Inhalation is the process of taking air into the lungs. For this to occur, the air pressure inside the lungs must be lower than that of the external atmosphere as air flows from areas of higher pressure to lower pressure. <span>Exhalation is the process of expelling air out of the lungs. For this to occur, the air pressure inside the lungs must be higher than that of the external atmosphere as air flows from areas of higher pressure to ones of lower pressure.</span>

For the skeletal chemical equation BF3(g) + NaH(s) → B2H6(g) + NaF(s) what is the coefficient of B2H6 in the balanced equation?
KonstantinChe [14]

Answer:

Coefficient in front of the B_2H_6  in the balanced equation - 1

Explanation:

The unbalanced Chemical equation is shown below as:-

BF_3+NaH\rightarrow B_2H_6+NaF

On the left hand side,  

There are 1 boron atom and 3 fluorine atoms and 1 sodium and hydrogen atoms.

On the right hand side,  

There are 2 boron atoms and 6 hydrogen atoms and 1 sodium and fluorine atoms.

Thus,  

leftside, BF_3 must be multiplied by 2 to balance boron and right side, NaF must be multiplied by 6 to balance fluorine. Left side, NaH must be multiplied by 6 to balance sodium and hydrogen atoms.

Thus, the balanced reaction is:-

2BF_3+6NaH\rightarrow B_2H_6+6NaF

<u>Coefficient in front of the B_2H_6  in the balanced equation - 1</u>

How many grams of perchloric acid, HClO4, are contained in 39.1 g of 74.9 wt% aqueous perchloric acid
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

29.3 g HClO₄

Explanation:

We have 39.1 grams of 74.9 wt% aqueous perchloric acid solution, that is, there are 74.9 grams of perchloric acid in 100 grams of perchloric acid solution. The mass, in grams, of perchloric acid contained in 39.1 grams of perchloric acid solution is:

39.1 g Solution × (74.9 g HClO₄/100 g Solution) = 29.3 g HClO₄
