b) Mass of MnO₂ = 5.981 g

    Mass of H₂O = 1.2384 g

c) Total Mass of Reactant consumed = 11.708 g

b) Given Reaction

            Zn(s) + MnO₂(s) + H₂O(l) → ZnO(s) + Mn(OH)₂(s)

  Mass of Zn = 4.50 g

  Moles of Zn = 0.0688 moles

   Now,

    Moles of Zn = moles of MnO₂ = moles of H₂O = moles of ZnO = moles of                   Mn(OH)₂

Hence ,

Moles of MnO₂ = 0.0688 moles

Mass of MnO₂ = 0.0688 × 86.9368 g

                        = 5.981 g

Similarly,

    Moles of H₂O = 0.0688 moles

     Mass of H₂O = 0.0688 × 18 g

                           = 1.2384 g

c) now ,

    Moles of  ZnO = 0.0688 moles

     Mass of  ZnO  = 0.06880× 81.3794 g

                              = 5.598 g

 Moles of  Mn(OH)₂ = 0.0688 moles

  Mass of  Mn(OH)₂ =0.0688 × 88.952 g

                                  = 6.11 g

Total mass of Product = 11.708 g

Total Mass of Reactant = 11.715 g

Hence,

    Total mass of reactant consumed = 11.708 g

c)  As total mass of reactant is more than that of mass of reactant consumed , Hence G is more than that of mass of reactant consumed .

G = - nFEcell

 

and no. of moles of reactant  is greater than that of number of moles of reactant consumed .

       Hence voltaic cell of given Capacity are heavier than that of mass of reactant consumed .

 Thus from above conclusion we can say that , Mass of the reactant consumed is 11.708 g.

5. Which are physical properties of a property of Aluminum metal?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Aluminum is a shiny, silvery white colored metal that is light in weight and strong. Th density of aluminum is 2.7 g/mL, which means the metal will sink in water, but is still relatively light

Hope this helps (:

Mark me brainliest if its good for you :D take care.

A sample of gas has a volume of 20.0 liters at 22.0° C. If the pressure remains constant, what is the volume at 100.0° C?
miv72 [106K]
The problem applies Charles' law since constant pressure with varying volume and temperature are given. Assuming ideal gas law, the equation to be used is \frac{ V_{1} }{ T_{1} }=\frac{ V_{2} }{ T_{2} }. We make sure the temperatures are expressed in Kelvin, hence the given added with 273. The volume 2 is equal to 25.2881 liters.

5. Base your answer to the following question on the
elixir [45]

Answer:

B) 2Crº + 6e- --> 2Cr3+

Explanation:

The process of oxidation is where electrons are lost. Thus, out of the 2 ions that change charge(Cr and Cu), we must choose the one where the oxidation number increases(which means electrons are lost). Cr goes from an oxidation number of 0 to an oxidation number of 3+, while Cu goes from an oxidation number of 2+ to 0. Thus, we are looking at the half reaction for Cr. Half reactions never have subtracting electrons, so the answer must be B. I am assuming that last plus should be a -->

Which has a greater surface tension: H20 or CH3CH2CH2CL? Explain
natali 33 [55]

Water will have higher surface tension.

Explanation:

There are strong hydrogen bonds and strong intermolecular forces present in water. Water is polar in nature that is why surface tension is present in it. The force of attraction between the particles is the main factor for surface tension.

The cohesion force in the liquid causes surface tension.

Since the other substance is acetone which does not form strong intermolecular forces hence it has low value of surface tension. They have low cohesive forces and get stick to the surface and are spilled instead of attaining minimal volume.
