Answer:

3 moles of Oxygen

Explanation:

The chemical formula of a compound is a representation which shows all the elements therein and the mole relationship between them expressed as subscripts.

NaHCO₃ implies:

1 mole of baking soda contains:

1 mole of Na

1 mole of Hydrogen

1 mole of carbon

And 3 moles of Oxygen

Convection: the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.

Why does lithium form only lithium oxide and not peroxide or superoxide

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Lithium does form a peroxide as well as an oxide on burning in air and I suspect the low temperature reaction with air forms a significant amount of peroxide.

For the reaction below, complete the rate expression that relates the change in concentration with respect to time to the rate o

Ann [662]

Answer: Rate in terms of disappearance of $NO$ = $-\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$

Rate in terms of disappearance of $Cl_2$ = $-\frac{1d[Cl_2]}{1dt}$

Rate in terms of appearance of $NOCl$ = $\frac{1d[NOCl]}{2dt}$

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$2NO+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NOCl$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate in terms of disappearance of = $-\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$

Rate in terms of disappearance of = $-\frac{1d[Cl_2]}{1dt}$

Rate in terms of appearance of $NOCl$ = $+\frac{1d[NOCl]}{2dt}$
