Answer:

-1071 Joules

Explanation:

The Joule was introduced as the SI unit for energy in 1925. One calorie is equal to approximately 4.184 joules(J). This is a conversion factor that we can write two ways:

(1cal/4.184J) or (4.184J/1cal)

(265 cal)*(4.184J/1cal) = 1071 J

Since the energy is leaving the system, it should be written with a minus sign: -1071J

Will magnesium and fluorine atoms most likely form an ionic bond or a covalent bond?

Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

Ionic bond

Explanation:

The magnesium atom gives up 2 electrons to form a magnesium ion, Mg2+ . The two electrons are transferred to fluorine atoms to form two fluoride ions, F–.

Give the chemical formula and systematic name for aurous sulfide, which is named using the older nomenclature. spelling counts!

Bingel [31]

Aurous is a cation of gold. Gold takes the name "aurum" (Au) with atomic number of 79. In its purest form, the element is bright, slightly yellow, soft, ductile, and malleable. The charge of aurous is +1. Sulfide, on the other hand, has a charge of -2.

Hence, the chemical formula of the compound is Au₂S and its systematic name is gold (I) sulfide.

One of the hydrates of MnSO4 is manganese(II) sulfate tetrahydrate . A 71.6 gram sample of MnSO4 4 H2O was heated thoroughly in

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

48.32 g of anhydrous MnSO4.

Explanation:

Equation of dehydration reaction:

MnSO4 •4H2O --> MnSO4 + 4H2O

Molar mass = 55 + 32 + (4*16) + 4((1*2) + 16)

= 223 g/mol

Mass of MnSO4 • 4H2O = 71.6 g

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 71.6/223

= 0.32 mol.

By stoichiometry, since 1 mole of MnSO4 •4H2O is dehydrated to give 1 mole of anhydrous MnSO4

Number of moles of MnSO4 = 0.32 mol.

Molar mass = 55 + 32 + (4*16)

= 151 g/mol.

Mass = 151 * 0.32

= 48.32 g of anhydrous MnSO4.

What mass, in grams, of CO2 and H2O is formed from 2.55 mol of propane?

oksian1 [2.3K]

Answer:

336.6 grams of CO₂ and 183.6 grams of H₂O are formed from 2.55 moles of propane.

Explanation:

In this case, the balanced reaction is:

C₃H₈ + 5 O₂ → 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O

By stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction), the following amounts of reactant and product participate in the reaction:

C₃H₈: 1 mole
O₂: 5 moles
CO₂: 3 moles
H₂O: 4 moles

Being the molar mass of each compound:

C₃H₈: 44 g/mole
O₂: 16 g/mole
CO₂: 44 g/mole
H₂O: 18 g/mole

Then, by stoichiometry, the following quantities of mass participate in the reaction:

C₃H₈: 1 mole* 44 g/mole= 44 grams
O₂: 5 moles* 16 g/mole= 80 grams
CO₂: 3 moles* 44 g/mole= 132 grams
H₂O: 4 moles* 18 g/mole= 72 grams

So you can apply the following rules of three:

If by stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ forms 132 grams of CO₂, 2.55 moles of C₃H₈ how much mass of CO₂ will it form?

$mass of CO_{2} =\frac{2.55 moles of C_{3} H_{8}*132 gramsof CO_{2} }{ 1 mole of C_{3} H_{8}}$

mass of CO₂= 336.6 grams

If by stoichiometry 1 mole of C₃H₈ forms 72 grams of H₂O, 2.55 moles of C₃H₈ how much mass of H₂O will it form?

$mass of H_{2}O =\frac{2.55 moles of C_{3} H_{8}*72 gramsof H_{2}O }{ 1 mole of C_{3} H_{8}}$

mass of H₂O= 183.6 grams

336.6 grams of CO₂ and 183.6 grams of H₂O are formed from 2.55 moles of propane.
