2. What evidence is there that mass extinction events occurred?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natalija [7]2 years ago
5 0

Answer: Although the best-known cause of a mass extinction is the asteroid impact that killed off the non-avian dinosaurs, in fact, volcanic activity seems to have wreaked much more havoc on Earth's biota. Volcanic activity is implicated in at least four mass extinctions, while an asteroid is a suspect in just one. Examples, of mass extinctions are Permian extinction of marine species, and Cretaceous extinction of various species, including dinosaurs.

Calculate the mass of sodium phosphate in aqueous solution to fully react with 37 g of chromium nitrate(III) an aqueous solution
Alla [95]

Answer:

41 g

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

Cr(NO3)3(aq)+Na3PO4(aq)=3NaNO3(s)+CrPO4(aq)

Number of moles of chromium nitrate = 37g/ 146.97 g/mol = 0.25 moles

1 mole of sodium phosphate reacts with 1 mole of chromium nitrate

x moles of sodium phosphate react as with 0.25 moles of chromium nitrate

x= 1 × 0.25/1

x= 0.25 moles

Mass of sodium phosphate = 0.25 moles × 163.94 g/mol

Mass of sodium phosphate = 41 g

CS2 (s) + 3 O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2 SO2 (g)
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

2.067 L ≅ 2.07 L.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation for the mentioned reaction is:

<em>CS₂(g) + 3O₂(g) → CO₂(g) + 2SO₂(g),</em>

It is clear that 1.0 mole of CS₂ react with 3.0 mole of O₂ to produce 1.0 mole of CO₂ and 2.0 moles of SO₂.

  • At STP, 3.6 L of H₂ reacts with (?? L) of oxygen gas:

It is known that at STP: every 1.0 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L.

<u><em>using cross multiplication:</em></u>

1.0 mol of O₂ represents → 22.4 L.

??? mol of O₂ represents → 3.1 L.

∴ 3.1 L of O₂ represents = (1.0 mol)(3.1 L)/(22.4 L) = 0.1384 mol.

  • To find the no. of moles of SO₂ produced from 3.1 liters (0.1384 mol) of hydrogen:

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

3.0 mol of O₂ produce → 2.0 mol of SO₂, from stichiometry.

0.1384 mol of O₂ produce → ??? mol of SO₂.

∴ The no. of moles of SO₂ = (2.0 mol)(0.1384 mol)/(3.0 mol) = 0.09227 mol.

  • Again, using cross multiplication:

1.0 mol of SO₂ represents → 22.4 L, at STP.

0.09227 mol of SO₂ represents → ??? L.

∴ The no. of liters of SO₂ will be produced = (0.09227 mol)(22.4 L)/(1.0 mol) = 2.067 L ≅ 2.07 L.

20.00 g of aluminum (al) reacts with 78.78 grams of molecular chlorine (cl2) all of each reactant is completely consumed and a s
marysya [2.9K]

The mass of the product is <em>98.78 g.</em>

The word equation is

aluminum + chlorine → product

20.00 g + 98.78 g → <em>x</em> g

If each reactant is completely consumed, the <em>Law of conservation of Mass </em>tells us the mass of the product must be 98.78 g.
