Answer & Explenation:

2H2 + O2 -> 2H20 is the balanced equation for the reaction of Hydrogen with Oxygen to form water so

If you have 32g of O2 this is a simple Dimensional analysis problem

32g O2 x 36.03056g H20/31.9988g O2 this way the O2 cancels out and you are left with just the H2O so your raw answer would be 36.0319112, then if your instructor requires a significant figure answer that would be to 2 significant figures the information you were given 32g O2, so as above 36g or Water are produced. Just a different way to view and solve the problem with the balanced equation so you can see the way everything relates to everything else. the molar masses of O2 and H2O are simply found my adding up 2 Oxygens 15.9994g x2 = 31.9988g and H2O = 2(1.00794) + 15.9994 = 18.01258 but you then have to multiply that by 2 because the reaction states you get 2 mols in the reaction so that is where I came up with the 36.03056g for the solution. Hope this helps. Dimensional Analysis is and can be one of the best ways to solve these problems, because not always are you going to be dealing with 1:2 ratios.

A sample of a gas has a volume of 852 mL at 298 K. If the gas is cooled to 200K, what would the new volume be?

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

571.81 mL

Explanation:

Assuming constant pressure, we can solve this problem by using Charles' law, which states that at constant pressure:

V₁T₂=V₂T₁

Where in this case:

V₁ = 852 mL

T₂ = 200 K

V₂ = ?

T₁ = 298 K

We input the data:

852 mL * 200 K = V₂ * 298 K

And solve for V₂:

V₂ = 571.81 mL

The new volume would be 571.81 mL.

In terms of electron energy band structure, discuss reasons for the difference in electrical conductivity between metals, semico

Tema [17]

The number of electrons in the valence shell determines conductivity. Metals, for instance, have a gap in their valence shell. This makes it simple to stimulate electrons so they can switch bands. There are no open electron sites in the outer shell of semiconductors and insulators.

For this to happen, an electron must have sufficient energy to cross into a different band. Consequently, a wider gap must be filled, using more energy. The band gap of insulators is wider than that of semiconductors. Therefore, the conductivity of a material has a direct relationship with the band gap size.The ability of water to conduct an electrical current is measured by its conductivity. Conductivity rises with salinity because dissolved salts and other inorganic compounds carry electrical current. Oil and other organic materials have a low electrical conductivity in water because they do not conduct electricity well. Temperature also has an impact on conductivity; the higher the conductivity, the warmer the water. Conductivity is a helpful indicator of water quality in general.
