Because in a convection cycle heat rises and the cooler air sinks, more heat will be in the air than at the bottom.

mina [271]

Answer:

i. La (s) + O2 (g) => LaO2 (s)

ii. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O (s)

III. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O3 (s)

Explanation:

Hello there!

When you are given such a problem for completing the chemical equations, what you have to understand is that metals are found in groups I, II and III. While Oxygen is a group VI element.

From the above question I have considered that my La(s), solid is either Sodium (Na) - group I, Magnesium - group II and Aluminum - group III.

In a reaction, there is exchange of electrons given by their oxidation numbers (I, II and III - for our metals above)

The chemical equations are thus;

i. Na (s) + O2 (g) => NaO (s)

ii. Mg (s) + O2 (g) => Mg2O (s)

iii. Al (s) + O2 (g) => Al2O3 (s)

Relate this to the problem and it will be;

i. La (s) + O2 (g) => LaO2 (s)

ii. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O (s)

III. La (s) + O2 (g) => La2O3 (s)

I hope this helps you to understand better. Enjoy your studies

For 2,663 kg of a compound with the formula Al(SO), determine the following quantities (4 pts each); a) The number of moles of t

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

a) 35.485 moles of Al(SO)

b) 35.485 moles of S atoms

c) $2.136197(10^{25})$ Al atoms

d) 567.723 g of O

Explanation:

Let's define the following terms :

1 mol = $6.02.(10^{23})$ elemental units

For example :

1 mol of oxygen atoms = $6.02.(10^{23})$ oxygen atoms

Now, our compound has the following formula

Al(SO)

Where Al is aluminium

S is sulfur

And O is oxygen

All the subscripts are 1 so we can say the following :

1 molecule of Al(SO) has 1 atom of Al , 1 atom of S and 1 atom of O

In terms of moles :

1 mol of Al(SO) has 1 mol of Al , 1 mol of S and 1 mol of O

The molar masses of Al, S and O are

$molarmass_{(Al)}=26.982\frac{g}{mol}$

$molarmass_{(S)}=32.065 \frac{g}{mol}$

$molarmass_{(O)}=15.999\frac{g}{mol}$

If we sum all the molar masses = $(26.982+32.065+15.999)\frac{g}{mol}=75.046\frac{g}{mol}$

Finally, 75.046 g of Al(S0) is 1 mol of Al(SO) which contains 26.982 g of Al, 32.065 g of S and 15.999 g of O.

1 mol of Al(SO) contains 1 mol of Al, 1 mol of S and 1 mol of O.

Now we can calculate a),b),c) and d)

For a)

$2.663 kg=2663g$

75.046 g of Al(SO) = 1 mol of Al(SO)

2663 g of Al(SO) = x

$x=\frac{2663}{75.046}mol=35.485 mol$

2.663 kg of Al(SO) contains 35.485 moles of Al(SO)

b) and c) 1 mol of Al(SO) molecules contains 1 mol of S atoms and 1 mol of Al atoms

We have 35.485 moles of Al(SO) molecules so

We have 35.485 moles of S atoms

And 35.485 moles of Al atoms

If 1 mol = $6.02(10^{23})$

35.485 moles of Al have $(35.485)(6.02)(10^{23})=2.136197(10^{25})$ Al atoms

d) 75.046 g of Al(SO) contains 15.999 g of O

2663 g of Al(SO) contains x g of O

$x=\frac{(2663).(15.999)}{75.046} g$

x = 567.723 g of O
