If the mercury in a manometer raises 30.0 millimeters due to a change in pressure, what is the corresponding change in pressure

in atm?

Answer:

0.03947 atm

Explanation:

The relationship between mmHg and atm is given as;

1 atm = 760 mmHg

x atm = 30 mmHg

Upon solving for x;

x * 760 = 30 * 1

x = 30 / 760 = 0.03947 atm

2. Balance the equation below, and answer the following question: What volume of chlorine gas, measured at STP, is needed to com

Juliette [100K]

Balanced equation: 2Na(s) + Cl₂(g) ---> 2NaCl(s)

when we have STP conditions, we can use this conversion: 1 mol = 22.4 L

first, we have to convert grams to molecules using the molar mass, and then use mole to mole ratio from the balanced equation.

molar mass of Na= 23.0 g/mol
ratio: 2 mol Na= 1 mol Cl₂ (based on coefficients of balanced equation)

calculations:

$6.25 g Na ( \frac{1 mol Na}{23.0 g} ) ( \frac{1 mol Cl_2}{2 mol Na} ) ( \frac{22.4 L}{1 mol} )= 3.04 L$

Which of the following compounds contains the Lead (II) ion?<br> PbO<br> PbCl4<br> Pb2O<br> Pb2S

KATRIN_1 [288]

<span>PbO Let's look at each of the 4 compounds and see what's needed. PbO. * Oxygen has a valance shell that's missing 2 electrons and wants to get those 2 elections. Lead donates them, so you have a Lead (II) ions. This is a correct choice. PbCl4 * Chlorine wants to grab 1 electron to fill it's valance shell and Lead donates that election. However, there's 4 chlorine atoms and every one of them wants and electron, and lead is donating all 4 of the desired electrons making the Lead (IV) ion. So this is a bad choice. Pb2O * Oxygen still wants 2 electrons and gets them from the lead. But there's 2 lead atoms and each of them donates 1 election making for 2 Lead(I) ions. So this too is a bad choice. Pb2S * Sulfur is in the same column of the periodic table as oxygen and if this compound were to exist would have similar properties as Pb2O and would have Lead(I) ions. So this is a bad choice.</span>

How many moles of sulfur dioxide are in 2.26x10^33 sulfur dioxide molecules?

Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:moles = no. of molecules / Avogadro's number

= 2.26 x 10^33 / 6.022 x 10^23

= 3752906011

Round to significant figures which is 3 = 3.75 x 10^9 mol

Explanation:

The formula for finding how many moles of a substance when given the amount of molecules is: moles = number of molecules / Avogadro's number

Calculate the concentrations of all species present in a 0.26 M solution of ethylammonium chloride (C2H5NH3Cl).

Alina [70]

Answer:

0.00000223

Explanation:

pKa for C2H5NH3+ = 10.7

pKw = 14.0

pKa + pKb = pKw

10.7 + pKb = 14.0

pKb = 14.0 - 10.7

pKb = 3.30

C2H5NH3Cl is a salt of ethylamine and HCl so it will dissolve in water to produce C2H5NH3^+ + Cl^-

The base hydrolysis reaction: C2H5NH3^+(aq) + H2O(l) <=> C2H5NH2(aq) + H3O^+(aq)

This reaction is described by Kb.

Kb = [C2H5NH2][H3O^+]/[C2H5NH3^+]

Let [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+] = x,

so [C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 - x

Kb = x^2/(0.26 - x) = 2.00 x 10^-11

Let's solve for x. In this equation, It is possible to solve without the use quadratic equation. So we can assume that 0.26 - x is approximately equal to 0.26. We won't know until we do the calculation.

We get: x^2 + 2.00 x 10^-11x - 4.99 x 10^-12 = 0

With the use of a quadratic calculator.

x = 2.23 x 10^-6 M = [C2H5NH2] = [H3O^+]

0.26 - x is just 0.26 M in this problem because 2.23 x 10^-6 M is insignificant.

[C2H5NH3^+] = 0.26 M = [Cl^-]

NOTE:

pH = -log [H3O^+] = -log(2.23 x 10^-6) = 5.65

Ka is the acid dissociation constant

Kb is the base dissociation constant
