The following reaction produces ethanoic acid (CHACOOH) from methanol (CH3OH) and carbon

tigry1 [53]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{300 g}}$

Explanation:

We will need a balanced chemical equation with masses and molar masses, so, let's gather all the information in one place.

M_r: 32 60

CH₃OH + CO ⟶ CH₃COOH

m/g: 160

(a) Moles of CH₃OH

$\text{Moles of CH$_{3}$OH} = \text{160 g CH$_{3}$OH }\times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$OH }}{\text{32 g CH$_{3}$OH}}= \text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$OH}$

(b) Moles of CH₃COOH

$\text{Moles of CH$_{3}$COOH} = \text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$OH } \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$COOH}}{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$OH }} = \text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$COOH}$

(c) Mass of CH₃COOH

$\text{Mass of CH$_{3}$COOH} =\text{5.00 mol CH$_{3}$COOH} \times \dfrac{\text{60 g CH$_{3}$COOH}}{\text{1 mol CH$_{3}$COOH}} = \textbf{300 g CH$_{3}$COOH}\\\\\text{The maximum mass of ethanoic acid that can be produced is $\boxed{\textbf{300 g}}$}$

Give an example of a balanced force.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

When two forces are the same strength but act in opposite direction, they are called balanced forces. Again, tug-of-war is a perfect example. If the people on each side of the rope are pulling with the same strength, but in the opposite direction, the forces are balanced. The result is no motion.
