Answer:

$\huge\boxed{\sf Option \ A}$

Explanation:

The symbol for TIN is Sn.

When Sn loses 2 electrons, it gets a double positive charge ( +2 ) and becomes $\sf Sn ^{+2}$ .

It becomes a cation.

The name of Ion is Tin ( II ) Ion.

Excess magnesium reacts with 165.0 grams of hydrochloric acid in a single displacement reaction.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

The volume of hydrogen gas produced will be approximately 50.7 liters under STP.

Explanation:

Relative atomic mass data from a modern periodic table:

H: 1.008;
Cl: 35.45.

Magnesium is a reactive metal. It reacts with hydrochloric acid to produce

Hydrogen gas $\rm H_2$ , and
Magnesium chloride, which is a salt.

The chemical equation will be something like

$\rm ?\;Mg\;(s) + ?\;HCl \;(aq)\to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ [\text{Formula of the Salt}]$ ,

where the coefficients and the formula of the salt are to be found.

To determine the number of moles of $\rm H_2$ that will be produced, first find the formula of the salt, magnesium chloride.

Magnesium is a group 2 metal. The oxidation state of magnesium in compounds tends to be +2.

On the other hand, the charge on each chloride ion is -1. Each magnesium ion needs to pair up with two chloride ions for the charge to balance in the salt, magnesium chloride. The formula for the salt will be $\rm MgCl_2$ .

$\rm ?\;Mg\;(s) + ?\;HCl\;(aq) \to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ ?\;MgCl_2\;(aq)$ .

Balance the equation. $\rm MgCl_2$ contains the largest number of atoms among all species in this reaction. Start by setting its coefficient to 1.

$\rm ?\;Mg\;(s) + ?\;HCl\;(aq) \to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ {\bf 1\;MgCl_2}\;(aq)$ .

The number of $\rm Mg$ and $\rm Cl$ atoms shall be the same on both sides. Therefore

$\rm {\bf 1\;Mg}\;(s) + {\bf 2\;HCl}\;(aq) \to ?\;H_2 \;(g)+ {1\;\underset{\wedge}{Mg}\underset{\wedge}{Cl_2}}\;(aq)$ .

The number of $\rm H$ atoms shall also conserve. Hence the equation:

$\rm {1\;Mg}\;(s) + {2\;\underset{\wedge}{H}Cl}\;(aq) \to {\bf 1\;H_2 \;(g)}+ {1\;MgCl_2}\;(aq)$ .

How many moles of HCl are available?

$M(\rm HCl) = 1.008 + 35.45 = 36.458\;g\cdot mol^{-1}$ .

$\displaystyle n({\rm HCl}) = \frac{m(\text{HCl})}{M(\text{HCl})} = \rm \frac{165.0\;g}{36.458\;g\cdot mol^{-1}} = 4.52576\;mol$ .

How many moles of Hydrogen gas will be produced?

Refer to the balanced chemical equation, the coefficient in front of $\rm HCl$ is 2 while the coefficient in front of $\rm H_2$ is 1. In other words, it will take two moles of $\rm HCl$ to produce one mole of $\rm H_2$ . $\rm 4.52576\;mol$ of $\rm HCl$ will produce only one half as much $\rm H_2$ .

Alternatively, consider the ratio between the coefficient in front of $\rm H_2$ and $\rm HCl$ is:

$\displaystyle \frac{n(\text{H}_2)}{n(\text{HCl})} = \frac{1}{2}$ .

$\displaystyle n(\text{H}_2) = n(\text{HCl})\cdot \frac{n(\text{H}_2)}{n(\text{HCl})} = \frac{1}{2}\;n(\text{HCl}) = \rm \frac{1}{2}\times 4.52576\;mol = 2.26288\;mol$ .

What will be the volume of that many hydrogen gas?

One mole of an ideal gas occupies a volume of 22.4 liters under STP (where the pressure is 1 atm.) On certain textbook where STP is defined as $\rm 1.00\times 10^{5}\;Pa$ , that volume will be 22.7 liters.

$V(\text{H}_2) = \rm 2.26288\;mol\times 22.4\;L\cdot mol^{-1} = 50.69\; L$ , or

$V(\text{H}_2) = \rm 2.26288\;mol\times 22.7\;L\cdot mol^{-1} = 51.37\; L$ .

The value "165.0 grams" from the question comes with four significant figures. Keep more significant figures than that in calculations. Round the final result to four significant figures.

3: Consider molecules of hydrogen (tiny ones) and oxygen (bigger ones) in a gas mixture. If they have the same average kinetic e

mezya [45]

Answer: Hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed.

Explanation:

The formula for average speed is :

$\mu_{av}={\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M}}}$

R = gas constant

T = temperature

M = Molecular Mass

Now putting all the values:

$\frac{\nu_{H_2}}{\nu_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M_{H_2}}}/{\sqrt{\frac{8RT}{\pi\times M_{O_2}}}$

$\frac{\nu_{H_2}}{\nu_{O_2}}=\sqrt{\frac{16}{2}}$

$\frac{\nu_{av}_{H_2}}{\nu_{av}_{O_2}}=8$

Thus average speed of hydrogen is 8 times the average speed of oxygen. Thus hydrogen molecules will have greatest average speed

Darin skateboarded to the north at 4 m/s. In 5 seconds, he sped up to 7 m/s. What was his acceleration?

Julli [10]

To solve this problem we can use following equation.

v =u + at

Where v is the final velocity (m/s), u is the initial velocity (m/s), a is the acceleration (m/s²) and t is the time taken (s).

v = 7 m/s
u = 4 m/s
a = ?
t = 5 s

By applying the equation, we can get
7 m/s = 4 m/s + a x 5 s
3 m/s = a x 5 s
a = 0.6 m/s²

Hence, the acceleration is 0.6 m/s² towards north.

Answer is "C".

Element A has 15 protons. Determine the number of neutrons in its isotope with mass number 33.

bagirrra123 [75]

In an electrically neuteral atom, number of protons = number of electrons = atomic number.
Mass number = neutrons + protons/electrons/atomic number
Therefore,
neutrons = mass number - <span>protons/electrons/atomic number
Neutrons = 33 - 15 = 18

The answer is thus B. But this is the solution and explanation along with it as proof.</span>
