Answer:

0.846 moles.

Explanation:

  • This is a stichiometric problem.
  • The balanced equation of complete combustion of butane is:

C₄H₁₀ + 6.5 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 5 H₂O

  • It is clear from the stichiometry of the balanced equation that complete combustion of 1.0 mole of butane needs 6.5 moles of O₂ to produce 4 moles of CO₂ and 5 moles of H₂O.

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

  • 1.0 mole of C₄H₁₀ reacts with → 6.5 moles of O₂
  • ??? moles of C₄H₁₀ are needed to react with → 5.5 moles of O₂
  • The number of moles of C₄H₁₀ that are needed to react with 5.5 moles of O₂ = (1.0 x 5.5 moles of O₂) / (6.5 moles of O₂) = 0.846 moles.

How many moles are in 5.5 x 10-23 molecules of H2O
masha68 [24]

Answer:

0.914moles

Explanation:

The number of moles in a substance can be got by dividing the number of atoms/molecules/particles by Avagadro's constant (6.02 × 10^23).

That is;

number of moles (n) = number of atom (nA) ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

According to this question, there are 5.5 x 10-23 molecules of H2O

n = 5.5 x 10^23 ÷ 6.02 × 10^23

n = 0.914 × 10^(23-23)

n = 0.914 × 10^0

n = 0.914 × 1

n = 0.914moles

Which of the following are always larger than the neutral atoms from which they are formed?
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

A) Cations

Explanation:

a) Cations have a positive charge and are larger than their neutral counterparts!

b) Anions have a negative charge and are smaller than their neutral counterparts

c) Metals can have either a positive or negative charge making it either a cation or an anion

d) Carbon is an element and it can have a charge anywhere from +4 to -4

A good way to remember that cations are positive is to think that CATions are always PAWSitive! ^-^

33.23 grams of a thin sheet of iron is completely oxidized in 7 days. How would you express the rate of conversion of the silver
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

A. 0.0440 moles/day

Explanation:

First, let's figure out how many moles 33.23 grams of silver is. We do this by dividing the number of grams by the molar mass of silver, which is 107.87 g/mol:

33.23 g Ag ÷ 107.87 g/mol = 0.3081 mol Ag

Now, let's divide this by 7 to get the rate per day:

0.3081 mol Ag ÷ 7 days = 0.0440 mol/day

Thus, the answer is A.
