Answer:

4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2

Explanation:

It's a decomposition, but not a simple one.

KNO3 ==> K2O + N2 + O2   I don't usually do this, but I think the easiest way to proceed is to  balancing the K and N together. That will require a 2 in front of KNO3

4KNO3 ==> 2K2O + 2N2 + 5O2

Now you have (3*4) = 12 oxygens. Two are on the K2O. So the other 10 must be on the O2

That should do it.

Answer: By using electrolysis.

Explanation:

Electrolysis is a chemical change produced by sending an electric current through a compound. Electrolysis works because the hydrogen and oxygen ions are held together by an electric attraction.

A sample of chlorine gas is at 300K and 1.00 atm. At what temperature and pressure would it behave more like an ideal gas?
Fofino [41]

In lower temperatures, the molecules of real gases tend to slow down enough that the attractive forces between the individual molecules are no longer negligible. In high pressures, the molecules are forced closer together- as opposed to the further distances between molecules at lower pressures. This closer the distance between the gas molecules, the more likely that attractive forces will develop between the molecules. As such, the ideal gas behavior occurs best in high temperatures and low pressures. (Answer to your question: C)  This is because  the attraction between molecules are assumed to be negligible in ideal gases, no interactions and transfer of energy between the molecules occur, and as temperature decreases and pressure increases, the more the gas will act like an real gas.

When liquid water is heated to 100° c, it boils and becomes water vapor. when the vapor is cooled below 100° c, it turns back in

Hello!
I believe it is called Condensation

Condensation is when the water vapor (gas) in the air turns into a liquid. (Like the fog on a mirror after you take a hot shower)

A) 30.22 g NaCl x 1 mol NaC l =      58.4430 Molar mass (g) NaCl=0.5171 mol NaCl
jekas [21]
The third question requires you to solve for the weight of sodium (Na) and weight of Chloride (Cl) from the calculated moles of each element Na, and Cl.

So, you need to multiply the calculated moles of Na with its molar mass (23 g/ mol) to get the answer for Na. And multiply the calculated moles of Cl with its molar mass (35.45 g/mol) to get the answer for Cl.
