What does this rising heat and resulting convection cycle do to our rigid lithosphere

Chemistry

1 answer:

Verdich [7]2 years ago

Answer:

The movement of heat by convection in the asthenosphere causes the rock of the mantle to slowly move in huge streams. ... As the rock of the asthenosphere moves in different directions, it carries parts of the lithosphere along with it. The lithospheric rock can't stretch, so it breaks into pieces--forming the plates.

Solid sodium reacts violently with water, producing heat, hydrogen gas, and sodium hydroxide. How many molecules of hydrogen gas

Zinaida [17]

Answer: Number of molecules of hydrogen gas $6.32\times 10^{32}$

Explanation:

$2Na+2H_2O\rightarrow 2NaOH+H_2$

Number of moles of sodium = $\frac{\text{mass of sodium}}{\text{molar mass of sodium}}=\frac{48.7 g}{23 g/mol}=2.11mol$

According to reaction , 2 moles of sodium produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas , then 2.11 mol of sodium will= $\frac{1}{2}\times 2.11 mol$ of hydrogen gas that is 1.05 moles of hydrogen gas.

Number of molecules = $N_A(\text{Avogadro number})\times$ moles of substance

Moles of hydrogen gas formed = 1.05 moles

Number of molecules of hydrogen gas = $N_A\times$ moles of hydrogen gas

Number of molecules of hydrogen gas $=6.022\times 10^{23} mole^{-1}\times 1.05 mole=6.32\times 10^{32}$

Zinc metal is added to a flask containing aqueous hydrochloric acid. The flask contains 0.400 mole of HCl. How much hydrogen gas

dusya [7]

Answer:

0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.

1. 0.48 mole of HCl is needed to react completely with 15.5 g of zinc.

2. HCl is the limiting reactant.

3. 2.61 g of zinc is in excess

Explanation:

From the balanced equation of reaction:

$Zn(s)+ 2HCl(aq) --> H_2(g) + ZnCl_2(aq)$

1 mole of Zn requires 2 moles of HCl to produce 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

15.5 g of zinc = 15.5/65.3 = 0.24 moles of zinc.

0.24 moles Zn is supposed to require 0.24 x 2 moles HCl which is equivalent to 0.48 moles HCl.

But only 0.400 mole of HCl is present. Hence, HCl is the limiting reagent. For complete reaction with 15.5 g of Zinc, 0.48 mole HCl would be needed.

0.400 mole of HCl will require 0.2 mole of Zn for complete reaction. This thus means that 0.24 - 02 = 0.04 mole of Zn is in excess.

0.04 mole Zn = 0.04 x 65.3 = 2.61 g excess Zn.

Now, since HCl is the limiting reagent;

2 moles of HCl is required to produce 1 mole of H2 according to the equation.

0.400 mole HCl will therefore yield 0.400 x 1/2 = 0.2 mole H2

0.2 mole H2 = 2 x 0.2 = 0.4 g H2

Hence, 0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.

State Hund's rule.

loris [4]

Answer:

C. The lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, all of which have the same spin, in degenerate orbitals.

Explanation:

The Hund's rule is used to place the electrons in the orbitals is it states that:

1. Every orbital in a sublevel is singly occupied before any orbital is doubly occupied;

2. All of the electrons in singly occupied orbitals have the same spin.

So, the electrons first seek to fill the orbitals with the same energy (degenerate orbitals) before paring with electrons in a half-filled orbital. Orbitals doubly occupied have greater energy, so the lowest-energy electron configuration of an atom has the maximum number of unpaired electrons, and for the second statement, they have the same spin.

The other alternatives are correct, but they're not observed by the Hund's rule.
