Answer:

Its because the steam promotes rust

Explanation:

Water vapour tends to oxidise iron...hence promoting rust

Answer:

Because iron would react with water. When hot water react with iron, it would make iron to expand and when cold water react with it, it would be crack so iron is not advisable to be made as steam boilers

Hope this helped :3

A solution is made by dissolving 58.125 g of sample of an unknown, nonelectrolyte compound in water. The mass of the solution is
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer:

molecular weight (Mb) = 0.42 g/mol

Explanation:

mass sample (solute) (wb) = 58.125 g

mass sln = 750.0 g = mass solute + mass solvent

∴ solute (b) unknown nonelectrolyte compound

∴ solvent (a): water

⇒ mb = mol solute/Kg solvent (nb/wa)

boiling point:

  • ΔT = K*mb = 100.220°C ≅ 373.22 K

∴ K water = 1.86 K.Kg/mol

⇒ Mb = ? (molecular weight) (wb/nb)

⇒ mb = ΔT / K

⇒ mb = (373.22 K) / (1.86 K.Kg/mol)

⇒ mb = 200.656 mol/Kg

∴ mass solvent = 750.0 g - 58.125 g = 691.875 g = 0.692 Kg

moles solute:

⇒ nb = (200.656 mol/Kg)*(0.692 Kg) = 138.83 mol solute

molecular weight:

⇒ Mb = (58.125 g)/(138.83 mol) = 0.42 g/mol

If the actual yield of the reaction was 75% instead of 100%, how many molecules of no would be present after the reaction was ov
artcher [175]
To be able to answer this equations, we must set given information. Suppose the reaction to yield NO is:

N₂ + O₂ → 2 NO

Next, suppose you have 1 g of each of the reactants. Determine first which is the limiting reactant.

1 g N₂ (1 mol N₂/ 28 g)(2 mol NO/1 mol N₂)= 0.07154 mol NO present

Number of molecules = 0.07154 mol NO(6.022×10²³ molecules/mol)
<em>Number of molecules = 4.3×10²² molecules NO present</em>

PLEAS HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! DUE TONIGHT
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

It is required answer.

Explanation:

Given that :

1. using balanced chemical equation:

ammonium acetate:

The balanced equation is:

NH₃ + H₂O ===> NH₄OH

when ammonia gas dissolves in water then we get the base in form of ammonium hydroxide.

When  NH₄OH reacts with CH₃COOH then we get ammonium acetate and water

NH₄OH + CH₃COOH ===> [CH₃COO]- & NH₄+ & H₂O

So, we can say that,

when we are adding an acid and a base together then we get the product of H₂O and given elements.

2. addition of barium hydroxide to sulfuric acid:

the balanced equation is

H₂SO4+ Ba(OH)₂--> BaSO₄+ 2H₂O

when acid and base reacts together than we get barium sulphate and water

when sulfuric acid and barium hydroxide.

Hence, it is required answer.

Which of the following statements is true about the following reaction?
MAVERICK [17]

The correct reaction equation is:

3NaHCO_{3} (aq) + C_{6}H_{8}O_{7} (aq) \rightarrow 3CO_{2} (g) + 3H_{2}O (l) + Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} (aq)

Answer:

b) 1 mole of water is produced for every mole of carbon dioxide produced.

Explanation: <u>CONVERT EVERYTHING TO MOLES OR VOLUME, THEN COMPARE IT WITH THE COMPOUND'S STOICHIOMETRY IN CHEMICAL EQUATION.</u>

a) <u>22.4 L of CO_{2} gas</u> is produced only when <u>\frac{22.4}{3} L of  C_{6}H_{8}O_{7}</u> is reacted with 22.4 L of NaHCO_{3}. So it is wrong.

b) Since in the chemical equation the stoichiometric coefficient of CO_{2}  and H_{2}O are same so the number of moles or volume of each of them will be same whatever the amount of reactants taken. <u>Therefore it is correct option.</u>

c)  6.02\times 10^{23} molecules is equal 1 mole of Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} if produced then 3 moles of NaHCO_{3} is required, which is not given in the option. So it is wrong.

d) 54 g of water or 3 moles of H_{2}O (<em>Molecular Weight of water is 18 g</em>) is produced when 3 moles of NaHCO_{3} is used but in this option only one mole of NaHCO_{3} is given. So it is wrong.
