Calculate the mass of aluminum in 500 g of Al(C2H3O2)3

1 answer:

5 0

Answer: 66.2 g

Explanation:

1) The ratio of Al in the molecule is 1 mol to 1 mol .

2) The mass of 1 mol of molecules of Al (CH2H3O2)3 is the molar mass of the compound.

3) You calculate the molar mass of the compound using the atomic masses of each atom, in this way:

Al: 27 g/mol
C: 2 * 3 * 12 g/mol = 72 g/mol
H: 3 * 3 * 1 g/mol = 9 g/mol
O: 2 * 3 * 16 g/mol = 96 g/mol

Molar mass = 27 g/mol + 72 g/mol + 9 g/mol + 96 g/mol = 204 g/mol

4) Set a proportion:

27 g/mol x
-------------------- = ----------
204 g/mol 500 g

5) Solve for x:

x = 500 g * 27 g/mol / 204 g/mol = 66.2 g

Calculate the mass of chromium metal produced when 425.0mL of 0.25M chromium(ll) nitrate reacts with a strip of zinc that remain

Reil [10]

The balanced chemical equation for the production of chromium metal from the reaction of chromium(ll) nitrate reacts with a strip of zinc is:

3 Zn + 2 Cr(NO₃)₃ → 2 Cr + 3 Zn(NO₃)₂

This is a redox reaction, which <u>is a chemical reaction in which one or more electrons are transferred between the reagents</u>, causing a change in their oxidation states. In the proposed reaction, Cr oxidation state goes from +3 to 0, becoming metallic chromium, while Zn goes from being Zn⁰ to Zn²⁺.

<u>The mass of chromium metal produced in the above reaction will be,</u>

425.0 mL x $\frac{1 L}{1000 mL}$ x $\frac{0.25 mol Cr(NO_{3})_{3} }{1 L}$ x $\frac{2 mol Cr }{2 mol Cr(NO_{3})_{3} }$ x $\frac{51.9961 g Cr}{1 mol Cr}$ = 5.52 g

So, the mass of chromium metal produced when 425.0mL of 0.25M chromium(ll) nitrate reacts with a strip of zinc that remains in excess is 5.52 g of Cr.

When is the next lunar Eclipse and how do they happen?

kondaur [170]

°°The next Lunar Eclipse is on March 23, a Wednesday THIS YEAR - 65 days left!

°° A Lunar Eclipse happens when the moon passes directly behind the earth into its umbra, or, shadow. This can occur only when the sun, Earth and moon are aligned exactly, or very closely so, with the Earth in the middle. Hence, a Lunar Eclipse can occur only the night of a full moon. The type and length of an eclipse depends upon the Moon's location relative to its orbital nodes. Isn't that cool?
