Determine the number of moles in 382.5g of CO-2
exis [7]

Answer: 8.691 mols of CO₂

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a given grams, you want to use the molar mass.

Let's first find the molar mass of CO₂.

Carbon's molar mass is 12.011 g/mol

Oxygen's molar mass is 15.999 g/mol

To find molar mass of CO₂, we want to add up the molar mass of carbon and oxygen. Remember, there are 2 Oxygens so we need to mulitply that by 2.

12.011+2(15.999)=44.009 g/mol

Now that we have molar mass, we can convert 382.5 g to mols.

382.5g*\frac{1 mol}{44.009g} =8.691 mol

There are about 8.691 mols of CO₂.

given two equations representing reactions: which type of reaction is represented by each of these equations?
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

Answer:

Equation 1 - nuclear fission

Equation 2 - nuclear fusion

Explanation:

Nuclear fission is a reaction in which a large nucleus is split into smaller nuclei when it is bombarded by neutrons. The process produces more neutrons to continue the chain reaction. This is clearly depicted in equation 1 as shown in the question.

Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two light nuclei combine in order to form a larger nuclei. This is clearly depicted in equation 2 as shown in the question.
