How many grams of mercury can be produced if 18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes?

Chemistry
1 answer:
NARA [144]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury

Explanation:

Mercury oxide has molar mass of 216.6 g/ mol. It gas a molecular formula of HgO.

The decomposition of mercury oxide is given by the chemical equation below:

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O₂

2 moles of HgO decomposes to produce 1 mole of Hg

2 moles of HgO has a mass of 433.2 g

433.2 g of HgO produces 216.6 g of Hg

18.0 of HgO will produce 18 × 216.6/433.2 g of Hg = 9.0 g of Hg

Therefore, 18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury

How many uL are present in 250 mL of H20? (1 uL = 10^-6 Liters)​
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

250000 μL

Explanation:

If         1 L = 1000 mL

Then  X L = 250 mL

X = (1 × 250) / 1000 = 0.25 L

Now we can calculate the number of microliters (μL) in 0.25 L:

if        1 μL = 10⁻⁶ L

then   X μL = 0.25 L

X = (1 × 0.25) / 10⁻⁶  =250000 μL

5. Can you determine the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an atom by looking at the element's average atomic mass and the at
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

No you can't

Explanation:

The atomic number is the amount of protons in element's nucleus, that's one reason why. The second reason is that the atomic mass is protons and neutrons combined, their estimated value, which doesn't show how much neutrons are in an element. It does show combined, but not specifically neutrons

Which part of the mantle is still solid but flows like a heavy liquid
topjm [15]

The Earth is composed of four different layers. Many geologists believe that as the Earth cooled the heavier, denser materials sank to the center and the lighter materials rose to the top. Because of this, the crust is made of the lightest materials (rock- basalts and granites) and the core consists of heavy metals (nickel and iron).

 

<span>The crust is the layer that you live on, and it is the most widely studied and understood. The mantle is much hotter and has the ability to flow. The Outer and Inner Cores are hotter still with pressures so great that you would be squeezed into a ball smaller than a marble if you were able to go to the center of the Earth!!!!!!</span>

Describe what happens as ice changes to water.
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The energy of the particles increase and the molecules move more quickly.

Explanation:

The molecules are moving from a solid (barely moves, molecules close together) to a liquid (molecules slide past each other and take any shape), so molecules are moving more and have more energy
