Barium sulfate, BaSO4, is a white crystalline solid that is insoluble in water. It is used by doctors to diagnose problems with

pshichka [43]

Answer:2

Explanation:

Ba(OH)2 contains two oxygen atoms

BaSO4 contains four oxygen atoms.

This means that barium sulphate contains two more oxygen atoms than barium hydroxide in its formula. This is clearly seen from the two formulae shown above.

Greeley [361]

Answer: The balanced equation is

Au(s) + 3HNO3(aq) + 4HCl(aq) ---> HAuCl4(aq) + 3NO2(g) +3H2O(l)

The function of HCl in a solution of Aqua regia, that is used to dissolve gold is to dissolve other metals like quartz or iron stone that surround the gold.

Explanation: To balance the equation, we check the ratio of each element in the reacting side and the product side ( left and right hand side). Let their ratio be equal be adding moles to the compound of the element or the element it's self in either side of the equation.

HCl which is called hydrochloric acid, is an acid that does not react with gold, but it react with every other substance, like your skin, metals etc. it is used to clean a gold, by dipping the gold inside it, all the metals on the surface of the gold will dissolve.

When dissolving a gold in aqua regia solution, HCL is added to prepare this solution because it will help to dissolve all other substance on the surface of the gold.

The Keq for the equilibrium below is 5.4 × 1013 at 480.0 °C. 2NO (g) + O2 (g) 2NO2 (g) What is the value of Keq at this temperat

kodGreya [7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The equilibrium constant for $NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons NO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)$ equation is $1.36\times 10^{-7}$

<u>Explanation:</u>

The given chemical equation follows:

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)$

The value of equilibrium constant for the above equation is $K_{eq}=5.4\times 10^{13}$

Calculating the equilibrium constant for the given equation:

$NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons NO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)$

The value of equilibrium constant for the above equation will be:

$K'_{eq}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{K_{eq}}}\\\\K'_{eq}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5.4\times 10^{13}}}\\\\K'_{eq}=1.36\times 10^{-7}$

Hence, the equilibrium constant for $NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons NO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)$ equation is $1.36\times 10^{-7}$

1. A gas has a pressure of 799.0 mm Hg at 50.0 degrees C. What is the temperature at standard Pressure?

larisa [96]

Answer:

A = 674.33mmHg

B = 0.385atm

Explanation:

Both question A and B requires the application of pressure law which states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is directly proportional to its temperature provided that volume is kept constant.

Mathematically,

P = kT, k = P / T

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2 = P3 / T3 =.......= Pn/Tn

Data:

P1 = 799mmHg

T1 = 50°C = (50 + 273.15) = 323.15K

P2 = ?

T2 = 273.15K

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Solve for P2

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

P2 = (799 × 273.15) / 323.15

P2 = 674.37mmHg

The final pressure is 674.37mmHg

P1 = 0.470atm

T1 = 60°C = (60 + 273.15)K = 333.15K

P2 = ?

T2 = 273.15K

P1 / T1 = P2 / T2

Solve for P2,

P2 = (P1 × T2) / T1

P2 = (0.470 × 273.15) / 333.15

P2 = 0.385atm

The final pressure is 0.385atm
