA [7]

The bond that exist between two oxygen atoms is called a double covalent bond. This bond involves the sharing of four electrons to obtain a more stable structure. This type of bond is much stronger than the single covalent bond. They are much harder to break.

Calculate the molarity of each of the following solutions. Use the periodic table if necessary. A salt solution with a volume of
Andru [333]

The molarity of the NaCl in the 250 ml slat solution is 2.8M.

<h3>What is molarity?</h3>

The molarity of a solution is defined as the concentration of a solute per unit volume of the solution.

Given, the volume of the solution is 250 ml converted into l 0.25

The number of moles of NaCl is 0.70.

By the formula  of molarity

M = \dfrac{n}{V}\\\\\\M = \dfrac{0.70}{0.25} = 2.8 M

Thus, the molarity is 2.8 M.
