Which chemical equation represents a decomposition reaction?
MrMuchimi

Decomposition reaction D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Every chemical reaction involves a compound consisting of reactants and products  

Reactants are compounds that react and form new compounds called products

There are several forms of reactions that can occur, including single replacement, double replacement, synthesis, decomposition, etc.

A. 2C2H6 + 702 ⇒ 4CO2 + 6H20

Combustion : reaction of Hydrocarbon and Oxygen

B. AgNO3 + LiCl → AgCl + LINO3

Double replacement : there is an ion exchange between two ion compounds in the reactant to form two new ion compounds in the product

C. Ca + MgS → CaS + Mg

Single replacement :one element replaces the other elements of a compound to produce new elements and compounds

D. 2H20⇒ 2H2 + O2

Decomposition : One compound breaks down into 2 components

How many atoms of hydrogen are in 0.500 mol of ch3oh molecules?
cestrela7 [59]
In 1 mol of CH3OH, you have 4 H-atoms (because 3 H-atoms are attached to the C-atom, and one H-atom in the OH group). That means in 0.500 mol of CH3OH, you have 2 H-atoms since it is halved. And then we have Avogadro's constant: 6.02 * 1023.

The question asks for how many hydrogen atoms there are in 0.500 mol CH3OH. Using the numbers that we have (Avogadro's constant and no. of H-atoms), the answer of the question will be something like:

<span>H-atoms in CH3OH = 2 * 6.02 * </span>1023<span> = ~1.2 * 10</span>24

The men's world record for swimming 1500 m in a long course pool is 14 min 34.56 s. At this rate how many seconds would it take
vlabodo [156]
Distance = 1500m, time = 14min 34.56s = 14*60 + 34.56 = 874.56s

Speed = Distance / time = 1500/874.56 = 1.715 m/s

In order to swim 0.7 miles, 1 mile = 1609.344 m

Time = Distance / speed = 1609.344 m / 1.715 m/s = 938.393 seconds

938/60 = 15 minutes, 38 seconds.

= 15 minutes 38.393 seconds.

how many moles of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) are required to completely neutralize 2 mol of nitric acid (HNO3)
Brut [27]

2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be needed.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Sodium hydroxide is a compound which is a base and nitric acid is the acid. The formula of the nitric acid is HNO3 and that of sodium hydroxide is NaOH.

The reaction between them are

NaOH +HNO3 =NaNO3 +H2O.

So here we can see that 1 mole of sodium hydroxide reacts with 1 mole of nitric acid to produce 1 mole of sodium nitrate and 1 mole of water.

So for 2 moles of nitric acid, 2 moles of sodium hydroxide will be required.
