Why is carbon used to extract metals from their oxides? ​

Chemistry
1 answer:
pashok25 [27]3 years ago

Answer:

If a metal is less reactive than carbon, it can be extracted from its oxide by heating with carbon. The carbon displaces the metal from the compound, and removes the oxygen from the oxide. This leaves the metal.

how many grams of calcium sulfate are produced from 10 grams of calcium nitrate and how many grams of calcium sulfate are produc
AlekseyPX

Answer:  8.30 g of calcium sulfate are produced from 10 grams of lithium sulfate.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Ca(NO_3)_2=\frac{10g}{164g/mol}=0.061moles

\text{Moles of} Li_2SO_4=\frac{10g}{110g/mol}=0.091moles

Ca(NO_3)_2+Li_2SO_4\rightarrow 2LiNO_3+CaSO_4  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of Ca(NO_3)_2 require = 1 mole of Li_2SO_4

Thus 0.061 moles of Ca(NO_3)_2 will require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.061=0.061moles  of Li_2SO_4

Thus Ca(NO_3)_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Li_2SO_4 is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of Ca(NO_3)_2 give = 1 mole of CaSO_4

Thus 0.061 moles of Ca(NO_3)_2 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.061=0.061moles  of CaSO_4

Mass of CaSO_4=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.061moles\times 136g/mol=8.30g

Thus 8.30 g of calcium sulfate are produced from 10 grams of lithium sulfate.

Which higher heat transfer ?
stellarik [79]

Answer:

<u>b)boiling water</u>

Explanation:

  • High heat is transferred with the thermal conduction process, also called diffusion. Always occurs from a region of higher temperatures to a region of lower temperatures. The flow of fluid may be forced into external processes.
  • As the particles rapidly move and vibrate and the transfer of heat from one state to the other by the interaction of particles and rate of heat lost has to be the same as absorbed heat during vaporization at the same fluid pressure.
  • A component of heat transfer can be seen as a heat sink in which transfers the heat generated within any medium. Thus evaporative cooling happens after the vapor is added to the surrounding air.
