Answer: Option (D)

Explanation: In order to form coal, two processes might be undergone and they are as follows-

  1. Peatification- It is the process by which the remains of trees and plants undergoes partial decomposition in a swampy type of environment, conserving organic matter. It is the first stage of coal formation.
  2. Coalification- It is the process of complete transformation of the dead remains of plants and trees into coal.

Thus the correct answer is option (D).

What mass of S8 will completely react with 167.6 grams of Fe?
IRISSAK [1]
Answer:
mass of S₈ = 96.1146 grams

Explanation:
The balanced equation that describe the reaction is as follows:
8 Fe + S₈ ..............> 8 FeS

From the equation, we can note that:
8 moles of Fe react with 1 mole of S₈
This means that:
8 * 55.8 grams of iron react with 8 * 32 grams of S₈.
To know the mass of S₈ that will react with 167.6 grams of Fe, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
mass of S₈ = (167.6 * 8 * 32) / (8 * 55.8)
mass of S₈ = 96.1146 grams

Hope this helps :)

You collect a sample of gases from an indoor pool area. The sample contains air and water vapor. The total pressure is 100.18 ki
nikitadnepr [17]

Here we have to choose the partial pressure exerted by the air in the given sample among the given options.

The partial pressure of the air in the sample is C. 96.82 kPa.

As per the Dalton's law of partial pressure the total pressure of the gas in the pool (P) is equivalent to the summation of the partial pressure of water vapor and air pressure.

Mathematically we may write:

P_{Total}= P_{water vapor} +  P_{Air}

Now the P_{Total} = 100.18 kilopascalsP_{water vapor} = 3.36 kilopascals.On plugging the values:100.18 kilopascals = 3.36 kilopascals + P_{Air}

Or, P_{Air}[/tex] = (100.18 - 3.36) kilopascals

Or, P_{Air}[/tex] = 96.82 Kilopascals.

Thus the partial pressure of the air in the sample is C. 96.82 kPa.

What reaction might we use to synthesize nickel sulfate, NiSO4?
guapka [62]

As I understand from your question, we should synthesize nickel sulfate first from nickel (II) oxide and sulfuric acid and second from nickel carbonate and sulfuric acid.

The chemical reactions will look like this:

NiO (s) + H₂SO₄ (aq) → NiSO₄ (aq) + H₂O (l)

NiCO₃ (aq)* + H₂SO₄ → NiSO₄ (aq) + H₂CO₃ (aq)

but carbonic acid will decompose to carbon dioxide and water

H₂CO₃ (aq) → CO₂ (g) + H₂O (l)

(*) NiCO₃ has a poor solubility in water, but enough to start the reaction.

NaI+pb(so4)2=Pbi4+Na2(so4) <br> How do you balance this equation
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

By putting a coefficient 4 on NaI and 2 on Na₂SO₄

4NaI + Pb(SO₄)₂ → Pbi4 + 2Na₂SO₄

Explanation:

  • A chemical equation is balanced for it to obey the law of conservation of mass.
  • According to the law of conservation of mass, the mass of the reactants should be equal to the mass of products.
  • Balancing involves putting coefficients on reactants and products to get an equal number of atoms of each element on either side of the equation.
  • In this case, putting a coefficient four on NaI and two on Na₂SO₄ will make the equation to be balanced.
  • Therefore, the balanced chemical equation is;

4NaI + Pb(SO₄)₂ → Pbi4 + 2Na₂SO₄
