if a 1.85g mass of zinc produces 475 mL og gas and your balloon weighs 0.574 g and the room temperature is 20.5°C. calculate the

amount of zinc needed to produce enough gas to get your balloon airborne by adding 1 mL to the required balloon volume so that its density is less than that of the surrounding air.

<span>You will use an ideal gas equation here. Let us denote 'x' as the unknown sample of zinc if another 1 ml of it is added to make a total of 476mL gas. The ideal gas equation is PV = nRT. Assume atmospheric conditions and then substitute everything to the equation.

(1atm)(0.476L) = (1.85 + x)(0.08206 L-atm/mol-K)(20.5+273K)
x = 1.83 g of zinc</span>

2Fe(OH)3 Fe2O3+3H2O how many grams of Fe2O3 are produced if 10.7 grams of Fe (OH)3 react in this way
sasho [114]

Answer: 7.98 grams of Fe_2O_3 are produced if 10.7 grams of Fe(OH)_3 are reacted.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      .....(1)  

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of} Fe(OH)_3=\frac{10.7g}{106.87g/mol}=0.100mol  

The chemical equation for the reaction is

2Fe(OH)_3\rightarrow Fe_2O_3+3H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of Fe(OH)_3 produce = 1 mole of Fe_2O_3

So, 0.100 moles of Fe(OH)_3 produce= \frac{1}{2}\times 0.100=0.05mol of Fe_2O_3  

Mass of Fe_2O_3 =moles\times {\text{Molar Mass}}=0.05mol\times 159.69g/mol=7.98g  

Hence 7.98 grams of Fe_2O_3 are produced if 10.7 grams of Fe(OH)_3 are reacted.

[15 Points, Stoichiometry and Gases]
KiRa [710]

The reaction is

CaC₂(s) + 2H₂O (l) -----> Ca(OH)₂ (s) + C₂H₂ (g) ​

As we have data of gas ethyne (or acetylene), C₂H₂

We can calculate the moles of acetylene and from this we can estimate the mass of calcium carbide taken

the moles of acetylene will be calculated using ideal gas equation

PV =nRT

R = gas constant = 0.0821 Latm/molK

T = 385 K

V = volume = 550 L

P = Pressure = 1.25 atm

n = moles = ?

n = PV /RT = 1.25 X 550 / 0.0821 X 385 = 21.75 mol

As per balanced equation these moles of acetylene will be obtained from same moles of calcium carbide

moles of calcium carbide = 21.75mol

molar mass of CaC₂ = 40 + 24 = 64

mass of CaC₂ = moles X molar mass = 21.75 X 64 = 1392g

What is the mass of a block with a volume of 18 cm^3, and a density of 9.2 g/cm^3?
Semmy [17]

Answer: 165.6grams

Explanation:

Mass of a block = ?

Volume of block = 18 cm^3

Density of block = 9.2 g/cm^3

The density of any object depends on its mass and volume.

i.e Density of block = Mass / volume

9.2 g/cm^3 = Mass / 18 cm^3

Mass = 9.2 g/cm^3 x 18 cm^3

= 165.6 g

Thus, the mass of the block is 165.6grams
