Consider the balanced chemical equation: 2o3(g) → 3o2(g). how many moles of o2 are produced when 0.50 mol of o3(g) reacts
kiruha [24]
   2O3→3O2
 The  number  of moles of O2  that  are   produced  when 0.50  moles  of O3(g)  reacted is  0.75  moles

  calculation and explanation

   2  moles    of O3(ozone)  react  to give   3 moles of O2  (oxygen  gas,therefore the reacting   ratio  between O3 :O2 is  2:3

 
 if 0.50  moles of  O3  reacted  then,by use  of  reacting ratio (2:3)  find the moles of O2  produced

That is   0.50 x3/2  =  0.75   moles

If the half-life of 37Rb is 4.7x101 years, how long would it take for 0.5 grams of a 2 gram sample to radioactively decay?
k0ka [10]

<u>Answer:</u> The time required will be 19.18 years

<u>Explanation:</u>

All the radioactive reactions follows first order kinetics.

The equation used to calculate half life for first order kinetics:

k=\frac{0.693}{t_{1/2}}

We are given:

t_{1/2}=4.7\times 10^1yrs

Putting values in above equation, we get:

k=\frac{0.693}{4.7\times 10^1yr}=0.015yr^{-1}

Rate law expression for first order kinetics is given by the equation:

k=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{[A_o]}{[A]}

where,  

k = rate constant  = 0.015yr^{-1}

t = time taken for decay process = ?

[A_o] = initial amount of the reactant = 2 g

[A] = amount left after decay process =  (2 - 0.5) = 1.5 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.015yr^{-1}=\frac{2.303}{t}\log\frac{2}{1.5}\\\\t=19.18yrs

Hence, the time required will be 19.18 years

Does the density of an object depend on its size? Explain?.
evablogger [386]

No, the density of an object does not depend on its size.

A piece of glass with a volume of 10 cm³ may have a mass of 27 g. Its density is  

<em>D</em> = <em>m</em>/<em>V</em> = 27 g/10 cm³ = 2.7 g/cm³

A piece of the same type of glass with a volume of 20 cm³ will have a mass

of 54 g. Its density is  

<em>D</em> = <em>m</em>/<em>V</em> = 54 g/20 cm³ = 2.7 g/cm³

Thus, density does not change with the size of an object. Density is an <em>intensive property</em>.

What charge is the following metal? Zn3N2
Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

The charge on the metal is +2

Explanation:

Taking a good look at the compound zinc nitride, we will notice that it is made up of zinc and nitrogen.

Zinc has a common common oxidation state of +2 while nitrogen has a common oxidation state of -3. When the two atoms combine, the individual charges on them will be +2 for zinc and -3 for nitrogen according to their common oxidation states.

Hence the answer.
