Answers

Answer 1

Answer: C

# The main reason why the reaction above can not be balanced is:

   This chemical reaction SO2 + H2O -> H2SO2 is not correctly written.

    It must be: SO2 + H2O -> H2SO3

Explanation:

Note 1:

H2SO2 can be produced by the other chemical reaction:

2H2O + SCl2 -> 2HCl + H2SO2

....

Note 2: Answer A is false

As you can see in the reaction  SO2 + H2O -> H2SO3, the oxygen atoms are in two molecules on one side, but one in the other - However, this reaction is written correctly.

Note 3: Answer D is false

Of course the Sulfur atom must be placed in different places: in reactant and product molecules.

Note 4: Answer B is false

There are different kinds of chemical reactions, and this is normal that there are more molecules on one side than on the other.

Answer 2

The answer is C

The correct way to balance the reaction, would be to write it as SO2 + H2O →  H2SO3

Answer A is incorrect.

The oxygen atoms in the reaction SO2 + H2O -> H2SO3 are in two compounds on one end but on the other, it is in just one.

Answer D is wrong.

The sulfur atom has to be in the reactants and the products.

Answer B is not correct.

There are many types of chemical reactions . One side commonly has more atoms than the other.

Suppose the yield of the first step is 71.% and the yield of the second step is 72.%. Calculate the mass of oxygen required to make 7.0 kg of iron.
Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to 2 significant digits.

Answers

Answer:

5.9 kg  

Explanation:

We must work backwards from the second step to work out the mass of oxygen.

1. Second step

Mᵣ:                                     55.84

            Fe₂O₃ + 3CO  ⟶  2Fe  +  3CO₂

m/kg:                                    7.0

(a) Moles of Fe

[tex]\text{Moles of FeO} = \text{7000 g Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol Fe}}{\text{55.84 g Fe}} = \text{125 mol Fe}[/tex]

(b) Moles of CO

[tex]\text{Moles of CO} = \text{125 mol Fe} \times \dfrac{\text{3 mol CO}}{\text{2 mol Fe}} = \text{188 mol CO}[/tex]

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 72. %.

We need more CO and Fe₂O₃ to get the theoretical yield of Fe.

(c) Percent yield

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Percent yield} &=& \dfrac{\text{ actual yield}}{\text{ theoretical yield}} \times 100 \, \%\\\\ 72. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.72 &= &\dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{0.72}\\& = & \textbf{261 mol}\\\\\end{array}[/tex]

We must use 261 mol of CO to get 7.0 kg of Fe.

2. First step

Mᵣ:                32.00

            2C   +  O₂   ⟶  2CO

n/mol:                             261

(a) Moles of O₂

[tex]\text{Moles of O}_{2} = \text{261 mol CO} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol O}_{2}}{\text{2 mol CO}} = \text{131 mol O}_{2}[/tex]

(b) Mass of O₂

[tex]\text{Mass of O}_{2}= \text{131 mol O }_{2} \times \dfrac{\text{32.00 g O}_{2}}{\text{1 mol O}_{2}} = \text{4180 g O}_{2}[/tex]

However, this is the theoretical yield.

The actual yield is 71. %.

We need more C and O₂ to get the theoretical yield of CO.

(c) Percent yield

[tex]\begin{array}{rcl}71. \, \% & = & \dfrac{\text{188 mol}}{\text{actual yield}} \times 100 \,\%\\\\0.71 &= &\dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{\text{actual yield}}\\\\\text{Actual yield} & = & \dfrac{\text{4180 g}}{0.71}\\\\& = & \text{5900 g}\\& = & \textbf{5.9 kg}\\\end{array}[/tex]

We need 5.9 kg of O₂ to produce 7.0 kg of Fe.

Explain the different principles that allow roller coasters to rip and roar around the tracks. In your response, include how energy is transferred back and forth between kinetic and potential.

Answers

Answer:

In the roller coasters the potential energy that is given is the gravitational potential energy, which this energy increases its value as the object moves away from the earth, that is to say, the more height the roller coaster acquires the more gravitational potential energy it will have, and Said train where people usually get on the roller coaster will descend or descend with greater acceleration.

This gravitational potential energy once the mountain begins to descend or descend is converted into kinetic energy

Explanation:

This that we wrote above is considering that the roller coaster does not have curved routes but rectilinear, in the case that it had curved routes, a force would be added in addition to those written that is the centripetal force, it is the same force that appears in the centrifuges or dryers of clothes or the same washing machine. This force, the centripetal force is the force that draws a moving object, in a curvilinear path, towards the center of the curvature.

If a buffer has an initial pH of 6.34 and the acid has a Ka of 3.46 × 10-4, what is the ratio of conjugate base to weak acid in the buffer system?

Answers

Answer: The ratio of conjugate base to weak acid in the buffer system is 758 : 1

Explanation:

The dissociation constant for  acid = [tex]K_a=3.46\times 10^{-4}[/tex]

pH = 6.34

First we have to calculate the value of [tex]pK_a[/tex].

