A space probe is an unpiloted, unmanned device sent to explore space and gather scientific information. A space probe is launched from Earth with a set of scientific instruments and tools used to study the atmosphere and composition of space and other planets, moons, or celestial bodies. A probe may operate far out in space, or it may orbit or land on a planet or a moon. It may make a one-way journey, or it may bring samples and data back to Earth. Most probes transmit data from space by radio. There are different types of space probes because they collect different science information about very different environments. The probes must be able to withstand the various extreme environments to collect data. Humans have been sending space probes into space since the 1950s. The next generation of probes will study samples taken from comets, asteroids, and eventually Mars.

How many grams of mercury are needed to react completely with 157g of sulfur to form hgs?

Salsk061 [2.6K]

To solve this we need to balance the equations first.
So Hg + S --> HgS is balanced
One mole of Hg requires one mole of S to form one mole of HgS.
Number of moles of Sulphur = mass/ molar mass = 157/32 = 4.906
So 4.90 moles of S reacts with 4.90 moles of Hg.
Hence there are 4.90 moles of 4.90 of Hg.
Mass = number of moles * molar mass of Hg
Mass = 4.906 * 200.59 = 982.891g

When nitrogen gas reacts with hydrogen gas, ammonia gas is formed. how many grams of hydrogen gas are required to react complete

aniked [119]

The balanced equation for the formation of ammonia is as follows
N₂ + 3H₂ ---> 2NH₃
stoichiometry of N₂ to H₂ is 1:3
we need to find the moles of N₂, volume of N₂ has been given
molar volume is where 1 mol of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at STP.
if 22.4 L is occupied by 1 mol
then 3.5 L of gas is occupied by - 3.5 L / 22.4 L/mol = 0.16 mol
number of moles of N₂ present - 0.16 mol
1 mol of N₂ requires 3 mol of H₂
therefore 0.16 mol of N₂ requires - 3 x 0.16 = 0.48 mol of H₂
mass of H₂ required - 0.48 mol x 2 g/mol = 0.96 g
0.96 g of H₂ is required

Which aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure?(1) 1.0 M KC1(aq) (3) 2.0 M KCl(aq)(2) 1.0 M CaC12(aq)

miss Akunina [59]

Answer:

(4) 2.0 M CaCl₂(aq).

Explanation:

Adding solute to water elevates the boiling point.

The elevation in boiling point (ΔTb) can be calculated using the relation:

ΔTb = i.Kb.m,

where, ΔTb is the elevation in boiling point.

i is the van 't Hoff factor.

van 't Hoff factor is the ratio between the actual concentration of particles produced when the substance is dissolved and the concentration of a substance as calculated from its mass. For most non-electrolytes dissolved in water, the van 't Hoff factor is essentially 1.

Kb is the molal elevation constant of water.

m is the molality of the solution.

(1) 1.0 M KCl(aq):

i for KCl = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 1.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kb)(1.0 m) = 2(Kb).

(2) 2.0 M KCl(aq):

i for KCl = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 2/1 = 2.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 2.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (2)(Kb)(2.0 m) = 4(Kb).

(3) 1.0 M CaCl₂(aq):

i for CaCl₂ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 3/1 = 3.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 1.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (3)(Kb)(1.0 m) = 3(Kb).

(4) 2.0 M CaCl₂(aq):

i for CaCl₂ = no. of particles produced when the substance is dissolved/no. of original particle = 3/1 = 3.

suppose molarity = molality, m = 2.0 m,

∴ ΔTb for (1.0 M KCl) = i.Kb.m = (3)(Kb)(2.0 m) = 6(Kb).

So, the aqueous solution has the highest boiling point at standard pressure is: (4) 2.0 M CaCl₂(aq).
