Answer: Read Explanation

Explanation: Index fossils are useful because they tell the relative ages of the rock layers in which they occur. Geologists use particular types of organisms, such as trilobites, as index fossils.

Yes it is how ever close the rock is to the surface the younger it is

A 35.0 ml sample of 0.225 m hbr was titrated with 42.3 ml of koh. What is the concentration of the koh?
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The concentration of KOH is 0.186 M

Explanation:

First things first, we need too write out the balanced equation between HBr and KOH.

This is given as;

KOH (aq) + HBr (aq) → KBr (aq) + H2O (l)

From the reaction above, we can tell that it takes 1 mole of KOH to react with 1 mole of HBr.

We use the acid base formular in calculating unknown concentrations. This is given as;

\frac{CaVa}{CbVb}  = \frac{na}{nb}

where;

Ca = Concentration of acid

Va = Volume of acid

Cb = Concentration of base

Vb = Volume of base

na = Number of moles of acid

nb = Number of moles of base

KOH is the base and HBr is acid.

Hence;

Ca = 0.225

Va = 35

Cb = ?

Vb = 42.3

na = 1

nb = 1

Making Cb subject of formular we have;

Cb = \frac{CaVaNb}{VbNa}

Cb = (0.225 * 35 * 1) / (42.3 * 1)

Cb = 0.186 M

Given these reactions, where X represents a generic metal or metalloid 1) H2(g)+12O2(g)⟶H2O(g)ΔH1=−241.8 kJ 1) H2(g)+12O2(g)⟶H2O
Bond [772]

Answer:

ΔH = -793,6 kJ

Explanation:

It is possible to obtain ΔH of this reaction using Hess's law that says you can sum the half-reactions ΔH to obtain the ΔH of the global reaction:

If half-reactions are:

1) H₂(g) + ¹/₂O₂(g) ⟶ H₂O(g) ΔH₁ = −241.8 kJ

2) X(s) + 2Cl₂(g) ⟶ XCl₄(s) ΔH₂ = +356.9 kJ  

3) ¹/₂H₂(g) + ¹/₂Cl₂(g) ⟶ HCl(g) ΔH₃ = −92.3 kJ

4) X(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) ΔH₄ = −639.1 kJ

5) H₂O(g) ⟶ H₂O(l) ΔH₅ = −44.0 kJ

The sum of (4) + 4×(3) - (2) - 2×(1) - 2×(5) is:

(4) X(s) + O₂(g) ⟶ XO₂(s) ΔH = −639.1 kJ

+4×(3) 2H₂(g) + 2Cl₂(g) ⟶ 4HCl(g) ΔH = −369,2 kJ

-(2) XCl₄(s) ⟶ X(s) + 2Cl₂(g) ΔH = -356,9 kJ

-2×(1) 2H₂O(g) ⟶ 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) ΔH = +483,6 kJ

-2×(5) 2H₂O(l) ⟶ 2H₂O(g) ΔH = +88.0 kJ

= <em>XCl₄(s) + 2H₂O(l) ⟶ XO₂(s) + 4HCl(g)</em>

Where ΔH is:

ΔH = -639,1 kJ -369,2 kJ -356,9 kJ +483,6 kJ +88,0 kJ

<em>ΔH = -793,6 kJ</em>

I hope it helps!

Consider the following reaction: C6H6 + O2 \longrightarrow ⟶ CO2 + H2O 39.7 grams of C6H6 are allowed to react with 105.7 g of O
Ivenika [448]

Answer:

116.3 grCO2

Explanation:

1st - we balance the equation so that it finds the same amount of elements of the product side and of the reagent side

C6H6 +15/2 O2⟶ 6CO2 +3 H2O

2nd - we calculate the limiting reagent

39.2gr C6H6*(240grO2/78grC6H6)=120 grO2

we don't have that amount of oxygen so this is the excess reagent and oxygen the limiting reagent

3rd - we use the limiting reagent to calculate the amount of CO2 in grams

105.7grO2*(264grCO2/240grO2)=116.3 grCO2
