Answer:

32.7 g of Zn

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

Zn + 2HCl —> ZnCl₂ + H₂

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Zn reacted to produce 1 mole of H₂

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Zn required to produce 0.5 mole of H₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Zn reacted to produce 1 mole of H₂.

Therefore, 0.5 mole of Zn will also react to produce to 0.5 mole of H₂.

Thus, 0.5 mole of Zn is required.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of 0.5 mole of Zn. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of Zn = 0.5 mole

Molar mass of Zn = 65.4 g/mol

Mass of Zn =?

Mass = mole × molar mass

Mass of Zn = 0.5 × 65.4

Mass of Zn = 32.7 g

Thus, 32.7 g of Zn is required to produce 0.5 mole of H₂.

How many protons, neutrons, and electrons does S^2- have

adell [148]

Answer:

The protons and electrons in each element are equal. The sulfur has 16 electrons and 16 protons. But the ionic atom's electron quantity changes depending on how many it has gained. 'S2-' has gained 2 electrons, which means it has now 18 electrons and 16 protons. 16 neutrons

Reynolds number E. What is the mean velocity u. (ft/s) and the Reynolds number Re = pu., D/ for 35 gpm (gallons per minute) of w

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

The mean velocity is 13 ft/s.

The Reynolds number is 88,583 and it is dimensionless.

Explanation:

We have water flowing in a pipe of 1.05 in diameter.

The density is ρ=62.3 lb/ft and the viscosity is 1.2 cP.

The mean velocity can be calculated as

$u=\frac{Q}{A}=\frac{Q}{\pi*D^2/4}=\frac{35gpm }{3.14*(1.05in)^2/4}\\\\ u=\frac{35}{0.865}*\frac{gal}{min}\frac{1}{in^2}*\frac{231in^3}{1gal}*\frac{1}{60s} \\\\ u=156\,in/s=13\,ft/s$

The Reynolds number now can be calculated for this flow as

$Re=\frac{\rho*u*D}{\mu}$

being ρ: density, u: mean velocity of the fluid, D: internal diameter of the pipe and μ the dynamic viscosity.

To simplify the calculation, we can first make all the variables have coherent units.

Viscosity

$\mu=1.2cP=\frac{1.2}{100}\frac{g}{cm*s}*\frac{1lb}{453.6g}*\frac{30.48cm}{1ft}= 0.0008\frac{lb}{ft*s}$

Diameter

$D=1.05in*(\frac{1ft}{12in} )=0.0875ft$

Then the Reynolds number is

$Re=\frac{\rho*u*D}{\mu}\\\\Re=62.3\frac{lb}{ft^3}*13\frac{ft}{s} *0.0875ft*\frac{1}{0.0008}*\frac{ft*s}{lb}\\\\Re=88,583$
