Thus problem is providing us with the mass of iron (III) oxide as 12.4 g so the moles are required and found to be 0.0776 mol after the calculations:

<h3>Mole-mass relationships:</h3>

In chemistry, we use mole-mass relationships in order to calculate grams from moles and vice versa. In this case, since we are given the mass of iron (III) oxide as 12.4 g one can calculate the moles by firstly quantifying its molar mass:

Fe_2O_3\rightarrow 2*55.85 g/mol+3*16.00 g/mol=159.7g/mol

Then, we prepare a conversion factor in order to cancel out the grams and thus, get moles:

12.4gFe_2O_3*\frac{1molFe_2O_3}{159.7gFe_2O_3} \\\\=0.0776molFe_2O_3

how many grams of calcium sulfate are produced from 10 grams of calcium nitrate and how many grams of calcium sulfate are produc
AlekseyPX

Answer:  8.30 g of calcium sulfate are produced from 10 grams of lithium sulfate.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Ca(NO_3)_2=\frac{10g}{164g/mol}=0.061moles

\text{Moles of} Li_2SO_4=\frac{10g}{110g/mol}=0.091moles

Ca(NO_3)_2+Li_2SO_4\rightarrow 2LiNO_3+CaSO_4  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of Ca(NO_3)_2 require = 1 mole of Li_2SO_4

Thus 0.061 moles of Ca(NO_3)_2 will require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.061=0.061moles  of Li_2SO_4

Thus Ca(NO_3)_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Li_2SO_4 is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of Ca(NO_3)_2 give = 1 mole of CaSO_4

Thus 0.061 moles of Ca(NO_3)_2 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.061=0.061moles  of CaSO_4

Mass of CaSO_4=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.061moles\times 136g/mol=8.30g

Thus 8.30 g of calcium sulfate are produced from 10 grams of lithium sulfate.

How many moles of carbon are in 3.7 moles of C 8 H11 NO2
Dafna1 [17]
In every molecule of C_{8} H_{11}NO_2 there is 8 atoms of Carbon.

IF we have 3.7 moles of C_{8} H_{11}NO_2 to find the number of moles of Carbon, just multiply by 8

3.7 * 8 = 29.6 mol Carbon

A sample of gas occupies a volume of 50.0 milliliters in a cylinder with a movable piston. The pressure of the sample is 0.90 at
alina1380 [7]
P₁ = 0.90 atm

V₁ = 50.0 mL

T₁ = 298 K

P₂ = 1 atm

T₂ = 273 K

V₂ = P₁ x V₁ x T₂ /  T₁ x P₂

V₂ = 0.90 x 50.0 x 273 / 298 x 1

V₂ = 12285 / 298

V₂ = 41 mL

Answer (1)

hope this helps!
