Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

The mechanical properties of a material affect how it behaves as it is loaded. The elastic modulus of the material affects how much it deflects under a load, and the strength of the material determines the stresses that it can withstand before it fails

Answer:

a) Neutralisation

b) Combustion

c) Synthesis

d) Decomposition

e) Neutralisation

f) Double Displacement Reaction

h) Single Displacement Reaction

i) Double Displacement Reaction

j) Combustion

Explanation:

Synthesis is a reaction where various compounds/ elements react to form a totally new compound.

Decomposition is a reaction where a single compound breaks down into several components due to excessive heating or energy applied.

Single Displacement Reaction is a type of chemical reaction where an element reacts with a compound and takes the place of another element in that compound.

Double Displacement Reaction is a type of chemical reaction where two compounds react, and the positive ions (cation) and the negative ions (anion) of the two reactants switch places, forming two new compounds or products.

Combustion is a reaction where a compound/ element oxidises in the presence of Oxygen.

Neutralisation reaction is a reaction where an acid reacts with a base to form a salt.

9. Using the balanced equation from Question #8, how many grams of lead will be produced if 2.54 grams of PbS is burned with 1.8

MissTica

Answer: 2.24 grams of Pb

Explanation:

Step 1

Balanced chemical reaction;

2PbS + 3O2 → 2Pb + 2SO3

Step 2

Moles of both PbS and O2

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles of PbS = 2.54 g / 239.3 g/mol = 0.0108 moles

Moles of O2 = 1.88 / 32 g/mol = 0.0588 moles

Step 3

Finding the limiting reactant.

Limiting reactant, is that reactant which is completely used in the reaction;

If we assume that PbS is the limiting reactant;

We have 0.0588 moles of O2. This needs ( 0.0588 * 2) / 3 = 0.0392 moles of PbS to fully react. But we have only 0.0108 moles of PbS available. That means that the PbS will be completely consumed hence the limiting reactant

If we assume O2 is the limiting reactant;

We have 0.0108 moles of PbS. That needs ( 0.0108 * 3) / 2 = 0.0162 moles of O2. But we have 0.0588 moles of O2 which is in excess further confirming that PbS is the limiting reactant since it will be depleted in the reaction.

Step 4

Moles of lead

For this step we apply the mole ratios with the limiting reactant;

Mole ratio of PbS : Pb = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1

Therefore;

Moles of Pb = (0.0108 moles * 1 ) 1

Moles of Pb =0.0108 moles

Step 5

Mass of Pb

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass of Pb =0.0108 moles * 207.2 g/mol

Mass of Pb = 2.24 grams

A 0.590 gram sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to:M(s) +H2SO4(aq) --> MSO4(aq) +H2(g)A vol

photoshop1234 [79]

Answer:

MM = 58.41 g

Explanation:

First, the data we have is according to the hydrogen which is exerting pressure. To solve this, we need to use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT (1)

the molar mass of any compound is calculated like this:

MM = m/n (2)

So, from (1) we solve for the moles (n) and then, this value is replace in (2).

However, before we do all that, we need to gather all the correct data.

All the species in the reaction are solid or aqueous state, with the exception of hydrogen, which is gaseous. Hydrogen is collected over water, therefore, is exerting some pressure too. The problem is not indicating if the acid or any other species is exerting pressure, so we will assume that only hydrogen and water are exerting pressure.

The total pressure exerted by the system would be:

P = Pw + PH2 (3)

We already know the total pressure which is 756 torr.

This experiment is taking place at 25 °C (298.15 K), and at this temperature, we have a reported value for water pressure which is 23.8 Torr.

Let's solve for PH2:

PH2 = P - Pw

PH2 = 756 - 23 = 733 Torr

Now, with this value, and the volume and temperature, we can calculate the moles of H2:

n = PV/RT

But first, let's convert the pressure to atm:

PH2 = 733 Torr / 760 torr * 1 atm = 0.9644 atm

now, solving for n:

n = 0.9644 * (0.255) / 0.082 * 298.15

n = 0.0101 moles

Now that we have the moles, we know that the metal and the hydrogen has a mole ratio of 1:1 according to the reaction, so, this means that:

moles M = moles H2 = 0.0101 moles

We have the moles of the metal and the mass, we can calculate the molar mass using expression (2):

MM = 0.590/0.0101

MM = 58.41 g/mol

This is the molar mass of the metal
