The given question is incomplete. The complete question is as follows.

From the following formula, calculate the quantities required for each of the following ingredients to make 5 lb. (avoir) of hydrophilic ointment. All values to be in g, do not include units in your submitted answer; use no more than 3 decimal places. Convert using 1 lb = 454 g. Note: all values done by mass, including the water, so this is not a q.s situation (volume is irrelevant).

Methylparaben 0.25 g

Propylparaben 0.15 g

Sodium Lauryl Sulfate 10 g

Propylene Glycol 120 g

Stearyl Alcohol 240 g

White Petrolatum 250 g

Purified Water, to make 1000 g

Explanation:

For the given quantities, the sum is 620.4 g. Now, amount of purified water (to make 1000 g of ointment)  is as follows.

             1000 g - 620.4 g

           = 379.6 g

Now, to make 5 lb we will calculate the quantities as follows.

Formula weight = 1000 g

Therefore, desired quantity is as follows.

             5 lb = 5 x 454 g

                     = 2270 g

Hence, this means the factor is  calculated as follows.

       \frac{2270 g}{1000 g}

            = 2.27

Now, we will calculate the quantity of each ingredient using factor 2.27 as follows.

  • Methylparaben = 0.25 g x 2.27 = 0.5675 g
  • Propylparaben = 0.15 g x 2.27 = 0.3405 g
  • Sodium Lauryl Sulfate = 10 g x 2.27 = 22.7 g
  • Propylene Glycol = 120 g x 2.27 = 272.4 g
  • Stearyl Alcohol = 240 g x 2.27 = 544.8 g
  • White Petrolatum = 250 g x 2.27 = 567.5 g
  • Purified Water = 379.6 g x 2.27 = 861.692 g

If 63.8 grams of aluminum metal (Al) react with 72.3 grams of sulfur (S) in a synthesis reaction, how many grams of the excess r
Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

23.2 g of Al will be left over when the reaction is complete

Explanation:

2Al  +  3S  → Al₂S₃

1 mol of Al = 26.98 g

1 mol of S = 32.06 g

Mole = Mass / Molar mass

63.8 g/ 26.98 g/m = 2.36 mole of Al

72.3 g / 32.06 g/m = 2.25 mole of S

2 mole of Aluminun react with 3 mole of sulfur

2.36 mole of Al react with (2.36 .3)/2 = 3.54 m of S

As I have 2.25 mole of S, and I need 3.54 S, is my limiting reagent so the limiting in excess is the Al.

3 mole of S react with 2 mole of Al

2.25 mole of S react with (2.25 m . 2)/3 = 1.50 mole

I need 1.50 mole of Al and I have 2.36, that's why the Al is in excess.

2.36 mole of Al - 1.50 mole of Al = 0.86 mole

This is the quantity of Al without reaction.

Molar mass . mole = Mass →  26.98 g/m . 0.86 m = 23.2 g

How will you recognize that a single replacement reaction has occured when you combine an active metal with 6m hcl?
frez [133]

A single replacement or displacement reaction occurs when one ingredient in a compound replaces another. Only another metal can replace a less active one; a metal can only displace another metal, and a non-metal can only displace another non-metal.

<h3>Displacement reaction:</h3>

The tendency of the element to lose electrons is what makes it metallic. Due to their bigger sizes and propensity to lose electrons as size, the number of shells, and nuclear force of attraction rise, the most active metals are found on the left side of the periodic table.

The reaction in which the more reactive element displaces the less reactive element is known as the displacement reaction.

When we combine an active metal with HCl, the reaction is as follows:

We are taking sodium, Na which is the most active metal. It will replace H in HCl because it is more reactive than H.

                       2Na + 2HCl → 2NaCl + H₂

Three ways to recognize if a single displacement reaction has taken place:

1. Color change

2. Formation of bubbles (a gas)

3. Formation of a precipitate
