1) Chemical reaction:

Fe2O3 + 2Al ---> Al2O3 + 2Fe

2) molar ratios

1 mol Fe2O3 : 2Al : 1 mol Al2O3 : 2 mol Fe

3) Convert 15.0 g of iron into moles

atomic mass Fe = 55.8 g/mol

moles = mass in grams / atomic mass = 15.0 g / 55.8 g/mol = 0.269 mol

4) Use proportions to determine the moles of Fe2O3, Al, and Al2O3

a) 1mol Fe2O3 / 2 mol Fe = x / 0.269 mol Fe

x =

=> x = 0.269 mol Fe * 1 mol Fe2O3 / 2 mol Fe = 0.134 mol Fe2O3

b) 2 mol Al / 2 mol Fe = x / 0.269 mol Fe

=> x = 0.269 mol Al

c) 2 mol Fe / 1 mol Al2O3 = 0.269 mol Fe / x

=> x = 0.269 mol Fe * 1 mol Al2O3 / 2 mol Fe

x = 0.134 mol Al2O3

5) Convert moles to grams

a) Fe2O3

molar mass Fe2O3 = 2* 55.8 g/mol + 3*16g/mol = 159.6 g/mol

mass = molar mass * number of moles

mass = 159.6 g/mol * 0.134 mol = 21.4 g

b) Al

atomic mass = 27.0 g/mol

mass = number of moles * atomic mass = 0.269 mol * 27.0 g/mol = 7.26 g

c) Al2O3

molar mass = 2 * 27.0 g/mol + 3*16.0 g/mol = 102.0g/mol

mass Al2O3 = numer of moles * molar mass = 0.134 mol * 102.0 g/mol = 13.7 g

Answers:

21.4 g Fe2O3

7.26 g Al

13.7 g Al2O3

steposvetlana [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

carbon in  group 4A needs 4 more electrons to be stable

hydrogen in group 1A has one electron needs 1 more t o be stale

oxygen in group 6A has 6 and needs 2 more to be stable

They all obtain this by sharing electrons  8 around C &O, 2 around H

The electronegativity values of fluorine, oxygen, and hydrogen are compared in the table. Comparison of Electronegativity Elemen
Dvinal [7]

The hydrogen bonding in H₂O is stronger than that of HF

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attraction in which electrostatic attraction is established between hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom of a neighboring molecule.

  • The strength of hydrogen bonds depends on the how electronegative an atom is.
  • Electronegativity refers to the tendency of an atom to gain electrons.
  • The higher the value, the higher the tendency.
  • This why oxygen with a higher electronegativity will form a stronger hydrogen bond with hydrogen compared to fluorine.

Formula mass, molar mass and Avagadro's number.

Explanation:

number of atoms in a compound can be calculated by knowing the molar mass of the compound or element, the result will be multiplied by avagadro's number (6.022*10^23)

1 mole of a substance is equal to Avagadro number of atoms.

If the number of moles is known of a compound or element its molar mass can be calculated as:

n= Weight of the compound/element given/ molecular weight of the same.

  formula mass is the mass of compound ie chemical compound formed with different molecules. its mass is calculated by adding the molar masses of all the elements taking part in its assembly.

Which substance is a base? HCOOH RbOH H2CO3 NaNO3
Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

RbOH

Explanation:

For this question, we have to remember what is the definition of a base. A base is a compound that has the <u>ability to produce hydroxyl ions</u> OH^-, so:

AOH~->~A^+~+~OH^-

With this in mind we can write the <u>reaction for each substance:</u>

HCOOH~->~HCOO^-~+~H^+

RbOH~->~Rb^+~+~OH^-

H_2CO_3~->~CO_3^-^2~+~2H^+

NaNO_3~->~Na^+~+~NO_3^-

The only compound that fits with the definition is RbOH, so this is our <u>base</u>.

I hope it helps!
