 it is highly reactive. this is because it is in the first chemical family it only has one valence electron making it very unstable 

hope it helps :P

How many grams of AlCl3 can be prepared from 3.5 moles of HCl gas?
poizon [28]

Answer:

156 g of AlCl₃ will be produced from 3.5 moles of HCl.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of HCl = 3.5 mol

Grams of AlCl₃ produced = ?

Solution:

Balanced Chemical equation:

3HCl + Al(OH)₃   →  AlCl₃ + 3H₂O

Now we will compare the moles of AlCl₃  with HCl from balanced chemical equation.

                   HCl          :           AlCl₃

                     3            :              1

                   3.5           :           1/3×3.5 = 1.17 mol

Mass of  AlCl₃ produced:

Mass = number of moles ×molar mass

Mass = 1.17 mol ×   133.341 g/mol

Mass =  156 g

Thus 156 g of AlCl₃ will be produced from 3.5 moles of HCl.

I need help with the solution
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

1

Explanation:

The empirical formula describes the simplest whole number ratio of each type of atom in a compound. To find this formula, you need to (1) convert grams of each element to moles (via their atomic masses) and then (2) find the ratio of each element (by dividing each molar value by the smallest mole value).

(Step 1)

Atomic Mass (Zn): 65.380 g/mol

Atomic Mass (C): 12.011 g/mol

Atomic Mass (O): 15.998 g/mol

10.40 grams Zn              1 mole
------------------------  x  ------------------------  =  0.159 moles Zn
                                   65.380 grams

   

1.92 grams C               1 mole
---------------------  x  -----------------------  =  0.160 moles C
                                 12.011 grams

7.68 grams O               1 mole
----------------------  x  ------------------------  =  0.480 moles O
                                 15.998 grams

(Step 2)

0.159 moles Zn / 0.159  =  1 atom Zn

0.160 moles C / 0.159  =  1 atom C

0.480 moles O / 0.159  =  3 atom O

The empirical formula is Zn₁C₁O₃. Therefore, the value that should be in the space is 1.
