Metal oxides react with carbon and are reduced to the metal. The metal in the reaction above is copper.

The equation of the reaction is;

2MO(s) + C(s) -> 2M(s) + CO2(g)

We are told in the question that carbon is in excess so the metal oxide is the limiting reactant.

Number of moles of metal oxide = 34.49 g/M + 16

From PV = nRT

P = 1.50 atm

V = 4.42 L

T =  100°C + 273  = 373 K

n =?

R = 0.082 atmLK-1mol-1

n = PV/RT

n = 1.50 atm ×  4.42 L/0.082 atmLK-1mol-1 × 373 K

n = 6.63/30.58

=0.217 moles

If 2 moles of metal oxide yields 1 mole of CO2

34.49 g/M + 16 yields 0.217 moles of CO2

34.49 g/M + 16 = 2 × 0.217

34.49 /M + 16 = 0.434

34.49 = 0.434(M + 16)

34.49 = 0.434M + 6.944

M = 34.49 -  6.944/0.434

M = 63.5

The metal is copper.

How might an increasing population of robins positively and negatively affect a community?
Oliga [24]

All populations of living things are interrelated. When one population of animals, plants, or insects increase or decrease, other populations of living things are also affected. For example, when shrubs and brushy areas are removed from an ecosystem, the rabbit population will likely go down. The reduced rabbit population will lower predator populations that use rabbits as a food source.

In another example, let's assume all the dead hollow trees are removed from a forest ecosystem. Cavity nesting animals such as bluebirds, nuthatch, wrens, screech owls, squirrels and woodpeckers have very little, if any, shelter available. The number of animals of this type would be reduced. Insect populations could increase because of fewer insect eating birds and trees and other plants could be negatively affected. The whole ecosystem is affected.

The amount of suitable habitat for a species of wildlife will determine the number of animals that can survive in the area. Human activity has the greatest impact on the amount and quality of wildlife habitat in Illinois. Wildlife habitat can be destroyed or its quality diminished as a result of urban sprawl, agricultural practices, pollution, sedimentation, or habitat fragmentation.

People can also have a positive impact on wildlife populations through improvement and protection of habitat or ecosystems. The planting of trees and shrubs, as well as wildlife food plots, in the appropriate locations is one way landowners can improve wildlife habitat. People can protect ponds, streams, rivers and wetlands from sedimentation by reducing soil erosion on lands surrounding these aquatic ecosystems. Nesting boxes placed in ecosystems that lack dead, hollow trees will enhance the habitat for cavity nesting animals. There are many things people can do to improve habitat for wildlife.

There are a number of natural resource management agencies in Illinois that can help people enhance and protect wildlife habitat. Listed below are a few of the public agencies which can provide ecosystem management expertise to people in Illinois.

On the axes provided, label pressure on the horizontal axis from O mb to 760 mb and volume on the vertical axis from O to 1 mL.
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

  • Please, find the graph with the labels and points located on the axes in the picture attached.

Explanation:

This is how you meet all the instructions and some important comments to understand how this kind of graphs word:

<u>1) Label pressure on the horizontal axis from O mb to 760 mb and volume on the vertical axis from O to 1 mL. </u>

The horizontal axis is used to record the independent variable and the vertical axis is used to record the dependent variable. The axes most be properly labeled with the name of the variable and the units.

In this case the origin is the point (0,0) which means that the axes cross each other, perpendicularly, at a pressure of 0 mb and a volume of 0.0 mililiters.

<u>2) Assign values to axes divisions in such a way that you occupy almost all the space on both axes. </u>

A good graph searches to occupy the whole space on both cases; to do that, find the maximum value for each variable, pressure and volume, and choose the values of the marks.

The range of the pressure (horizontal axis) is [90, 760 mb], so you should choose big divisions (marks) of 100 mb, and assign 800 mb to the right most mark on the horizontal axis. Then, you can divide each interval of 100 mb into 10 spaces, with small divisions of 10 mb (my graph uses 4 spcaes, with small divisions of 25 mb, but I recommend you use small divisions of 10 mb).

The range of the volume (vertical axis) is [0.1, 0.8], so you should choose only divisions with value of 0.1 ml.

<u>3) Now locate and label the points: </u>

  • (90, 0.9) ⇒ 90 mb, 0.9 ml
  • (100, 0.8) ⇒ 100 mb, 0.8 ml
  • (400, 0.2) ⇒ 400 mb, 0.2 ml
  • (600, 0.15) ⇒ 600 mb, 0.15 ml
  • (760, 0.1) ⇒ 760 mb, 0.1 ml

The points of the kind (x, y) are called ordered pairs, which means that the order matters, because it has a meaning: the first number represents the independent variable and the second number represents the dependent variable.

So, in the point (90, 0.9), 90 is a pressure of 90 mb and 0.9 is a volume of 0.9 ml.

To locate (600, 0.15), since the horizontal marks have value of 0.1, you must locate the second coordinate of your point between the marks 0.1 and 0.2 ml.

With that you can now locate each point on your graph.

A blank is 2 or more substances that are together in the same place but are not chemically combined.
hammer [34]

A mixture is a material system made up of two or more different substances, which are mixed but not combined chemically. A mixture refers to the physical combination of two or more substances in which the identities of the individual substances are retained.

Hope this helps!
