You are given a crushed sample that is a mixture of limestone (caco3), lime (cao), and sand. the calcium carbonate, limestone, is the only material present in the material that will decompose when heated. you subject a 6.4734 g sample of the mixture to strong heating and after the sample reaches a constant mass (no more mass is lost with additional heating), the sample has a final weight of 4.3385 g. what is the percentage of calcium carbonate present in the original mixture? (f.wt. caco3 = 100.1)

Answers

Answer 1
Answer is: percentage of calcium carbonate is 75%.
Chemical reaction: CaCO₃ → CaO + CO₂.
m₁(sample) = 6,4734 g.
m₂(sample) = 4,3385 g.
m(CO₂) = m₁(sample) - m₂(sample).
m(CO₂) = 6,4734 g - 4,3385 g.
m(CO₂) = 2,1349 g.
n(CO₂) = m(CO₂) ÷ M(CO₂).
n(CO₂) = 2,1349 g ÷ 44 g/mol.
n(CO₂) = 0,0485 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(CO₂) : n(CaCO₃) = 1 : 1.
n(CaCO₃) = 0,0485 mol.
m(CaCO₃) = 0,0485 mol · 100,1 g/mol.
m(CaCO₃) = 4,854 g.
percentage of calcium carbonate = 4,854 g ÷ 6,4734 g · 100%.
percentage of calcium carbonate = 75%.

Determine the total number of valence electrons in the arsenite ion, aso33−.

Answers

In case you're in hurry:
Ans: 26 valence electrons

Explanation:
To find the valence electrons, we need to add the valence electrons of the individual atom in the compound. Therefore, let us divide this question into 3 parts.

1) What is the number of valence electrons of Arsenic (As)?
2) What is the number of valence electrons of Oxygen (O)?
3) What is the total number of valence electrons of [tex]AsO_{3}^{3-}[/tex]

1.
The number of valence electrons of Arsenic(As) = 5

2.
The number of valence electrons of Oxygen (O) = 6

3.

Since there are 3 atoms of Oxygen, and 3 extra electrons are also present in the shape of "3-", as it is an ion, therefore,

The total number of valence electrons of [tex]AsO_{3}^{3-}[/tex] = 5 + 6 * 3 + 3 = 26 valence electrons.

Ans: The total number of valence electrons in 
[tex]AsO_{3}^{3-}[/tex] = 26.

-i

Final answer:

The arsenite ion (AsO₃₃⁻) has a total of 26 valence electrons, calculated by adding the valence electrons of arsenic and oxygen and then adding three more electrons to account for the ion's 3− charge.

Explanation:

To determine the total number of valence electrons in the arsenite ion (AsO₃₃⁻), we first count the valence electrons of each atom and then adjust for the charge on the ion. Arsenic (As) is in group 15 of the periodic table and has 5 valence electrons. Each oxygen (O) atom, being in group 16, has 6 valence electrons. There are three oxygen atoms, so:

Arsenic: 1 As atom × 5 valence electrons = 5 valence electronsOxygen: 3 O atoms × 6 valence electrons = 18 valence electrons

Adding these together: 5 (As) + 18 (O) = 23 valence electrons. Since the arsenite ion has a 3− charge, we add three electrons to account for the negative charge. So, the total number of valence electrons for AsO₃₃⁻ is:

23 (from atoms) + 3 (from charge) = 26 valence electrons

What is the empirical formula of a molecule containing 65.5% carbon 5.5% hydrogen and 29% oxygen?

Answers

I assume C₃H₃O.

Hope I helped! Tell me if I'm wrong!

Answer: The empirical formula is [tex]C_{3}H_{3}O_1[/tex]  

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.

