Answer:

A. Place the coefficient 2 in front of oxygen and nitrogen dioxide.

Explanation:

Balancing equations is a consequence of the law

of conservation of mass, according to this law, the mass of the reactants must be equal to the mass of the products, this means that the quantity of the atoms found in the reactants must be equal to the quantity of the products In this case, for the equation to be balanced, a coefficient of 2 must be added to oxygen and nitrogen dioxide.

To balance the given equation, we apply elemental balance and count each elements per side. There are 2 nitrogens in the left side so there should be 2 moles of NO2. Since there are already 4 moles of O in the right side, there should be 2 moles of O2. Hence answer is a. Place the coefficient 2 in front of oxygen and nitrogen dioxide.

Unit: Stoichiometry
Reika [66]

Answer:

1. 2.41 × 1023 formula units

2. 122 L

3. 7.81 L

Explanation:

1. Equation of the reaction: 2 Na(NO3) + Ca(CO3) ---> Na2(CO3) + Ca(NO3)2

Mole ratio of NaNO3 to CaCO3 = 2 : 1

Moles of CaCO3 = mass/molar mass

Mass of CaCO3 = 20 g; molar mass of CaCO3 = 100 g

Moles of CaCO3 = 20 g/100 g/mol = 0.2 moles

Moles of NaNO3 = 2 × 0.2 moles = 0.4 moles

1 Mole of NaNO3 = 6.02 × 10²³ formula units

0.4 moles of NaNO3 = 0.4 × 6.02 × 10²³ = 2.41 × 1023 formula units

2. Equation of reaction : 2 H2O ----> 2 H2 + O2

Mole ratio of oxygen to water = 1 : 2

At STP contains 6.02 × 10²³ molecules = 1 mole of water

6.58 × 10²⁴ molecules = 6.58 × 10²⁴ molecules × 1 mole of water/ 6.02 × 10²³ molecules = 10.93 moles of water

Moles of oxygen gas produced = 10.93÷2 = 5.465 moles of oxygen gas

At STP, 1 mole of oxygen gas = 22.4 L

5.465 moles of oxygen gas = 5.465 moles × 22.4 L/1 mole = 122 L

3.Equation of reaction: 6 K + N2 ----> 2 K3N

Mole ratio of Nitrogen gas and potassium = 6 : 1

Moles potassium = mass/ molar mass

Mass of potassium = 90.0 g, molar mass of potassium = 39.0 g/mol

Moles of potassium = 90.0 g / 39.0 g/mol = 2.3077moles

Moles of Nitrogen gas = 2.3077 moles / 6 = 0.3846 moles

At STP, 1 mole of nitrogen gas = 22.4 L

0.3486 moles of oxygen gas = 0.3486 moles × 22.4 L/1 mole = 7.81 L

The reaction of a metal with oxygen to form rust is called
azamat

The reaction of a metal with oxygen to form rust is called as redox reaction.

Explanation:

The process during which the surface of metal reacts with the oxygen ions present in air, it has tendency to get oxidized that is formation of an oxide layer on the surface of the metal. Generally, it occurs when metals like iron comes in contact with moisture or water. So the oxygen in moisture reacts with iron giving its electron and getting oxidized and reducing the surface of metal by forming metal oxide. So the complete process of formation of rust is termed as redox reaction. As here both oxidation and reduction is taking place.
