Answer: Option (e) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Chemical formula of a nitrate ion is NO^{-}_{3} and it acts as a strong oxidizing agent because it itself gets reduced easily.

As we know that an oxidizing agent tends to oxidize other substances by itself gaining electrons. As a result, there will occur a decrease in its oxidation state.

The oxidation number of nitrogen in NO^{-}_{3} is +5. So, it gains electrons and helps in oxidizing other substances.

Thus, we can conclude that the nitrate anion is a strong oxidizing agent.

A steel cylinder of oxygen is being store in a room at 25.0 °C under a pressure of 1250 atm. What pressure would be exerted by t
Rudik [331]

Answer:

P₂ = 1312.88 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial temperature = 25°C

Initial pressure = 1250 atm

Final temperature = 40°C

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

Initial temperature = 25°C (25+273.15 = 298.15 K)

Final temperature = 40°C ( 40+273.15 = 313.15 k)

The pressure of given amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant volume and number of moles.

Mathematical relationship:

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

Now we will put the values in formula:

1250 atm / 298.15 K = P₂/313.15 K

P₂ = 1250 atm × 313.15 K / 298.15 K

P₂ = 391437.5 atm. K /298.15 K

P₂ = 1312.88 atm

To investigate the reactivity of metals a student uses four metals. Each time they added 1 g of the metal to 25 cm³ of sulfuric
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Volume of the sulfuric acid (25cm³), same mass of each metal (1g)

Explanation:

In an experiment, the CONTROL VARIABLE also known as constant is the variable that is kept unchanged for all groups in an experiment. This is done in order not to influence the outcome of the experiment.

In this case, students are trying to investigate the reactivity of four different metals. They added 1 g of each metal to 25cm³ of sulfuric acid and recorded the temperature change. Based on the explanation of control variable above, the VOLUME OF SULFURIC ACID (25cm³) and the MASS OF EACH METAL (1g) are the CONTROL VARIABLES because they are the same or unchanged in this experiment.

How many molecules are present in a drop of ethanol, c2h5oh, of mass 2.3*10^-2.3g? (NA=6.0*10^23mol^-1)
sdas [7]

Answer:

3.0 × 10²⁰ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of ethanol = 2.3 × 10⁻²°³ g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of ethanol:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 2.3 × 10⁻²°³ g / 46.07 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.05 × 10⁻²°³ mol

Number of molecules:

One mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.05 × 10⁻²°³ mol  ×  6.022 × 10²³ molecules / 1 mol

0.30 × 10²⁰°⁷ molecules

3.0 × 10¹⁹°⁷ molecules which is almost equal to 3.0 × 10²⁰ molecules.
