Answer:
B. The ability to do work

Explanation:
Scientists define energy as the ability to do work. There is potential energy (where an object at rest has the capacity to have motion) and kinetic energy (where an object is in motion).

I hope this helps!!

The sodium atom loses an electron to form a sodium ion (Na+). Which statement is correct with respect to its atomic radius?

mixer [17]

Its atomic radius increases because there is less electron shielding after the sodium loses one e-. Sodium is a nonmetal which means it forms an anion. Anions always increase from their original atomic radius

200.0 mL OF A 5.10 M solution are diluted to 500.0 mL. What is the concentration of the resulting solution? *

erastova [34]

Answer:

Concentration of the resulting solution = 2.04 M

Explanation:

Data:

M1 = 5.10 M

V1 = 200.0 mL

V2 = 500.0 mL

M2 = ?

By modifying the volume of solution, keeping the amount of solute constant, the concentration changes. To perform the calculations, the equation will be:

$M1*V1=M2*V2$

Where M1 is the initial concentration of the solution, M2 the final concentration and V is the value of the volumes of the initial and final solution.

Clearing the value of M2 from the equation and replacing the values we have:

$M2=\frac{M1*V1}{V2} =\frac{5.10M*200mL}{500mL} =2.04M$

How many atoms are in 2 moles of phosphorus

Goryan [66]

Answer 2: 1 mole = 6.03 x 1023 particles. One mole of any element has a mass in grams that is equal to its atomic number, and has exactly 6.02 x 1023 atoms - however because the atoms of each element have different sizes and weights, then the volume that each one occupies is different.

If 16.29 grams of Na2SO4 is mixed with 3.697 grams of C and allowed to react according to the balanced equation: Na2SO4(aq) + 4

abruzzese [7]

Answer: The limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction is carbon metal.

Explanation:

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in large amount in a chemical reaction.

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is present in small amount in a chemical reaction. Formation of product depends on the limiting reagent.

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For sodium sulfate:

Given mass of sodium sulfate = 16.29 g

Molar mass of sodium sulfate = 142 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of sodium sulfate}=\frac{16.29g}{142g/mol}=0.115mol$

For carbon:

Given mass of carbon = 3.697 g

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of carbon}=\frac{3.697g}{12g/mol}=0.31mol$

For the given chemical reaction:

$Na_2SO_4(aq.)+4C(s)\rightarrow Na_2S(s)+4CO(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of carbon reacts with 1 mole of sodium sulfate

So, 0.31 moles of carbon will react with = $\frac{1}{4}\times 0.31=0.0775mol$ of sodium sulfate

As, given amount of sodium sulfate is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, carbon metal is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Hence, the limiting reagent in the given chemical reaction is carbon metal.

If the [H3O+] of a solution is 1x 10-8 mol/L the [OH-] is

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

(H30+)= 1x10^-6 M

Explanation:

Both pH and pOH have a relationship to belonging to the same aqueous solution: the expression of the Kwater (ionic product of the water Kw) is used:

1x 10-8 mol/L equals to1x10-8 M

(H3O+) x (OH-) = 1x10^-14

(H30+)x 1x 10^-8 =1x10^-14

(H30+)= 1x10^-14/1x 10^-8

(H30+)= 1x10^-6 M
