Mekhanik [1.2K]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

171 moles of sodium chloride

Explanation:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of sodium chloride = 58.5 g/mol

mass of sodium chloride = 10 Kg or 10,000 g

Now, to obtain the number of moles of sodium chloride;

Number of moles = 10,000 g/58.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 171 moles of sodium chloride

Many homeowners treat their lawns with CaCO3(s) to reduce the acidity of the soil. Write a net ionic equation for the reaction o
Agata [3.3K]

The reaction of acid, assuming HCl and calcium carbonate always produces a gas. The reaction is as follows:
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3 
H2CO3, carbonic acid, is a weak acid that is unstable in water solutions at high concentrations. As such, it decomposes: 
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2 
Then, 
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2 
The total ionic equation looks as follows: 
2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g) 
Clearly, Cl- is a spectator ion as it is unchanged in the reaction. The net ionic reaction looks as follows: 
2 H+(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)

How many seconds would it take to deposit 17.3 g of ag (atomic mass = 107.87) from a solution of agno3 using a current of 10.00
Brums [2.3K]
Data Given:

Time = t = ?

Current = I = 10 A

Faradays Constant = F = 96500

Chemical equivalent = e = 107.86/1 = 107.86 g

Amount Deposited = W = 17.3 g

Solution:
             According to Faraday's Law,

                                          W  =  I t e / F

Solving for t,

                                          t  =  W F / I e
Putting values,
                                          t  =  (17.3 g × 96500) ÷ (10 A × 107.86 g)

                                          t  =  1547.79 s

                                          t  = 1.54 × 10³ s

Explain how the understanding of penetrating power can be used to protect yourself from different types of ionizing radiation.
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Radiation is energy. It can come from unstable atoms that undergo radioactive decay, or it can be produced by machines. Radiation travels from its source in the form of energy waves or energized particles. There are different forms of radiation and they have different properties and effects.
