Answer:

NH3 Ammonia

Explanation:

Ammonia has 4 regions of electron density around the central nitrogen atom (3 bonds and one lone pair). These are arranged in a tetrahedral shape. The resulting molecular shape is trigonal pyramidal with H-N-H angles of 106.7°.

Give reason why wood is solid?

VARVARA [1.3K]

Solid wood is a term most commonly used to distinguish between ordinary lumber and engineered wood, but it also refers to structures that do not have hollow spaces. Engineered wood products are manufactured by binding together wood strands, fibers, or veneers with adhesives to form a composite material.

Woof. Hope it helps!!! :) ....Reason*

If 16.29 grams of Na2SO4 is mixed with 3.697 grams of C and allowed to react according to the balanced equation: Na2SO4(aq) + 4

abruzzese [7]

Answer: The limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction is carbon metal.

Explanation:

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in large amount in a chemical reaction.

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in small amount in a chemical reaction. Formation of product depends on the limiting reagent.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For sodium sulfate:

Given mass of sodium sulfate = 16.29 g

Molar mass of sodium sulfate = 142 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of sodium sulfate}=\frac{16.29g}{142g/mol}=0.115mol$

For carbon:

Given mass of carbon = 3.697 g

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of carbon}=\frac{3.697g}{12g/mol}=0.31mol$

For the given chemical reaction:

$Na_2SO_4(aq.)+4C(s)\rightarrow Na_2S(s)+4CO(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of carbon reacts with 1 mole of sodium sulfate

So, 0.31 moles of carbon will react with = $\frac{1}{4}\times 0.31=0.0775mol$ of sodium sulfate

As, given amount of sodium sulfate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, carbon metal is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Hence, the limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction is carbon metal.

Electrical energy is used to turn the blades of a fan. The amount of energy transformed is seen here: 750 J electrical energy is

Alchen [17]

B) It was transformed into 350 J of heat energy.

Explanation:

The remaining 350J of energy must have been transformed into 350J of heat energy.

A fan works by converting electrical energy into heat energy.

According to the third law of thermodynamics "no system is 100% efficient". The conversion of the energy from one form to another involves a lost in energy.
Heat is one very familiar way by which energy can be lost.
Some component energy is used to heat the fan in the process and it is a wasted energy.
Friction surfaces a heat energy in this process.

The Kelvin scale is based on the concept of absolute zero.explain the concept

allsm [11]

Answer:Absolute zero is the lowest possible temperature where nothing could be colder and no heat energy remains in a substance. ... By international agreement, absolute zero is defined as precisely; 0 K on the Kelvin scale, which is a thermodynamic (absolute) temperature scale; and –273.15 degrees Celsius on the Celsius scale.
