C)They together help recycle important elements in nature.


D)They both help lower our carbon footprint.

Answers

C They together help recycle important elements in nature.

This is because photosynthesis removes carbon dioxide and creates oxygen while cellular respiration does the opposite. This results in no increase or decrease in any of the elements, and therefore means there needs to be a cycle.

What criteria does this mixture have to satisfy to be separated by simple or fractional distillation

Answers

Hi, the given question is incomplete, the complete question is:

You carry out a reaction that yields a major product Q (boiling point: 120°C) and side product R (boiling point: 150°C). The ratio of Q to R is 70:30. Both Q and Rare liquids.

After the ethyl acetate is evaporated, Q and R (a mixture of liquids) remain. What criteria does this mixture have to satisfy to be separated by simple or fractional distillation (besides bp difference and composition)?

Answer:

The basic criteria are that the two liquids should be miscible. A mixture of two miscible liquids is further separated by the process of simple distillation and fractional distillation. For the liquids that exhibit varied boiling points, with a difference of +30 degrees C, the process of simple distillation is used. On the other hand, for the liquids whose boiling points come between the range of o to 30 degrees C, the process of fractional distillation is used.

Answers

The given question is complete, the complete question is:

To measure the amount of calcium carbonate (CaCO) in a seashell, an analytical chemist crushes a 4.80 g sample of the shell to a fine powder and titrates it to the endpoint with 515. mL of 0.140 M hydrogen chloride (HCl) solution. The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: 2HCI(a)Co (a) H2Co,(aq) + 2Cl (aq)

What kind of reaction is this?

If you said this was a precipitation reaction, enter the chemical formula of the precipitate.

If you said this was an acid-base reaction, enter the chemical formula of the reactant that is acting as the base.

If you said this was a redox reaction, enter the chemical symbol of the element that is oxidized

Calculate the mass percent of CaCO in the sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.

Answer:

It is an acid-base reaction and the mass percent of CaCo3 is 75.2%.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction in which an insoluble salt produces from two soluble salts is termed as precipitation reaction.

A reaction in which atleast exchange of one proton takes place between the two species is termed as an acid-base reaction.

A reaction in which any of the element has a change in oxidation state is termed as redox reaction.

In the mentioned reaction, there is a transfer of H⁺, no precipitation is forming, and no change in oxidation state taking place, thus, it is an acid-base reaction.

In the acid-base reaction, the base refers to the species that accepts hydrogen ion or proton. In the given case, CO₃²⁻ is accepting H+ ion to become H₂CO₃. Hence, CO₃²⁻ is the base.

In order to calculate mass percent of CaCO₃, first there is a need to find the moles of HCl reacted for a solution,

Moles = Molarity × Volume (L)

Moles = 0.140 mol/L × 515 × 10⁻³ L

Moles = 0.0721 mol

Now from the balanced equation, one mole of CaCO₃ needs two moles of HCl.

So, moles of CaCO₃ reacted will be,

= 1/2 × 0.0721 = 0.03605 mol

The mass of calcium carbonate taking part in reaction will be,

= Moles × Molar mass

= 0.03605 × 100 gram/mole

= 3.6086 gram

Mass% of CaCO₃ = Mass of CaCO₃/Mass of sample × 100

= 3.6086 grams/4.80 grams × 100

Mass % = 75.2%

When an atom makes a transition from a higher energy level to a lower one, a photon is released. What is the wavelength of the photon that is emitted from the atom during the transition?

Answers

Answer:

Depends on different states.

Explanation:

The wavelength of the photon that is emitted from the atom during the transition depends on the transition from different states. If the photon is emitted from n=4 state to n=3 state, the wavelength of photon is 1875 while on the other hand, if the photon is emitted from n=5 state to n=3 state, the wavelength of photon is 1282. If the photon is emitted from n=3 state to n=2 state, the wavelength of photon is 656.

