The balanced chemical reaction is written as:

4Al + 3O2 = 2Al2O3

To determine the mass of oxygen gas that would react with the given amount of aluminum metal, we use the initial amount and relate this amount to the ratio of the substances from the chemical reaction. We do as follows:

moles Al = 16.4 g ( 1 mol / 26.98 g ) = 0.61 mol Al
moles O2 = 0.61 mol Al ( 3 mol O2 / 4 mol Al ) = 0.46 mol O2
mass O2 = 0.46 mol O2 ( 32.0 g / mol ) = 14.59 g O2

Therefore, to completely react 16.4 grams of aluminum metal we need a minimum of 14.59 grams of oxygen gas.

An earthquake on the ocean floor produced a giant wave called a tsunami. The tsunami traveled through the ocean and hit a remote
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

What cause an earthquake is when the earth plates shift and if theirs a drop in the tentonic plates a ripple effect like when you drop something in water will occur. The plates shift down the water in which the plate shift down the water will go in that direction due to gravity, but instead of equalizing the water will pick up some speed and velocity and begin to form a wave now. When an tsunami happens you know it coming cause the water moves back cause the water is picking up to much speed and due to cohesion its moves along with the move water and builds up. Creating a massive tidal wave known as tsunamis.

The equilibrium constant, Kc, for the following reaction is 0.967 at 650 K. 2NH3(g) N2(g) 3H2(g) When a sufficiently large sampl
AlekseyPX

Answer: Concentration of NH_3 in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M

Explanation:

Equilibrium concentration of H_2 = 0.729 M

The given balanced equilibrium reaction is,

                 2NH_3(g)\rightleftharpoons N_2(g)+3H_2(g)

Initial conc.            x                0           0

At eqm. conc.     (x-2y) M     (y) M   (3y) M

The expression for equilibrium constant for this reaction will be:

3y = 0.729 M

y = 0.243 M

K_c=\frac{[y]\times [3y]^3}{[x-2y]^2}

Now put all the given values in this expression, we get :

K_c=\frac{0.243\times (0.729)^3}{(x-2\times 0.243)^2}

0.967=\frac{0.243\times (0.729)^3}{(x-2\times 0.243)^2}

x=0.80

concentration of NH_3 in the equilibrium mixture = 0.80-2\times 0.243=0.31

Thus concentration of NH_3 in the equilibrium mixture is 0.31 M
