Environmental Chemistry studies the health hazards associated with lead, which  is dangerous to humans.

Environmental Chemistry studies chemicals present in air, water and soil and their  impact on humans and their environment.

Now, it was discovered that even low doses of lead particles in the paint when inhaled or ingested caused damaging effect to the body  such as Impaired balance, seizures, ataxia and even death.

With the role of Environmental chemists in thier research and findings, the world has been informed on the negative effect on the expose of lead and other heavy metals like it  to man and his environment.

During a combustion reaction, 9.00 grams of oxygen reacted with 3.00 grams of CH4.
Monica [59]

Answer:

0.74 grams of methane

Explanation:

The balanced equation of the combustion reaction of methane with oxygen is:

  • CH₄ + 2 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 H₂O

it is clear that 1 mol of CH₄ reacts with 2 mol of O₂.

firstly, we need to calculate the number of moles of both

for CH₄:

number of moles = mass / molar mass = (3.00 g) /  (16.00 g/mol) = 0.1875 mol.

for O₂:

number of moles = mass / molar mass = (9.00 g) /  (32.00 g/mol) = 0.2812 mol.

  • it is clear that O₂ is the limiting reactant and methane will leftover.

using cross multiplication

1 mol of  CH₄ needs → 2 mol of O₂

???  mol of  CH₄  needs → 0.2812 mol of O₂

∴ the number of mol of CH₄ needed = (0.2812 * 1) / 2 = 0.1406 mol

so 0.14 mol will react and the remaining CH₄

mol of CH₄ left over = 0.1875 -0.1406 = 0.0469 mol

now we convert moles into grams

mass of CH₄ left over = no. of mol of CH₄ left over *  molar mass

                                    = 0.0469 mol * 16 g/mol = 0.7504 g

So, the right choice is 0.74 grams of methane

Question
madam [21]

Answer:

The specific heat of the metal is 2.09899 J/g℃.

Explanation:

Given,

For Metal sample,

mass = 13 grams

T = 73°C

For Water sample,

mass = 60 grams

T = 22°C.

When the metal sample and water sample are mixed,

The addition of metal increases the temperature of the water, as the metal is at higher temperature, and the  addition of water decreases the temperature of metal. Therefore, heat lost by metal is equal to the heat gained by water.

Since, heat lost by metal is equal to the heat gained by water,

Qlost = Qgain

However,

Q = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

(mass) (ΔT) (Cp) = (mass) (ΔT) (Cp)

After mixing both samples, their temperature changes to 27°C.

It implies that , water sample temperature changed from  22°C to 27°C and metal sample temperature changed from 73°C to 27°C.

Since, Specific heat of water = 4.184 J/g°C

Let Cp be the specific heat of the metal.

Substituting values,

(13)(73°C - 27°C)(Cp) = (60)(27°C - 22℃)(4.184)

By solving, we get Cp =

Therefore, specific heat of the metal sample is 2.09899 J/g℃.

What is defined as the number of atoms surrounding an atom in a crystal lattice?
Simora [160]

Answer:

coordination number

Explanation:

Coordination number -

In a crystal lattice , the number of atoms that are surrounded to a particular atom , is referred to as the coordination number of the crystal.

In the field of crystallography and chemistry , it is also called the ligancy.

In coordination chemistry , the number of ligands attached to the central metal atom is also known as the coordination number of the coordination compound.

Hence, from the given statement of the question,

The correct term is coordination number.