So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of C = 65.5 g

Mass of H = 5.5 g

Mass of O = 29.0 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of C =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of C}}{\text{ molar mass of C}}= \frac{65.5g}{12g/mole}=5.5moles[/tex]

Moles of H =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of H}}{\text{ molar mass of H}}= \frac{5.5g}{1g/mole}=5.5moles[/tex]

Moles of O =[tex]\frac{\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}= \frac{29g}{16g/mole}=1.8moles\approx 1moles[/tex]

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For C = [tex]\frac{5.5}{1.8}=3[/tex]

For H = [tex]\frac{5.5}{1.8}=3[/tex]

For O =[tex]\frac{1.8}{1.8}=1[/tex]

The ratio of C : H  : O= 3: 3: 1

Hence the empirical formula is [tex]C_{3}H_{3}O_1[/tex]  

Explain how archimedes might have used the concept of density to determine whether the king's crown was pure gold. (density of gold is known to be 19.32 g/cm3 )

Answers

In theory this should work.

If you take any shape of gold and put it in a container of water (the water being filled right to the top) and measure the overflow of water you get the volume of the object.

If you then measure its mass, you can get the density with this formula
Density = mass of object made of gold / the amount of water overflow 

Given the crude methods Archimedes had at his disposal, any answer between 15 and 20 for the density would have been acceptable. If the object has any other impurities in it, the density would fall well below 19 or even 15 if there were enough impurities in it.

One of the compounds used to increase the octane rating of gasoline is toluene (pictured). suppose 8.30 ml of toluene (d = 0.867 g/ml) is consumed when a sample of gasoline burns in air.

Answers

Missing question: How many grams of oxygen are needed for complete combustion of the toluene?
Chemical reaction: C₇H₈ + 9O₂ → 7CO₂ + 4H₂O.
V(C₇H₈) = 8,30 ml.
d(C₇H₈) = 0,867 g/ml.
n(C₇H₈) = V(C₇H₈) · d(C₇H₈).
m(C₇H₈) = 8,3 ml · 0,867 g/ml.
m(C₇H₈) = 7,19 g.
n(C₇H₈) = m(C₇H₈) ÷ M(C₇H₈).
n(C₇H₈) = 7,19 g ÷ 92,14 g/mol = 0,078 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(C₇H₈) : n(O₂) = 1 : 9.
n(O₂) = 9 · 0,078 mol = 0,702 mol.
m(O₂) = 0,702 mol · 32 g/mol = 22,5 g.

The question is about the octane rating of gasoline and compound toluene that's used as an octane enhancer. An octane rating characterizes fuel's resistance to knock, originally based on a scale with n-heptane at 0 and isooctane at 100. Replacements for toxic enhancers like tetraethyl lead now include options such as toluene and ethanol.

The question involves the concept of octane rating, which is a measure of a fuel's ability to resist knocking or pinging during combustion, used in scoring gasoline. The octane scale was established using n-heptane, with an octane rating of 0, and isooctane (2,2,4-trimethylpentane), with an octane rating of 100. Fuel blends are scored against these standards to determine their octane rating. For example, a mixture of 89% isooctane and 11% n-heptane would have an octane rating of 89, representing an intermediate grade of gasoline.

Enhancers, such as toluene or ethanol, are used to increase the octane rating of gasoline. Toluene, which has a higher octane rating than 100, provides better fuel performance than pure isooctane. Historically, tetraethyl lead was used as an anti-knock agent, but due to its toxicity, it has been phased out and replaced with other substances like MTBE and ethanol.

What mass of salt (nacl) should you add to 1.48 l of water in an ice cream maker to make a solution that freezes at -13.4 ∘c ? assume complete dissociation of the nacl and density of 1.00 g/ml for water?

Answers

Answer is: mass of salt is 311,15 g.
V(H₂O) = 1,48 l · 1000 ml/l = 1480 ml.
m(H₂O) = 1480 g = 1,48 kg.
d(solution) = 1,00 g/ml.
ΔT(solution) = 13,4°C = 13,4 K.
Kf = 1,86 K·kg/mol; cryoscopic constant of water
i(NaCl) = 2; Van 't Hoff factor.
ΔT(solution) = Kf · b · i.
b(NaCl) = 13,4 K ÷ (1,86 K·kg/mol · 2).
b(NaCl) = 3,6 mol/kg.
n(NaCl) = 3,6 mol · 1,48 kg= 5,328 mol.
m(NaCl) = 5,328 mol · 58,4 g/mol = 311,15 g.

