Explanation:

the chemical equation needs to be balance so that it follows the law of conservation of mass. a balance chemical equation occurs when the number of the different atoms of elements to the reactants side is equal to that of the product side. balancing chemical equation is a process of trial and error .

9. Using the balanced equation from Question #8, how many grams of lead will be produced if 2.54 grams of PbS is burned with 1.8
MissTica

Answer: 2.24 grams of Pb

Explanation:

<u>Step 1</u>

Balanced chemical reaction;

2PbS + 3O2 → 2Pb + 2SO3

<u>Step 2</u>

Moles of both PbS and O2

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles of PbS = 2.54 g / 239.3 g/mol = 0.0108 moles

Moles of O2 = 1.88 / 32 g/mol = 0.0588 moles

<u>Step 3</u>

Finding the limiting reactant.

Limiting reactant, is that reactant which is completely used in the reaction;

If we assume that PbS is the limiting reactant;

We have 0.0588 moles of O2. This needs ( 0.0588 * 2) / 3 = 0.0392 moles of PbS to fully react. But we have only 0.0108 moles of PbS available. That means that the PbS will be completely consumed hence the limiting reactant

If we assume O2 is the limiting reactant;

We have 0.0108 moles of PbS. That needs ( 0.0108 * 3) / 2 = 0.0162 moles of O2. But we have 0.0588 moles of O2 which is in excess further confirming that PbS is the limiting reactant since it will be depleted in the reaction.

<u>Step 4</u>

Moles of lead

For this step we apply the mole ratios with the limiting reactant;

Mole ratio of PbS : Pb = 2 : 2 = 1 : 1

Therefore;

Moles of Pb = (0.0108 moles  * 1 ) 1

Moles of Pb =0.0108 moles

<u>Step 5</u>

Mass of Pb

Mass = moles * molar mass

Mass of Pb =0.0108 moles * 207.2 g/mol

Mass of Pb = 2.24 grams

Note the formula

\boxed{\sf Mass\:no=No\:of\:protons+No\:of\:neutrons}

For X:-

  • No of protons:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 19-10=9protons

  • It is Fluorine.

For Y:-

  • No of protons:-

\\ \sf\longmapsto 16-8=8protons

  • It is Oxygen.

Option D is correct

Volgvan

Answer:

713.96mmhg

Explanation:

p1v1=p2v2

6.10×1.50/9.74

=0.939atm

=0.939*760

=713.96mmhg

A current of 5. 68 a is passed through a Fe(NO3)2 solution. How long, in hours, would this current have to be applied to plate o
daser333 [38]

There are  1.2 hr would this current have to be applied to plate out 7. 20 g of iron .

Calculation ,

Given ; Current ( I ) = 5. 68 A

In Fe(NO_{3} )_{2} , the valancy of Fe is +2 .

2 moles of e^{-} are required for the decomposition of 1 mole of Fe .

7. 20 g  of Fe in moles  = 7. 20 g /55.845 g/mol =0.12 mole

x moles of  e^{-} are required for the decomposition of 0.128 mole of Fe .

moles of   e^{-} are required = 0.256 moles

Charge on 1 mole  of   e^{-} = 96500 C

Charge on 0.256  mole  of   e^{-} = 24704 C

Current ( I )= Q/t  

t =Q / I = 24704 C/5. 68 A = 4349 sec = 1.2 hr

Therefore , there are  1.2 hr would this current have to be applied to plate out 7. 20 g of iron .
