How do we think that Mars lost atmospheric gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
grin007 [14]2 years ago

the rocky planet was exposed to harsh and forceful solar winds, which blew the Martian atmosphere away.

Another option for thickening the atmosphere of Mars, and, in turn, raising the temperature of the planet, would be to set up solar-powered, greenhouse-gas producing factories.

A hot lump of 39.9 g of iron at an initial temperature of 78.1 °C is placed in 50.0 mL H 2 O initially at 25.0 °C and allowed to
Drupady [299]

Answer : The final temperature of the mixture is 29.6^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that heat given by the hot body is equal to the heat taken by the cold body.

q_1=-q_2

m_1\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m_2\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

where,

c_1 = specific heat of iron = 0.499J/g^oC

c_2 = specific heat of water = 4.18J/g^oC

m_1 = mass of iron = 39.9 g

m_2 = mass of water  = Density\times Volume=1g/mL\times 50.0mL=50.0g

T_f = final temperature of mixture = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of iron = 78.1^oC

T_2 = initial temperature of water = 25.0^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

(39.9g)\times (0.499J/g^oC)\times (T_f-78.1)^oC=-(50.0g)\times 4.18J/g^oC\times (T_f-25.0)^oC

T_f=29.6^oC

Therefore, the final temperature of the mixture is 29.6^oC

Assuming it behaves as an ideal gas, calculate the density of sulfur dioxide, so2, at stp.
Arisa [49]
Hello!

At Standard Pressure and Temperature, an ideal gas has a molar density of  0,04464 mol/L.

So, we need to apply a simple conversion factor to calculate the density of Sulfur Dioxide using the molar mass of Sulfur Dioxide.

\frac{0,04464 mol SO_2}{1 L SO_2}* \frac{64,066 g SO_2}{1 mol SO_2}=2,8599 g/L

So, the Density of Sulfur Dioxide (SO₂) at STP is 2,8599 g/L

Have a nice day!

A

Solution:

1) Separate out the half-reactions. The only issue is that there are three of them.

<span>Fe2+ ---> Fe3+ 
S2¯ ---> SO42¯ 
NO3¯ ---> NO</span>

How did I recognize there there were three equations? The basic answer is "by experience." The detailed answer is that I know the oxidation states of all the elements on EACH side of the original equation. By knowing this, I am able to determine that there were two oxidations (the Fe going +2 to +3 and the S going -2 to +6) with one reduction (the N going +5 to +2).

Notice that I also split the FeS apart rather than write one equation (with FeS on the left side). I did this for simplicity showing the three equations. I know to split the FeS apart because it has two "things" happening to it, in this case it is two oxidations.

Normally, FeS does not ionize, but I can get away with it here because I will recombine the Fe2+ with the S2¯ in the final answer. If I do everything right, I'll get a one-to-one ratio of Fe2+ to S2¯ in the final answer.

2) Balancing all half-reactions in the normal manner.

<span>Fe2+ ---> Fe3+ + e¯ 
4H2O + S2¯ ---> SO42¯ + 8H+ + 8e¯ 
3e¯ + 4H+ + NO3¯ ---> NO + 2H2O</span>

3) Equalize the electrons on each side of the half-reactions. Please note that the first two half-reactions (both oxidations) total up to nine electrons. Consequently, a factor of three is needed for the third equation, the only one shown below:

<span>3 [3e¯ + 4H+ + NO3¯ ---> NO + 2H2O]</span>

Adding up the three equations will be left as an exercise for the reader. With the FeS put back together, the sum of all the coefficients (including any that are one) in the correct answer is 15.

Problem #2: CrI3 + Cl2 ---> CrO42¯ + IO4¯ + Cl¯ [basic sol.]

Solution:

Go to this video for the solution

Problem #3: Sb2S3 + Na2CO3 + C ---> Sb + Na2S + CO

Solution:

1) Remove all the spectator ions:

<span>Sb26+ + CO32- + C ---> Sb + CO</span>

Notice that I did not write Sb3+. I did this to keep the correct ratio of Sb as reactant and product. It also turns out that it will have a benefit when I select factors to multiply through some of the half-reactions. I didn't realize that until after the solution was done.

