Answer: 8.7 grams

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.  

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{4.6g}{27g/mol}=0.17moles

4Al(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3(s)

As oxygen is in excess, Aluminium is the limiting reagent and limits the formation of products.

According to stoichiometry:

4 moles of aluminium give = 2 moles of Al_2O_3(s)

Thus 0.17 moles of aluminium give=\frac{2}{4}\times 0.17=0.085mol

Mass of Al_2O_3=moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=0.085\times 102g/mol=8.7g

Thus the mass of Al_2O_3(s)  is 8.7 grams

Which college classes would a student most likely take to become an oceanographer? Select 4 choices.
Setler [38]

Answer:

marine biology

coastal ecology

astronomy

meteorology

Explanation:

As a college student, to study oceanography one will have to take classes in the field of marine biology, coastal ecology, astronomy and meteorology.

An oceanographer is someone or a professional that studies the ocean in order have more scientific knowledge about them.

Oceanography is a merger of geology, biology, chemistry, physics as it pertains to the ocean.

  • There is no need to study human anatomy to study oceanography.
  • Marine biology and coastal ecology deals with study of life forms in their marine environment.
  • Astronomy and meteorology helps to gain insight about the formation of the ocean and how weather relates to the ocean.

In a 71.4 g sample of nahco 3 3 ​ , how many grams of sodium are present?
sweet [91]

There are 19.5 g Na in 71.4 g NaHCO₃

Calculate the <em>molecular mass of NaHCO₃</em>.

1 Na = 1 × 22.99 u = 22.99   u

1 H   = 1 × 1.008 u =    1.008 u

1 C   = 1 × 12.01  u =  12.01    u

3 O = 3 × 16.00 u =  <u>48.00  u </u>

               TOTAL =  84.008 u

So, there are 22.99 g of Na in 84.008 g NaHCO₃.

∴ Mass of Na = 71.4 g NaHCO₃ × (22.99 g Na/84.008 g NaHCO₃) = 19.5 g Na
