<span>It is the valence orbit that controls the electrical properties of the atom. The valence electron is referred to as a "free electron.' Valence electrons have the highest energy of all electrons in an atom; they are also the most reactive, meaning they are usually the electrons involved in bonding. When silicon atoms combine to form a solid, they arrange themselves into an orderly pattern called a crystal.</span>
Answer:
1. 12.6 moles
2. 8.95 moles
3. 2A + 5B → 3C
4. 48 moles
Explanation:
1. 2Fe + 3Cl₂ → 2FeCl₃
We assume the chlorine in excess. Ratio is 2:2
2 moles of Fe, can produce 2 moles of chloride
12.6 moles of Fe will produce 12.6 moles of chloride.
2. 2Fe + 3Cl₂ → 2FeCl₃
For the same reaction, first of all we need to convert the mass to moles:
500 g . 1mol / 55.85 g = 8.95 mol
As ratio is 2:2, the moles we have are the same, that the produced
4. The reaction for the combustion is:
2C₂H₆ (g) + 7O₂ (g) → 4CO₂ (g) + 6H₂O (l)
We assume the oxygen in excess.
Ratio is 2:6, so 2 mol of ethane produce 6 moles of water
Therefore 16 moles of ethane may produce (16 .6) / 2 = 48 moles
Answer:
The mass of reactants and products are equal hence the reaction obeys law of conservation of mass
Explanation:
The law of mass conservation states that for a closed system to all transfer of mass, the mass of system must remain constant over time. This means for a chemical reaction, the mass of reactants must equal the mass of products.
if 2.796g of Zn reacts with 2.414g of sulphur to produce 4.169g of ZnS ad 1.041g of unreacted sulphur, then it means that accorfing to the law of mass conservation, the mass of reactants (zinc and sulphur), must be equal to mass of products (zinc sulfide and unreacted sulphur)
Mass of reactants = 2.796g + 2.414g =5.21g
Mass of products = 4.169g + 1.041g=5.21g