Answer:

311.6g NaCl you should add

Explanation:

When you add a solute (NaCl) to solvent (Water), the freezing point of the solution decreases with regard to pure solvent following the equation:

ΔT = Kf × m × i

Where ΔT is change in temperature(From 0°C to -13.4°C), Kf is freezing point depression constant (1.86°C/m for water), m is molality of solution (Moles solute / 1.48 kg solvent -Because 1.48L≡1.48kg; density 1.00g/mL-) and i is Van't Hoff factor (2 for NaCl because in water, NaCl dissociates as Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions, 2 ions).

Replacing:

13.4°C = 1.86°C/m × moles NaCl / 1.48kg × 2

5.33 = moles NaCl

As molar mass of NaCl is 58.44g/mol, mass in 5.33moles are:

5.33mol NaCl × (58.44g /mol) = 311.6g NaCl you should add

The correct option is B.
Alloy steel chains are usually opted for because they are strong, durable, resistant to abrasion and they have the ability to conform to the shape of the loads that they are carrying. In addition to all these properties, they also have the capacity to carry hot materials. These chains are typically made from various grades of alloys, therefore, manufacturers normally marked them in accordance with American Society for Testing and Maintenance guidelines. The chains are usually marked to show the following: size, grade, length and load capacity. The chain are often also marked with serial numbers and the manufacturers' names and brands.
Thus, all the facts mentioned about alloy steel chains in the options given above are correct. 

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A metal that tends to combine with two or more metal elements in order to gain strength or durability etc is known as an alloy.

For example, an alloy of steel contains elements like manganese, silicon, nickel, titanium, copper etc.

Some properties of alloys of steel are as follows.

They are able to adapt to the shape of the load applied. They are the best choice for hoisting hot material.Usually they are marked with a grade or manufacture’s mark.

Classify methanol (ch3oh) as a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, or a nonelectrolyte.

Answers

Explanation:

A strong electrolyte is defined as the one which contains solute that completely dissociates into ions. Strong acids will lead to the formation of strong electrolytes.

For example, HCl will make a strong electrolyte.

Whereas a weak electrolyte is defined as the one which contains solute that slightly dissociates into ions.

For example, [tex]CH_{3}OH[/tex] is a weak electrolyte.

This is because methanol when dissolved in water does not completely dissociates into ions. Therefore, very less number of ions are present into the solution and as a result, the solution will not be able to conduct electricity.

Also, oxygen atom being more electronegative in nature will hold the hydrogen atom of O-H more tightly, Hence, very less or no hydrogen ions will not present into the solution.

Therefore, we can conclude that methanol is a weak electrolyte.

Final answer:

Methanol, or CH3OH, is classified as a nonelectrolyte because it does not ionize or produce ions when dissolved in water, and can't therefore conduct electricity. In contrast, substances that do dissolve in water to produce ions, and can conduct electricity are electrolytes, either strong or weak.

Explanation:

The student question classifies methanol (CH3OH) as a strong electrolyte, a weak electrolyte, or a nonelectrolyte. Methanol would be classified as a nonelectrolyte.

Electrolytes are substances that when dissolved in water, they produce ions. If the process is almost 100% efficient, the substance can be considered a strong electrolyte. If only a small percentage of the substance produces ions, it is a weak electrolyte. However, substances that do not produce ions when dissolved in water are called nonelectrolytes.

Methanol, in this case, does not ionize when dissolved in water, therefore, doesn't produce ions. This classifies it as a nonelectrolyte. This can be further confirmed through a conductance test. Electrolytes can conduct electricity when dissolved in water due to the presence of ions. Since methanol doesn't produce ions when dissolved, it won't conduct electricity, substantiating its classification as a nonelectrolyte.

why is the solubility of khp in water greater than many fatty acids with six or more carbons?

