Answer is Scientist know about the earth interior from observation of earths gravity seismic waves that travel through the earth and the earths magnetic field as well from how you compare with the chemical composition of meteorites and from experiments that stimulate conditions at the very center of the earth

Complete the equation for the reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar (sucrose). C12H22O11 + 11 H2SO4 ? 12 + 11 H2SO4 + 11

serg [7]

Answer :

The complete equation for the reaction of sulfuric acid and sugar is,

$C_{12}H_{22}O_{11}+11 H_2SO_4\rightarrow 12C+11H_2SO_4+11H_2O$

By the stoichiometry of the reaction,

1 mole of sucrose react with the 11 moles of sulfuric acid to give 12 moles of carbon and 11 moles of water.

In this reaction, sulfuric acid react with sucrose (sugar). It dehydrates the sugar molecules which means it eliminates the water.

Find the de Broglie wavelength lambda for an electron moving at a speed of 1.00 \times 10^6 \; {\rm m/s}. (Note that this speed

masya89 [10]

(A) $7.28\cdot 10^{-10} m$

The De Broglie wavelength of an electron is given by

$\lambda=\frac{h}{p}$ (1)

where

h is the Planck constant

p is the momentum of the electron

The electron in this problem has a speed of

$v=1.00\cdot 10^6 m/s$

and its mass is

$m=9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg$

So, its momentum is

$p=mv=(9.11\cdot 10^{-31} kg)(1.00\cdot 10^6 m/s)=9.11\cdot 10^{-25}kg m/s$

And substituting into (1), we find its De Broglie wavelength

$\lambda=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js}{9.11\cdot 10^{-25} kg m/s}=7.28\cdot 10^{-10} m$

(B) $1.16\cdot 10^{-34}m$

In this case we have:

m = 0.143 kg is the mass of the ball

v = 40.0 m/s is the speed of the ball

So, the momentum of the ball is

$p=mv=(0.143 kg)(40.0 m/s)=5.72 kg m/s$

And so, the De Broglie wavelength of the ball is given by

$\lambda=\frac{h}{p}=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34} Js}{5.72 kg m/s}=1.16\cdot 10^{-34}m$

(C) $9.02\cdot 10^{-9}m$

The location of the first intensity minima is given by

$y=\frac{L\lambda}{a}$

where in this case we have

$y=0.492 cm = 4.92\cdot 10^{-3} m$

L = 1.091 is the distance between the detector and the slit

$a=2.00\mu m=2.00\cdot 10^{-6}m$ is the width of the slit

Solving the formula for $\lambda$ , we find the wavelength of the electrons in the beam:

$\lambda=\frac{ya}{L}=\frac{(4.92\cdot 10^{-3}m)(2.00\cdot 10^{-6} m)}{1.091 m}=9.02\cdot 10^{-9}m$

(D) $7.35\cdot 10^{-26}kg m/s$

The momentum of one of these electrons can be found by re-arranging the formula of the De Broglie wavelength:

$p=\frac{h}{\lambda}$

where here we have

$\lambda=9.02\cdot 10^{-9}m$ is the wavelength

Substituting into the formula, we find

$p=\frac{6.63\cdot 10^{-34}Js}{9.02\cdot 10^{-9}m}=7.35\cdot 10^{-26}kg m/s$

Aluminum reacts with sulfur gas to produce aluminum sulfide. a) What is the limiting reactant? What is the excess reagent? b) Ho

Sophie [7]

Answer:

a) Limiting: sulfur. Excess: aluminium.

b) 1.56g Al₂S₃.

c) 0.72g Al

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the initial mass of both aluminium and sulfur are missing, therefore, one could assume they are 1.00 g for each one. Thus, by considering the undergoing chemical reaction turns out:

$2Al(s)+3S_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2S_3(s)\\$

a) Thus, considering the assumed mass (which could be changed based on the one you are given), the limiting reagent is identified as shown below:

$n_S^{available}=1.00gS_2*\frac{1molS_2}{64gS_2} =0.0156molS_2\\n_S^{consumed\ by \ Al}=1.00gAl*\frac{1molAl}{27gAl}*\frac{3molS_2}{2molAl}=0.0556molS_2$

Thereby, since there 1.00g of aluminium will consume 0.0554 mol of sulfur but there are just 0.0156 mol available, the limiting reagent is sulfur and the excess reagent is aluminium.

b) By stoichiometry, the produced grams of aluminium sulfide are:

$m_{Al_2S_3}=0.0156molS_2*\frac{2molAl_2S_3}{3molS_2} *\frac{150gAl_2S_3}{1molAl_2S_3} =1.56gAl_2S_3$

c) The leftover is computed as follows:

$m_{Al}^{excess}=(0.0556-0.0156)molS_2*\frac{2molAl}{3molS_2}*\frac{27gAl}{1molAl} =0.72 gAl\\$

NOTE: Remember I assumed the quantities, they could change based on those you are given, so the results might be different, but the procedure is quite the same.

Best regards.
