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

Acetylene (C2H2), an important fuel in welding, is produced in the laboratory when calcium carbide (CaC2) reacts with water: CaC
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

There are 1.287 grams of acetylene collected

Explanation:

Total gas pressure = 909 mmHg

Vapor pressure of water = 20.7 mmHg

Pressure of acetylene = 909 mmHg - 20.7 mmHg = 888.3 mmHg

1mmHg = 1 torr

22 ° C + 273.15 = 295.15 Kelvin

Ideal gas law ⇒ pV = nRT

⇒ with p = pressure of the gas in atm

⇒ with V = volume of the gas in L

⇒ with n = amount of substance of gas ( in moles)

⇒ with R = gas constant, equal to the product of the Boltzmann constant and the Avogadro constant (62.36 L * Torr *K^−1 *mol^−1)

⇒ with T = absolute temperature of the gas (in Kelvin)

888.3 torr * 1.024 L = n * 62.36 L * Torr *K^−1 *mol^−1 * 295.15 K

n = 0.04942 moles of C2H2

Mass of C2H2 = 0.04942 moles x 26.04 g/mole = 1.287 g

There are 1.287 grams of acetylene collected

You are provided with a stock solution with a concentration of 1.0x10-5 M. You will be using this to make two standard solutions
artcher [175]

Answer:

1. V₁ = 2.0 mL

2. V₁ = 2.5 mL

Explanation:

<em>You are provided with a stock solution with a concentration of 1.0 × 10⁻⁵ M. You will be using this to make two standard solutions via serial dilution.</em>

To calculate the volume required (V₁) in each dilution we will use the dilution rule.

C₁ . V₁ = C₂ . V₂

where,

C are the concentrations

V are the volumes

1 refers to the initial state

2 refers to the final state

<em>1. Perform calculations to determine the volume of the 1.0 × 10⁻⁵ M stock solution needed to prepare 10.0 mL of a 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ M solution.</em>

C₁ . V₁ = C₂ . V₂

(1.0 × 10⁻⁵ M) . V₁ = (2.0 × 10⁻⁶ M) . 10.0 mL

V₁ = 2.0 mL

<em>2. Perform calculations to determine the volume of the 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ M solution needed to prepare 10.0 mL of a 5.0 × 10⁻⁷ M solution.</em>

C₁ . V₁ = C₂ . V₂

(2.0 × 10⁻⁶ M) . V₁ = (5.0 × 10⁻⁷ M) . 10.0 mL

V₁ = 2.5 mL

Find the number of moles of barium iodide if you have 5.23 x 1024 formula units of Bal2
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

8.68 moles of BaI₂

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of BaI₂ = ?

Number of formula units = 5.23× 10²⁴

Solution:

By using Avogadro number,

1 mole of any  substance contain 6.022× 10²³ formula units.

5.23× 10²⁴ formula units of BaI₂ × 1 mol / 6.022× 10²³ formula units

0.868 × 10¹ moles of BaI₂

8.68 moles of BaI₂

Thus, 5.23× 10²⁴ formula units of BaI₂ contain 8.68 moles of BaI₂

Explain what is meant by the phrase 'the heat death of the universe."
Vikki [24]

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

Are you literally posting your entire you chemistry homework on this site, one question at a time? Anyways, the heat death refers to the second law of thermodynamics and entropy. Heat is constantly flowing from warmer to cooler objects and never the other way around. This heat flow increases entropy, which is constantly increasing. The universe will eventually disperse all of its heat energy away to continuously increase entropy and reach a limit as the temperature reaches 0 K at which point all molecular motion will cease and so will the life of the universe.
