An atom does not have to have equal numbers of protons and ________________

Which type of formula represents the simplest whole-number ratio of atoms of the elements in a compound?

sleet_krkn [62]

The empirical formula represents the simplest whole number shows the simplest whole number ratio of atoms in a compound. An example of this is the empirical formula for glucose (C₆H₁₂O₆) is C₃H₆O₃.

I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.

The combustion of ethene in the presence of excess oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water: c2h4 (g) + 3o2 (g) → 2co2 (g) + 2h2o

meriva

Answer:

$\boxed{-267.5}$

Explanation:

You can calculate the entropy change of a reaction by using the standard molar entropies of reactants and products.

The formula is

$\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = \sum_n {nS_{\text{products}}^{\circ} - \sum_{m} {mS_{\text{reactants}}^{\circ}}}$

The equation for the reaction is

C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

ΔS°/J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹ 219.5 205.0 213.6 69.9

$\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = (2\times213.6 + 2\times69.9) - (1\times219.5 + 3\times205.0)\\\\= 567.0 - 834.5 = \boxed{-267.5 \text{ J}\cdot\text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}$

Magnesium metal (0.100 mol) and a volume of aqueous hydrochloric acid that contains 0.500 mol of HCl are combined and react to c

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

2.24 L of hydrogen gas, measured at STP, are produced.

Explanation:

Given, Moles of magnesium metal, $Mg$ = 0.100 mol

Moles of hydrochloric acid, $HCl$ = 0.500 mol

According to the reaction shown below:-

$Mg_{(s)} + 2HCl_{(aq)}\rightarrow MgCl_2_{(aq)} + H_2_{(g)}$

1 mole of Mg reacts with 2 moles of $HCl$

0.100 mol of Mg reacts with 2*0.100 mol of $HCl$

Moles of $HCl$ must react = 0.200 mol

Available moles of $HCl$ = 0.500 moles

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, $Mg$ is limiting reagent.

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

1 mole of $Mg$ on reaction forms 1 mole of $H_2$

0.100 mole of $Mg$ on reaction forms 0.100 mole of $H_2$

Mole of $H_2$ = 0.100 mol

At STP,

Pressure = 1 atm

Temperature = 273.15 K

Volume = ?

Using ideal gas equation as:

$PV=nRT$

where,

P is the pressure

V is the volume

n is the number of moles

T is the temperature

R is Gas constant having value = 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol

Applying the equation as:

1 atm × V L = 0.100 × 0.0821 L.atm/K.mol × 273.15 K

2.24 L of hydrogen gas, measured at STP, are produced.

HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2

Igoryamba

Answer:

2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2

Explanation:

HgS + O2 → HgO + SO2

The equation can be balance as follow:

Put 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

HgS + 3O2 → HgO + SO2

Now we can see that there are 6 atoms of O on the left side of the equation and a total of 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgO and SO2 as shown below:

HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

Now we have 2 atoms of both Hg and S on the right side and 1atom each on the left. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of HgS as shown below:

2HgS + 3O2 → 2HgO + 2SO2

Now the equation is balanced.

The coefficients are: 2, 3, 2, 2

The law of conservation of mass(matter) states that matter(mass) can neither be created nor destroyed during a chemical reaction but changes from one form to another. An unbalanced equation suggests that matter has been created or destroyed. While a balanced equation proofs that matter can never be created but changes to different form. This is the more reason we have count the atoms of an element on both side of the equation to see if they are balanced irrespective of the new form they assume in the product
