Solution:
The molecular formula is PbSO₄, indicating lead sulfate
Option c.
Explanation:
The percentage makeup shows that in 100 g of this compound, there are:
68.3 g of Pb, 10.6 g of S, and (100 - 68.3 - 10.6) = 21.1 g of O
To find the moles of each element, we divide by their molar masses:
68.3 g Pb / 207.2 g/mol = 0.329 moles Pb
10.6 g S / 32.06 g/mol = 0.331 moles S
21.1 g O / 16 g/mol = 1.32 moles O
Next, we find the mole ratio by dividing each by the smallest number of moles:
0.329 / 0.329 = 1 Pb
0.331 / 0.329 = 1 S
1.32 / 0.329 = 4 O
Thus, the molecular formula is PbSO₄, representing lead sulfate.
No, two atoms that have identical mass numbers can never be considered isotopes of one another. This is due to the fact that for atoms to qualify as isotopes, they must consist of the same number of protons while differing in the number of neutrons. If two atoms share the same mass number, their proton count must also be identical, which implies these atoms cannot be isotopes of each other.
The mass is 150,000 grams. Multiply 100 by 50 by 30 to determine the container's volume, which equals 150,000 cm^3. Since a milliliter is equivalent to one cubic centimeter, and given that the density of water is one gram per milliliter, it follows that the mass of water is 150,000 grams.
The appropriate answer is option E. Gibbs free energy can be expressed using the equation: ΔG = ΔH - TΔS, where ΔH denotes the change in enthalpy of the reaction, T is the reaction temperature, and ΔS signifies entropy change. For our calculations, we have ΔH = -720.5 kJ/mol which converts to -720500 J/mol (given that 1 kJ = 1000 J), ΔS = -263.7 J/K, and T = 141.0°C, which equals 414.15 K. Consequently, the Gibbs free energy for the specified reaction at 141.0°C is calculated as -611.3 kJ/mol.
Vegetation cover serves as the most efficient and effective method to curb sediment loss. The roots of plants like grass interlink soil particles, aiding in erosion resistance, particularly against runoff water. Vegetation absorbs the force of raindrops, preventing soil particle detachment. Additionally, plants can lie flat resembling shingles on a roof, enabling runoff to travel over the soil rather than disturbing it.
Tall, erect vegetation functions as a barrier against wind, diminishing its force so that it cannot dislodge soil particles from the ground surface.
