Elements cannot be broken down in this fashion.
Compounds, homogeneous mixtures, and heterogeneous mixtures can be broken down or separated with chemical processes, or in some cases, just by manual separation.
In order to answer this, we mus know the data for the heat of combustion of propane. This is an empirical data that you can search online. The heat of combustion is -2220 kJ/mol. The molar mass of propane of 44.1 g/mol. The solution is as follows:
ΔH = -2220 kJ/mol (1 mol/44.1 g)(1000g/1kg)(20 kg)
<em>ΔH = -1006802.721 kJ or -1 GJ</em>
Answer:
Sulfur has the same amount, like all the other elements in group 16, has six valence electrons.
Explanation:
The age of the fossil given the present amount of Carbon-14 is given in the equation,
A(t) = A(o)(0.5)^t/h
where A(t) is the current amount, A(o) is the initial amount, t is time and h is the half-life. Substituting the known values to the equation,
A(t) / A(o) = 0.125 = (0.5)^(t/5730)
The value of t from the equation is 17190.
Thus, the age of the fossil is mostly likely to be 17190 years old.
Answer is: 4) The same subscripts are on each side of the equation.
For example, balanced chemical reaction:
2Mg + O₂ → 2MgO.
1) The same number of atoms is on each side of the equation: two magnesium atoms and two oxgen atoms.
2) The formulas for all substances are correct: in magnesium oxide (MgO), magnesium has oxidation number +2 and oxygen -2, so formula is good, because compound must be neutral.
3) The same mass is represented on each side of the equation: because there is same number of atoms, the mass is the same.
4) The same subscripts are on each side of the equation: oxygen does not have same subscripts.
