The number is far to big. A single mole of jelly beans would take up the whole planet earth. So imagine the numbers we would have to go into!

One mole is equal to avagadro number

Avagadro's number = 6.023 X 10^23

So it is a big big number. For pens or paper clips we do not need such big unit to express any figure.

Hence we cannot count the normal pens or pencils type macro objects in terms of moles

The mole is used for atomic level particles where in a small amount such large number of identities are present

Suppose 1.65 moles of C₆H₆ react with excess oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water.
zlopas [31]

Answer:

1 9.9

2 4.95

3 12.375

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we basically need to write a balanced chemical equation:

Like all other hydrocarbons, benzene burns in oxygen to yield water and carbon iv oxide as the only products. A balanced chemical equation is given below:

2C6H6(l)+15O2(g)→12CO2(g)+6H2O(g)

Let’s now proceed to answer the questions.

A. Number of moles of carbon iv oxide produced

From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that one mole of benzene yielded 6 moles of carbon iv oxide.

This means 1.65 moles of benzene will yield: 6 * 1.65 = 9.9 moles of CO2

B. From the balanced equation, we can see that one mole of benzene yielded 3 moles of water. Hence, 1.65 moles will yield 1.65 * 3 = 4.95 moles of water

C. To find the number of moles of oxygen consumed, we can see that 2 moles of benzene consumed 15 moles of oxygen. 1.65 moles of benzene would thus consume 1.65 * 15/2moles = 12.375moles of oxygen

Irina18 [472]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>866.57 g</h2>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume = 44.9 cm³

density = 19.3 g/cm³

We have

mass = 19.3 × 44.9

We have the final answer as

<h3>866.57 g</h3>

Hope this helps you
