Answer: The lowest possible whole number coefficient for water is 1.

Explanation:

A double displacement reaction is one in which exchange of ions take place. The salts which are soluble in water are designated by symbol (aq) and those which are insoluble  water and remain in solid form are represented by (s) after their chemical formulas.

The balanced chemical reation for aqueous solutions of lithium hydroxide and acetic acid react to yield lithium acetate and water is:


LiOH(aq)+CH_3COOH(aq)\rightarrow CH_3COOLi(aq)+H_2O(l)

Thus the lowest possible whole number coefficient for water is 1.

A certain sample of coal contains 1.60 percent sulfur by mass. when the coal is burned, the sulfur is converted to sulfur dioxid
alina1380 [7]
<span>1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide The reaction looks like SO2 + CaO => CaSO3 First, determine the mass of sulfur in the coal 5.00 x 10^6 * 1.60 x 10^-2 = 8.00 x 10^4 Now lookup the atomic weights of Sulfur, Calcium, and Oxygen. Sulfur = 32.065 Calcium = 40.078 Oxygen = 15.999 Calculate the molar mass of CaO CaO = 40.078 + 15.999 = 56.077 Since 1 atom of sulfur makes 1 atom of sulfur dioxide, we don't need the molar mass of sulfur dioxide. We merely need the number of moles of sulfur we're burning. divide the mass of sulfur by the atomic weight. 8.00 x 10^4 / 32.065 = 2.49 x 10^3 moles Since 1 molecule of sulfur dioxide is reacted with 1 molecule of calcium oxide, just multiply the number of moles needed by the molar mass 2.49 x 10^3 * 56.077 = 1.40 x 10^5 So you need to use 1.40 x 10^5 kilograms of calcium oxide per day to treat the sulfur dioxide generated by burning 5.00 x 10^6 kilograms of coal with 1.60% sulfur.</span>

Which of these figures probably shows a sugar solution containing a small amount of sugar dissolved in water
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

The correct answer is Sugar has a greater solubility than sand.

Sugar will easily dissolve in water because it has a lower density than sand, therefore it has a greater solubility.
