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

Chemistry
1 answer:
NARA [144]2 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

In the decomposition reaction, 1 mole of water (mw = 18.015 g/mol) was produced for every mole of cuo (mw = 79.545 g/mol) produc
natita [175]

Reactives -> Products

CuO and water are products.

I found this reaction which has CuO and water as products: decomposition of Cu(OH)2.

Cu(OH)2 -> CuO + H2O

Stoichiometry calculus involve the mole proportions you can see in the reaction: When 1 mole of Cu(OH)2 reacts, 1 mole of CuO and 1 mole of H2O are formed.

Considering the molar masses:

Cu(OH)2 = 83.56 g/mol

CuO = 79.545 g/mol

H2O = 18.015 g/mol

Then: When 83.56 g of Cu(OH)2 react, 79.545 g of CuO and 18.015 g H2O are formed.

You should use that numbers in the rule of three:

79.545 g CuO __________18.015 g water

3.327 g CuO__________ x =3.327*18.015 /79.545 g water 

x= 0.7535 g water

Given the law of conservation of energy, what happens when a 200°C iron bar is placed in thermal contact with a 30°C block of wo
kozerog [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is A Energy leaves the iron bar and enters the wood until the temperature are equal.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of energy or the first law thermodynamics energy neither be created nor destroyed, energy is transferred from one form to another form.

        Here iron bar is placed in wood block energy is transferred from iron bar to wood until the temperatures are equal.

When adjusted for any changes in ΔHΔH and ΔSΔS with temperature, the standard free energy change ΔG∘TΔGT∘Delta G_{T}^{\circ} at
STALIN [3.7K]

The equilibrium constant is 0.0022.

Explanation:

The values given in the problem is

ΔG° = 1.22 ×10⁵ J/mol

T = 2400 K.

R = 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹

The Gibbs free energy should be minimum for a spontaneous reaction and equilibrium state of any reaction is spontaneous reaction. So on simplification, the thermodynamic properties of the equilibrium constant can be obtained as related to Gibbs free energy change at constant temperature.

The relation between Gibbs free energy change with equilibrium constant is ΔG° = -RT ln K

So, here K is the equilibrium constant. Now, substitute all the given values in the corresponding parameters of the above equation.

We get,

1.22 * 10^{5} = - 8.314* 2400 * ln K

\\ 1.22 * 10^{5} = -19953.6 * ln K

ln K = \frac{-1.22*10^{5} }{19953.6} =-6.114\\\\k =e^{-6.114}=0.0022

So, the equilibrium constant is 0.0022.
