Ca(OH)2

Make sure your charges are balanced when you write the compound. Ca has a +2 charge and OH has a -1 charge so you need 2 of OH.

What is the volume of 11.2 g of O2 at 7.78 atm and 415 K?

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

1.53 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Mass of oxygen (m): 11.2 g

Pressure (P): 7.78 atm

Temperature (T): 415 K

Ideal gas constant (R): 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K

Step 2: Calculate the moles (n) corresponding to 11.2 g of oxygen

The molar mass of oxygen is 32.00 g/mol.

11.2 g × (1 mol/32.00 g) = 0.350 mol

Step 3: Calculate the volume of oxygen

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

V = n × R × T / P

V = 0.350 mol × (0.0821 atm.L/mol.K) × 415 K / 7.78 atm

V = 1.53 L

Answer:

Fusion

Explanation:

Fission definition:

In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry, nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction or a radioactive decay process in which the nucleus of an atom splits into two or more smaller, lighter nuclei.

Fusion definition:

Nuclear fusion is the process by which two or more atomic nuclei join together, or “fuse,” to form a single heavier nucleus. During this process, matter is not conserved because some of the mass of the fusing nuclei is converted to energy, which is released.

Both together: (vs.)

Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.

For the following reaction, 22.9 grams of nitrogen monoxide are allowed to react with 5.80 grams of hydrogen gas. nitrogen monox

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

1) Maximun ammount of nitrogen gas: $m_{N2}=10.682 g N_2$

2) Limiting reagent: $NO$

3) Ammount of excess reagent: $m_{N2}=4.274 g$

Explanation:

<u>The reaction </u>

$2 NO (g) + 2 H_2 (g) \longrightarrow N_2 (g) + 2 H_2O (g)$

Moles of nitrogen monoxide

Molecular weight: $M_{NO}=30 g/mol$

$n_{NO}=\frac{m_{NO}}{M_{NO}}$

$n_{NO}=\frac{22.9 g}{30 g/mol}=0.763 mol$

Moles of hydrogen

Molecular weight: $M_{H2}=2 g/mol$

$n_{H2}=\frac{m_{H2}}{M_{H2}}$

$n_{H2}=\frac{.5.8 g}{2 g/mol}=2.9 mol$

Mol rate of H2 and NO is 1:1 => hydrogen gas is in excess

1) <u>Maximun ammount of nitrogen gas</u> => when all NO reacted

$m_{N2}=0.763 mol NO* \frac{1 mol N_2}{2 mol NO}*\frac{28 g N_2}{mol N_2}$

$m_{N2}=10.682 g N_2$

2) <u>Limiting reagent</u>: $NO$

3) <u>Ammount of excess reagent</u>:

$m_{N2}=(2.9 mol - 0.763 mol NO* \frac{1 mol H_2}{1 mol NO})*\frac{2 g H_2}{mol H_2}$

$m_{N2}=4.274 g$

Define the law of conservation of charge and provide an example.

iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Conservation of Charge is the principle that the total electric charge in an isolated system never changes. The net quantity of electric charge, the amount of positive charge minus the amount of negative charge in the universe, is always conserved.
