MgCO3---> MgO +CO2  , x mol MgCO3       
M(MgCO3)=24.3+12.0+48.0=84.3 g/mol

CaCO3--->CaO+CO2   , y mol CaCO3   
M(CaCO3)=40.0+12.0+48.0=100g/mol     
M(CO2)=44.0

x*84.3 + y*100=24.00
x*44+y*44=12.00            x+y=12/44=0.2727, x=0.2727-y
(0.2727-y)*84.3 + y*100=24.00
22.99-84.3y+100y=24.00
22.99+15.7y= 24.00,     15.7y=1.01,    y=0.06430 mol CaCO3
x=0.2727-0.06430=0.2084 mol MgCO3
0.06430 mol CaCO3*100g/mol=6.43 g CaCO3
0.2084 mol MgCO3*84.3g/mol=17.57 g MgCO3
what does it mean express your answer u?

Leokris [45]

Answer:MnCO3+2H2O----->MnO2+ HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Explanation:The equation to be balanced is

MnCO3 ------> MnO2+HCO3-

The oxidation number of Mn changes from +2 in MnCO3 to +4 in MnO2

Therefore two electrons must be added to the right as shown below:

MnCO3 -------> MnO2+ HCO3-+ 2e-Now,there is one negative charge HCO3- and 1 negative charge on the two electrons making a total of -3 charges on the right. There is zero charge on the left.

To balance the equation,add3H+on the right,to cancel out the charges.

MnCO3 --------> MnO2+HCO3-+2e-+3H+

Adding H2O to balance Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms:

MnCO3+2H2O ------->MnO2+HCO3-+2e-+3H+

A 25.0 g sample of an alloy was heated to 100.0 oC and dropped into a beaker containing 90 grams of water at 25.32 oC. The tempe
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The specific heat of the alloy C_{a} = 0.37 \frac{KJ}{Kg K}

Explanation:

Mass of an alloy m_{a} = 25 gm

Initial temperature T_{a} = 100°c = 373 K

Mass of water m_{w} = 90 gm

Initial temperature of water T_{w} = 25.32 °c = 298.32 K

Final temperature T_{f} = 27.18 °c = 300.18 K

From energy balance equation

Heat lost by alloy = Heat gain by water

m_{a} C_{a}  [T_{a} - T_{f}] = m_{w} C_w (T_{f} -T_{w} )

25 × C_{a} × ( 373 - 300.18 ) = 90 × 4.2 (300.18 - 298.32)

C_{a} = 0.37 \frac{KJ}{Kg K}

This is the specific heat of the alloy.

Suppose you had a balloon containing 1 mole of helium at STP and a balloon containing 1 mole of oxygen at STP. Which statement(s
AleksAgata [21]

Answer:

The true statement  is option A.

Explanation:

Using ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

where,

P = Pressure of gas =  1 atm

V = Volume of gas = ?

n = number of moles of gas = 1 mol

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of gas = 273.15 K

V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{1 mol\times 0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 273.15 K}{1 atm}

V = 22.42 L

This means that 1 mole of an ideal gas at STP occupies 22.42 liters of volume.

So, 1 mole of helium gas and 1 mole of oxygen gas will have same value of volume in their respective balloons at STP.

A vessel contains Ar(g) at a high pressure. Which of the following statements best helps to explain why the measured pressure is
Luda [366]

Answer:

4. The combined volume of the Ar atoms is too large to be negligible compared with the total volume of the container.

Explanation:

Deviations from ideality are due to intermolecular forces and to the nonzero volume of the molecules themselves. At infinite volume, the volume of the molecules themselves is negligible compared with the infinite volume the gas occupies.

However, the volume occupied by the gas molecules must be taken into account. Each <u>molecule does occupy a finite, although small, intrinsic volume.</u>

The non-zero volume of the molecules implies that instead of moving in a given volume V they are limited to doing so in a smaller volume. Thus, the molecules will be closer to each other and repulsive forces will dominate, resulting in greater pressure than the one calculated with the ideal gas law, that means, without considering the volume occupied by the molecules.

For lunch, a patient consumed 3 oz of skinless chicken, 3 oz of broccoli, 1 medium apple, and 1 cup of nonfat milk (see Table 3.
Volgvan

Lunch of a patient has 3 oz skinless chicken, 3 oz of broccoli, 1 medium apple, and 1 cup of nonfat milk

Energy content of 3 oz skinless chicken is = 110 kcal

Energy content of 3 oz broccoli = 30 kcal

Energy content of 1 medium apple = 60 kcal

Energy content of 1 cup non-fat milk = 90 kcal

So the kilocalories of energy patient obtained from lunch

                   = 110 kcal+ 30 kcal + 60 kcal + 90 kcal = 290 kcal
