1) Chemical equation

16Fe(s) + 3S8(s) ---> 8Fe2S3

2) Molar ratios:

16 mol Fe : 3 mole S8 : 8 mol Fe2S3

3) Convert masses in grams to number of moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

a) iron, Fe

mass = 3.0 g
atomic mass = 55.845 g/mol

=> number of moles of Fe = 3.0g / 55.845 g/mol = 0.0537 mol

b) Sulfur, S8

mass = 2.5 g
molar mass = 8*32.065 g/mol = 256.52 g/mol

=> number of moles of S8 = 2.5g / 256.52 g/mol = 0.009746 mol

4) Limiting reactant

Theoretical ratio                           actual ratio

16 mol Fe / 3 mol S8                 0.0537 mol Fe / 0.009746 mol S8

5.33                                               5.50

So, there is a little bit more Fe than the theoretical needed to react all the S8, which means the S8 is the limiting reactant.

5) Calculate the number of moles of iron (III) produced with 2.5 g (0.009746 moles) of S8

3moles S8 / 8 moles Fe2S3 = 0.009746 moles S8 / x

=> x = 0.009746 * 8 / 3 moles Fe2S3 = 0.026 moles Fe2S3

6) Convert 0.026 moles Fe2S3 into grams

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of Fe2S3 = 207.9 g/mol

mass = 0.026 mol * 207.9 g/mol = 5.40 g

7) Answer: option D)

Given that the molar mass of carbon is 12 g/mol and the molar mass of oxygen is 16 g/mol, calculate the molar mass of carbon dio
nekit [7.7K]
Molar mass of oxygen is:
M(O)=16 g/mol
Molar mass of carbon is:
M(C)=12 g/mol  
Molar mass of carbon dioxide is:
M(CO2)=M(C)+2*M(O)
 M(CO2)=12 g/mol+2*16g/mol
M(CO2)=44 g/mol

Select the property that is not a characteristic of an ideal recrystallization solvent.
dybincka [34]

Answer:

(C) The recrystallization solvent should be nonvolatile.

Explanation:

Recrystallization is the separation technique which is used to purify the solid compounds in their crystal or amorphous form.

Some properties follow the recrystallization process as:

The solids are more soluble in hot solvent as compared to the solubility in the cold solvent.

The solvent must have lower boiling point and can be volatile easily.

The solvent should not react with the compound.

The impurities must be soluble in the cool solvent, so that only the pure product crystallizes.

Hence, Answer - C which is not an ideal characteristic.

Draw one product that you would expect from the reaction of 1 mol of 1,3-butadiene and 1 mol of h2o, cat. h2so4?
Daniel [21]
1,3-butadiene is the simplest conjugated diene and undergoes 1,4 addition reaction in acidic environment.
Chemical reaction: CH₂=CH-CH=CH₂ + H₂O → CH₃-CH=CH-CH₂-OH.
CH₂=CH-CH=CH₂ - 1,3-butadiene.
CH₃-CH=CH-CH₂-OH - 2-buten-1-ol.
