Aluminum bronze contains 92.0% copper and 8.0% aluminum. What maximum mass of aluminum bronze can be prepared from 73.5g of copp

er and 42.2g of aluminum? Initially I tried dividing 73.5g by 0.92, and I thought I have found the max mass of aluminum bronze. But then I tried using 70.0g of copper which gave me a result of about 82.17g of total mass of aluminum bronze. How should I calculate it accurately so that I can maximize the use of both metals?

The ratio of aluminum bronze components is:

92.0 Cu / 8.0 Al

The ratio of Cu and Al avilable is: 73.5 Cu / 42.2 Al

Then, it is evident that Al is in excess and Cu is the limitant material.

So, you need two work with the open proportion 92.0/ 8.0 = 73.5Cu / x

=> x = 73.5 * 8 / 92 = 6.39

Then, you can use 6.4 grams of Al and 73.5 grams of Cu to prepare 6.39g + 73.5g =  79.89.grams of Bronze.

I hope this helps.

How many moles of C2H2 are needed to react completely with 84.0 mol O2?
Mama L [17]
The reaction between C2H2 and O2 is as follows:
2C2H2 + 5O2 = 4CO2 + 2H2O

After balancing the equation, the reaction ratio between C2H2 and O2 is 2:5.

The moles of O2 in this reaction is 84.0 mol. According to the above ratio, the moles of C2H2 needed to react completely with the O2 is 84.0mole *2/5 = 33.6 mole.

A 45.0-gram sample of copper metal was heated from 20.0°C to 100.0°C. Calculate the heat absorbed, in kJ, by the metal.
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

1.386 KJ

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass (M) of copper = 45 g

Initial temperature (T1) = 20.0°C

Final temperature (T2) = 100.0°C

Heat absorbed (Q) =..?

Next, we shall determine the change in temperature. This can be obtained as follow:

Initial temperature (T1) = 20.0°C

Final temperature (T2) = 100.0°C

Change in temperature (ΔT) =?

ΔT = T2 – T1

ΔT = 100 – 20

ΔT = 80 °C

Next, we shall determine the heat absorbed by the sample of copper as follow:

Mass (M) of copper = 45 g

Change in temperature (ΔT) = 80 °C

Specific heat capacity (C) of copper = 0.385 J/gºC

Heat absorbed (Q) =..?

Q = MCΔT

Q = 45 × 0.385 × 80

Q = 1386 J

Finally, we shall convert 1386 J to KJ. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 J = 1 KJ

Therefore,

1386 J = 1386 J × 1 KJ /1000 J

1386 J = 1.386 KJ

Thus, the heat absorbed by the sample of the sample of copper is 1.386 KJ.

A 100.0 ml sample of 0.10 m ca(oh)2 is titrated with 0.10 m hbr. determine the ph of the solution after the addition of 400.0 ml
WINSTONCH [101]
The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
Ca(OH)₂ + 2HBr --> CaBr₂ + 2H₂O
stoichiometry of Ca(OH)₂ to HBr is 1:2
number of Ca(OH)₂ moles reacted - 0.10 mol/L x 0.1000 L = 0.010 mol
Number of HBr moles added - 0.10 mol/L x 0.4000 = 0.040 mol 
1 mol of Ca(OH)₂ needs 2 mol of HBr for neutralisation
therefore 0.010 mol of Ca(OH)₂  needs - 0.010 x 2 = 0.020 mol of HBr to be neutralised
but 0.040 mol of HBr has been added therefore number of moles of HBr in excess - 0.040 - 0.020 = 0.020 mol 
then pH of the medium can be calculated using the excess H⁺ ions
HBr is a strong acid therefore complete ionization
[HBr] = [H⁺]
[H⁺] = 0.020 mol / (100.0 + 400.0 mL)
      = 0.020 mol / 0.5 L 
      = 0.040 mol/L
pH = -log[H⁺] 
pH = - log [0.040 M]
pH = 1.40
pH of the medium is 1.40
