In 1774, Joseph Priestly discovered oxygen gas by heating mercury(II) oxide powder with focused sunlight through a lens. How man

y grams of HgO (216.59 g/mol) would be decomposed to produce 1.50 mol O2 ? A. 650. g HgO B. 325gHgO C. 162gHgO D. 3.00 g HgO

Answer:

A. 650 g

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

2 HgO(s) --> 2Hg(s)  + O2(l)

From the reaction;

2 mol of HgO produces 1 mol of O2

x mol of HgO would produce 1.50 mol of O2

2 = 1

x = 1.5

Solving for x;

x = 1.5 * 2 / 1 = 3 mol

Converting to mass;

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Mass = 3 mol  * 216.59 g/mol

Mass = 649.77 g ≈ 650. g

Correct option is ;

A. 650 g

What would happen if I removed a resistor from a parallel circuit? What would
barxatty [35]

Answer:

In a parallel circuit, current divides through resistors and current might be different depending upon the resistor and all resistors have the same potential difference. Therefore, if a parallel resistor was removed then the total resistance of the circuit will increase.

MULTIPLE CHOICE QUESTION
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

(a) The slope of distance-time graph gives the speed of the objects.

           As the slope of object  (B) is the greatest among all, thus  B has the largest speed and hence it is the fastest among all the objects.

(b)  :      As the curve of the objects do not intersect with each other even once, hence they cannot be at the same point on the road at the same time.

(c)   :      On the y axis  (i.e.  distance line), 7 small represents 4 km

      ∴  1 small line  =  

7

4

​  

=0.57 km

           Position of C at the instant B passes A is  8 km

       

(d)   ;     Position of B at the instant it passes C is 2nd small line above 4 km i.e. 4+2×0.57=5.14 km  

       ∴ Distance traveled by B   =5.14−0=5.14 kmV

jonny [76]
Option B is correct. Average speed can be found through the equation speed = distance/time. Applying this to each person using the data in the chart:

Dennis’ speed: 60 ft/0.5 secs = 120 ft per sec

Johnny’s speed: 60 ft/0.45 secs = 133.333 ft per sec

Travis’ speed: 60 ft/0.52 secs = 115.38 ft per sec

Michael’s speed: 60 ft/0.48 secs = 125 ft per sec

As you can see, Johnny’s speed is the fastest at 133.333 ft/sec.
