The filament wire will burn away after some time since argon is used in light bulbs as it is a noble gas, having a full outer covalent shell of 8, making it unreactive and stable, thus preventing the filament from burning. Air is a different case....

You find a little bit (0.150g) of a chemical marked Tri-Nitro-Toluene, and upon combusting it in oxygen, collect 0.204 g of CO2
avanturin [10]

1) Answer is: the formula is C₇N₃O₆H₅.

M(TNT) = 0.150 g; mass of the trinitrotoluene.

ω(N) = 18.5% ÷ 100%.

ω(N) = 0.185; mass percentage of the nitrogen.

m(N) = 0.150 g · 0.185.

m(N) = 0.02775 ·; mass of the nitrogen.

n(N) = 0.02775 g ÷ 14 g/mol.

n(N) = 0.002 mol; amount of the nitrogen.

n(CO₂) = 0.204 g ÷ 44 g/mol.

n(CO₂) = 0.0046 mol.

n(C) = n(CO₂) = 0.0046 mol; amount of the carbon.

m(C) = 0.0046 mol · 12 g/mol.

m(C) = 0.0552 g; mass of the carbon.

n(H₂O) = 0.030 g ÷ 18 g/mol.

n(H₂O) = 0.00166 mol.

n(H) = 2 · n(H₂O) = 0.0033 mol; amount of the hydrogen.

m(H) = 0.0033 mol · 1 g/mol.

m(H) = 0.0033 g; mass of the hydrogen.

2) m(O) = m(TNT) - m(N) - m(C) - m(H).  

m(O) = 0.150 g - 0.02775 g - 0.0552 g - 0.0033 g.

m(O) = 0.06375 g.

n(O) = 0.06375 g ÷ 16 g/mol.

n(O) = 0.004 mol; amount of oxygen.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 0.0046 mol : 0.002 mol : 0.004 mol : 0.0033 mol.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 2.33 : 1 : 2 : 1.66 /×3.

n(C) : n(N) : n(O) : n(H) = 7 : 3 : 6 : 5.

Which factor explains why coal dust in an enclosed space is more explosive than coal dust blown outdoors into an open space ? A.
ZanzabumX [31]

The correct option is B.

Coal dust refers to the powered form of coal. Because of the high surface area of coal dust it is highly prone to dust explosion, which involves rapid combustion of fine particles that are suspended in the air; this usually occur in an enclosed place. Coal dust in an enclosed place is more explosive than coal dust that is blown outdoor in an open space because the coal dust in an enclosed place is more concentrated due to restricted space, thus it is more liable to explosion.

Consider the following oxides: SO2, Y2O3, MgO, Cl2O, and N2O5. How many are expected to form acidic solutions in water? Consider
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Three of the five oxides are expected to form acidic solutions in water

Explanation:

We have different types of oxides : Acidic oxides, Basic oxides, Amphoteric oxides, Peroxides and Higher oxides.

Only acidic oxides will dissolve in water to give an acidic solution.

Considering the given oxides carefully,

  • SO2 will dissolve in water to produce H2SO3 which is acidic.

  • Y2O3 will dissolve in water to produce Yttrium(III) hydroxide which is basic.

  • MgO will dissolve in water only to produce Mg(OH)2 which is also basic.

  • Cl2O dichlorine mono oxide will dissolve in water to produce HClO which is acidic.

  • N2O5 will dissolve in water to produce HNO3 which is also acidic.

The atomic radius of magnesium is 150 pm. The atomic radius of strontium is 200 pm. What is the atomic radius of calcium
Anon25 [30]

Answer:

The atomic radius of calcium is approximately 175

Explanation:

Given that the atomic radius of magnesium = 150 pm

The atomic radius of strontium = 200 pm

Therefore, given that calcium comes in between magnesium and strontium in group 2 of the periodic table, the atomic radius should be half way between the length of the atomic radius of magnesium and strontium, given that the atomic radius is not a fixed quantity

Therefore;

The atomic radius of calcium is approximately given as follows;

The approximate atomic radius (200 + 150)/2 = 175 pm.
