Which statement best describes the formula equation cl1(g) + 2kbr(aq) —> 2kcl(aq)+br2(i)

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The chlorine gas and potassium bromide solution react to form liquid bromine and potassium chloride solution.

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Cl₂(g) + KBr (aq) → KCl (aq) + Br₂(l)

Balanced chemical equation:

Cl₂(g) + 2KBr (aq) → 2KCl (aq) + Br₂(l)

This equation showed that the chlorine gas and potassium bromide solution react to form liquid bromine and potassium chloride solution.

Chlorine is more reactive than bromine it displace the bromine from potassium and form potassium chloride solution.

The given equation is balanced and completely hold the law of conservation of mass.

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

Explanation:

This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.

A river with a flow of 50 m3/s discharges into a lake with a volume of 15,000,000 m3. The river has a background pollutant conce

spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

Volume of lake = $15 \times 10^{6} m^{3}$ = $15 \times 10^{6} m^{3} \times \frac{10^{3} liter}{1 m^{3}}$

Concentration of lake = 5.6 mg/l

Total amount of pollutant present in lake = $5.6 \times 15 \times 10^{9} mg$

= $84 \times 10^{9}$ mg

= $84 \times 10^{3}$ kg

Flow rate of river is 50 $m^{3} sec^{-1}$

Volume of water in 1 day = $50 \times 10^{3} \times 86400 liter$

= $432 \times 10^{7}$ liter

Concentration of river is calculated as 5.6 mg/l. Total amount of pollutants present in the lake are $2.9792 \times 10^{10} mg$ or $2.9792 \times 10^{4} kg$
