Liquid making it the correct answer

Explanation:

In solids, molecules are held together due to strong intermolecular force of attraction between them. These molecules do not move past each other as they are fixed at their position. As a result, solids have definite shape and volume.

In liquids, molecules are less tightly held as a result the molecules are able to move and hence they slide past each other. Liquids do not have fixed shape and volume.

In gases, molecules are held by weak Vander waal forces. Therefore, they move rapidly from one place to another with more collisions.

Thus, we can conclude that liquid is the phase of matter which consists of particles that are held together but have the ability to flow past each other.

If 42 grams of carbon and 52 grams of oxygen are used, how many grams of CO2 will be produced (Hint: find the
zavuch27 [327]

Answer:

71.5g

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

               C  +  O₂  →  CO₂

Mass of C = 42g

Mass of O₂  = 52g

Unknown:

Mass of CO₂ produced  = ?

Solution

Now to solve this problem, we have to find limiting reactant which is the one given in short supply in this reaction.

 The extent of the reaction is controlled by this reactant.

Find the number of moles of the given species;

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

      Number of moles of C  = \frac{42}{12}   = 3.5mol

     Number of moles of O₂   = \frac{52}{32}   = 1.63mol

Now;

   From the balanced reaction equation;

           1 mole of C reacted with 1 mole of O₂

We see that C is in excess and O₂ is the limiting reactant.

            1 mole of O₂ will produce 1 mole of CO₂

 So;      1.63mole of O₂ will produce 1.63 mole of CO₂

Mass of CO₂ = number of moles x molar mass

       Molar mass of CO₂ = 44g/mol

Mass of CO₂ = 1.63 x 44 = 71.5g

How many grams of water are theoretically produced for the following reaction given we have 2.6 moles of HCl and 1.4 moles of Ca
leva [86]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: 6.8 g of water

Explanation:

Data

2.6 moles of HCl

1.4 moles of Ca(OH)2

                           2HCl     +     Ca(OH)2    →        2H2O    +      CaCl2

MW                   2(36.5)               74                       36 g               111 g

                          73g                

                            1 mol of HCl ----------------  36.5 g

                           2.6 mol           --------------    x

                              x = (2.6 x 36.5) / 1   = 94.9 g

                           1 mol of Ca(OH)2 --------------   74 g

                         1.4 mol                  ---------------   x

                            x = (1.4 x 74) / 1  = 103.6 g

Grams of water

                        73 g of HCl ------------------   36g of H2O

                        94.9 g        -------------------    x

                     x = (94.9 x 36) / 73 = 46.8 g of water

What can be said about the spontaneity of this reaction? cdiamond→cgraphite
anastassius [24]
The gibbs free energy of the reaction of diamond to graphite is equal to -2.90 kJ/mol. The free energy is negative which means that the reaction is spontaneous. Therefore, the forward reaction is favored. Hope this helps. Have a nice day.

Why rock from earth cannot be used to determine earth age<br>​
Reptile [31]

Answer:So far scientists have not found a way to determine the exact age of the Earth directly from Earth rocks because Earth's oldest rocks have been recycled and destroyed by the process of plate tectonics. If there are any of Earth's primordial rocks left in their original state, they have not yet been found.
