To answer this problem, we write first the stoichiometric equation. Thus we have,
Cu2S + O2 => 2Cu + SO2
Next, we check if the equation is balanced or not.
(left) (right)
2 Cu = 2 Cu
1 S = 1 S
2 O = 2 O
So the stoichiometric equation is balanced, let's proceed in solving the theoretical yield of Cu given 5 g of Cu2S.
First, we solve for Cu2S in moles,
5 g Cu2S x <u>1 mol Cu2S </u> = 0.0314 mol Cu2S
159.16 g Cu2s
Secondly, convert moles of Cu2S to moles Cu. Note for every mole of Cu2S we get 2 moles of Cu. Thus,
0.0314 mo Cu2S x <u> 2 mol Cu </u> = 0.0628 mole Cu<u>
</u> 1 mol Cu2S
Lastly, we convert mole Cu to g Cu via multiplying by Cu's MW.
0.0628 mole Cu x <u>63.546 g Cu </u> = 3.99 g Cu or 4 g Cu<u>
</u> 1 mole Cu
<em>ANSWER: 4 g Cu</em>
there are 2 copper atoms on the left side of the arrow, but none on the other side. there are also 7 oxygen atoms on the left hand side, but only 5 on the right hand side of the arrow.
Well, when an atom attains a stable valence electron, it means that the outer electrons are complete and so cannot attain any more electrons. For the first shell, it is complete when it has 2 electrons, the second shell is complete when it has 8 electrons, all the other shells also have a particular number when complete. Anyway, i believe the answer is HYDROGEN because when HYDROGEN combines with another atom of HYDROGEN, the outer shell is completed. This is because HYDROGEN has only 1 electron. If the two HYDROGENS, which both have 1 electron combine, they make the electrons 2, which is complete for the first shell, HYDROGEN ends in the first shell. Since the electrons become 2, the shell is at stable valence. In all the other options, this happens;
NEON- It has 10 electrons, 2 in the first shell and 8 in the second. So the the shells are already complete, so it can't bond with any thing, which is completely against the question.
RADON- Radon has 86 electrons.
HELIUM- Helium has 2 electrons, so the shell is already full, and cannot bond, so it goes against the question. The question says BY BONDING.
So the answer is definitely 4) HYDROGEN
Hope i helped. Have a nice day, by the way, i'm very sure it's hydrogen.
Water<span> is capable of dissolving a variety of different substances, which is why it is such a good </span>solvent. Water dissolves more than any other liquid, therefor we called it the Universal Solvent.
Explanation:
Given problem:
Find the molar mass of:
SO₃ and C₁₀H₈
Solution:
The molar mass of a compound is the mass in grams of one mole of the substance.
To solve this, we are going to add the individual atomic masses of the elements in the compound;
Atomic mass;
S = 32g/mol; O = 16g/mol; C = 12g/mol and H = 1g/mol
For SO₃;
= 32 + 3(16)
= 32 + 48
= 80g/mol
For C₁₀H₈
= 10(12) + 8(1)
= 120 + 8
= 128g/mol