Answers

Final answer:

KHP has greater water solubility than fatty acids with long hydrocarbon chains due to its polar carboxylate anion that allows for strong hydrogen bonding with water, whereas fatty acids have a hydrophilic region that becomes less significant relative to the hydrophobic chain as the chain length increases, leading to decreased solubility.

Explanation:

The solubility of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) in water is greater than that of fatty acids with six or more carbons mainly due to the difference in the chemical structure and polarity of the molecules. KHP possesses a highly polar functional group (carboxylate anion) that can form strong hydrogen bonds with water molecules, whereas fatty acids have long hydrocarbon chains that exhibit a hydrophobic character and tend to be less soluble in polar solvents like water. As fatty acids increase in chain length, their solubility in water decreases because the proportion of the nonpolar, hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain relative to the polar carboxyl group becomes larger, resulting in weaker interactions with water molecules.

Fatty acids with long chains, such as those with more than eight carbons, are termed amphiphilic or amphipathic. These substances have both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) regions, which makes them behave differently in water. For instance, fatty acids with ten or more carbon atoms are nearly insoluble in water but can form a monolayer on the water surface, displaying properties characteristic of surfactants.

The higher solubility of KHP in water compared to fatty acids with six or more carbons is due to its ionic nature and the larger proportion of hydrophobic regions in long-chain fatty acids which decrease their solubility.

The higher solubility of potassium hydrogen phthalate (KHP) in water compared to many fatty acids with six or more carbons is attributed to both its ionic nature and structural differences.

KHP is an ionic compound, meaning it dissociates into ions (potassium and hydrogen phthalate ions) in water.

These ions interact strongly with water molecules through ion-dipole interactions, facilitating its dissolution. In contrast, fatty acids remain as neutral molecules in water, lacking the strong electrostatic interactions that promote solubility.

Additionally, KHP contains hydrophilic groups like the carboxylate group, which further enhance its solubility by forming hydrogen bonds with water molecules.

In contrast, the hydrophobic nature of fatty acids increases with longer carbon chains, leading to decreased solubility in water. The predominance of non-polar hydrocarbon chains in fatty acids reduces their ability to interact favorably with the polar solvent, further lowering their solubility.

Therefore, the combination of KHP's ionic nature and its structural features that promote interactions with water molecules explains why it exhibits higher solubility in water compared to many fatty acids with longer carbon chains

Answer : The balanced chemical reaction will be,

[tex]2HNO_3(aq)+K_2SO_3(aq)\rightarrow K_2SO_4(aq)+H_2O(l)+2NO_2(g)[/tex]

Explanation :

Balanced chemical equation : It is defined as the number of atoms of individual elements present on reactant side must be equal to the product side.

When the nitric acid react with potassium sulfite to give potassium sulfate, water and nitrogen dioxide.

Thus, the balanced chemical reaction will be,

[tex]2HNO_3(aq)+K_2SO_3(aq)\rightarrow K_2SO_4(aq)+H_2O(l)+2NO_2(g)[/tex]

The balanced chemical equation is as follows:

[tex]\boxed{{\text{2HN}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\left( {aq} \right) + {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_3}\left( {aq} \right) \to {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_4}\left( {aq} \right) + 2{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\left( g \right) + {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}\left( l \right)}[/tex]

The phase of [tex]{{\mathbf{K}}_{\mathbf{2}}}{\mathbf{S}}{{\mathbf{O}}_{\mathbf{4}}}[/tex] is [tex]\boxed{{\mathbf{aqueous}}}[/tex], [tex]{\mathbf{N}}{{\mathbf{O}}_{\mathbf{2}}}[/tex] is [tex]\boxed{{\mathbf{gas}}}[/tex] and [tex]{{\mathbf{H}}_{\mathbf{2}}}{\mathbf{O}}[/tex] is [tex]\boxed{{\mathbf{liquid}}}[/tex].

Further Explanation:

The chemical reaction that contains equal number of atoms of the different elements in the reactant as well as in the product side is known as balanced chemical reaction. The chemical equation is required to be balanced to follow the Law of the conservation of mass.

