What type of rock would be formed in this plant-rich swamp?

We are asked to identify what type of rock would be formed in a plant-rich swamp. We all know that plant dies and the remain leaves in the soil called peat. Temperature, pressure and heat causes the remains to submerged under the soil bed layer and converts it into a waxy substance called kerogen. Kerogen then mixes with the rock under the soil bed layer to create what is called an oil shale. Oil shale is somehow similar to a coal. Both creates an energy when ignited. Therefore the correct answer to the question being asked is COAL or Oil Shale.

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

9 moles of NaNO3.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaCl —> 3NaNO3 + AlCl3

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Al(NO3)3 and NaCl that reacted and the number of mole of NaNO3 produced from the balanced equation.

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Al(NO3)3 reacted with 3 moles of NaCl to produce 3 moles of NaNO3.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant.

The limiting reactant can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Al(NO3)3 reacted with 3 moles of NaCl.

Therefore, 4 moles of Al(NO3)3 will react with = (4 x 3)/1 = 12 moles of NaCl.

From the calculations made above, we can see that it will take a higher amount i.e 12 moles than what was given i.e 9 moles of NaCl to react completely with 4 moles of Al(NO3)3.

Therefore, NaCl is the limiting reactant and Al(NO3)3 is the excess reactant.

Finally, we shall determine the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced from the reaction.

In this case, the limiting reactant will be used as it will produce the maximum amount of NaNO3 since all of it is consumed by the reaction.

The limit reactant is NaCl and the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaCl reacted to produce 3 moles of NaNO3.

Therefore, 9 moles of NaCl will also react to produce 9 moles of NaNO3.

From the calculations made above, the maximum amount of NaNO3 produced is 9 moles

Explain why beryllium is produced when potassium is heated with beryllium
Vladimir [108]

Explanation:

The more reactive element replaces less reactive element during chemical reaction.

Since, potassium is more reactive than beryllium. When potassium reacts with beryllium choride, it replaces beryllium and forms potassium chloride and produces beryllium.

You determine that it takes 26.0 mL of base to neutralize a sample of your unknown acid solution. The pH of the solution when ex
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

a. 1.78x10⁻³ = Ka

2.75 = pKa

b. It is irrelevant.

Explanation:

a. The neutralization of a weak acid, HA, with a base can help to find Ka of the acid.

Equilibrium is:

HA ⇄ H⁺ + A⁻

And Ka is defined as:

Ka = [H⁺] [A⁻] / [HA]

The HA reacts with the base, XOH, thus:

HA + XOH → H₂O + A⁻ + X⁺

As you require 26.0mL of the base to consume all HA, if you add 13mL, the moles of HA will be the half of the initial moles and, the other half, will be A⁻

That means:

[HA] = [A⁻]

It is possible to obtain pKa from H-H equation (Equation used to find pH of a buffer), thus:

pH = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

Replacing:

2.75 = pKa + log₁₀ [A⁻] / [HA]

As [HA] = [A⁻]

2.75 = pKa + log₁₀ 1

<h3>2.75 = pKa</h3>

Knowing pKa = -log Ka

2.75 = -log Ka

10^-2.75 = Ka

<h3>1.78x10⁻³ = Ka</h3>

b. As you can see, the initial concentration of the acid was not necessary. The only thing you must know is that in the half of the titration, [HA] = [A⁻]. Thus, the initial concentration of the acid doesn't affect the initial calculation.

PLEASE HELP!!
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

a. 211.7

Explanation:

Iron Pyrite reacts with Oxygen to produce Iron (II) Oxide and Sulphur (IV) Oxide.

The equation is as follows:

4FeS₂₍s₎ + 11O₂₍g₎ → 2Fe₂O₃₍s₎ + 8SO₂₍g₎

From the equation, 4 moles of FeS₂ produce 8 moles of SO₂.

Therefore the reaction ratio is 4:8 or 1:2

198.20 grams of FeS₂ into moles is calculated as follows:

Moles= Mass/RMM

RMM of FeS₂ is 119.9750g/mol.

Number of moles = 198.20/119.9750g/mol

=1.652 moles of FeS₂

The reaction ratio of FeS₂ to SO₂ produced is 1:2

Thus SO₂ produced = 1.652 moles×2/1=3.304 moles

The mass of SO₂ produced =Moles ×RMM

=3.304 moles ×64.0638 g/mol

=211.667 grams

=211.7g
