Answer:

Mass = 157.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of CO needed  = ?

Mass of Fe formed = 209.7 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

3CO + F₂O₃   →       2Fe + 3CO₂

Number of moles of Fe:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 209.7 g/ 55.85 g/mol

Number of moles = 3.75 mol

Now we will compare the moles of iron and carbon monoxide.

                               Fe            :              CO

                                 2            :              3

                                3.75         ;             3/2×3.75 = 5.625 mol

Mass of CO:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 5.625 mol × 28 g/mol

Mass = 157.5 g

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

Modern whales evolved by natural selection over long time periods through descent from common ancestors

Explanation:

According to the evolutionary theory proposed by Darwin, natural selection is a biological process by which organisms adapt and change in response to their environment. In this case, ancient whales that were better suited to environmental conditions survived and produced more offspring than non-adapted individuals. In consequence, predominant adaptive traits observed in modern whales were favored by natural selection in the past, while unsuccessful phenotypes progressively disappeared.

Give the number of lone pairs around the central atom and the molecular geometry of XeF4.A)0 lone pairs, tetrahedralB)1 lone pai
vovangra [49]

Answer: 2 lone pairs, square planar

Explanation:

Using the VSEPR ( Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion)Theory

To calculate the number of lone pairs electron can be done using the formula;

Number of electrons = ½ (V+N-C+A)

V mean valency of the central atom

N means number of monovalent bonding atoms

C means charge on cation

A means charges on anion

Therefore, to calculate the number of lone pair electron C=A=0;

Number of electrons = ½ (8+4) = 12/2 = 6

Number of bonding pair = 4

Number of lone pairs of electron = 6-4 = 2

The hybridrization of the compound is sp3d2 because the number of electrons around the central atom is 6.

The geometry of the compound is square planar and this is because of the repulsion between the bonding pair of electrons and lone pair of electrons which causes the lone pair of electrons to lie in a perpendicular plane in order to acquire stability.

What is wrong with this chemical<br> equation - N2 + O2 → 2N20,
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer and Explanation:

I think the thing that is wrong with this chemical equation is that there is 0 by the 2 instead of the letter O.

Other than that, everything would be balanced.

Nuclear power plants have the greatest environmental impact during __________. A) operation B) mining C) waste disposal D) const
lyudmila [28]
The correct option is C.
The issue of disposal of waste of nuclear power plants has been a controversial issue for long because of the hazardous effects which these wastes have on human health and the environment. Most of the waste are usually long lived radioactive wastes which can remain active for a very long time and which have detrimental effect on both the environment and the human health.<span />
