4Al + 3K2SiF6 = 6KF + 3Si + 4AIF3 is the reaction for preparation of silicon by the reduction of K₂SiF6 with Al.

AlF3xH2O-based inorganic compounds are referred to as aluminium fluoride. They are all solids without colour. Aluminium fluoride is a crystalline (sand-like), odourless, white, or colourless powder. In addition to being used to make aluminium, it also functions as a flux in welding processes and in ceramic glazes and enamels.

Silicon (Si) is created by reducing potassium silicofluoride with aluminium as the reducing agent (K2SIF6). While K2SiF6 is reduced to Si in this equation, aluminium is oxidised to aluminium fluoride. As a result, the balanced equation describing aluminum's reduction of K2SiF6 to silicon non-metal is as follows: 4Al + 3K2SiF6 = 6KF + 3Si + 4AIF3

CH4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O
Scilla [17]

Answer:

9.8 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂O

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Atomic Structure</u>

  • Reading a Periodic Table
  • Moles
  • Avogadro's Number - 6.022 × 10²³ atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.

<u>Organic</u>

  • Naming carbons

<u>Stoichiometry</u>

  • Analyzing reaction rxn
  • Using Dimensional Analysis

Explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Unbalanced] CH₄ + O₂ → CO₂ + H₂O

[RxN - Balanced] CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O

[Given] 130 g CH₄

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

Avogadro's Number

[RxN] 1 mol CH₄ → 2 mol H₂O

[PT] Molar Mass of C: 12.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of H: 1.01 g/mol

Molar Mass of CH₄: 12.01 + 4(1.01) = 16.05 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

  1. [DA] Set up conversion:                                                                                   \displaystyle 130 \ g \ CH_4(\frac{1 \ mol \ CH_4}{16.05 \ g \ CH_4})(\frac{2 \ mol \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ CH_4})(\frac{6.022 \cdot 10^{23} \ molecules \ H_2O}{1 \ mol \ H_2O})
  2. [DA] Divide/Multiply [Cancel out units]:                                                           \displaystyle 9.75526 \cdot 10^{24} \ molecules \ H_2O

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs.</em>

9.75526 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂O ≈ 9.8 × 10²⁴ molecules H₂O
