Answer:

0.72 g of the lower oxide gave 0.8 g of higher oxide when oxidised. ... Thus, 90g of lower oxide contains as much metal as 100g of higher oxide, i.e., 80g (given). Hence, 80g of metal combines with 10g of oxygen in the lower oxide and 20g of oxygen in the higher oxide.

Answer:

Solution given:

For higher oxide:

contains 80% metal

weight =80% 0f 0.8g=0.64g.

weight of Oxygen=0.8-0.6=0.16g

<u>For</u><u> </u><u>lower</u><u> </u><u>oxide</u><u>:</u>

the metal's weight is fixed.

weight of oxygen=0.72g-0.64g=0.08g

Now

Ratio of oxygen combined with fixed amount of metal is :

0.16:0.08

=2:1

since it is a simple ratio .

so;

<u>It follows the law of multiple proportions</u>.

Does the mass of a ball affect how far it rolls
dybincka [34]
Yes, it depends on the size of the ball and the weight. If it's heavy and big then it'll affect how far it rolls, if it's small and has no weight then it won't really move as much

The combustion of ethene in the presence of excess oxygen yields carbon dioxide and water: c2h4 (g) + 3o2 (g) → 2co2 (g) + 2h2o
meriva

Answer:

\boxed{-267.5}

Explanation:

You can calculate the entropy change of a reaction by using the standard molar entropies of reactants and products.

The formula is

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = \sum_n {nS_{\text{products}}^{\circ} - \sum_{m} {mS_{\text{reactants}}^{\circ}}}

The equation for the reaction is

                        C₂H₄(g) + 3O₂(g) ⟶ 2CO₂(g) + 2H₂O(ℓ)

ΔS°/J·K⁻¹mol⁻¹   219.5      205.0         213.6         69.9

\Delta_{r} S^{\circ} = (2\times213.6 + 2\times69.9) - (1\times219.5 + 3\times205.0)\\\\= 567.0 - 834.5 = \boxed{-267.5 \text{ J}\cdot\text{K}^{-1} \text{mol}^{-1}}

MgX2 Very low density Highly reactive Diatomic Using the periodic table, determine which element these characteristics MOST LIKE
photoshop1234 [79]
Oxygen, fluorine and iodine are diatomic elements. Flourine is more reactive than the other two because it is the closest away to filling its outer layer of electrons and becoming stable like a noble gas.

If a substance has a half life of 58 years and starts with 500 g radioactive, how much remains radioactive after 30 years?
Vilka [71]

Answer:

A = 349 g.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the radioactive decay kinetic model is based on the first-order kinetics whose integrated rate law is:

A=Ao*exp(-kt)

We can firstly calculate the rate constant given the half-life as shown below:

k=\frac{ln(2)}{t_{1/2}} =\frac{ln(2)}{58year}=0.012year^{-1}

Therefore, we can next plug in the rate constant, elapsed time and initial mass of the radioactive to obtain:

A=500g*exp(-0.012year^{-1} *30year)\\\\A=349g

Regards!
