question 135

Short Answer

The high-temperature superconductor,YBa₂Cu₃O₇ can be prepared by the reaction shown below.
2 Y₂O₃ + 8 BaO + 12 CuO + O₂ → 4 YBa₂Cu₃O₇
How many liters of oxygen at 800°C and 1.00 atm are required to completely react with 452 g of Y₂O₃?

Definitions:

Strike-Slip Fault

A type of fault where rock strata are displaced primarily in a horizontal direction, parallel to the line of the fault.

Normal Fault

A type of fault where the hanging wall moves downward relative to the footwall, typically caused by extensional forces.

Reverse Fault

A type of fault where the hanging wall moves upward relative to the footwall, usually occurring in areas of compression.

Thrust Fault

A type of fault, or break in the Earth's crust, where older rocks are pushed above younger rocks due to compressional forces.
