Why is oxygen spelt o2

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

it's a diatomic molecule–which is why it is O₂.

Explanation:

Diatomic molecules are molecules composed of only two atoms, of the same or different chemical elements. Only a handful of elements on the periodic table are diatomic such as nitrogen, hydrogen, fluorine, chlorine, bromine, and iodine.

Answer 2
It has 2 parts of Oxygen atoms.

Balanced equation : C. CH₄ + 4Cl₂⇒  CCl₄+ 4HCl

Further explanation  

Equalization of chemical reactions can be done using variables. Steps in equalizing the reaction equation:  

1. gives a coefficient on substances involved in the equation of reaction such as a, b, or c, etc.  

2. make an equation based on the similarity of the number of atoms where the number of atoms = coefficient × index (subscript) between reactant and product  

3. Select the coefficient of the substance with the most complex chemical formula equal to 1  

Reaction

CH₄ + Cl₂⇒  CCl₄+ HCl

Give coefficient :

aCH₄ + bCl₂⇒  CCl₄+ cHCl

Make equation :

C, left=a, right=1⇒a=1

H, left=4a, right=c⇒4a=c⇒4.1=c⇒c=4

Cl, left=2b, right=4+c⇒2b=4+c⇒2b=4+4⇒2b=8⇒b=4

The equation becomes :

CH₄ + 4Cl₂⇒  CCl₄+ 4HCl

Explanation:

The chemical formula for the ionic compound aluminum sulfite is Al2(SO3)3. Explain why there are 2 cations for every 3 anions in this compound.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

While trying to write the chemical formula for a compound (a neutral molecule), one must identify and exchange the charge of the cation with that of the anion to become the subscript of one other. For example

Aluminium oxide has Aluminium (Al) and oxygen (O); since Al has a charge of 3+ (the cation) and O has a charge of 2- (the anion), the compound would have it's charges as Al³⁺O²⁻ and when the charges are exchanged to there subscripts, it would form Al₂O₃; thus there would be two cations of aluminium for every three anions of oxygen in order to have a neutral molecule.

This same explanation can be given to Aluminium sulfite. Aluminium sulfite has Aluminium (Al) and sulfite (SO₃). Al has a charge of 3+ (cation) while sulfite has a charge of 2- (anion), with the compound having it's charges as Al³⁺(SO₃)²⁻ and when the charges are exchanged to there subscripts, it would form Al₂(SO₃)₃ and would thus have 2 cations of aluminium (Al³⁺) for every 3 anions of sulfite (SO₃³⁻) in order to have a neutral molecule.

A gas sample has volume 3.00 dm3 at 101
kPa. What will be the volume if the
pressure is reduced to 14.2 kPa?

Answers

Answer:

21.3dm³

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume of gas = 3dm³

Initial pressure  = 101kPa

Final pressure  = 14.2kPa

Unknown

Final volume  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we use the Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

Mathematically;

                P₁ V₁  = P₂ V₂

P and V are pressure and Volume

1 and 2 are the initial and final states

Now insert the parameters and solve;

         101 x 3 = 14.2 x V₂  

                  V₂  = 21.3dm³

A sample of gas is stored at 15 atmosphere and has a volume of 5 liters.If the volume of the gas is reduced to 3 liters,what will the new pressure be?

Answers

The new pressure will be : 25 atm

Further explanation

Boyle's Law  

At a constant temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied  

[tex]\rm p_1V_1=p_2.V_2\\\\\dfrac{p_1}{p_2}=\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}[/tex]

P₁=15 atm

V₁=5 L

V₂= 3 L

[tex]\tt P_2=\dfrac{P_1.V_1}{V_2}\\\\P_1=\dfrac{15~atm\times 5~L}{3~L}\\\\P_1=\boxed{\bold{25~atm}}[/tex]

Answers

The volume of Oxygen at STP required : 251.25 L

Further explanation

Conditions at T 0 ° C and P 1 atm are stated by STP (Standard Temperature and Pressure). At STP, Vm is 22.4 liters/mol.

Reaction(combustion) :

2C₂H₂(g)+5O₂(g)⇒4CO₂(g)+2H₂O(g)

mol C₂H₂ :

[tex]\tt \dfrac{100.5}{22.4}=4.49[/tex]

mol ratio C₂H₂ : O₂ = 2 : 5, so mol O₂ :

[tex]\tt \dfrac{5}{2}\times 4.49=11.23[/tex]

volume  O₂ at STP :

[tex]\tt 11.23\times 22.4=251.55~L[/tex]

Or you can use Avogadro's hypothesis :

In the same temperature and pressure, in the same volume conditions, the gas contains the same number of molecules  

So the ratio of gas volume will be equal to the ratio of gas moles  :

[tex]\tt \dfrac{V_1}{V_2}=\dfrac{n_1}{n_2}\\\\\dfrac{100.5}{V_2}=\dfrac{2}{5}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{100.5\times 5}{2}=251.25~L[/tex]

Croposphere


Stratosphere


Mesosphere


Danosphere


Exosphere


Troposphere

Answers

Answer:

Mesosphere

Stratosphere

Thermosphere

Troposphere

Exosphere

Explanation:

The exosphere refers to the farthest region of the atmosphere that gradually fades into space.

The troposphere is the lowest layer of atmosphere. It is the layer where weather changes occur.

The thermosphere is right above the mesosphere but just below the exosphere. It is the layer where photoionization/photodissociation of molecules occurs thereby creating ions. This largely owes to interaction of molecules in this layer with ultraviolet radiation.

The stratosphere is composed of gases. Prominent among them is ozone which serves as a blanket against the sun's ionizing radiation.

The mesosphere lies above the stratosphere but just below the thermosphere. Temperature decreases steadily with height in the mesosphere.

what happens if the temperature of a system at equilibrium is increased?

Answers

Increasing the temperature decreases the value of the equilibrium constant. ... If you increase the temperature, the position of equilibrium will move in such a way as to reduce the temperature again. It will do that by favouring the reaction which absorbs heat.
There are multiple answers:

1. The relative amount of products at equilibrium increases for an endothermic reaction
2. The relative amount of products at equilibrium decreases for an exothermic reaction
(Extra) If the temperature of a system at equilibrium is decreased

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

The clock now has potential energy. When the alarm rings, the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and sound energy.

Alarm clock runs due to the electrical energy. Due to the electric current, the electric motor rotates the blade. It means that the electrical energy is converted into mechanical energy.

The mechanical energy finally generates vibrations which cause sound.    

Thus, energy transformation which takes place in alarm clock will follow the order-

Electrical to mechanical to sound.

In the reaction 2AgI + Na2S → Ag2S +2NaI, calculate the number of moles of AgI needed to react with 85.0 g

Answers

Answer:

8.5gNaI × 1molNaI/78gNaI × 234.7g AgI / 1 MOL AgI × 2Mol Ag I / 1mol Na2S=51.2 g of AgI reacts with Na2 S

Explanation:

conversion factor is used to make sure that all the units cancels with the other units and we only remain with the mass of Ag I which is 51.2g but since the number of moles can be calculated by dividing with the relative molecular mass therefore 51.2g/234.7gmol=0.22mol
