About how many harvests of bamboo can be collected during the time it takes to fully grow one pine tree?

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

bamboo can grow 910 mm (36 in) within a 24-hour period,at a rate of almost 40 mm (1 1⁄2 in) an hour (a growth around 1 mm every 90 seconds, or 1 inch {2.54 centimeters} every 40 minutes).

Complete and balance the reaction in acidic solution. equation: ZnS + NO_{3}^{-} -> Zn^{2+} + S + NO ZnS+NO−3⟶Zn2++S+NO Which

kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Balanced reaction: $3ZnS+2NO_{3}^{-}+8H^{+}\rightarrow 3Zn^{2+}+3S+2NO+4H_{2}O$

S is oxidized and N is reduced.

$NO_{3}^{-}$ is the oxidizing agent and ZnS is the reducing agent.

Explanation:

Reaction: $ZnS+NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S+NO$

$\Rightarrow$ Oxidation: $ZnS\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S$

Balance charge: $ZnS-2e^{-}\rightarrow Zn^{2+}+S$ ...............(1)

$\Rightarrow$ Reduction: $NO_{3}^{-}\rightarrow NO$

Balance H and O in acidic medium : $NO_{3}^{-}+4H^{+}\rightarrow NO+2H_{2}O$

Balance charge: $NO_{3}^{-}+4H^{+}+3e^{-}\rightarrow NO+2H_{2}O$ ...............(2)

[ $3\times$ Equation-(1)] + [ $2\times$ Equation-(2)]:

$3ZnS+2NO_{3}^{-}+8H^{+}\rightarrow 3Zn^{2+}+3S+2NO+4H_{2}O$

Oxidation number of S increases from (-2) to (0) for the conversion of ZnS to S. Therefore S is oxidized.

Oxidation number of N decreases from (+5) to (+2) for the conversion of $NO_{3}^{-}$ to NO. Therefore N is reduced.

$NO_{3}^{-}$ consumes electron from ZnS. Therefore $NO_{3}^{-}$ is the oxidizing agent and ZnS is the reducing agent.

The average mass of all fluorine (F) atoms is 18.998 u.Do you think most fluorine atoms have 9 neutrons or 10 neutrons? Explain.

hodyreva [135]

Answer:

10 neutrons

Explanation:

The mass of is made up of the total protons and neutrons in an atom.

Each particle has a mass of 1 amu (atomic mass unit).

All fluorine atoms have 9 protons.

If each proton is 1 amu, the protons must contribute 9 amu to the total mass of the atom (9 x 1 amu = 9 amu).

This means the neutrons must contribute a total mass of 10 amu (18.998 amu - 9 amu = ~10 amu).

If each neutron has a mass of 1 amu, there must be 10 neutrons in a fluorine atom (10 amu / 1 amu = 10 amu).

You conduct an experiment that requires the creation of an ammonia solution. You do this by reacting 50.0 L of nitrogen gas with

ozzi

Answer : The molarity of the resulting ammonia solution is, 0.89 M

Explanation :

The balanced chemical reaction is:

$N_2(g)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2NH_3(g)$

First we have to calculate the moles of nitrogen gas.

As we know that at STP, 1 mole of gas occupies 22.4 L volume of gas.

As, 22.4 L volume of nitrogen gas present in 1 moles of nitrogen gas

So, 50.0 L volume of nitrogen gas present in $\frac{50.0}{22.4}=2.23$ moles of nitrogen gas

Thus, the moles of nitrogen gas is 2.23 moles.

Now we have to calculate the moles of ammonia gas.

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 mole of $N_2$ react to give 2 mole of $NH_3$

So, 2.23 moles of $N_2$ react to give $2.23\times 2=4.46$ moles of $NH_3$

Now we have to calculate the molarity of the resulting ammonia solution.

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of volume of solution.

Formula used :

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Moles of ammonia}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get:

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{4.46mole}{5.0L}$

$\text{Molarity}=0.89M$

Therefore, the molarity of the resulting ammonia solution is, 0.89 M
