Let (CH2O)n be molecular formula,
(12+1+1+16)n=90.08
30n=90.08
n=3
molecular formula: (CH2O) 3= C3H6O3

Use the balanced equation given below to solve the following problem; Calculate the volume in liters of CO produced by the react

Elan Coil [88]

Answer: 40.3 L

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$

$\text{Moles of} Sb_2O_3=\frac{175g}{291.5g/mol}=0.600moles$

$Sb_2O_3+3C\rightarrow 2Sb+3CO$

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of $Sb_2O_3$ produces = 3 moles of $CO$

Thus 0.600 moles of $Sb_2O_3$ will produce= $\frac{3}{1}\times 0.600=1.80moles$ of $CO$

Volume of $CO=moles\times {\text {Molar volume}}=1.80moles\times 22.4L/mol=40.3L$

Thus 40.3 L of CO is produced.

densk [106]

Answer:

3.79 x 10²⁴atoms

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number moles of lead = 6.3moles

Unknown:

Number of atoms = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem,

1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ atoms

6.3 mole of Pb will contain 6.3 x 6.02 x 10²³ = 3.79 x 10²⁴atoms
