Chemistry
1 answer:
KonstantinChe [14]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

C. Corrosive waste

Explanation:

Hydrochloric acid is formed when hydrogen chloride gas is dissolved in water. The gas is toxic when inhaled and dissolves very readily in water to form the acid.

Hydrochloric acid is a strong acid as it ionizes completely in aqueous solutions to produce chloride ions and hydronium ions.

The concentrated acid is very corrosive in that it dissolves many other substances. Therefore, great care must be taken when handling the concentrated form of the acid.

It poses an environmental hazard due to its corrosive nature. Also, in industries and science laboratories, concentrated hydrochloric acid can corrode metal pipes and should not be drained into pipes without first being diluted.

However, the acid is very important in many industrial as well as laboratory procedures.

Which of the following apply to diffusion. Select all that apply. Solids can diffuse in liquids. Liquids can diffuse in liquids.
e-lub [12.9K]

Correct answers are:

  • Solids can diffuse in liquids. Think of a sugar cube sitting at the bottom of a cup of tea.
  • Liquids can diffuse in liquids. Think of a drop of food colouring in water
  • It is the process of intermingling atoms from one substance into another.

The other answers are <em>incorrect</em> because:

  • Gas molecules are far apart and diffuse rapidly.  
  • A solid can diffuse into another solid. Pure lead can diffuse into gold, and pure gold can diffuse into lead.

How many grams of oxygen gas must react to give 2.10g of ZnO?
Advocard [28]
The chemical reaction is written as:

2Zn + O2 = 2ZnO

We are given the amount of the product to be produced from the reaction. We use this value and the relation of the substances in the reaction to calculate what is asked. We do as follows:

2.10 g ZnO ( 1 mol / 81.408 g ) ( 1  mol O2 / 2 mol ZnO ) ( 32 g / 1 mol ) = 0.414 g O2 is needed
