Answer:

0.693kg of CuFeS2 is needed to produce 240 grams of Cu.

Explanation:

In 1 mole of CuFeS2 is associated 1 mole of Cu.

Molar mass of CuFeS2 = 183.5 g/mol

Molar mass of Cu = 63.5g/mol

No of moles of copper present in 240g of chalcopyrite = 240/63.5 = 3.779moles

we know

1 mole of Cu → 1 mole of CuFeS2

in 3.779 moles of Cu → 3.779 moles of CuFeS2

3.779 moles of CuFeS2 = 3.779 * 183.5 = 693.45grams

CuFeS2 in kg = 0.693kg

What pressure is requred to contain 0.023 moles of nitrogen gas in a 4.2 L container at a
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

0.13 atm

Explanation:

Using the Ideal Gas Law; PV=nRT, we can rearrange to solve for pressure.

P=nRT/V

P is pressure, n is number of moles (0.023), R is a constant (0.08206 L*atm/mol*K), T is temperature in Kelvin (293.15K) and V is volume, 4.2 L.

So, plugging in;

P=(0.023mol)(0.08206L*atm/mol*K)(293.15K)/(4.2 L)

P=0.1317 atm

P=0.13 atm; multiply by 760 to get to Torr or mmHg.

Select the isotopes from the following?<br> A) 21/10 B) 22/10 C) 23/11 D)23/12
iren [92.7K]

The isotopes of the same element in the given options are 21/10 and 22/10 (option A and B).

<h3>What is an isotope?</h3>

Isotopes are two or more forms of an element where the atoms have the same number of protons, but a different number of neutrons within their nuclei.

The above definition shows that atoms of isotopes will have the same atomic number but a different mass number.

Isotopes of the same elements have different number of neutrons and this causes the difference in mass numbers.

According to this question, 21/10 and 22/10 are isotopes of the same element because they have the same atomic number.