2) Separate into half-reactions:

<span>Sb26+ ---> Sb 
CO32- ---> CO 
C ---> CO</span>

3) Balance as if in acidic solution:

<span>6e¯ + Sb26+ ---> 2Sb 
2e¯ + 4H+ + CO32- ---> CO + 2H2O 
H2O + C ---> CO + 2H+ + 2e¯Could you balance in basic? I suppose, but why?</span>

4) Use a factor of three on the second half-reaction and a factor of six on the third.

<span>6e¯ + Sb26+ ---> 2Sb 
3 [2e¯ + 4H+ + CO32- ---> CO + 2H2O] 
6 [H2O + C ---> CO + 2H+ + 2e¯]The key is to think of 12 and its factors (1, 2, 3, 4, 6). You need to make the electrons equal on both sides (and there are 12 on each side when the half-reactions are added together). You get 12 H+ on each side (3 x 4 in the second and 6 x 2 in the third). You get six waters with 3 x 2 in the second and 6 x 1 in the third.Everything that needs to cancel gets canceled!</span>

5) The answer (with spectator ions added back in):

<span>Sb2S3 + 3Na2CO3 + 6C ---> 2Sb + 3Na2S + 9CO</span>

6) Here's a slightly different take on the solution just presented.

<span>a) Write the net ionic equation:<span>Sb26+ + CO32- + C ---> Sb + CO</span>b) Notice that charges must be balanced and that we have zero charge on the right. So, do this:<span>Sb26+ + 3CO32- + C ---> Sb + CO</span>c) Now, balance for atoms:<span>Sb26+ + 3CO32- + 6C ---> 2Sb + 9CO</span>d) Add back the sodium ions and sulfide ions to recover the molecular equation.<span>Sb2S3 + 3Na2CO3 + 6C ---> 2Sb + 3Na2S + 9CO</span></span>

7) Here's a discussion of a wrong answer to the above problem.

However, after reading the above wrong answer example, look at problem #10 below for an instance of having to add in a substance not included in the original reaction.

Problem #4: CrI3 + H2O2 ---> CrO42¯ + IO4¯ [basic sol.]

Solution:

1) write the half-reactions:

<span>Cr3+ ---> CrO42¯ 
I33¯ ---> IO4¯ 
H2O2 ---> H2O</span>

I wrote the iodide as I33¯ to make it easier to recombine it with the chromium ion at the end of the problem.

2) Balance as if in acidic solution:

<span>4H2O + Cr3+ ---> CrO42¯ + 8H+ + 3e¯ 
12H2O + I33¯ ---> 3IO4¯ + 24H+ + 24e¯ 
2e¯ + 2H+ + H2O2 ---> 2H2O</span>

I used water as the product for the hydrogen peroxide half-reaction because that gave me a half-reaction in acid solution. It will all go back to basic at the end of the problem.

3) Recover CrI3 by combining the first two half-reactions from just above:

<span>16H2O + CrI3 ---> 3IO4¯ + CrO42¯ + 32H+ + 27e¯</span>

4) Equalize the electrons:

<span>2 [16H2O + CrI3 ---> 3IO4¯ + CrO42¯ + 32H+ + 27e¯] 
27 [2e¯ + 2H+ + H2O2 ---> 2H2O]leads to:32H2O + 2CrI3 ---> 6IO4¯ + 2CrO42¯ + 64H+ + 54e¯ 
54e¯ + 54H+ + 27H2O2 ---> 54H2O</span>

5) Add the half-reactions together. Strike out (1) electrons, (2) hydrogen ion and (3) water. The result:

<span>2CrI3 + 27H2O2 ---> 2CrO42¯ + 6IO4¯ + 10H+ + 22H2O</span>

6) Add 10 hydroxides to each side. This makes 10 more waters on the right, so combine with the water alreadyon the right-hand side to make 32:

<span>2CrI3 + 27H2O2 + 10OH¯ ---> 2CrO42¯ + 6IO4¯ + 32H2O</span>
