While an electromagnetic wave<span> is called just a disturbance, a </span>mechanical wave<span> is considered a periodic disturbance. </span>Mechanical waves<span> are also called elastic </span>waves<span>as their propagation depends on the elastic properties of the medium through which the </span>waves<span> pass.</span>

A certain sample of coal contains 1.60 percent sulfur by mass. when the coal is burned, the sulfur is converted to sulfur dioxid
alina1380 [7]
<span>1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide The reaction looks like SO2 + CaO => CaSO3 First, determine the mass of sulfur in the coal 5.00 x 10^6 * 1.60 x 10^-2 = 8.00 x 10^4 Now lookup the atomic weights of Sulfur, Calcium, and Oxygen. Sulfur = 32.065 Calcium = 40.078 Oxygen = 15.999 Calculate the molar mass of CaO CaO = 40.078 + 15.999 = 56.077 Since 1 atom of sulfur makes 1 atom of sulfur dioxide, we don't need the molar mass of sulfur dioxide. We merely need the number of moles of sulfur we're burning. divide the mass of sulfur by the atomic weight. 8.00 x 10^4 / 32.065 = 2.49 x 10^3 moles Since 1 molecule of sulfur dioxide is reacted with 1 molecule of calcium oxide, just multiply the number of moles needed by the molar mass 2.49 x 10^3 * 56.077 = 1.40 x 10^5 So you need to use 1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide per day to treat the sulfur dioxide generated by burning 5.00 x 10^6 kilograms of coal with 1.60% sulfur.</span>

1. Calcium chloride is a salt that is added to roads and sidewalks
Sholpan [36]

Answer:

(d) In the presence of sulfuric acid, calcium chloride reacts to form hydrogen chloride.

Explanation:

It's because it lowers the melting point of the ice / etc so I think it is, but check it yourself too!
