Imagine you are working in the lab and your chemical bottle is labeled Fe2O3. Explain how you could

1 answer:

3 0

To determine the charge of the iron, you must know the charge from the oxygen. An oxygen ion has a -2 charge. Therefore, 3 oxygen ions have -6 charge. We know that charges must cancel out. If it were Fe+2 in the compound, the overall charge would be -2, which isn’t correct. So, we can conclude that it is Fe+3 found in iron (III) oxide.

Compare urban and rural land .how are each used?

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

"Urban area is used for the buildings, industries etc, whereas the rural areas are used for cultivation, forest cover etc."

Explanation:

When we talk about the urban land they are mostly covered with buildings, industries, roads and apartments and also the municipal structures. But when we talk about the rural land it has less dense population with forest cover, agricultural lands, rangeland and also different land cover type. In the urban areas the population density is very high. Those areas that located in the outskirt of the town are the rural areas.

Suppose you have 100 grams of radioactive plutonium-239 with a half-life of 24,000 years. how many grams of plutonium-239 will r

Alexandra [31]

To solve this problem, let us first calculate for the rate constant k using the half life formula:

t1/2 = ln 2 / k

where t1/2 = half life period = 24,000 years, therefore k is:

k = ln 2 / 24,000

k = 2.89 x 10^-5 / yr

Now we use the rate equation:

A = Ao e^(-k t)

where,

A = mass of Plutonium-239 after number of years

Ao = initial mass of Plutonium-239

t = number of years

A. t = 12,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 12,000)

A = 70.7 g

B. t = 24,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 24,000)

A = 50 g

C. t = 96,000 years, find A

A = 100g e^(- 2.89 x 10^-5 * 96,000)

The following reaction produces ethanoic acid (CHACOOH) from methanol (CH3OH) and carbon

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{300 g}}$

Explanation:

We will need a balanced chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

M_r: 32 60

CH₃OH + CO ⟶ CH₃COOH

m/g: 160

(a) Moles of CH₃OH

$\text{Moles of CH$_{3}$OH} = \text{160 g CH$_{3}$OH }\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$OH }}{\text{32 g CH$_{3}$OH}}= \text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$OH}$

(b) Moles of CH₃COOH

$\text{Moles of CH$_{3}$COOH} = \text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$OH } \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$COOH}}{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$OH }} = \text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$COOH}$

(c) Mass of CH₃COOH

$\text{Mass of CH$_{3}$COOH} =\text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$COOH} \times \dfrac{\text{60 g CH$_{3}$COOH}}{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$COOH}} = \textbf{300 g CH$_{3}$COOH}\\\\\text{The maximum mass of ethanoic acid that can be produced is $\boxed{\textbf{300 g}}$}$
