How many moles of Calcium Oxide are needed to produce 4 moles of Calcium Hydroxide?
1 answer:
Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, 2 moles of CaO are required to react with 2 moles of Ca(OH)₂.
<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>In first place, the balanced reaction is:
CaO + H₂O → Ca(OH)₂
By reaction stoichiometry (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:
- CaO: 1 mole
- H₂O: 1 mole
- Ca(OH)₂: 1 mole
The following rule of three can be applied: If by stoichiometric reaction 1 mole of Ca(OH)₂ is produced by 1 mole of CaO, 2 moles of Ca(OH)₂ are produced by how many moles of CaO?
moles of CaO= 2 moles
Finally, 2 moles of CaO are required to react with 2 moles of Ca(OH)₂.

Answer:
1s² 2s²2p³
Explanation:
If the atom has seven electrons, it is Element 7 (nitrogen).
In the Periodic Table, you count the electrons in all the subshells up to
No. 7.
In the first Period, you have filled the 1s level (2 electrons).
In the second Period, you have filled the 2s subshell (2 electrons) and put three electrons in the 2p subshell.
Thus, the electron configuration is
1s² 2s²2p³
Note how the superscripts tell you the number of electrons in each subshell: <em>2 + 2 + 3 = 7</em>.
