Answer:

-85 °C

Explanation:

O and S are in the same group( Group 16). Since S is below O it's atomic mass is higher than O. So molar mass of H2S is higher than H2O. The strength of Vanderwaal Interactions ( London dispersion forces) increases when the molar mass increases. However, only H2O can form H bonds with each other. This is because electronegativity of O is higher than S and therefore H in H2O has a higher partial positive charge than H of H2S.

H bond dominate among these 2 types of forces so the strength of attractions between molecules is higher in H2O than H2S. Therefore more energy should be supplied for H2O to break inter

molecular forces and convert from solid to liquid state than H2S. So mpt of H2O must be higher than that of H2S.

9. Write a balanced nuclear equation for the following: The isotope Strontium-90 decays by Q-
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: _{38}^{90}\textrm{Sr}\rightarrow _{36}^{86}\textrm{Kr}+_2^4\textrm{He}

Explanation:

Alpha Decay: In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into lighter nuclei by releasing alpha particle. The mass number is reduced by 4 units and atomic number is reduced by 2 units.

General representation of an element is given as:   _Z^A\textrm{X}

where,

Z represents Atomic number

A represents Mass number

X represents the symbol of an element

General representation of alpha decay :

_Z^A\textrm{Sr}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}Y+_2^4\alpha

The  balanced nuclear equation when the isotope Strontium-90 decays by Q-  decay is :

_{38}^{90}\textrm{Sr}\rightarrow _{36}^{86}\textrm{Kr}+_2^4\textrm{He}

According to the below equation, how many moles of SO2 are required to generate 1.43×1024 water molecules?
podryga [215]
Make sure the equation is always balanced first. (It is balanced for this question already) 6.022 x 10^23 is Avogadro’s number. In one mole of anything there is always 6.022 x 10^23 molecules, formula units, atoms. For one mol of an element/ compound use molar mass (grams).

Multiply everything on the top = 8.61x10^47
Multiple everything on bottom= 1.20x10^24
Divide top and bottom = 7.15x10^23

Answer: 7.15x10^23 mol SO2

The Nuremberg War Crimes trials established
ra1l [238]
The Nuremberg War Crimes trials established the international legal precedent that individuals who violate human rights can be held responsible for their actions. The correct option in regards to all the options given in the question is option "2". The Nuremberg trials were held against the Germans by the Allied forces against the war crimes done by the Germans during World War II. Many of the allied countries were in favor of killing the war criminals before any trial, but ultimately the trial was held and the criminals were either hanged to death of were killed by the firing squad.

In aqueous solution, hypobromite ion, BrO-, reacts to produce bromate ion, BrO3 -, and bromide ion, Br-, according to the follow
maw [93]

Answer:

22.73s

Explanation:

The reaction is a second order reaction, we know this by observing the unit of the slope.

rate constant = k = 0.056 M-1s-1

the initial concentration of BrO- [A]o = 0.80 M

time = ?

Final concentration [A]t= one-half of 0.80 M = 0.40M

1 / [A]t = kt + 1 / [A]o

1 / 0.40 = 0.056 * t + 1 / 0.80

t = (2.5 - 1.25) / 0.056

t = 22.73s
