<h2> The amount of Hcn  formed in grams  is = 0.06223 grams</h2><h3> calculation</h3>

write the equation for reaction

that is;  KCn + HCl → KCl + HCn

 step 1:find the moles of KCn reacted

moles of KCn = mass of KCn/molar mass of KCn( 65.12 g/mol)

= 0.150 g/ 65.12 g/mol =2.303 x10^-3  moles

step 2: use the mole ratio between KCn :HCn  which is 1:1  to determine the moles of HCn   which is also  2.303 x 10^-3 moles

step 3: find the mass  of HCn =moles of HCn  x molar mass of HCn

= 2.303 x10^-3 x 27. 02 =0.06223 grams

A compound that is composed of molybdenum (Mo) and oxygen (O) was produced in a lab by heating molybdenum over a Bunsen burner.
irakobra [83]
First, we determine the mass of each element from the data collected. We can get the mass of molybdenum Mo from the difference between the mass of crucible and molybdenum and the mass of crucible:
     Mass of molybdenum = 39.52 – 38.26 = 1.26 g Mo

We can calculate for the mass of molybdenum oxide from the difference between the mass of crucible and molybdenum oxide and the mass of crucible:
     Mass of molybdenum oxide = 39.84 – 38.26 = 1.58g 

We can now compute for the mass of oxygen O by subtracting the mass of molybdenum from the mass of molybdenum oxide:
     Mass of oxygen in molybdenum oxide = 1.58 – 1.26 = 0.32g O

To convert mass to moles, we use the molar mass of each element.
     1.26 g Mo * 1 mol Mo / 95.94 g Mo = 0.0131 mol Mo
     0.32 g O * 1 mol O / 15.999 g O = 0.0200 mol O

0.0131 mol is the smallest number of moles. We divide each mole value by this number:
     0.0131 mol Mo / 0.0131 = 1
     0.0200 mol O / 0.0131 = 1.53

Multiplying these results by 2 to get the lowest whole number ratio,
     0.0131 mol Mo / 0.0131 = 1 * 2 = 2
     0.0200 mol O / 0.0131 = 1.5 * 2 = 3
Thus, we can write the empirical formula as Mo2O3.

Which product forms from the synthesis reaction between lithium (Li) and oxygen (O)?
Advocard [28]

Answer:

A Li2O

Explanation:

Li has a 1+ charge and O has a 2- charge so to balance the charges there needs to be 2 Li for every 1 O
