How many grams of aluminum metal can be produced when 50.0 grams of aluminum chloride decompose? 2AlCl3 → 2Al + 3Cl2

Chemistry

Arisa [49]3 years ago

Answer:

10.1 g of Al are formed

Explanation:

The reaction is:

2AlCl3 --> 2Al + 3Cl2

So 2 moles of aluminun chloride decompose into 2 moles of Al and 3 moles of chlorine.

Ratio is 2:2.

Let's convert the mass of salt into moles (mass / molar mass)

50 g / 133.34 g/mol = 0.374 moles.

As the ratio is 2: 2, if I have 0.374 moles of salt, I would produce the same amount of Al, just 0.374.

Let's convert the moles to mass

(Mol . molar mass)

0.374 mol . 26.98 g / mol = 10.1 g of Al are formed

Nurse Antonio measured out 7 grams of sodium chloride (NaCI). Using dimensional analysis, calculate how many moles of NaCI he we
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

0.119 moles

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass measured by Nurse Antonio is 7 grams of NaCl

To find,

The no of moles of NaCl

Solution,

The number of moles is given by

n=\dfrac{m}{M}

m is given mass

M is molar mass

For NaCl, molar mass is 23+35.5 = 58.5 grams

So,

n=\dfrac{7}{58.5}\\\\n=0.119\ \text{moles}

Therefore, there are 0.119 moles of NaCl.

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

the temperature difference between the water and the ice cubes causes heat to be transferred from the water to the ice cubes,.

Explanation:

Heat always travels to where it is colder. Think about how ice cubes melt. They are very cold so the heat is transferred to them from he warmer water and they melt.

hope this helps! i would really appreciate brainliest :)