The expression used for the calculation of [tex]pK_a[/tex] is,

[tex]pK_a=-\log (K_a)[/tex]

Now put the value of [tex]K_a[/tex] in this expression, we get:

[tex]pK_a=-\log (3.46\times 10^{-4})[/tex]

[tex]pK_a=3.46[/tex]

Now we have to calculate the ratio of conjugate base to weak acid in the buffer system

Using Henderson Hesselbach equation :

[tex]pH=pK_a+\log \frac{[\text {conjugate base}]}{[Acid]}[/tex]

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

[tex]6.34=3.46+\log \frac{[\text {conjugate base}]}{[Acid]}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{[\text {conjugate base}]}{[Acid]}=758[/tex]

Therefore, the ratio of conjugate base to weak acid in the buffer system is 758: 1

following balanced equation.
2012(g) + 702(g) + 130 kcal yields 201207(9)

Answers

Answer: 780 kcal are required to produce 12.00 mol of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex]

Explanation:

Endothermic reactions are defined as the reactions in which energy of the product is greater than the energy of the reactants. The total energy is absorbed in the form of heat and written along with reactants.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

[tex]2Cl_2(g)+7O_2(g)+130kcal\rightarrow 2Cl_2O_7(g)[/tex]

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex] are produced by absorption of energy = 130 kcal

Thus 12.00 moles of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex] are produced by absorption of energy = [tex]\frac{130}{2}\times 12.00=780kcal[/tex]

Thus 780 kcal are required to produce 12.00 mol of [tex]Cl_2O_7[/tex]

If a gas occupies 22.4 L at 0.265 atm, then what will the pressure be in atmospheres if the gas occupies 35.52 L? Assume all other
variables are held constant
A)0.167 atm
B)0.437 atm
C)0.886 atm
D)149 atm

Answers

Answer:

The new pressure is 0.167 atm

The correct answer is option A

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the gas = 22.4 L

Pressure of the gas = 0.265 atm

The volume increases to 35.52 L

Step 2: Calculate the new pressure

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure = 0.265 atm

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 22.4 L

⇒with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 35.52 L

0.265 atm * 22.4 L = P2 * 35.52 L

P2 = (0.265 atm * 22.4 L) / 35.52 L

P2 = 0.167 atm

The new pressure is 0.167 atm

The correct answer is option A

(Ethan Siegal, "The Universe Would Be Very Different Without Dark Matter", Forbes)

Dark matter makes up most of matter in the universe and is found by a quarter of the total composition of the space. After the event of the big bang, the universe expanded and dark matter grew.

Dark matter accounts for about 85% of the matter in the universe. Its presence can be felt in the gravitational effects. Dark matter doesn't interact with the electromagnetic field. After the big bang event, the dark matter still can be found in larger galaxies and contest about 26% of mass-energy and 69% of dark energy. If there had been no dark matter there would be no structure of the cosmic web of galaxies. That is there would be no connection between the galaxies and would remain in isolated fragments.

Thus dark matter is a link within and with the comic web.

0.450 moles of K2SO4 are dissolved in 195.0 mL of water. Calculate the molarity of the solution.

Answers

Answer:

2.31M

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mole of K2SO4 = 0.450 mole

Volume of water = 195.0 mL = 195/1000 = 0.195L

Molarity =...?

Molarity is defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. This can be expressed as:

Molarity = mole /Volume

With the above formula we can calculate the molarity of the K2SO4 solution as follow:

Molarity = mole /Volume

Molarity = 0.450/0.195

Molarity = 2.31M

If the mole fraction of sulfuric acid H2SO4 is 0.432 what is the percent by mass of H2SO4.

Answers

Answer:

19.47%

Explanation:

The percentage by mass of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] would be 19.47%.

The percentage by mass of a substance in solution is calculated as:

   [tex]\frac{mass of substance}{mass of substance + water} * 100%[/tex]

Given that the mole fraction of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] = 0.432

The total number of mole fraction of a solution = 1

Hence, mole fraction of water = 1 - 0.432 = 0.568

Mass of water = molar mass x mole

                              = 98.079 x 0.432 = 42.37 g

Mass of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] = molar mass x mole

                          = 18.02 x 0.568 = 10.24 g

Hence,

%mass of [tex]H_2SO_4[/tex] = [tex]\frac{10.24}{10.24 + 42.37} * 100[/tex]

                         = 19.47%

Answers

Answer:

Here's what I get  

Explanation:

1. Trends in atomic size

Atomic size tends to decrease from left to right across the Periodic Table.

You are adding one electron at a time. the electrons repel each other, so the size should increase.

You are also adding a proton to the nucleus. The additional attraction should pull the electrons closer to the nucleus.

The nuclear pull wins, so the atoms get smaller from left to right

Atomic size increases from top to bottom of a Group.

You are adding electrons to an extra shell, so the size should increase.

You are also adding protons to the nucleus, so the size should decrease.

The size of the outer shell wins, so the atomic size increases going down a Group.

2. Lewis structures

(a) Ammonium ion

N is the central atom. The N atom has the positive charge.

(b) Sulfur trioxide

S is the central atom, with a double bond to each of the three O atoms.

(c) Hydrogen cyanide

C is the central atom, with a triple bond to the N atom.

3. COS
