Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

Sodium is a silvery-white metal that reacts with chlorine gas, which is a yellow-greenish gas that is toxic. The reaction gives off a lot of heat. After the reaction, which statement is true about the chemical properties of the product, sodium chloride?

Pure sodium reacts violently and sometimes explosively with water producing sodium hydroxide, hydrogen gas and heat

2Na(s) + 2H2O(l) → 2NaOH(aq) + H2(g)

Chlorine is a very poisonous yellow green gas with a sharp odour that was used in gas warfare during WW1

Sodium and chlorine reacts with each other, however, to produce one of the most familiar substance used in cooking and preservation industry today Sodium Chloride or Common salt or table salt in the irreversible equation;

2Na(s) + Cl2(g) → 2NaCl(s)

Explanation:

It is easy to see why this reaction takes place so readily sodium has one electron in its outermost valence shell while chlorine has seven electrons in its valence shell. when sodium atom transfers one electron to chlorine atom forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-) both ions have complete valence shells and are energetically more stable. the reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat and fumes of sodium chloride.

In a reaction observation of the reaction process you will see sodium flares up almost immediately upon reaction with water.

A penny has a mass of 2.50g and the Moon has a mass of ×7.351022kg, How many moles of pennies have a mass equal to the mass of t

baherus [9]

Answer: 122 moles

Procedure:

1) Convert all the units to the same unit

2) mass of a penny = 2.50 g

3) mass of the Moon = 7.35 * 10^22 kg (I had to arrage your numbers because it was wrong).

=> 7.35 * 10^22 kg * 1000 g / kg = 7.35 * 10^ 25 g.

4) find how many times the mass of a penny is contained in the mass of the Moon.

You have to divide the mass of the Moon by the mass of a penny

7.35 * 10^ 25 g / 2.50 g = 2.94 * 10^25 pennies

That means that 2.94 * 10^ 25 pennies have the mass of the Moon, which you can check by mulitiplying the mass of one penny times the number ob pennies: 2.50 g * 2.94 * 10^25 = 7.35 * 10^25.

5) Convert the number of pennies into mole unit. That is using Avogadros's number: 6.022 * 10^ 23

7.35 * 10^ 25 penny * 1 mol / (6.022 * 10^ 23 penny) = 1.22* 10^ 2 mole = 122 mol.

Answer: 122 mol

A chemist uses hot hydrogen gas to convert chromium(III) oxide to

Darya [45]

Answer: 3.024 g grams of hydrogen are needed to convert 76 grams of chromium(III) oxide, $Cr_{2}O_{3}$

Explanation:

The reaction equation for given reaction is as follows.

$Cr_{2}O_{3} + 3H_{2} \rightarrow 2Cr + 3H_{2}O$

Here, 1 mole of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ reacts with 3 moles of $H_{2}$ .

As mass of chromium (III) oxide is given as 76 g and molar mass of chromium (III) oxide $(Cr_{2}O_{3})$ is 152 g/mol.

Number of moles is the mass of substance divided by its molar mass. So, moles of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ is calculated as follows.

$No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\= \frac{76 g}{152 g/mol}\\= 0.5 mol$

Now, moles of $H_{2}$ .given by 0.5 mol of $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ is calculated as follows.

$0.5 mol Cr_{2}O_{3} \times \frac{3 mol H_{2}}{1 mol Cr_{2}O_{3}}\\= 1.5 mol H_{2}$

As molar mass of $H_{2}$ is 2.016 g/mol. Therefore, mass of $H_{2}$ is calculated as follows.

$No. of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}\\1.5 mol = \frac{mass}{2.016 g/mol}\\mass = 3.024 g$

Thus, we can conclude that 3.024 g grams of hydrogen are needed to convert 76 grams of chromium(III) oxide, $Cr_{2}O_{3}$ .

What percent of earths total volume is the crust

vlada-n [284]

1%

Explanation:

The crust is the thinnest layer of the earth accounting for only 1% total volume of the planets.

Compositionally, the earth is divided into three layers which are the crust, mantle and the core.

The crust is the outermost layer of the earth. It rich in silicate minerals. The rocks are classified into igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
The mantle takes up about 84% of the total volume of the earth. It is located in between the crust and the core. It is predominantly made up of ferro-magnesian silicate minerals.
The cores accounts for slightly 15% of the volume of the earth. It is the center of our geoid shaped earth. It is rich in iron and nickel metals.
