It is important to note that mass and mole pertain to different units of measurement, thus, 1 mole of one substance may have a lower or higher mass compared to a different substance. The mass of an object gives a measure of the number of atoms present in the substance while the number of moles of a substance refers to the amount of a chemical substance it has and is often used for chemical reactions.

For this problem, we first get the molar mass of each substance:

Molar mass of H2O = 18.0153 g/mol
Molar mass of C6H12O6 = 180.1559 g/mol

We then convert each substance into units of mass (grams), where:

1 mol H20 x 18.0153 g/mol = 18.0153 g H20
1 mol C6H12O6 x 180.1559 g/mol = 180.1559 g C6H12O6

It was then determined that 1 mole of glucose has more mass than 1 mole of water.

Aluminum metal reacts with dilute sulfuric acid to produce aluminum sulfate and hydrogen gas. what mass of aluminum will react w

SOVA2 [1]

Aluminium reacts with dilute sulfuric acid based on the following reaction:
2Al + 3H2SO4 ..............> Al2 (SO4)3 + 3H2

From the periodic table:
mass of aluminium = 27 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
mass of sulfur = 32 grams

Therefore:
molar mass of aluminium = 27 grams
molar mass of sulfuric acid = 2(1) + 32 + 4(16) = 98 grams

From the balanced chemical equation:
2 moles of aluminium react with 3 moles of dilute sulfuric acid.
This means that 34 grams of Al react with 294 grams of the acid

To get the amount of aluminium that reacts with 5.890 g of sulfuric acid, we will do cross multiplication as follows:
amount of Al = (5.890 x 34) / 294 = 0.6811 grams

Answer:

B.) A hot liquid or air that expands, becomes less dense, and rises or becomes more dense and sinks.

Explanation:

Convention is the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat.
