Answer:

carbon

Explanation:

Many organisms use carbon to make calcium carbonate, a building material of shells and skeletons. Other chemical processes create calcium carbonate in the water. The using up of carbon by biological and chemical processes allows more carbon dioxide to enter the water from the atmosphere.

Consider the reaction 2NO(g) 1 O2(g) ¡ 2NO2(g) Suppose that at a particular moment during the reaction nitric oxide (NO) is reac

<h2>a) The rate at which $NO_2$ is formed is 0.066 M/s</h2><h2>b) The rate at which molecular oxygen $O_2$ is reacting is 0.033 M/s</h2>

Explanation:

Rate law says that rate of a reaction is directly proportional to the concentration of the reactants each raised to a stoichiometric coefficient determined experimentally called as order.

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2NO_2(g)$

The rate in terms of reactants is given as negative as the concentration of reactants is decreasing with time whereas the rate in terms of products is given as positive as the concentration of products is increasing with time.

Rate in terms of disappearance of $NO$ = $-\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$ = 0.066 M/s

Rate in terms of disappearance of $O_2$ = $-\frac{1d[O_2]}{dt}$

Rate in terms of appearance of $NO_2$ = $\frac{1d[NO_2]}{2dt}$

1. The rate of formation of $NO_2$

$-\frac{d[NO_2]}{2dt}=\frac{1d[NO]}{2dt}$

$\frac{1d[NO_2]}{dt}=\frac{2}{2}\times 0.066M/s=0.066M/s$

2. The rate of disappearance of $O_2$

$-\frac{1d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{d[NO]}{2dt}$

$-\frac{1d[O_2]}{dt}=\frac{1}{2}\times 0.066M/s=0.033M/s$

How many atoms are in 766.3 grams of Li?

34kurt

1 mol of any substance is made of 6.022 x 10²³ units, these units could be atoms making up elements or molecules making up a compound.

In this case. 1 mol of Li is made of 6.022 x 10²³ atoms of Li

The molar mass of Li is 6.94 g/mol

Therefore mass of 1 mol of Li is 6.94 g

In 6.94 g of Li there are - 6.022 x 10²³ atoms

Then in 766.3 g of Li there are - 6.022 x 10²³ atoms / 6.94 g x 766.3 g = 665 x 10²³

There are 6.65 x 10^25 atoms of Li
