Considering the definition of molar mass, the moles of gas used are 10.625 moles.

<h3>Definition of molar mass</h3>

The molar mass of substance is a property defined as its mass per unit quantity of substance, in other words, molar mass is the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

<h3>Amount of moles used</h3>

Natural gas has a molar mass of 16.0 g/mole.

You started out the day with a tank containing 200.0 g of natural gas.  So, you can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of molar mass 16 grams are contained in 1 mole, 200 grams are contained in how many moles?

amount of moles at the beginning=\frac{200 gramsx1 mole}{16 grams}

<u><em>amount of moles at the beginning= 12.5 moles</em></u>

At the end of the day, your tank contains 30.0 g of natural gas. So, you can apply the following rule of three: If by definition of molar mass 16 grams are contained in 1 mole, 30 grams are contained in how many moles?

amount of moles at the end=\frac{30 gramsx1 mole}{16 grams}

<u><em>amount of moles at the end= 1.875 moles</em></u>

The number of moles used will be the difference between the number of moles used initially and the contents at the end of the day.

moles used= amount of moles at the beginning - amount of moles at the end

moles used= 12.5 moles - 1.875 moles

<u><em>moles used= 10.625 moles</em></u>

<u><em /></u>

Finally, the moles of gas used are 10.625 moles.

An iron ore was found to contain 92.0% pyrite (fool's gold). Pyrite has the formula FeS2and is 46.5% iron. How many grams of iro
Liula [17]
Firstly calculate the grams in the last 8 percent before moving onto the pyrite section.
50.8x0.08=4.064g
We know that iron ore in this case has 92 percent pyrite which contains 46.5 percent iron so we do 50.8x0.92=46.736g from this we need to find 46.5 percent of the iron content in the 92 percent pyrite section then add this answer to the 8 percent of iron ore we found at the start.46.736x0.465=21.73224g
21.73224g+4.064=25.79624g of iron ore 25.8g(3sf)

What is the limiting reactant when 4 mol P4 and 4 mol S8 react.
In-s [12.5K]

Taking into account the reaction stoichiometry, P₄ will be the limiting reagent.

<h3>Reaction stoichiometry</h3>

In first place, the balanced reaction is:

8 P₄ + 3 S₈ → 8 P₄S₃

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:

  • P₄: 8 moles
  • S₈: 3 moles
  • P₄S₃: 8 moles

<h3>Limiting reagent</h3>

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

<h3>Limiting reagent in this case</h3>

To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 3 moles of S₈ reacts with 8 moles of P₄, 4 moles of S₈ reacts with how many moles of P₄?

moles of P_{4} =\frac{4 moles of S_{8} x8 moles of P_{4} }{3 moles of S_{8}}

<u><em>moles of P₄= 10.667 moles</em></u>

But 10.667 moles of P₄ are not available, 4 moles are available. Since you have less amount of moles than you need to react with 4 moles of S₈, P₄ will be the limiting reagent.

You have 1.0 mole of each compound below. which has the greatest mass?
kramer
(a) Iron (iii) sulphate:
From the periodic table:
mass of iron = 55.845 grams
mass of sulphur = 32.065 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Iron (iii) sulphate has the formula: Fe2(SO4)3
molar mass = 2(55.845) + 3(32.065) + 3(4)(16) = 399.885 grams

(b) Sodium hydroxide:
From the periodic table:
mass of sodium = 22.989 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
Sodium hydroxide has the formula: NaOH
molar mass = 22.989 + 16 + 1 = 39.989 grams

(c) Barium carbonate
From the periodic table:
mass of barium = 137.327 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Barium carbonate has the formula: BaCO3
molar mass = 137.327 + 12 + 3(16) = 197.327 grams

(d) ammonium nitrate:
From the periodic table:
mass of nitrogen = 14 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Ammonium nitrate has the formula: NH4NO3
molar mass = 14 + 4(1) + 14 + 3(16) = 80 grams

(e) Lead (iv) oxide
From the periodic table:
mass of lead = 207.2 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Lead (iv) oxide has the formula: PbO2
molar mass = 207.2 + 2(16) = 239.2 grams

From the above calculations, we can see that:
Iron (iii) sulphate has the greatest mass.

Sketch two amino acids side-by-side, on one of them label the functional groups, then show how the two can be joined together.
Alinara [238K]

Answer : The sketch of two amino acids side by side are shown below.

Explanation :

Amino acid : Amino acid are the acid that contains two functional groups which are carboxylic group, -COOH and ammine group, -NH_2.

When the two or more that two amino acids join together with the help of peptide bond, they produces polypeptide chain or protein.

The bond present between the two amino acid is called a peptide bond.

The peptide bond is a chemical bond that is formed between the two molecules when the nitrogen of one amino acid react with the carbon of another amino acid by releasing a water molecule.

Hence, the sketch of two amino acids side by side are shown below.
