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

adell [148]3 years ago

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.

. For the reaction 2HNO3 + Mg(OH), → Mg(NO3)2 + 2H20, how many grams of magnesium nitrate are produced from 8.00 mol of nitric a
GREYUIT [131]

Mass of Magnesium nitrate produced : 593.2 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The reaction equation is the chemical formula of reagents and product substances

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

Reaction

2HNO₃ + Mg(OH)₂ → Mg(NO₃)₂ + 2H₂0

mol HNO₃ = 8

From the equation, mol ratio of HNO₃ : Mg(NO₃)₂ = 2 : 1, so mol Mg(NO₃)₂ :

\tt \dfrac{1}{2}\times 8=4~moles

Mass Mg(NO₃)₂(MW=148,3 g/mol) :

\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=4\times 148,3 g/mol\\\\mass=593.2~g

34 atoms of carbon (C) react with 22 molecules of hydrogen gas (H2). How many molecules of methane (CH4) will be formed, and wha
kolbaska11 [484]

Answer:

11 molecules of CH4.

23 atoms of C is the leftover.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the formation of methane:

C+2H_2\rightarrow CH_4

We can see there is an excess of carbon based on their stoichiometry, because the needed amount of hydrogen gas molecules would be:

molecules _{H_2}=34atomC*\frac{2molec\ H_2}{1atomC} =68molec\ H_2

Thus, the formed molecules of methane are computed below:

molec\ CH_4=22molec\ H_2 *\frac{1molec\ CH_4}{2molmolec\ H_2} \\\\molec\ CH_4=11molec\ CH_4

In such a way, the leftover of carbon atoms are:

atoms \ C^{left over}=34-22molec\ H_2*\frac{1atoms C}{2molec\ H_2} \\\\atoms \ C^{left over}=23 atoms C

Best regards!

Sulfuric acid is essential to dozens of important industries from steelmaking to plastics and pharmaceuticals. More sulfuric aci
Pavlova-9 [17]

Given:

K = 0.71 = Kp

The reaction of sulphur with oxygen is

                            S(s)   + O2(g)  ---> SO2(g)

initial Pressure                   6.90         0

Change                                -x            +x

Equilibrium                     6.90-x          x

Kp = pSO2 / pO2 = 0.71 = x / (6.90-x)

4.899 - 0.71x  = x

4.899 = 1.71x

x = 2.86 atm = pressure of SO2 formed

temperature = 950 C = 950 + 273.15 K = 1223.15 K

Volume = 50 L

Let us calculate moles of SO2 formed using ideal gas equation as

PV = nRT

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L atm / mol K

putting other values

n = PV / RT = 2.86 X 50 / 1223.15 X 0.0821 = 1.42 moles

Moles of Sulphur required = 1.42 moles

Mass of sulphur required or consumed = moles X atomic mass of sulphur

mass of S = 1.42 X 32 = 45.57 grams or 0.04557 Kg  of sulphur
