Answer:

SrO = Strontiumoxide

Explanation:

Strontium is an element part of group 2. This means it has 2 electrons on the outer shell. This gives Strontium a positve electronic charge of +2.

Oxygen is an element, part of group 16. This means it has 6 electrons on the outer shell. To get the stable noble gas configuration, it needs 2 more electrons. This gives oxygen a negative electronic charge of -2.

This means 1 strontium atom can bind to 1 oxygen atom. To form Strontiumoxide (SrO).

When octane (C8H18) is burned in the presence of oxygen, the yield of products (carbon dioxide and water) is 87%. What mass of c
ahrayia [7]

Answer:

14.5g of CO₂ are produced

Explanation:

The reaction of octane with oxygen is:

C₈H₁₈ + 25/2O₂ → 8CO₂ + 9H₂O

<em>Where 1 mole of octane (Molar mass: 114.23g/mol) reacts with 25/2 moles of O₂ (Molar mass 32g/mol) to produce 8 moles of CO₂ and 9 moles of water.</em>

When 21.0 g of octane is burned with 19.0 g of oxygen gas you need to find <em>limiting reactant </em>to find how many moles of products are formed:

Octane: 21.0g ₓ (1mol / 114.23g) = 0.184 moles octane

Oxygen: 19.0g ₓ (1 mol / 32g) = 0.594 moles oxygen

For a complete reaction of 0.184 moles of octane you will need:

0.184 moles C₈H₁₈ ₓ (25/2 moles O₂ / 1 mole C₈H₁₈) = <em>2.3 moles of oxygen</em>

As you have just 0.594 moles of oxygen, <em>Oxygen is limiting reactant.</em>

Based on chemical equation, 25/2 of O₂ produce 8 moles of CO₂, that means theoretical yield of CO₂ with 0.594 moles of O₂ is:

0.594 moles O₂ ₓ (8 moles CO₂ / 25/2 moles O₂) = 0.380 moles of CO₂

But, as yield of products is 87%, moles produced of CO₂ are:

0.380 moles of CO₂ ₓ 87% = 0.331 moles CO₂ are produced.

As molar mass of CO₂ is 44g/mol, mass of CO₂ in 0.331 moles is:

0.331 moles CO₂ ₓ (44g / mol) =

<h3>14.5g of CO₂ are produced</h3>

What should go in the blank?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

³⁸₂₀Ca.

Explanation:

³⁸₁₉K –> __ + ⁰₋₁β

Let ʸₓA represent the unknown.

Thus the equation above can be written as:

³⁸₁₉K –> ʸₓA + ⁰₋₁β

Thus, we can obtain the value of y an x as follow:

38 = y + 0

y = 38

19 = x + (–1)

19 = x – 1

Collect like terms

19 + 1 = x

x = 20

Thus,

ʸₓA => ³⁸₂₀A => ³⁸₂₀Ca

Therefore, the equation is:

³⁸₁₉K –> ³⁸₂₀Ca + ⁰₋₁β
