Explanation:

Greenhouse gases are gases in Earth's atmosphere that trap heat. They let sunlight pass through the atmosphere, but they prevent the heat that the sunlight brings from leaving the atmosphere.

babunello [35]

Answer:

H+  +  OH−  --> H2O

Explanation:

Hydrochloric acid is represented by the chemical formular; HCl. This is an ionic substance so in water it breaks apart into hydrohrn ions; H+ and chloride ions; Cl−. It is a strong acid, hence it completely dissociates.

Potassium Hydroxide is also an ionic substance it also breaks apart in water into potassium ions; K+ and hydroxide ions; OH−. It is a strong base, hence it completely dissociates.

The complete ionic equation for the reaction is given as;

H+  +  Cl−  +  K+  +  OH−  -->  K+  +  Cl−  +  H2O

The Hydrogen ion and the Hydroxide ions combine to form water.

The net ionic equation is given as;

H+  +  OH−  --> H2O

Cl- and K+ ions were cancelled out because they do not undergo any changes therefore are not part of the net ionic equation. They are referred to as spectator ions.

Hydrogen gas is collected over water at 21 degrees Celsius. At 21 degrees Celsius the vapor pressure of water is 18.7 torr. If t
Alinara [238K]

Answer : The pressure of hydrogen gas is, 739.3 torr

Explanation :

As we are given:

Vapor pressure of water = 18.7 torr

Barometric pressure = 758 torr

Now we have to calculate the pressure of hydrogen gas.

Pressure of hydrogen gas = Barometric pressure - Vapor pressure of water

Pressure of hydrogen gas = 758 torr - 18.7 torr

Pressure of hydrogen gas = 739.3 torr

Therefore, the pressure of hydrogen gas is, 739.3 torr

Menthol is a flavoring agent extracted from peppermint oil. it contains c, h, and o. in one combustion analysis, 10.00 mg of the
marishachu [46]
Combustion reaction for menthol is as follows;
CxHyOz + O₂ ---> xCO₂ +  H₂O
Mass of CO₂ formed - 28.16 mg
Therefore number of moles formed - 28.16/ 44 g/mol = 0.64 mmol
Mass of water formed  - 11.53 mg
number of water moles formed - 11.53 mg/18 g/mol = 0.64 mmol
From CO₂,
1 mol of CO₂ - 1 mol of C and 2 mol of O
therefore number of C moles - 0.64 mmol
                                 O moles - 1.28 mmol
from H₂O
1 mol of H₂O - 2 mol of H and 1 mol of O
number of H moles - 1.28 mmol
                 O moles - 0.64 mmol

Mass of menthol initially - 10 mg
in reactions, the masses of products are equal to the masses of reactants. The excess mass to the products formed is due to O₂ in air
Original mass of menthol - 10 mg
mass of water and CO₂ - 11.53 mg + 28.16 mg = 39.69
Difference in mass - 39.69 - 10 = 29.69 mg
This difference comes from O moles in air - 29.69 mg/ 16 g/mol = 1.8556 mmol
then O moles coming from menthol - (1.28 + 0.64) - 1.8556 = 0.064 mmol

In menthol 
C moles - 0.64 mmol
H moles - 1.28 mmol
O moles - 0.064 mmol
ratios of C:H:O
C          H         O

Simplest ratio of C:H:O is 10:20:1
therefore empirical formula of menthol is C₁₀H₂₀O

What is the approximate percent by mass of potassium in KHCO3?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

The mass percent of potassium is 39%

Option C is correct

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Atomic mass of K = 39.10 g/mol

Atomic mass of H = 1.01 g/mol

Atomic mass of C = 12.01 g/mol

Atomic mass of O = 16.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate molar mass of KHCO3

Molar mass KHCO3 = 39.10 + 12.01 + 1.01 + 3*16.0

Molar mass KHCO3 = 100.12 g/mol

Step 3: Calculate mass percent of potassium (K)

%K = (atomic mass of K / molar mass of KHCO3) * 100%

%K = (39.10 / 100.12) * 100%

%K = 39.05 %

The mass percent of potassium is 39%

Option C is correct
