A gas mixture at room temperature contains 10.0 mol CO and 12.5 mol O2. (a) Compute the mole fraction of CO in the mixture. (b)

The mixture is then heated, and the CO starts to react with the O2 to give CO2: CO(g) " 1 2 O2(g) 8n CO2(g)

Answer:

a. the mole fraction of CO in the mixture of CO and O2.

mole fraction = moles of CO/ Total moles of the mixture

Mole fraction of CO = 10/(10+12.5)=0.444

b. Reaction - CO(g)+½O2(g)→CO2(g)

Stoichiometry: 1 mole of CO react with 0.5mole of O2 to give 1 mole of CO2

So given,

At a certain point in the heating, 3.0 mol CO2 is present. Determine the mole fraction of CO in the new mixture.

3mol of CO2 is produced from 3 mols of CO and 1.5mol of O2

This means that unused mols are : 7mols of CO and 11mols of O2

Total product mixture = 3 + 7 + 11 = 21mols

mole fraction of CO = 7/21 = 0.33

A hiker enters an area where lichens, mosses, and fungi are growing. Which statement best describes this ecosystem? A It is popu

zysi [14]

A.

Explanation:

Pioneer plants are to plants species that appear first in virgin land – such an after a volcanic eruption. They are mainly lower plants such as lichen, fungi, and noses. These species can grow on rocks and break them down over time to form soil. This is due to the fact that the plants have very shallow roots that can even grow in the small crevices of rocks and can draw water from the atmosphere – moisture. This releases the nutrients in the rocks and makes them available to higher plants that have deeper roots. The ecology of the region will ultimately be succeeded by a climax community over time, mainly dominated by tree species.

Which of the following solutions would have [Fe3+] = 0.020 M?

Shalnov [3]

Answer:

None of the given options

Explanation:

Let's go case by case:

A. No matter the volume, the concentration of Fe(NO₃)₃ (and thus of [Fe³⁺] as well) is 0.050 M.

B. We can calculate the moles of Fe₂(SO₄)₃:

0.020 M * 0.80 L = 0.016 mol Fe₂(SO₄)₃

Given that there are two Fe⁺³ moles per Fe₂(SO₄)₃ mol, in the solution we have 0.032 moles of Fe⁺³. With that information in mind we <u>can calculate [Fe⁺³]</u>:

0.032 mol Fe⁺³ / 0.80 L = 0.040 M

C. Analog to case A., the molar concentration of Fe⁺³ is 0.040 M.

D. Similar to cases A and C., [Fe⁺³] = 0.010 M.

Thus none of the given options would have [Fe⁺³] = 0.020 M.

Calculate the percent of each component in the mixture. Show your calculations. Circle final answers.

Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

The question is incomplete; as the mixtures are not given.

However, I'll give a general explanation on how to go about it and I'll also give an example.

The percentage of a component in a mixture is calculated as:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

Where

E = Amount of element/component

T = Amount of all elements/components

Take for instance:

In $(Ca(OH)_2)$

The amount of all elements is: (i.e formula mass of $(Ca(OH)_2)$ )

$T = 1 * Ca + 2 * H + 2 * O$

$T = 1 * 40 + 2 * 1 + 2 * 16$

$T = 74$

The amount of calcium is: (i.e formula mass of calcium)

$E = 1 * Ca$

$E = 1 * 40$

$E = 40$

So, the percentage component of calcium is:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{40}{74} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{4000}{74}\%$

$\%C_E = 54.05\%$

The amount of hydrogen is:

$E = 2 * H$

$E = 2 * 1$

$E = 2$

So, the percentage component of hydrogen is:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{2}{74} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{200}{74}\%$

$\%C_E = 2.70\%$

Similarly, for oxygen:

The amount of oxygen is:

$E = 2 * O$

$E = 2 * 16$

$E = 32$

So, the percentage component of oxygen is:

$\%C_E = \frac{E}{T} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{32}{74} * 100\%$

$\%C_E = \frac{3200}{74}\%$

$\%C_E = 43.24\%$