The steps to balance a chemical reaction are as follows:  

Step 1: Complete the reaction and write the unbalanced symbol equation.

In the given reaction, [tex]{\text{HN}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}[/tex] reacts with [tex]{{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_3}[/tex] to form [tex]{{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_4}[/tex], [tex]{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}[/tex] and [tex]{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}[/tex]. The physical state of [tex]{{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_4}[/tex] is aqueous, [tex]{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}[/tex] is gas and [tex]{{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}[/tex] is liquid. The unbalanced chemical equation is as follows:

[tex]{\text{HN}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\left( {aq} \right) + {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_3}\left( {aq} \right) \to {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_4}\left( {aq} \right) + {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\left( g \right) + {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}\left( l \right)[/tex]

Step 2: Then we write the number of atoms of all the different elements that are present in a chemical reaction in the reactant side and product side separately.(Refer table in the attached image)

On the reactant side,  

Number of hydrogen atoms is 1.

Number of nitrogen atoms is 1.

Number of oxygen atoms is 6.

Number of potassium atoms is 2.

Number of sulfur atoms is 1.

On the product side,  

Number of hydrogen atoms is 1.

Number of nitrogen atoms is 1.

Number of oxygen atoms is 6.

Number of potassium atoms is 2.

Number of sulfur atoms is 1.

Step 3: Initially, we try to balance the number of other atoms of elements except for carbon, oxygen, and hydrogen by multiplying with some number on any side. The other elements except oxygen and hydrogen are balanced.

Step 4: After this we balance the number of atoms of oxygen followed by hydrogen atoms. To balance the number of atoms of oxygen and hydrogen, we have to multiply [tex]{\text{HN}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}[/tex] by 2, [tex]{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}[/tex] by 2. The chemical equation is as follows:

[tex]{\text{2HN}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\left( {aq} \right) + {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_3}\left( {aq} \right) \to {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_4}\left( {aq} \right) + 2{\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\left( g \right) + {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}\left( l \right)[/tex]

Step 5: Finally, we check the number of atoms of each element on both the sides. If the number is same then the chemical equation is balanced. The balanced chemical equation is as follows:

[tex]{\text{HN}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{3}}}\left( {aq} \right) + {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_3}\left( {aq} \right) \to {{\text{K}}_2}{\text{S}}{{\text{O}}_4}\left( {aq} \right) + {\text{N}}{{\text{O}}_{\text{2}}}\left( g \right) + {{\text{H}}_{\text{2}}}{\text{O}}\left( l \right)[/tex]

Suppose your thermometer is off by 1.5 oc i.e. it reads values that are 1.5 oc higher. how would this affect the results in this experiment? (3 pts)

Answers

I assume that the experiment is about calculating the enthalpy of a reaction. 
If you consistently use the thermometer for all procedure in the experiment, the effect will be negligible because all temperature will be increased by 1.5 °C.

In enthalpy calculation, the energy is determined by the temperature differences. If the final and initial temperature increased by 1.5 °C, then the difference will not be changed.

\Final answer:

A thermometer reading off by 1.5 °C would significantly impact the accuracy of experimental results by overestimating temperature values, potentially leading to incorrect conclusions in experiments that require precise temperature measurements.

Explanation:

If your thermometer is off by 1.5 °C, meaning it reads values that are 1.5 °C higher, this discrepancy would significantly affect the accuracy of your experimental results. This error would lead to consistently overestimated temperature readings, causing potential misinterpretations of the outcomes. For example, in experiments where precise temperature control and measurement are crucial, such as in testing product formulations or determining chemical reaction rates, an inaccurate thermometer could lead to incorrect assessments of these processes.

