What causes convection currents in a gas or liquid?​

Chemistry

Answer:

Convection currents are caused by a temperature difference in gases and liquids. As one area becomes warmer than another the molecules have more energy and start vibrating more vigorously thus spreading out and becoming less dense. This means that the less dense parts will become more buoyant causing them to rise.

Zinc reacts with hydrochloric acid according to the reaction equation Zn ( s ) + 2 HCl ( aq ) ⟶ ZnCl 2 ( aq ) + H 2 ( g ) How ma
REY [17]

Answer:

34.7mL

Explanation:

First we have to convert our grams of Zinc to moles of zinc so we can relate that number to our chemical equation.

So: 6.25g Zn x (1 mol / 65.39 g) = 0.0956 mol Zn

All that was done above was multiplying the grams of zinc by the reciprocal of zincs molar mass so our units would cancel and leave us with moles of zinc.

So now we need to go to HCl!

To do that we multiply by the molar coefficients in the chemical equation:

\frac{0.0956g Zn}{1 } (\frac{2 mol HCl}{1molZn})

This leaves us with 2(0.0956) = 0.1912 mol HCl

Now we use the relationship M= moles / volume , to calculate our volume

Rearranging we get that V = moles / M

Now we plug in: V = 0.1912 mol HCl / 5.50 M HCl

V= 0.0347 L

To change this to milliliters we multiply by 1000 so:

34.7 mL

What volume would 0.853 moles of Nitrogen gas occupy at STP?
beks73 [17]

Answer:

19.12 L

Explanation:

At STP(i.e. Standard temperature and pressure).

The volume occupied by one mole of gas = 22.4 L

The pressure = 1 atm

The temperature = 273 K

Thus, since 1 mole of gas = 22.4 L;

Then 0.853 moles of N2 gas will occupy:

= (0.853 moles of N2 gas × 22.4 L)/ 1 mole of N2 gas

= 19.12 L
