Answer:

8 should be placed in front of SO₂.

Explanation:

The easiest way to solve this question is by writing the entire balanced equation:

4FeS₂ + 11O₂ -> 2Fe₂O₃ + 8SO₂

We can achieve this by first balancing the Fe, then S, and finally the O.

We can also double check our answer by counting the number of each element on both sides:

-Reactants: 4 Fe, 8 S, 22 O

-Products: 4 Fe 8 S, 22 O

Since they match, our equation is balanced, and the coefficient in front of SO₂ is 8.

Decide whether the compound is ionic or molecular, if you can.

Aleks [24]

Answer:

Ionic solid

Explanation:

Ionic solids are known to be hard solids. They do not conduct electricity in the solid state, however the solution of the solid or it's melt conducts electricity.

Ionic solids have a very high melting point due to strong ion-ion interaction. Hence the high melting point of this solid.

A student dissolves 3.9g of aniline (C6H5NH2) in 200.mL of a solvent with a density of 1.05 g/mL . The student notices that the

Tresset [83]

Answer:

a. Molarity= $M =2.1x10^{-1}M$

b. Molality= $m=2.0x10^{-1}m$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, given the information about the aniline, whose molar mass is 93g/mol, one could assume the volume of the solution is just 200 mL (0.200 L) as no volume change is observed when mixing, therefore, the molarity results:

$M=\frac{n_{solute}}{V_{solution}} =\frac{3.9g*\frac{1mol}{93g} }{0.2L} =2.1x10^{-1}M$

Moreover, the molality:

$m=\frac{n_{solute}}{m_{solvent}} =\frac{3.9g*\frac{1mol}{93g} }{0.2L*\frac{1.05kg}{1L} } =2.0x10^{-1}m$

Best regards.