In laboratory settings, accurate temperature measurement is pivotal for ensuring the validity of experimental results. An error of 1.5 °C could not only impact the interpretation of a single experiment but also compound in experiments relying on precise temperature measurements to gauge reactions or behaviors, thereby misleading conclusions and potentially invalidating the experiment's purpose. Moreover, in cases like accelerated shelf life testing, a small temperature discrepancy could result in significant errors in the estimated product shelf life, underscoring the importance of using accurately calibrated equipment. Examples include estimating expiry dates based on the stability of products at increased temperatures where a minor measurement error could drastically skew the results. Hence, ensuring that laboratory equipment, especially thermometers, are correctly calibrated is essential for experimental integrity and accuracy.

Scientists found a fern fossil in some rock layers of the Grand Canyon. They estimated that a sample of one of the fossils originally contained 1000 carbon-14 atoms when it became 'fossilized', and at the time it was tested, it only contained 250 carbon-14 atoms. Look at the chart below. How old is the fossil?

Answers

This question is dealing with the half-life of carbon-14 which can be used to determine the age of a substance according to the following equation:

t = [ln(N/No)/(-ln2)] · t1/2

N = # of carbon-14 atoms presently = 250 atoms
No = # of carbon-14 atoms initially = 1000 atoms
t1/2 = half-life = 5730 years for carbon-14

We can now input all of the information into the formula to find the age of the fossil:

t = [ln (250/1000)/-ln2] x 5730 years

t = 11460 years

The fossil should be found to be roughly 11,460 years old.

If the ph of a 1.00-in. rainfall over 1600 miles2 is 3.60, how many kilograms of sulfuric acid, h2so4, are present, assuming that it is the only acid contributing to the ph? for sulfuric acid, ka1 is very large and ka2 is 0.012.

Answers

The solution for this problem would be:
H + ions from pH = 4.0 x 10^-4 moles.
But H2SO4 gives off 2 moles of H+ ions / mole.
Moles of H2SO4 = 2.0 x 10^-4
Mass = 2 x 10^-4 moles x 98 = 1.96 x 10^-3 grams
1.96 x 10^-3 grams / 10^3 = 1.96 x 10^-6 Kg.

What is an ecosystem?

Ecosystem is defined as a system which consists of all living organisms and the physical components with which the living beings interact. The abiotic and biotic components are linked to each other through nutrient cycles and flow of energy.

Energy enters the system through the process of photosynthesis .Animals play an important role in transfer of energy as they feed on each other.As a result of this transfer of matter and energy takes place through the system .Living organisms also influence the quantity of biomass present.By decomposition of dead plants and animals by microbes nutrients are released back in to the soil.

Answers

I added a image with the complete question as well as its choices.

Answer:
The rate of formation of X is 4 times the rate of disappearance of B

Explanation:
The given is:
3A + B .............> 4X + 2Y
From this, we can see that the ratio between the reactant B and the product X is 1 :4.
This means that for every reacting mole B, 4 moles of product X are formed, which means that the ratio between the disappearance of B and the formation of X is 1:4

The answer would be
A. the mass in grams of one mole of a substance

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Molar mass is defined as the mass in grams of one mole of a substance.

Mathematically,       Molar mass = [tex]\frac{mass in grams}{moles of substance}[/tex]

For example, molar mass of 1 mole of [tex]CH_{4}[/tex] molecule will be calculated as follows.

             Molar mass of [tex]CH_{4}[/tex] = [tex]mass of carbon atom + 4 \times mass of hydrogen atom[/tex]

                                 = [tex]12 + 4 \times 1[/tex]

                                 = 16 g

Therefore, 1 mole of [tex]CH_{4}[/tex] molecules has a molar mass of 16 g.

What is the total number of valence electrons in the lewis structure of sef2o?

Answers

Final answer:

The total number of valence electrons in the Lewis structure of SEF2O is calculated by adding the valence electrons of each atom, giving us a total of 26 electrons.

Explanation:

The total number of valence electrons in the lewis structure of SEF2O can be calculated by adding up the valence electrons in each atom. Selenium (Se) has 6 valence electrons, each Fluorine (F) has 7 (so that's 14 for 2 Fluorines), and Oxygen (O) also has 6. So, the total number of valence electrons in SEF2O is 24+2 = 26.

Final answer:

The total number of valence electrons in the Lewis structure of SeF2O is 26.

