Answer is: A. Chemical energy to electromagnetic energy and thermal energy.  

Balanced chemical reaction: 2Mg(s) + O₂(g) → 2MgO(s) + energy.

This is chemical change (chemical reaction), because new substance (magnesium oxide MgO) is formed, the atoms are rearranged and the reaction is followed by an energy change (exothermic reaction because energy is released).

Chemical changes (chemical synthesis) is when a substance combines with another (in this example magnesium and oxygen) to form a new substance.

In a fixed cylinder are 3moles of oxygen gas at 300Kelvin and 1.25atm. What is the volume of the container?
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

The volume of the container is 59.112 L

Explanation:

Given that,

Number of moles of Oxygen, n = 3

Temperature of the gas, T = 300 K

Pressure of the gas, P = 1.25 atm

We need to find the volume of the container. For a gas, we know that,

PV = nRT

V is volume

R is gas constant, R =  0.0821 atm-L/mol-K

So,

V=\dfrac{nRT}{P}\\\\V=\dfrac{3\ mol\times 0.0821\ L-atm/mol-K \times 300\ K}{1.25\ atm}\\\\V=59.112\ L

So, the volume of the container is 59.112 L

Larisa pumps up a soccer ball until it has a gauge pressure of 61 kilopascals. The volume of the ball is 5.2 liters. The air tem
Nuetrik [128]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

B.  0.33 mol

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

We are given;

Gauge pressure, P = 61 kPa (but 1 atm = 101.325 kPa)

                               = 0.602 atm

Volume, V = 5.2 liters

Temperature, T = 32°C, but K = °C + 273.15

thus, T = 305.15 K

We are required to determine the number of moles of air.

We are going to use the concept of ideal gas equation.

  • According to the ideal gas equation, PV = nRT, where P is the pressure, V is the volume, R is the ideal gas constant, (0.082057 L.atm mol.K, n is the number of moles and T is the absolute temperature.
  • Therefore, to find the number of moles we replace the variables in the equation.
  • Note that the total ball pressure will be given by the sum of atmospheric pressure and the gauge
  • Therefore;
  • Total pressure = Atmospheric pressure + Gauge pressure  

       We know atmospheric pressure is 101.325 kPa or 1 atm

Total ball pressure = 1 atm + 0.602 atm

                               = 1.602 atm

That is;

PV = nRT

n = PV ÷ RT

therefore;

n = (1.602 atm× 5.2 L) ÷ (0.082057 × 305.15 K)

  = 0.3326 moles

  = 0.33 moles

Therefore, there are 0.33 moles of air in the ball.

What element is being oxidized in the following redox reaction?
gregori [183]

Answer:

C is the element thats has been oxidized.

Explanation:

MnO₄⁻ (aq)  +  H₂C₂O₄ (aq)  →  Mn²⁺ (aq)  +  CO₂(g)

This is a reaction where the manganese from the permanganate, it's reduced to Mn²⁺.

In the oxalic acid, this are the oxidation states:

H: +1

C: +3

O: -2

In the product side, in CO₂ the oxidation states are:

C: +4

O: -2

Carbon from the oxalate has increased the oxidation state, so it has been oxidized.

What mass of CaSO3 must have been present initially to produce 14.5 L of SO2 gas at a temperature of 12.5°C and a pressure of 1.
german
When the reaction equation is:

CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)

we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.

to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:

PV = nRT

when P is the pressure =  1.1 atm

and V is the volume = 14.5 L 

n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)

R ideal gas constant = 0.0821

and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K

so, by substitution:

1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5

∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)

       = 0.68 moles SO2

∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles

so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:

when mass = moles * molar mass

and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol


∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g
