Answer:

The second sample will produce 1563 grams of fluorine (F2)

Explanation:

The reaction will be MgF2 → Mg + F2

The stoichiometry ratio of MgF2 and F2 is 1 : 1.

That means for 1 mole of MgF2 consumed there is 1 mole of F2 produced.

The first sample produces 2.15 kg of magnesium and 3.36 kg of fluorine

The second sample produced 1 kg of magnesium and x kg of fluorine

This we can show in the following equation =

2.15kg / 3.36 kg = 1kg / x

2.15/3.36 = 0.63988

0.63988 = 1/ x

x= 1/0.63988  = 1.563 kg

1.563kg = 1563 grams

The second sample will produce 1563 grams of fluorine (F2)

A solution is made by mixing equal masses of methanol, CH 4 O , and ethanol, C 2 H 6 O . Determine the mole fraction of each com
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

Mole fraction of CH_4O = 0.58

Mole fraction of C_2H_6O = 0.42

Explanation:

Let the mass of CH_4O and C_2H_6O = x g

Molar mass of CH_4O = 33.035 g/mol

The formula for the calculation of moles is shown below:

moles = \frac{Mass\ taken}{Molar\ mass}

Thus,

Moles_{CH_4O}= \frac{x\ g}{33.035\ g/mol}

Moles_{CH_4O}=\frac{x}{33.035}\ mol

Molar mass of C_2H_6O = 46.07 g/mol

Thus,

Moles= \frac{x\ g}{46.07\ g/mol}

Moles_{C_2H_6O}=\frac{x}{46.07}\ mol

So, according to definition of mole fraction:

Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac {n_{CH_4O}}{n_{CH_4O}+n_{C_2H_6O}}

Mole\ fraction\ of\ CH_4O=\frac{\frac{x}{33.035}}{\frac{x}{33.035}+\frac{x}{46.07}}=0.58

Mole fraction of C_2H_6O = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42

A molecular covalent substance (such as co2) has a low melting point because the covalent bonds that hold the molecules together
Leona [35]

A molecular covalent substance (such as co2) has a low melting point because the covalent bonds that hold the molecules together are weak and do not require much energy to break:- False.

What are covalent bonds ?

An electron transfer that leads to the formation of electron pairs between atoms is known as a covalent bond. When atoms share electrons, a stable balance of the repulsive and attractive forces among them is known as covalent bonding. These electron pairs are also known as bonds or shared pairs.

It is a molecular compound, which is a mixture of at least two atoms—the smallest building blocks of matter—joined by a covalent bond. These atoms are joined by a covalent bond, which is formed when electrons are shared.

Which reaction has the highest atom economy for the production of C02?​
In-s [12.5K]

The highest atom economy

2CO + O₂ ⇒ 2CO₂

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

The reaction for the production of CO₂

Required

The highest atom economy

Solution

In reactions, there are sometimes unwanted products that can be said to be a by-product or a waste product. Meanwhile, the desired product can be said to be a useful product, which can be shown as the atom economy

of the reaction

the higher the atomic economy value of a reaction, the smaller the waste/ byproducts produced, so that less energy is wasted

The general formula:

Atom economy = (mass of useful product : mass of all reactants/products) x 100

<em>or </em>

Atom economy = (total formula masses of useful product : total formula masses of all reactants/products) x 100

So a reaction that only produces one product will have the highest atomic value, namely the reaction in option C
