Answer:

see note under explanation

Explanation:

When describing system and surroundings the system is typically defined as the 'object of interest' being studied and surroundings 'everything else'. In thermodynamics heat flow is typically defined as endothermic or exothermic. However, one should realize that the terms endothermic and exothermic are in reference to the 'system' or object of interest being studied. For example if heat is transferred from a warm object to a cooler object it is imperative that the system be defined 1st. So, with that, assume the system is a warm metal cylinder being added into cooler water. When describing heat flow then the process is exothermic with respect to the metal cylinder (the system) but endothermic to the water and surroundings (everything else).

What is the mass, in pounds, of 389 mL of a gas that has a density of 1.29 g/L?

devlian [24]

Answer: Mass of gas is 0.001 pounds.

Explanation:

Density is defined as the mass contained per unit volume.

$Density=\frac{mass}{Volume}$

Given : Mass of gas = ?

Density of gas = $1.29g/L$

Volume of gas = 389 ml = 0.389 L (1L=1000ml)

Putting in the values we get:

$1.29g/L=\frac{mass}{0.389L}$

$mass=0.5grams$

$mass=0.5\times 0.002lb=0.001lb$ (1g =0.002 lb)

Thus the mass of gas is 0.001 pounds.

Question 14 of 32

ser-zykov [4K]

The equilibrium expression for the reaction; C(s) + O₂(g) ------->CO₂(g) is [CO2]/[C] [O2] option C.

<h3>What is the equilibrium expression?</h3>

The equilibrium expression shows how much of the reactants are converted into products. If the equilibrium constant is large and positive, most of the reactants have been converted into products.

Thus, the equilibrium expression for the reaction; C(s) + O₂(g) ------->CO₂(g) is [CO2]/[C] [O2] option C.

Solid calcium carbonate decomposes to produce solid calcium oxide and carbon dioxide gas. Express your answer as a chemical equa

Gwar [14]

Answer:

$CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when solid calcium carbonate, CaCO3 (s), is decomposed by the action of thermal energy (heat), solid calcium oxide, CaO (s) and carbon dioxide gas, CO2 (g) are yielded via the following reaction:

$CaCO_3\rightarrow CaO+CO_2$

However, since calcium carbonate is solid as well as calcium oxide and carbon dioxide is given off as a gas, we write:

$CaCO_3(s)\rightarrow CaO(s)+CO_2(g)$

Which also balanced.

Best regards!
