Answer:
Explanation:
The given equation is:
Based on the reaction stoichiometry:
2 moles of barium chloride (BaCl2) reacts with 2 moles of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to form 2 moles of barium sulfate (BaSO4) and 4 moles of HCl
Although the reaction is balanced, the correct convention is to depict reactions in terms of the lowest molar ratio. Therefore the coefficients (2,2,4 and 4) can be divided by 2 to give:
An increase in motion and less attraction between particles
Stoichiomety:
1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2
multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights
Atomic or molar weights:
C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol
Stoichiometry:
12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2
Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen
And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.
You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.
May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.
Is this a test or something else?