A 3.74-L cylinder contains 4.17 g of methane, CH4, at a pressure of 3020 mmHg. What is the temperature of the gas

Answers

Answer:

T = 694 K

Explanation:

Given the following data:

V= 3.74 L

mass = m = 4.17 g

P = 3020 mmHg x 1 atm/760 mmHg= 3.97 atm

We use the ideal gases equation to calculate the temperature (T):

PV= nRT ⇒ T= PV/nR

We calculate n (number of moles of methane gas) by dividing the mass into the molar mass of methane (CH₄):

molar mass(CH₄) = MM = (1 x 12 g/mol)+ (4 x 1 g/mol) = 16 g/mol

n = m/MM= 4.17 g/(16 g/mol)= 0.261 mol

Finally, we calculate T:

T= PV/nR = (3.97 atm x 3.74 L)/(0.261 mol x 0.082 L.atm/K.mol) = 694 K

The solubility product for an insoluble salt with the formula M2X3 is written as ________, where s is the molar solubility

Answers

Answer:

36s^5

Explanation:

We have;

M2X3 (s)------> 2M^3+(aq)  + 3X^2-(aq)

If [M^3+(aq)] = [X^2-(aq)] = s

We then have;

Ksp = (2s)^2 * (3s)^3

Ksp = 4s^2 * 9s^3

Ksp = 36s^5

Note that Ksp is known as the solubility product. It is an equilibrum equation that shows the solubility of a solute in water.

An industrial chemist mixes 105.3 mol
of H, and 56.2 mol of N. in a Haber
process reactor. How many moles of
ammonia will form?
105.3 mol
56.2 mol
35.1 mol

Answers

Answer:

Number of moles of ammonia formed = 70.2 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of H₂ = 105.3 mol

Number of moles of N₂ = 56.2 mol

Number of moles of ammonia formed = ?

Solution:

N₂ + 3H₂        →      2NH₃

Now we will compare the moles of ammonia with both reactant.

               H₂           :            NH₃

                3             :              2

                105.3       :      2/3×1.05.3 = 70.2 mol

                N₂           :            NH₃

                1              :              2

                56.2        :         2×56.2 = 112.4mol

It is true that all circuits must have three things: energy source, wire, and a generator.

What is a circuit?

A circuit in electronics is a complete circular path through which electricity flows.

A basic circuit is made up of a current source, conductors, and a load. The term circuit can be used broadly to refer to any fixed path through which electricity, data, or a signal can travel.

Circuits are classified into five major types: closed circuits, open circuits, short circuits, series circuits, and parallel circuits.

An electric circuit consists of a device that provides energy to the charged particles that make up the current, such as a battery or a generator, as well as devices that use current, such as lamps, electric motors, and so on.

All circuits must include three components: an energy source, wire, and a generator.

Thus, the given statement is true.

How many moles, of SiC is produced from 5.0 mol C?

SiO2 + 3C → SiC + 2CO

Answers

Answer:

1.67 moles SiC

Explanation:

Given Rxn   SiO₂ + 3C => SiC + 2CO

Given mass => 5 moles C => ? moles SiC will be formed  

Mass (moles) SiC yield = 1/3(5moles) = 1.67moles SiC

Solution Analysis:

Look at the balanced equation and note the coefficients of the given and unknown. In the above case, the balanced equation shows 3 moles Carbon to 1 mole Silicon Carbide. Since the coefficient for SiC is smaller than the coefficient for C then one should get a yield of SiC smaller than moles of C given. To calculate the yield based on these two compounds make a ratio of coefficients such that when multiplied by the given (5 moles in this case) one obtains a number smaller than 5. That is, 1/3(5 moles) = 1.67 moles SiC. Note that the moles of SiC (=1.67) is smaller than moles of C (=5 moles).  You certainly would not get a smaller number than 5 if you used the ratio 3/1(5) moles = 15 moles. Wrong!

Here’s another example:

Given Rxn => 3H₂ + N₂ => 2NH₃  

Given 7 moles H₂ calculate the moles of NH₃ produced.  

Solution:  

Note the known is moles H₂ and NH₃ the unknown. From the balanced equation note the coefficient of NH₃ is smaller than the coefficient for H₂. Therefore using the coefficients of H₂ (3) and NH₃ (2) form a ratio such that when multiplied by the given 7 moles one gets a smaller number (the answer needed).

Therefore, mass (moles) NH₃ produced = 2/3(7) moles NH₃ = 3.33 moles NH₃ produced from 7 moles of H₂.  3.33 < 7 as defined by balanced equation.

Rule of Thumb...

When working equation problems, first convert all given data to moles and then use the ratio of coefficients to make the given smaller or larger as defined by equation. Then, if needed, convert moles to desired dimension for problem given.
