First, we apply the law of conservation of mass which states that the total mass in a system remains constant.
Therefore, there must be 5.00 g of sulfur and 4.99 g of oxygen in the product. Now, we determine the mass percentage using:

Mass % = (mass of sulfur x 100) / total mass of compound

Mass % = (5 * 100) / (5 + 4.99)

Mass % = 50.05%

The product contains 50.05% sulfur by mass.

If 0.905 mol Al2O3 is produced in the reaction, what mass of Fe in product's
Marrrta [24]

<u>Answer:</u> Amount of iron produced is 101.36 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the reaction of aluminium and iron oxide, the equation follows:

2Al+Fe_2O_3\rightarrow Al_2O_3+2Fe

By Stoichiometry of the reaction,

When 1 mole of aluminium oxide is produced, then 2 moles of iron is also produced.

So, when 0.905 moles of aluminium oxide is produced, then \frac{ 2}{1}\times 0.905mol=1.81moles of iron is also produced.

Now, to calculate the amount of iron produced, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

Moles of iron = 1.81 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.81mol=\frac{\text{Mass of iron}}{56g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of iron produced}=101.36g

Hence, amount of iron produced is 101.36 grams.

Hydrogen gas is explosive within the range of 4% - 75% v/v. Assuming that each student in your class produces 6 L of H2 and that
yan [13]
In order to compute this, we must first take a couple of assumptions of:
1) The laboratory size so we can calculate its volume
2) The number of students working in the lab so we know the total gas produced
Let the lab be
11 m × 9 m × 6 m
The volume then computes to be: 
594 m³
We know that 
1 Liter is 1 dm³
1 m = 10 dm
1 m³ = 1000 dm³
Therefore, the room volume in liters is:
594,000 Liters
Let there be 30 students in the laboratory
Total gas being produced:
6 × 30
= 180 Liters
This works out to be:
0.03% of Hydrogen by volume
Therefore, there is no risk of explosion given our assumption of size and students.

2H2+O2--&gt;2H2O, If you have 9 moles of Hydrogen gas (H2), how many moles of water can you form? (Enter just the number: not th
Naddika [18.5K]

If  you  have  9   moles  of hydrogen gas(H2)  the   moles of water that  can  be formed is   9 moles


<u><em>calculation</em></u>

2H2  +O2→ 2H2O

 The  mole  of H2O  is calculated   using the   mole  ratio.

that  is  H2:H2O  is   2:2  into simple form = 1:1

therefore if 9 moles  of  H2  reacted the   moles of H2O  =  9 x1/1  =  9 moles
