1) We need to convert 12.0 g of H2 into moles of H2, and <span> 74.5 grams of CO into moles of CO
</span><span>Molar mass of H2:    M(H2) = 2*1.0= 2.0 g/mol
Molar mass of CO:   M(CO) = 12.0 +16.0 = 28.0 g/mol

</span>12.0 g  H2 * 1 mol/2.0 g = 6.0 mol H2
74.5 g CO * 1 mol/28.0 g = 2.66 mol CO

<span>2) Now we can use reaction to find out what substance will react completely, and what will be leftover. 

                                  CO       +         2H2   ------->      CH3OH  
                                 1 mol              2 mol
given                        2.66 mol          6 mol (excess)

How much
we need  CO?           3 mol              6 mol

We see that H2 will be leftover, because for 6 moles H2  we need 3 moles CO, but we have only 2.66 mol  CO.
So, CO will react completely, and we are going to use CO to find  the mass of CH3OH.

3)                              </span>CO       +         2H2   ------->      CH3OH  
                                 1 mol                                        1 mol
                                2.66 mol                                    2.66 mol

4) We have 2.66 mol CH3OH
Molar mass CH3OH : M(CH3OH) = 12.0 +  4*1.0 + 16.0 = 32.0 g/mol

2.66 mol CH3OH * 32.0 g CH3OH/ 1 mol CH3OH =  85.12 g CH3OH
<span>
Answer is </span>D) 85.12 grams.

What are valence electrons and why are they so important in chemistry?
stealth61 [152]

valance electrons that reside in the outermost shell of an atom in the highest energy level. They are important to atoms because the fewer valence electrons that the atom holds, it becomes less stable.

I take honors chemistry I hope this helps.

Osmotic pressure Π is given by the relation:Π = iMRTwhere i is the van’t Hoff factor, M is the concentration of solute, R is the
lions [1.4K]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of solute is 0.503 mol/L

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the concentration of solute, we use the equation for osmotic pressure, which is:

\pi=icRT

where,

\pi = osmotic pressure of the solution = 24 atm

i = Van't hoff factor = 2 (for NaCl)

c = concentration of solute = ?

R = Gas constant = 0.08\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

T = temperature of the solution = 25^oC=[273+25]=298K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

24atm=2\times c\times 0.08\text{ L.atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times 298K\\\\c=0.503mol/L

Hence, the concentration of solute is 0.503 mol/L

A 72.0 mL aliquot of a 1.40 M solution is diluted to a total volume of 248 mL. A 124 mL portion of that solution is diluted by a
Aliun [14]

Answer: 0.20 M

Explanation:

According to the dilution law,

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1 = molarity of stock solution = 1.40 M

V_1 = volume of stock solution = 72.0 ml

M_2 = molarity of diluted solution = m

V_2 = volume of diluted solution = 248 ml

1.40\times 72.0=m\times 248

m=0.41M

Now 124 mL portion of this prepared solution is diluted by adding 133 mL of water.

According to the dilution law,

M_1V_1=M_2V_2

where,

M_1 = molarity of stock solution = 0.41 M

V_1 = volume of stock solution = 124 ml

M_2 = molarity of diluted solution = m

V_2 = volume of diluted solution = (124 +133) ml = 257 ml

0.41\times 124=m\times 257

m=0.20M

Thus the final concentration of the solution is 0.20 M.
