Answer:

12 moles of H₂O are formed in this combustion.

Explanation:

First of all, think the reaction:

2CH₃OH (l) + 3O₂ (g) → 2CO₂ (g) + 4H₂O (g)

Ratio in the reactants is 2:3, so 2 mol of methanol need 3 mol of oxygen to react. Then 8 mol of CH₃OH, will need (8.3)/2 = 12 moles of O₂

We have 9 moles of O₂, so this is the limiting reactant.

3 mol of oxygen produce 4 mol of water

Then, 9 mol of oxygen will produce ( 9 .4)/3 = 12 moles

What is the mass of 2.70 ×10^22 molecules of NaOH (Molar mass = 40.0 g/mol)?

Viefleur [7K]

Data:
Molar Mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Solving: According to the Law Avogradro, we have in 1 mole of a substance, 6.02x10²³ atoms/mol or molecules

1 mol -------------------- 6.02*10²³ molecules
y mol -------------------- 2.70*10²² molecules

6.02*10²³y = 0.270*10²³
$y = \frac{0.270*\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!10^{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!23}}{6.02*\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!10^{\diagup\!\!\!\!\!\!23}}$
$\boxed{y \approx 0.04\:mol}$

Solving: Find the mass value now

40 g ----------------- 1 mol of NaOH
x g ------------- 0.04 mol of NaOH

$x = 40*0.04$
$\boxed{\boxed{x = 1.6\:g}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark$

Answer:
The mass is 1.6 grams

a. x and y are atoms of the same element.

If both atoms contain the same amount of protons, they are always the same element.
