mars1129 [50]

Answer:

A. 650 g

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

2 HgO(s) --> 2Hg(s)  + O2(l)

From the reaction;

2 mol of HgO produces 1 mol of O2

x mol of HgO would produce 1.50 mol of O2

2 = 1

x = 1.5

Solving for x;

x = 1.5 * 2 / 1 = 3 mol

Converting to mass;

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Mass = 3 mol  * 216.59 g/mol

Mass = 649.77 g ≈ 650. g

Correct option is ;

A. 650 g

Which of the following best describes the electron cloud model? A. It shows that electrons usually carry a negative charge. B. I
Bess [88]
<span>Which of the following best describes the electron cloud model?

THE ELECTRON CLOUD MODEL WAS DEVELOPED BY SCHRODINGER. IT STATES THE THE ELECTRONS ARE NOT PARTICLES MOVING AROUND THE NUCLEUS IN FIXED ORBITY BUT THEIR LOCATIONS CAN ONLY BE STATED BY A PROBABILITY DENSITY IN FORM OF CLOUD AROUND THE NUCLEUS. 

THEN THE MAIN POINT OF THE CLOUD MODEL IS THAT THE ELECTRONS ARE NOT IN FIXED ORBITS AROUND THE NUCLEUS BUT THEIR LOCATION IS STATED BY A PROBABILITY FUNCTION THAT IS LIKE A CLOUD REGION.

A. It shows that electrons usually carry a negative charge.

FALSE: ELECTRONS ALWAYS CARRY NEGATIVE CHARGE


B. It shows that electrons remain in high-energy subshells.

FALSE: ELECTRONS OCCUPY THE LOWEST-ENERGY SUBSHELLS AVAILABLE UNLESS THEY ARE EXCITED (ABSORB ENERGY)


C. It shows that electrons move quickly in circular orbits.

FALSE: ELECTRONS DO NOT MOVE IN CIRCULAR ORBITS.

D. It shows that the electrons within an atom do not have sharp boundaries.

TRUE. THE IDEA OF A CLOUD IS A DIFFUSSE REGION WHERE IS A 90% OF PROBABILITIES TO FIND THE ELECTRON, AND THEY DO NOT HAVE SHARP BOUNDARIES.

A gas has a volume of 5.00 L at 20.0oC. If the gas is compressed to 4.0 L, what is the new temperature of the gas in Kelvin?
Tatiana [17]

Answer: 234.4K

Explanation:

Given that,

Original volume of gas (V1) = 5.00 L

Original temperature of gas (T1) = 20.0°C

[Convert 20.0°C to Kelvin by adding 273

20.0°C + 273 = 293K]

New volume of gas (V2) = 4.0L

New temperature of gas (T2) = ?

Since volume and temperature are given while pressure is held constant, apply the formula for Charle's law

V1/T1 = V2/T2

5.00L/293K = 4.0L/T2

To get the value of T2, cross multiply

5.00L x T2 = 293K x 4.0L

5.00L•T2 = 1172L•K

Divide both sides by 5.00L

5.00L•T2/5.00L = 1172L•K/5.00L

T2 = 234.4K

Thus, the new temperature of the gas is 234.4 Kelvin

A student made the following diagram to represent cellular respiration.
Ratling [72]
The correct answer is A, Water is not used up during this process. This is because when cellular respiration occurs oxygen and glucose combine. When this takes place water is left behind when carbon is separated from glucose. Because water is being left behind it is not being used up in this process.
