Hi there!

Deep sea divers CANNOT use pure oxygen in their tanks. Pure oxygen is deadly, and can kill them. This would be called Oxygen toxicity

Hope this helps you!

How many moles of hydrogen molecules (h2) are present in 9 x 1023 molecules of hydrogen?

Marta_Voda [28]

Hello

So the molar mass of a Hydrogen molecule is 2. If you have 10 grams of Hydrogen molecules, you have 5 moles of Hydrogen molecules (10 moles of Hydrogen atoms). Avogadro's number is 6.0225x10^23. This means that one mole of a substance has that many particles.

Have a nice day

Answer: The ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 :31

Explanation:

Combustion is a chemical reaction in which hydrocarbons are burnt in the presence of oxygen to give carbon dioxide and water.

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced combustion reaction is,:

$2C_{10}H_{22}(l)+31O_2(g)\rightarrow 20CO_2(g)+22H_2O(g)$

Thus the ratio of carbon dioxide molecules to oxygen molecules is 20 : 31

Why are group 1 elements more reactive than group 2 elements?

kaheart [24]

Less reactive than Group I elements. The reasoning for this is because it is more difficult to lose two electrons compared to losing just one electron. They mostly React with water to form alkaline solutions. ...Now This is because the smaller an atom the closer the outer electrons are to the nucleus.