Explanation:

The Lewis structure of SeF2O consists of a central Se atom bonded to two F atoms and one O atom. To determine the total number of valence electrons, we need to add up the valence electrons of each particle. She has six valence electrons, each F atom has seven valence electrons, and O has six valence electrons. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in the Lewis structure of SeF2O is 6 (Se) + 2(7) (F) + 6 (O) = 26.

A 2,000g of C-14 is left to decay radioactively. The half-life of Carbon-14 is approximately 5,700 years. What percentage of the sample will remain after 17,100 years?

Answers

Answer is: 12,6% (1/8) percentage of the sample will remain.
c₀ - initial amount of C-14.
c - amount of C-14 remaining at time.
t = 5700 y.
First calculate the radioactive decay rate constant λ:
λ = 0,693 ÷ t = 0,693 ÷ 5700 y = 0,000121 1/y = 1,21·10⁻⁴ y.
c = c₀·e∧-λ·t.
c = 2000 · e∧-(0,000121 1/y · 17100 y).
c = 252 g.
ω = 252 g ÷ 2000 g = 0,126 = 12,6%.

Write the balanced chemical equation for the reverse reaction. include physical states for all species.

Answers

This is a missing part of your question:
The equilibrium system between sulfur dioxide gas, oxygen gas, and sulfur trioxide gas is given.
So you need the equilibrium balanced equation of SO2, O2, SO3 reaction:
First, we will start with the original equation which is not balanced yet (to understand how we get it):
SO2 + O2 ↔ SO3 
Here the number of O atom is not equal at the to sides
So we will start to balance our equation by make the number of O atom equal each other on both sides:
So we will start to put 2SO3 instead of SO3 
and put 2SO2 instead of SO2 to balance also the S atom on both sides
So we will get this:
2SO2(g) + O2(g)  2SO3(g) (This is our equilibrium balanced equation)
know we have a number of O atom equals on each side = 6
and the sulfur equals on each side = 2

The balanced equation for the reverse reaction would be

[tex]2SO_3 (g) < ----- > 2SO_2 (g) + O_2 (g)[/tex]

Reversible reactions

They are reactions that proceed in opposing directions - that is, reactants to products and vice versa.

The equilibrium system between sulfur dioxide gas, oxygen gas, and sulfur trioxide gas can be represented as:

[tex]2SO_2 (g) + O_2 (g) < --- > 2SO_3 (g)[/tex]

Thus, the reverse reaction would be:

[tex]2SO_3 (g) < ----- > 2SO_2 (g) + O_2 (g)[/tex]

Convert the pressure 0.840 atm to mm Hg

Answers

The pressure unit is Pascal (sign Pa) or Newton per square meter (N / m2). In addition to Pascal, a pressure measurement unit can be used bar (1 bar = 105 Pa). The old pressure units are: technical atmosphere, the symbol at (1 at = 98 066.5 Pa); standard, normal or physical atmosphere, atm (1 atm = 101 325 Pa); millimetres of mercury, the symbol mmHg, or torr (1 mmHg = 1 torr = 133,322 Pa); millimeter of water, symbol mmH2O (1 mmH2O = 9.806 65 Pa).

1 atm = 101 325 Pa
1 mmHg = 133,322 Pa

1 atm = 101 325/133.322 = 760 mmHg

0.84 atm = 760 x 0.84 = 638.4 mmHg
Final answer:

The pressure of 0.840 atmospheres (atm) can be converted to millimeters of mercury (mm Hg) by using the conversion factor, 1 atm = 760 mm Hg. The result of this conversion is 638.4 mm Hg.

Explanation:

To convert the pressure from atmospheres (atm) to millimeters of mercury (mm Hg), we use the conversion factor of 1 atm = 760 mm Hg. This is a known standard in chemistry and physics. In this case, the conversion will be as follows:

0.840 atm x 760 mm Hg/1 atm = 638.4 mm Hg

Therefore, 0.840 atm is equivalent to 638.4 mm Hg.
