How many molecules of H₂S are required to form 79.0 g of sulfur according to the following reaction? Assume excess SO2.

Chemistry
1 answer:
Serhud [2]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

9.89 x 10²³ molecules H₂S

Explanation:

To find the molecules of H₂S, you need to (1) convert grams S to moles S (via the atomic mass of sulfur), then (2) convert moles S to moles H₂S (via the mole-to-mole ratio from equation coefficients), and then (3) convert moles H₂S to molecules H₂S (via Avogadro's Number). It is important to arrange the ratios/conversions in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 3 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value.

Atomic Mass (S): 32.065 g/mol

2 H₂S(s) + SO₂(g) -----> 3 S(s) + 2 H₂O(l)

Avogadro's Number:

6.022 x 10²³ molecules = 1 mole

79.0 g S           1 mole            2 moles H₂S          6.022 x 10²³ molecules
---------------  x  ---------------  x  ----------------------  x  -------------------------------------  =
                        32.065 g            3 moles S                          1 mole

=  9.89 x 10²³ molecules H₂S

Maleic acid is an organic compound composed of 41.39% , 3.47% , and the rest oxygen. If 0.378 mole of maleic acid has a mass of
storchak [24]

Answer:

Empirical CHO

molecular C4H4O4

Explanation:

From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.

This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%

Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.

C = 41.39/12 = 3.45

O = 55.14/16 = 3.45

H = 3.47/1 = 3.47

Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.

Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO

Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.

To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.

Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g

Then 1 mole = xg

x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116

[CHO]n = 116

(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116

29n = 116

n = 116/29 = 4

The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4

Which element has chemical properties that are most similar to those of calcium?
iris [78.8K]
I think the answer is (1) Co. Because the element of Cobalt also has 2 electrons at the outer layer which is the same as Calcium. And the outer layer is an important factor which can affect the property of an element.
