The density of iron is 7.87 g/cm3. The density of nickel is 8.91 g/cm3. A cube of each metal is placed into a cup of water. They

both displace the same volume of water. How is this possible?

They are more dense than water. This allows the force of bouyancy which is related to the volume of water displaced to be less than the force of gravity which makes the net force downward. The cubes just have to have the same volume to displace the same amount of water because they both sink

How many grams of hydrogen are produced if 30.0 g of zinc reacts?
alekssr [168]
<span>0.925 grams if using hydrochloric acid in the reaction. 0.462 grams if using sulfuric acid in the reaction. 0.000 grams if using nitric acid in the reaction. Assuming you're using HCl or a similar acid for this reaction, the equation for the reaction is: Zn + 2 HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2 So each mole of zinc used, produces 1 mole of hydrogen gas, or 2 moles of hydrogen atoms. So we need to look up the atomic weights of both zinc and hydrogen. Atomic weight zinc = 65.38 Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Moles zinc = 30.0 g / 65.38 g/mol = 0.458855919 mol Since we produce 2 moles of hydrogen atoms per mole of zinc, multiply by 2 and the atomic weight of hydrogen to get the mass of hydrogen produced. So 0.458855919 * 2 * 1.00794 = 0.92499847 grams. Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 0.925 grams. To show the assumption of the acid used, the balanced equation for sulfuric acid would be Zn2 + H2SO4 ==> Zn(SO4)2 + H2 Which means that for every mole of zinc used, 1 mole of hydrogen gas is generated (half that produced via hydrochloric acid). If nitric acid were used, the reaction is 4Zn + 10HNO3 ==> 4Zn(NO3)2 + N2O + 5H2O Which means that NO hydrogen gas is generated. The only justification for assuming hydrochloric acid is used is that it's a fairly common acid that's easy to obtain. But as shown above with 2 alternative acids, the amount of hydrogen gas generated is very dependent upon the exact chemical reaction occurring and asking "How many grams of hydrogen are produced if 30.0 g of zinc reacts?" is a rather silly question unless you specify EXACTLY what the reaction is.</span>

The crystalline hydrate cd(no3)2 ⋅ 4h2o(s) loses water when placed in a large, closed, dry vessel at room temperature: cd(no3)2⋅
Sever21 [200]

The given dehydration equation is,

Cd(NO_{3})_{2}. 4H_{2}O (s) ---> Cd(NO_{3})_{2}(s) + 4 H_{2}O(g)

Cadmiumnitrate tetrahydrate when heated dehydrates releasing the combined water as water vapor. The reaction produces 4 moles of gaseous product water vapor. So, the degree of disorder or randomness increases. Hence, the sign of change in entropy is positive.

This reaction is spontaneous at room temperature even if it is endothermic as the sign of change in entropy is positive.

Two students are working together to build two models. Both models will represent the molecular structure of sodium bicarbonate,
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Altogether for both models; two red jellybeans, two white jellybeans, two black jellybeans and six blue jellybeans.

<em>Note: Since no specific color was stated for oxygen atoms, the answer assigns blue colored jellybeans to represent oxygen atoms.J</em>

Explanation:

Sodium bicarbonate, NaHCO₃ is a compound composed of one atom of sodium, one atom of hydrogen, one atom of carbon and three atoms of oxygen.

Since red jellybeans represent sodium atoms, white jellybeans represent hydrogen atoms, black jellybeans represent carbon atoms and blue jellybeans represent oxygen atoms, each of the two students will require the following number of each jellybean for their model of sodium carbonate: One red jellybean, one white jellybean, one black jellybean and three blue jellybeans.

Altogether for both models; two red jellybeans, two white jellybeans, two black jellybeans and six blue jellybeans.
