Hello!
I saw this question and instantly knew I could help. I recently took a course on toxic gasses and poisons. Here's what I know.
It can be swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. It is generally released from its host compound by acids, such as the hydrochloric acid found in the stomach. The poison in the seeds is released only if the seeds are chewed.
Effects and symptoms:
Cyanide prevents the red blood cells from absorbing oxygen. It's called chemical asphyxia.
Smelling of a toxic dose of the gas can cause immediate unconsciousness, convulsions and death within one to fifteen minutes.
If swallowed a fatal dose can take up to twenty minutes or longer, esp. if swallowed on a full stomach.
If a near-lethal dose is absorbed through the skin, inhaled or swallowed the symptoms will include gasping for breath, dizziness, flushing, headache, nausea, vomiting, rapid pulse, and a drop in blood pressure causing fainting.
<span>With a lethal dose, convulsions with in four hours, except in the case of sodium nitroprusside, when death can be delayed as long as 12 hours after ingestion. </span>The victims blood may appear purple or cherry red, as in carbon monoxide poisoning, and the corpse may have pinker than normal skin.
<span>the famous bitter almond odor can be a clue and maybe noticeable at autopsy, but not everyone is capable of smelling it.
Hope this helped! :)</span>
Answer:
13.94moles of Na₂O
Explanation:
The balanced reaction expression is given as:
4Na + O₂ → 2Na₂O
Given parameters:
Number of moles of O₂ = 6.97moles
Unknown:
Number of moles of Na₂O
Solution:
To solve this problem;
1 mole of O₂ will produce 2 moles of Na₂O ;
6.97 moles of O₂ will produce 6.97 x 2 = 13.94moles of Na₂O
Their weights could be different.
Their volumes could be different.
Their densities could be different.
The volume for an ounce of lead is much different than an ounce of aluminum.
the weight of a cubic meter of balsa wood is much different (and much lighter) than a cubic meter of water. That's why the ancients used balsa for their rafts.
Answer:
C₃H₅O₂
4C₃H₅O₂ + 13O₂ → 12CO₂ + 10H₂O
Explanation:
The reaction can be expressed as:
CₓHₓOₓ + nO₂ → CO₂ + H₂O
Under the assumption that there was a total combustion, all of the carbon in the reactant was combusted into CO₂, so <u>the mass of C contained in the C.H.O. compound is the same mass of C contained in 1.039 g of CO₂</u>:

All of the hydrogens atoms in the compound ended up becoming H₂O, so <u>the mass of H contained in the C.H.O. compound is the same mass of H contained in 0.6369 g of H₂O</u>:

Because the compound is composed only by C, H and O, <u>the mass of O in the compound can be calculated by substraction</u>:
0.5438 g Compound - 0.2834 g C - 0.0354 g H = 0.2250 g O
In order to determine the empirical formula, we calculate the moles of each component:
- mol C = 0.2834 g C ÷ 12 g/mol = 0.0236 mol C
- mol H = 0.0354 g H ÷ 1 g/mol = 0.0354 mol H
- mol O = 0.2250 g O ÷ 16 g/mol = 0.0141 mol O
Then we divide those values by the lowest one:
0.0236 mol C ÷ 0.0141 = 1.67
0.0354 mol H ÷ 0.0141 = 2.51
0.0141 mol O ÷ 0.0141 = 1
If we multiply those values by 2, we're left with the empirical formula C₃H₅O₂.
4C₃H₅O₂ + 13O₂ → 12CO₂ + 10H₂O
Answer:
(A) endothermic
(A) Yes, absorbed
Explanation:
Let's consider the following thermochemical equation.
2 Fe₂O₃(s) ⇒ 4 FeO(s) + O₂(g) ΔH = 560 kJ
Since ΔH > 0, the reaction is endothermic.
We can establish the following relations:
- 560 kJ are absorbed when 2 moles of Fe₂O₃ react.
- The molar mass of Fe₂O₃ is 160 g/mol.
Suppose 66.6 g of Fe₂O₃ react. The heat absorbed is:
