Which statement describes the movement of carbon dioxide in the carbon cycle?

1 answer:

6 0

The gas leaves the atmosphere as plants use it to make sugar.

Explain

since in the carbon cycle CO2 goes into plants, creating sugar molecules that the animals then eat and as a result breathe out the CO2 back into the atmosphere

Calculate the root mean square (rms) average speed of the atoms in a sample of xenon gas at 0.15 atm and -55c

GrogVix [38]

Answer:
Vrms is 149.7266 m/sec

Explanation:
The root means square velocity of a gas can be calculated as follows:
Vrms = $\sqrt{ \frac{3RT}{M}}$
where:
R is the ideal gas constant = 8.3145
T is absolute temperature = -55 + 273 = 118 degrees kelvin
M is the molar mass of the gas = 131.293 grams = 0.131293 kg

Substituting with these givens in the above equation, we would find that the Vrms is 149.7266 m/sec

Hope this helps :)

A chemist wants to extract copper metal from copper chloride solution. The chemist places 0.25 grams of aluminum foil in a solut

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer: The correct answer is about 0.20 grams of copper (II) is formed, and some aluminum is left in the reaction mixture.

Explanation:

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

$Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$

<u>Moles of Aluminium:</u>

Molar mass of aluminium = 27 g/mol

Given mass of aluminium = 0.25g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$Moles=\frac{0.25g}{27g/mol}=0.00925mol$

<u>Moles of Copper chloride:</u>

Molar mass of copper chloride = 134.45 g/mol

Given mass of copper chloride= 0.40g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$Moles=\frac{0.40g}{134.45g/mol}=0.00297mol$

For the given chemical equation:

$4Al(s)+3CuCl_2(aq.)\rightarrow 2Al_2Cl_3(aq.)++3Cu(s)$

By Stoichiometry,

3 moles of Copper chloride reacts with 4 moles of aluminium

So, 0.00297 moles of copper chloride will react with = $\frac{4}{3}\times 0.00297$ = 0.00396 moles of Aluminium.

As, the required moles of aluminium is less than the given moles of aluminium. Hence, it is considered as the excess reagent.

Copper chloride is the limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of copper chloride produces 3 moles of copper metal.

So, 0.00297 moles of copper chloride will produce = $\frac{3}{3}\times 0.00297$ = 0.00297 moles of copper metal.

Now, to calculate the given mass of copper metal, we use the equation required to calculate moles:

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

Putting values in that equation, we get:

$0.00297mol=\frac{\text{given mass}}{63.5g/mol}$

Given mas of copper metal = 0.188grams (approx 0.20grams)

For the given reaction, some of the aluminum is left behind because it is the excess reagent in the reaction.

Hence, the correct answer is about 0.20 grams of copper (II) is formed, and some aluminum is left in the reaction mixture.

When HCl is added to water, the [H3O+] = 0.6 M. What is the [OH-]?

makkiz [27]

Answer:

The answer is

Explanation:

To find the [OH-] we must first find the pH and the pOH of the solution

That's

pH + pOH = 14

pOH = 14 - pH

To find the pH we use the formula

pH = -log [H3O+]

From the question

[H3O+] = 0.6 M

pH = - log 0.6

pH = 0.22

pOH = 14 - 0.22

pOH = 13.78

We can now find the [OH -] in the solution using the formula

pOH = - log [OH-]

13.78 = - log [OH-]

Find the antilog of both sides

We have the final answer as

Hope this helps you
