Answer:

The H—C—H bond angle in methane is the tetrahedral angle, 109.5°. This angle is obtained when all four pairs of outer electrons repel each other equally. The bond angles in water is less than 109.5° because of the stronger repulsion by their lone pairs of electrons.

In a mixture of hydrogen and nitrogen gases, the mole fraction of nitrogen is 0.333. If the partial pressure of hydrogen in the

Answer:

P_T=112.4torr

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since these problems about gas mixtures are based off Dalton's law in terms of mole fraction, partial pressure and total pressure, we can write the following for hydrogen, we are given its partial pressure:

P_{H_2}=x_{H_2}*P_T

And can be solved for the total pressure as follows:

P_T=\frac{P_{H_2}}{x_{H_2}}

However, we first calculate the mole fraction of hydrogen by subtracting that of nitrogen to 1 due to:

x_{H_2}+x_{N_2}=1\\\\x_{H_2}=1-0.333=0.667

Then, we can plug in to obtain the total pressure:

P_T=\frac{75.0torr}{0.667}\\\\P_T=112.4torr

Regards!

Consider the reaction: 2A(g)+B(g)→3C(g). When A is changing at a rate of -0.110M⋅s−1, How fast is C increasing?
mr_godi [17]
From the reaction above, the rate is given by the following formula:
r = -(1/2) dA / dt = - dB / dt = (1/3) dC/ dt
Note that A and B charge is negative due to they decrease with time
given dA / dt = -0.110 M/s
hence dB / dt = -0.110 / 2 = -0.055 M/s
dC / dt = (-3/2) (-0.110) = 0.165 M/s

How many grams of iron can be made with 21.5g of Fe2O3
SIZIF [17.4K]

The mass (in grams) of iron, Fe that can be made from 21.5 g of Fe₂O₃ is 15.04 g

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2Fe₂O₃ -> 4Fe + 3O₂

  • Molar mass of Fe₂O₃ = 159.7 g/mol
  • Mass of Fe₂O₃ from the balanced equation = 2 × 159.7 = 319.4 g
  • Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol
  • Mass of Fe from the balanced equation = 4 × 55.85 = 223.4 g

From the balanced equation above,

319.4 g of Fe₂O₃ decomposed to produce 223.4 g of Fe

<h3>How to determine the mass of iron, Fe produced</h3>

From the balanced equation above,

319.4 g of Fe₂O₃ decomposed to produce 223.4 g of Fe

Therefore,

21.5 g of Fe₂O₃ will decompose to produce = (21.5 × 223.4) / 319.4 = 15.04 g of Fe

Thus, 15.04 g of Fe were produced.
