The Number of moles required for MTBE is 2 as per molarity based chemistry theories.

  1. A flammable liquid with a distinct, unpleasant smell is called methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE).
  2. Since the 1980s, it has been added to unleaded gasoline as a fuel additive to promote more effective burning.
  3. It is created by mixing chemicals like isobutylene and methanol. Gallstones can be removed with MTBE as well.
  4. In this type of treatment, surgically inserted special tubes are used to deliver MTBE directly to the gall bladders of the patients.
  5. Methyl tert-butyl ether is a colorless liquid with a distinct anesthetic-like smell. Vapors are narcotic and heavier than air. 131 °F boiling point. 18 °F is the flash point.
  6. It is miscible in water and less dense than water. Boosts the octane of gasoline.
  7. Therefore it has 2 moles of oxygen.

Calcium bicarbonate (Ca(HCO3)2) Ca:H:C:O = 1:2:2 ___ Lithium sulfide (Li:2s) Li:S = 2:__
Anastaziya [24]

Answer: The ratio of atoms in calcium bicarbonate ; Ca : H : C : O = 1:2:2:6.

The ratio of atoms in lithium sulfide; Li : S = 2 : 1

Explanation:

In calcium bicarbonate:Ca(HCO_3)_2

In a molecular formula of calcium carbonate there are:

Number of Calcium atoms = 1

Number of Hydrogen atom = 1 × 2 = 2

Number of Carbon atoms = 1 × 2 = 2

Number of Oxygen atoms = 3 × 2 = 6

So, Ca : H : C : O = 1 : 2 : 2 : 6

In lithium sulfide :Li_2S

In a molecular formula of lithium sulfide there are:

Number of Lithium atoms =  1 × 2 = 2

Number of Sulfur atoms = 1

So, the Li : S = 2 : 1

Solid aluminum metal reacts with aqueous zinc chloride to produce solid zinc metal and aqueous aluminum chloride
yuradex [85]

Answer:

2Al + 3ZnCl₂    →    3Zn + 2AlCl₃

Explanation:

Chemical equation:

Al + ZnCl₂    →    Zn + AlCl₃

Balanced Chemical equation:

2Al + 3ZnCl₂    →    3Zn + 2AlCl₃

This is the example of single displacement reaction. Al displace the zinc and form aluminium chloride and zinc metal.

There are two Al three zinc and six chlorine atoms on both side of equation so it is correctly balanced.

Thus it completely follow the law of conservation of mass.

Law of conservation of mass:

According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.

This law was given by french chemist  Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
