Carbon monoxide (CO) gas reacts with oxygen (O2) gas to produce carbon dioxide (CO2) gas. If 1.00 L of carbon monoxide reacts wi
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1.98 g

Explanation:

The balanced reaction would be:

2CO + O2 = 2CO2

We assume that the gases are ideal gas so that we use the relation that 1 mol of an ideal gas is equal to 22.4 L of the gas at STP. From that relation, we get the number of moles and we can convert it to other units. We do as follows:

1.0 L CO ( 1 mol / 22.4 L ) ( 2 mol CO2 / 2mol CO ) = 0.045 mol CO2 produced

0.045 mol CO2 ( 22.4 L / 1 mol ) = 1 L of CO2

0.045 mol CO2 ( 44.01 g / 1 mol ) = 1.98 g of CO2

Determine the ratio of amount NaOH reacting per unit amount FeCl3. Enter an integer that represents x mol NaOH/1 mol FeCl3.
earnstyle [38]
Answer is: the ratio of amount NaOH reacting per unit amount FeCl₃ is 3 mol NaOH /1 mol FeCl₃.

Balanced chemical reaction:
3NaOH(aq) + FeCl₃(aq) → 3NaCl(aq) + Fe(OH)₃(s).
NaOH is sodium hydroxide.
FeCl₃ is iron(III) chloride.
Coefficient for sodium hydroxide is three and for iron(III hydroxide is one.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance.

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance.

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance.

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance.

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance.

Explanation:

a). iron ore - is a heterogeneous substance as iron core contains iron and other impurities

b). quartz - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made up of carbon

c). granite - is a heterogeneous substance as it is made up of multiple minerals.

d). energy drink - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains various substances mixed in it

e). oil-and-vinegar salad dressing - is a heterogeneous substance as oil and vinegar itself are different compounds

f). salt - is a homogeneous substance as it only contains one type of molecule

g). rainwater - is a heterogeneous substance as it contains water and other minerals

h). nitrogen - is a homogeneous substance as it is only made of one type of molecule.
