Calculate the mass of excess reagent remaining at the end of the reaction in which 90.0 g of SO2 are mixed with 100.0 g of O2

We have to first write a balanced equation.
so2 + o2 -> so3

this is not balanced though. we have 3 oxygen on right and 4 on left
2so2 + o2 -> 2so3

now it is same on both sides. we have to figure out which is limiting reagent with the given amounts of reagents. we do this by comparing the ratio between them in terms of moles. we see that so2 has a coefficient of 2 and o2 has none which implies 1 and so3 has 2. this means that for every 2 moles of so2 reacting with 1 mole of o2, we get 2 moles of so3.

lets convert the given values to moles. to do this we know that molecular weight is measured in grams per mole. we are given grams and need to cancel out the grams to get moles. so the molecular weight:
so2 =32.1 + 2 * 16 = 64.1 g/mol
o2 = 2 * 16 = 32 g/mol
so3 = 32.1 + 3 * 16 = 80.1 g/mol

now to convert 90 g of 2so2 under ideal conditions.
90g / 64.1g/mol = 1.404 moles

convert this amount of moles of so2 to moles of o2. we have 2 moles of so2 to 1 of o2
1.404moles so2 / 2 moles so2 * 1 mole o2= 0.702 moles o2

so we see under ideal conditions that 90g of so2 would react with .702g of o2. lets see how many we actually have with 100g of o2
100g / 32g/mol =3.16 mol.

so we have a lot more o2 than needed. we are looking for how much is left in grams. we have to figure out how much was used. to do this convert our ideal moles of o2 into grams.
.702 moles o2 * 32g/mol = 22.5g o2

so what we startrd with (100g) minus what we needed (22.5g) is what we have left
100 - 22.5 = 77.5g o2

An unknown compound has the following chemical formula:
Softa [21]

Answer:

Formula of the compound = P_2O_5

Explanation:

Given,

No. of mole of O = 8.20 mol

No. of mole of P = 3.30 mol

Chemical formula = P_2O_x

Ratio of P and O = \frac{2}{x}

\frac{2}{x} =\frac{3.3}{8.20} \\x \times 3.3 = 8.20 \times 2\\x = \frac{8.20 \times 2}{3.3} \\x=4.9969\\ = 5

formula of the compound = P_2O_5

What is the total mass of Hydrogen in each of the molecules?
frutty [35]

Explanation:

a) In 1 mole of methane there are 4 moles of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of methane = 4 × 1 g = 4 g

b) In 1 mole of chloroform there are 1 mole of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of methane = 1× 1 g = 1 g

c) In 1 mole of C_{12}H_{10}O_{16} there are 10 moles of hydrogen atom

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of C_{12}H_{10}O_{16} = 10 × 1 g = 10 g

d)In 1 mole of CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3 there are 12 moles of hydrogen atom.

CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3=C_5H_{12}

Atomic mass of 1 mole of hydrogen atom = 1 g

Mass of hydrogen in 1 mole of CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2CH_3 = 12 × 1 g = 12 g

Answer questions 2 and 3
nlexa [21]

Answer:

2:a-heterogenous

b-homogenous

c-heterogenous

d-heterogenous with water

3:Filtration is used to separate insoluble particles from a solution

Distillation is used to separate liquids with close but different boiling points e.g water and ethanol

Explanation:

2: homogenous mixtures form a uniform layer meaning that a mixture containing more than one layer is heterogenous

1. Which of the following is NOT a cation?
Bezzdna [24]
Hey Madoudou


The correct answer is option B (sulfate)


The reason is because "Sulfate" has a negative sign.

In order for it to be a cation, it must have positive sign such as "iron(lll)ion


I hope this helps~
