Chemistry Questions

Acid Precipitation or Acid rain is caused by a mix of Sulfur Dioxide, Carbon Dioxide, Nitrogen Oxides.

A Chemical reaction that begins when compounds like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides are released into the air. These substances can rise very high into the atmosphere, where they mix and react with water, oxygen, and other chemicals to form more acidic pollutants, known as Acid Rains.

1 mole of CO2 contain 12gms of carbon and 44 gms of CO2

therefore  24 gms of carbon is present in 88 gms of CO2 or 2 moles of CO2

Atomic weight=number of neutrons+number of protons

The Aufbau Principle states that in the ground state of an atom, an electron enters the orbital with lowest energy first and subsequent electrons are fed in the order of increasing energies.

Moles of solute present in 1 litre or 1000ml of solution is called molarity

A half reaction is either the oxidation or reduction reaction component of a redox reaction. A half reaction is obtained by considering the change in oxidation states of individual substances involved in the redox reaction.
