Answer:

3.0 moles Al₂O₃

Explanation:

We do not know which of the reactants is the limiting reactant. Therefore, you need to convert both of the given mole values into the product. This can be done using the mole-to-mole ratio made up of the balanced equation coefficients.

4 Al + 3 O₂ -----> 2 Al₂O₃

6.0 moles Al            2 moles Al₂O₃
----------------------  x  -------------------------  =  3.0 moles Al₂O₃
                                    4 moles Al

4.0 moles O₂           2 moles Al₂O₃
----------------------  x  -------------------------  =  2.7 moles Al₂O₃
                                    3 moles O₂

As you can see, O₂ produces the smaller amount of product. This means O₂ is the limiting reactant. Remember, the limiting reactant is the reactant which runs out before the other reactant(s) are completely reacted. As such, the actual amount of Al₂O₃ produced is 2.7 moles.

However, since this problem is directly addressing how much Al₂O₃ is produced from Al, the answer you most likely are looking for is 3.0 moles Al₂O₃.

What fraction of the carbon dioxide exhaled by animals is generated by the reactions of the citric acid cycle
puteri [66]

Answer:

1/3

Explanation:

Pyruvate is produced by the glycolysis in cytoplasm. The oxidation of pyruvate takes place in mitochondrial matrix.  

Pyruvate is converted to acetyl-CoA in the reaction given below:

Pyruvate + NAD⁺ + CoA-SH ⇒ acetyl-CoA + NADH + CO₂

1 molecule of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 1 molecule of pyruvate.

Also,  

2 molecules of carbon dioxide is eliminated from 2 molecules of pyruvate (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate).

Also, acetyl-CoA further goes into the citric acid cycle and produces 2 molecules of carbon dioxide.

Thus pyruvate produces total 3 molecules of CO₂  and hence glucose produces 6 molecules of CO₂ (as glucose on glycolysis yields 2 molecules of pyruvate)

Thus,

<u>Fraction = 2/6 = 1/3</u>

Given 2.91 moles of a gas in a 500 milliliter-container, if the temperature is found to be 31 degrees Celsius, what is the press
kari74 [83]
Use the PV = nRT equation T is in Kelvins = 31 + 273 = 304 K

P(0.5) = (2.91)(0.0821)(304)
P(0.5) = 72.6289
P = 145.25 atm or 1.45x10^2 atm

In a certain industrial process involving a heterogeneous catalyst, the volume of the catalyst (in the shape of a sphere) is 10.
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

D

Explanation:

We know that the

reaction catalyzing power of a catalyst ∝ surface area exposed by it

Given

volume V1= 10 cm^3

⇒\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= 10

hence r= 1.545 cm

also, surface area S1= 4\pi r^2

now when the sphere is broken down into 8 smaller spheres

S2= 8×4πr'^2

now, equating V1 and V2 ( as the volume must remain same )

\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3=8\times\frac{4}{3} \pi r'^3

and solving we get

r'= r/2

therefore, S2=8\times4\pi\frac{r}{2}^2

S2=2\times4\pi r^2

S2= 2S1

hence the correct answer is

. The second run has twice the surface area.

Increase, because you need heat to melt a solid to a liquid, so the temperature will have to get greater.
