Ammonium perchlorate NH4ClO4 is a powerful solid rocket fuel, used in the Space Shuttle boosters. It decomposes into nitrogen N2

gas, chlorine Cl2 gas, oxygen O2 gas and water vapor, releasing a great deal of energy. Calculate the moles of oxygen produced by the reaction of 0.055mol of ammonium perchlorate. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if necessary, and round it to the correct number of significant digits.

Answer: 0.055 moles of O_2 are produced by the reaction of 0.055 mol of ammonium perchlorate.

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction for decomposition of ammonium perchlorate is:

2NH_4ClO_4\rightarrow N_2+Cl_2+2O_2+4H_2O  

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of NH_4ClO_4 produce = 2 moles of O_2

Thus 0.055 moles of NH_4ClO_4 will produce =\frac{2}{2}\times 0.055=0.055moles of O_2

Thus 0.055 moles of O_2 are produced by the reaction of 0.055mol of ammonium perchlorate.

What happened to the weather after mount tambora epurted?
storchak [24]

Answer:

The eruption of Mount Tambora eventually reduced the average global temperature by as much as 3 °C.

Explanation:

The Mount Tambora eruption was the largest and most destructive volcanic event in recorded history, expelling as much as 150 cubic km (roughly 36 cubic miles) of ash, pumice, and other rock, and aerosols—including an estimated 60 megatons of sulfur—into the atmosphere. As that material mixed with atmospheric gases, it prevented substantial amounts of sunlight from reaching Earth’s surface, eventually reducing the average global temperature by as much as 3 °C.

How many grams of lithium sulfide must be dissolved in 1600.0 g water to make a 2.0 molal solution?
klasskru [66]
Molality is the number of moles of solutes in 1 kg of solvent.
the molality of solution to be prepared is 2.0 molal. 
therefore 2 moles in 1 kg water.
the mass of Li₂S required is - 46 g/mol x 2.0 mol = 92 g
the mass in 1 kg of solvent is - 92 g
Therefore mass of Li₂S required in 1600.0 g is - 92 g/kg x 1.6 kg = 147.2 g

Do metals form are anions or cations?
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer: Metals form cations.

The alkali metals (the IA elements) lose a single electron to form a cation with a 1+ charge.

The alkaline earth metals (IIA elements) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation.

Aluminum, a member of the IIIA family, loses three electrons to form a 3+ cation.

Therefore, metals in the s and p block of the periodic table have 1, 2 or 3 electrons in their outermost orbit (or valence shell). Now to gain a stable octet metals lose either 1, 2 or 3 electrons from the valence shell thus forming cation with +1, +2 or +3 charge.

Discuss the different observations that you would record during an investigation into the energy transformations of a lamp that
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

See the answer below, please.

Explanation:

Take as an example a light bulb inside a lamp to illuminate a room. When you plug it in a plug and turn it on, light is generated. More precisely, heat (Joule effect) is produced inside the lamp by its internal filament (conductive material) when it passes through the electrical energy, generated by the friction of the atoms that are inside it when it encounters a resistance.
