<h2>Answer:  # of neutrons = 9</h2>

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

# of neutrons = mass number - atomic number

                      = 17 - 8

                      = 9

<h3>∴ number of neutrons in an atom of oxygen of mass number 17, is 9.</h3>

Aspirin can be prepared from salicylic acid ( C 7 H 6 O 3 CX7HX6OX3), which has a molar mass of 138.12 g/mol, and acetic anhydri
pychu [463]

Answer: The theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}  \text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{3.20g}{138.12g/mol}=0.023moles

mass of acetic anhydride = density\times volume =1.082g/ml\times 3.71ml=4.01g

\text{Moles of acetic anhydride}=\frac{4.01g}{102.04g/mol}=0.039moles

C_9H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_3O_2  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of salycylic acid require 1 mole of acetic anhydride

Thus 0.023 moles of  salycylic acid require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles  of acetic anhydride

Thus salycylic acid is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and acetic anhydride is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of salycylic give = 1 mole of aspirin

Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles  of aspirin

Mass of aspirin = moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.023moles\times 180.15g/mol=4.14g

Thus theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

Given that the density of iron is 7.9 g/cm3, what would be the volume of a 15.8 g piece of iron
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

2cm^3

Explanation:

Use the density triangle: D=MxV

Switch for variables, V=M/D

Plug in numbers, 15.8g/7.9g/cm^3=2cm^3

Consider the following reaction at 25 °C: 4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ⇌ 2Fe2O3(s) An equilibrium mixture contains 1.0 mol Fe, 1.0 × 10–3 mol
tino4ka555 [31]

Answer:

Kc = Kc = 8.0 * 10^9

Kp = 5.5 *10^5

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Temperature = 25.0 °C

Number of moles Fe = 1.0 moles

Number of moles O2 = 1.0 * 10^-3 moles

Number of moles Fe2O3 = 2.0 moles

Volume = 2.0 L

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Fe(s) + 3O2(g) ⇌ 2Fe2O3(s)

Step 3: Calculate molarity

Molarity = moles / volume

[Fe] = 1.0 moles / 2.0 L

[Fe] = 0.5 M

[O2] = 0.001 moles / 2.0 L

[O2] = 0.0005 M

[Fe2O3] = 2.0 moles / 2.0 L

[Fe2O3] = 1.0 M

Step 4: Calculate Kc

Kc =1/ [O2]³

Kc = 1/0,.000000000125

Kc = 8.0 * 10^9

Step 5: Calculate Kp

Kp = Kc*(R*T)^Δn

⇒with Kc = 8.0*10^9

⇒with R = 0.08206 L*atm /mol*K

⇒with T = 298 K

⇒with Δn = -3

Kp = 8.10^9 *(0.08206 * 298)^-3

Kp = 5.5 *10^5
