Answer:
The unknown element is Carbon.
(a) X is Carbon, its oxide is of acidic nature
(b) C+ O2 → CO2
Explanation:
We are given an unknown element that reacts with oxygen.
X + O2 → XO2
It is given that the oxide XO2 turns blue litmus red which is shown by acids, so XO2 is an acidic oxide. Also X will be a Non metal because Non metallic oxide is Acidic in nature.
The Oxide XO2 is dissolving is water. The oxide upon reacting with water will give an Acid.
XO2 type of oxide is found in the 14th group of the periodic table generally
So we have options like C, Si and Ge as these only have the Acidic oxide.
But when it comes to reactivity with water Only Carbon satisfies the need so the unknown element X is C.
CO2 + H2O → H2CO3 which is an acid.
(a) Element X is Carbon (C), The nature of the compound formed is Acidic.
(b) The reaction given will be as follows
C+ O2 → CO2
Therefore the unknown element is Carbon.
Answer:
The correct answer is 4.58 grams.
Explanation:
Based on the Faraday's law of electrolysis, at the time of electrolysis, the amount of deposited substance is directly equivalent to the concentration of the flow of charge all through the solution. If current, I, is passed for time, t, seconds and w is the concentration of the substance deposited, then w is directly proportional to I*t or w = zIt (Here z refers to the electrochemical equivalent or the amount deposited when 1 C is passed).
For the reaction, n * 96500 C = molar mass
1C = molar mass/n*96500 = Equivalent wt / 96500
w = Equivalent wt / 96500 * I * t
In the given reaction,
Pb + PbO2 + 2HSO4- + 2H+ → 2PbSO4 + 2H2O, n = 2, the current or I drawn is 350 A, for time, t 12.2 seconds.
Now putting the values in the equation we get,
w = 207.19 / 2 * 96500 * 350 * 12.2 ( The molecular weight of Pb is 207.19 and the equivalent weight of Pb is 207.19 / 2)
w = 4.58 gm.
Usually the presence of a dominant version of allele masks the expression of a recessive allele. A recessive allele is only phenotype is only expressed when 2 recessive alleles combine.
The answer should be law of conservation of energy
