To solve for moles use molar and volume:

M = mol/L

 

0.02700 m= mol/(.75 L)

 

mol = .036 mol of Hg(NO3)2

 

The proportion of Hg(NO3)2 to the Mercury that is used to create HgS is 1:1 so solve for the moles of Mercury used. So:

.036 * (1 Hg(NO3)2 / 1 Hg) = .036 moles of Hg used to make HgS

The proportion of Mercury to HgS is 1:1, as an alternative of doing the obvious math you can conclude that .036 moles of HgS will be produced because you're given .036 moles of Hg and an excess of S. Use the molar mass of HgS to determine how many grams will be produced.

 

.036 moles * 232.66 g/mol = 8.37576 grams of Vermilion is produced.

Carbon disulfide burns in oxygen to yield car- bon dioxide and sulfur dioxide according to the chemical equation cs2(l) 3 o2(g)
vampirchik [111]

Answer: Oxygen is the limiting reagent.

Explanation: CS_2(l)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)+2SO_2(g)

As can be seen from the given balanced equation:

3 moles of O_2 reacts with 1 mole of CS_2

1.52 moles of O_2 reacts with=\frac{1}{3}\times 1.52=0.51moles of CS_2

Thus O_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of products. (0.91-0.51)= 0.40 moles of CS_2 will remain as such and thus  CS_2 is an excess reagent.

Covert to scientific notation.
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

19) 3.6920 × 10⁻⁵

20) 4.059× 10²

21) 2.46810121416 × 10³

22)  1.0000× 10⁻³

Explanation:

Scientific notation is the way to express the large value in short form.

The number in scientific notation have two parts.

The digits (decimal point will place after first digit)

× 10 ( the power which put the decimal point where it should be)

For example:

0.000036920

In scientific notation =  3.6920 × 10⁻⁵

405.9

In scientific notation  = 4.059× 10²

2468.10121416

In scientific notation  = 2.46810121416 × 10³

0.0010000

In scientific notation  = 1.0000× 10⁻³

If the atomic number of an element is 8 and the mass number is 16, the number of neutrons in an atom of that element is what? (s
Serjik [45]

Answer:

8.

Explanation:

Atomic number tells us the number of protons in an element. Mass number is the total amount of mass in an atom, and it comes from the sum of the mass of protons and neutrons, which are both considered to have a mass of 1 amu.

If the total mass is 16amu and 8amu comes from the 8 protons, the remaining mass comes from neutrons.

16 - 8 = 8

Benzoyl peroxide, the substance most widely used against acne, has a half-life of 9.8 × 103 days when refrigerated. How long wil
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

7.3\times 10^2\ days

Explanation:

Given that:

Half life = 9.8\times 10^3 days

t_{1/2}=\frac{\ln2}{k}

Where, k is rate constant

So,  

k=\frac{\ln2}{t_{1/2}}

k=\frac{\ln2}{9.8\times 10^3}\ days^{-1}

The rate constant, k = 0.00007 days⁻¹

Using integrated rate law for first order kinetics as:

[A_t]=[A_0]e^{-kt}

Where,  

[A_t] is the concentration at time t

[A_0] is the initial concentration

Given:

5 % is lost which means that 0.05 of [A_0] is decomposed. So,

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]} = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95

t = ?

\frac {[A_t]}{[A_0]}=e^{-k\times t}

0.95=e^{-0.00007\times t}

t = 732.76 days = 7.3\times 10^2\ days
