Answer:

The magnesium ion is much smaller than the magnesium atom because magnesium atom contains more electrons as compared to magnesium ion. Explanation: ... Whereas when an atom tends to lose an electron then it acquires a positive charge and size of the atom tends to increase.

Ann and Carol each lift the timber with a force of 80 kg/m/s2. If they lift the timber a distance of 1.25 meters, how much work

Novosadov [1.4K]

Work is defined energy transferred from one to another.
The formula for work done is work done = force x distance

So in our problem, force is equal to 80 kg/ m / s^2 and distance is equal to 1.25 meters. So plugging in our values will give us:

work done = 80 kg/ m/ s^2 * 1.25 m
= 100.00 J is the answer.

In the equation CH4 + 2O2 --> 2H2O + CO2 What is the mass of CO2 produced when 35g of O2 reacts?

Anestetic [448]

Answer:

24.06 g of CO₂

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CH₄ + 2O₂ —> 2H₂O + CO₂

Next, we shall determine the mass of O₂ that reacted and the mass of CO₂ produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of O₂ = 2 × 16 = 32 g/mol

Mass of O₂ from the balanced equation = 2 × 32 = 64 g

Molar mass of CO₂ = 12 + (2×16)

= 12 + 32

= 44 g/mol

Mass of CO₂ from the balanced equation = 1 × 44 = 44 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of CO₂ produced by the reaction of 35 g of O₂. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

64 g of O₂ reacted to produce 44 g of CO₂.

Therefore, 35 g of O₂ will react to produce = (35 × 44)/64 = 24.06 g of CO₂.

Thus, 24.06 g of CO₂ were produced from the reaction.

A sample of solid sodium hydroxide, weighing 13.20 grams is dissolved in deionized water to make a solution. What volume in mL o

Andreas93 [3]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

2.809 L of H₂SO₄

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

Concept tested: Moles and Molarity

In this case we are give;

Mass of solid sodium hydroxide as 13.20 g

Molarity of H₂SO₄ as 0.235 M

We are required to determine the volume of H₂SO₄ required

<h3>First: We need to write the balanced equation for the reaction.</h3>

The reaction between NaOH and H₂SO₄ is a neutralization reaction.
The balanced equation for the reaction is;

2NaOH + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + 2H₂O

<h3>Second: We calculate the umber of moles of NaOH used </h3>

Number of moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass
Molar mass of NaOH is 40.0 g/mol

Therefore;

Moles of NaOH = 13.20 g ÷ 40.0 g/mol

= 0.33 moles

<h3>Third: Determine the number of moles of the acid, H₂SO₄</h3>

From the equation, 2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of H₂SO₄
Therefore, the mole ratio of NaOH: H₂SO₄ is 2 : 1.
Thus, Moles of H₂SO₄ = moles of NaOH × 2

= 0.33 moles × 2

= 0.66 moles of H₂SO₄

<h3>Fourth: Determine the Volume of the acid, H₂SO₄ used</h3>

When given the molarity of an acid and the number of moles we can calculate the volume of the acid.

That is; Volume = Number of moles ÷ Molarity

In this case;

Volume of the acid = 0.66 moles ÷ 0.235 M

= 2.809 L

Therefore, the volume of the acid required to neutralize the base,NaOH is 2.809 L.
