Answer:

Coefficient: number balancing sulfuric acid in a chemical reaction.

Subscripts: number of atoms of each element forming the compound.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since sulfuric acid is a molecule containing hydrogen, sulfur and oxygen in the following way:

- Two hydrogen atoms.

- One sulfur atom.

- Four oxygen atoms.

We can notice the 2 at H represents those two hydrogen atoms, the subscriptless S represent that 1 sulfur atom and the 4 at O represents those four oxygen atoms.

Moreover, since the molecules is given as 7 H2SO4 ; from stoichiometry, we infer that every number preceding the molecule stands for a coefficient which is used to balance a undergoing chemical reaction reaction.

Best regards!

How much pressure does an elephant with a mass of 2200 Kg and a total footprint area of 4500 cm2 exert on the ground?

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

47911.1 pa

Explanation:

The SI base unit of pressure is pascal, which is N/m^2.

2200 kg is 2200*9.8=21560 N, and 4500 cm^2=4500/10000=0.45 m^2.

So the total pressure exerted on the ground (!!) is 21560/0.45= 47911.1 Pa.

In the balanced reaction below, what is the mole ratio comparing iron (Fe) and oxygen gas (O2)?

zepelin [54]

The given balanced reaction is,

$4Fe(s) + 3O_{2}(g) --->2Fe_{2}O_{3} (s)$

The stoichiometric coefficients of each element or compound represents the number of moles of that element or compound required for the complete reaction to take place.

The mole ratios of different products and reactants will be:

$\frac{Fe}{O_{2}} = \frac{4 mol Fe}{3 mol O_{2}}$
