If we assume the rate of diffusion of oxygen is 1 , then that of the unknown gas is 1/2.
From the Grahams law of diffusion;
R1/R2= √mm2/√mm1
 1/0.5 = √mm2/√32
   4 = mm2/32
mm2 = 128
Therefore the molecular mass of the unknown gas i 128 g/mol
I therefore think the gas is Hydrogen iodide
since, H=1, I= 127 , thus HI = 128 g/mol

What is the mass in grams of a pure iron cube that has a volume of 4.60 cm3
yuradex [85]
In order to determine the mass of a substance given the volume, we require the density. The density of iron is 7.87 grams/cm³

Now,

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

Mass = 7.87 * 4.6

36.2 grams of iron are present in the cube

please hurry! If 3.87g of powdered aluminum oxide is placed in a container containing 5.67g of water, what is the limiting react
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g

Mass of water = 5.67g

Unknown:

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.

Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;

         Al₂O₃  + 3H₂O  →  2Al(OH)₃  

Number of moles;

            Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

molar mass of Al₂O₃  = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{3.87}{102}  = 0.04mole

   

molar mass of  H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{5.67}{18}  = 0.32mole

From the reaction equation;

        1 mole of  Al₂O₃  reacted with 3 moles of H₂O

   0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O

But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.

This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant

A student sets up the following equation to convert a measurement. (The ? stands for a number the student is going to calculate.
kvasek [131]

Answer:

1 cm/s

Explanation:

From the question given above,

the student is trying to convert 0.010 m/s to a number in cm/s.

Thus, we can convert 0.010 m/s to cm/s as illustrated below:

Recall:

1 m/s = 100 cm/s

Therefore,

0.010 m/s = 0.010 m/s × 100 cm/s ÷ 1 m/s

0.010 m/s = 1 cm/s

Therefore, 0.010 m/s is equivalent to 1 cm/s
